It took me years to work up the courage to watch The Trip (1967), but I guarantee I’ll see it again. Maybe.
I mean, the colors! Wow! I can taste them! And the music! It smells so groovy! And Peter Fonda’s acting is so, so… Wooden. Liquid wooden. Orange electric liquid wooden, man. And Jack Nicholson’s script is like, wow, like, so not like what “the establishment” would call an “acceptable” script.
The severed bloody infant hand was pretty cool.
Some relatively big-budget jaw-droppers:
Reflections in a Golden Eye --Brando has made a few turkeys in his career, and so has Elizabeth Taylor. Put them together and you get possibly the most unintentionally hilarious film of all time!
Mandingo --Offensive on more levels than you can imagine, but I dare you to turn away once it gets going!
The Fountainhead --Just begs to be remade by Kevin Costner!
Moment by Moment --Lily Tomlin (!) as a middle-aged rich woman and John Travolta as her hired stud. WOW! Hard to find, but worth the effort!
Flash Gordon From hot hail to bore worms this movie was a laugh fest.
Contianing the greatest wedding vows ever;
Priest: “Do you take this woman to be your empress of the hour?”
Ming: “Of the hour? Yes”
Priest: “To use her as you will?”
Ming: “Certainly”
Priest: “Not to blast her into space?”
Ming furrows brow
Priest: “Until such time as you grow weary of her.”
I had the same thought. If this scene had happened, it would have been the best bad movie ever. I think the mere suggestion of a make out session was horrendous enough. Truly a terrifically bad movie.
Warrior of the Lost World, starring Robert (“The Exterminator”) Ginty, the Indian chick who played Ilia in the first Star Trek film (she has hair in this one), Donald Pleasance IIRC, some freaks they found in the desert who had obviously failed the audition for Rocky Horror Picture Show AND the Road Warrior, and a computer-controlled motorcycle whose UI was stolen from the Atari 2600 version of the game Star Raiders. I can’t tell you how many times I rented it and forced innocent friends to sit through it back in the day.
The companion film to Plan Nine, Bride of the Monster.
Sample Dialogue:
Janet Lawton: When did I tell you my name?
Dr. Eric Vornoff (BelaLugosi): You didn’t. But since you were unconscious, I took the liberty of looking into your purse.
Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man.
Actually pretty entertaining, particularly when you consider it starts the excerable Don Johnson and Mickey Rourke.

Hudson Hawke. It was really bad, but I still thought it was fun.
Dang, this sounds like some of the Clive Cussler novels, which just got more and more ridiculous until I finally quit reading them!
Please tell me that the central character did go head-to-head with the screenwriter in this movie or show him his classic car collection.
Best part of the movie…hands down = Megaweapon. I want one. And I want a really annoying motorcycle that yells its name constantly to announce it when I take it out of the garage.
Dude, have you seen Basket Case 3? That falls into the “so bad its bad” category.
Bette Davis’s performance in Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte is so over the top that it opens a wormhole and becomes so awful it’s great.
“And y’all wanna know what’s in this heah box? His ha-n-n-n-n-n-n-d!”
Oh, CRAP!!!
I just don’t believe it. I can not believe this. I am sooooo embarrassed.
Hey, wait a minute. Maybe I should not go to a monastery and flagellate myself…
I just realized that I recognized a Clive Cussler tale without even realizing it.
No, wait again…if I’m that far gone, then maybe I really am beyond help…
…know what? The heck with it, and the horse it rode in on! There!
In my book, Joan Chen is the queen of quality cheese.
The aforementioed Blood of Heroes, as a post-apocalyptic rugby player with Rutger Hauer.
Wedlock (also titled Deadlock), also with Rutger Hauer.
The Hunted, with Christopher Lambert, where she plays a Chinese/Japanese prostitute whose death inspires Lambert to take on the dreaded ninja clans of downtown Tokyo.
Wild Side, with Christopher Walken. Watchable for one reason only: Joan getting it on with the then-unknown Anne Heche.
The friend I watched this with said it should have been made by Kraft - 'cause it’s the cheeziest! 
“Monster Dog” AKA “Leviathan” c1986
Yep, it’s a MONSTER dog, all right… whee, it’s bad!
The thing was made in Spain but set in the States. What premise it has involves a band going to the singer’s ancestral home to record a video. When they get there, they discover that the weird animal killings - and people - have started again…
It looks like wolves.
Ya’all know it’s a werewolf movie, right? :rolleyes: A really BAD werewolf move.
As an example of just how bad this puppy is, the producers made it in English. Then they decided to redo it in Spanish. So they TAPED OVER the master soundtrack, to save a few bucks. Then they went back to English. Instead of getting the orginal actors to do the dubbing, they got a totally different set of ESL students to do it. :eek: The only thing left that’s got the real voices is the two songs from the “videos”.
The worst part?
It stars Alice Cooper. With short hair. Oh, the shame… 
I recently saw for the first time Zardoz, a movie in which Sean Connery plays a primative in the future who makes his way into an enclosed “paradise” where the men are no longer able to sexually function, and no one dies. Bizarreness ensues.
You have just reminded me of razorback - beware the GIANT PIG! But it’s not nearly as scary as the endless series of cliches and stock characters…
I’m a fan of the big orange diaper Sean Connery wears in that film. What is it with SC and weird costumes, anyway? Like The Avengers and his…teddy bear (iirc)…costume? Hm. Actually, The Avengers also qualifies for this thread, I believe. Bizarre, not good at all, but somehow fairly entertaining…
Obviously my taste in bad movies is…odd. But I’d like to submit Earth Girls Are Easy and Jaws 2 & 3 . The premise for all of the above movies were ridiculous. But I couldn’t turn the channel!
