My go-to movie of this sort is **Southland Tales**. Here is an earlier thread on it: [holy crap, "Southland Tales"](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/holy-crap-southland-tales/442476). I will note that **lissener** in that thread said

> It’s one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen, but I just couldn’t look away.

Which sums it up pretty well. My ranking for this film, on a scale from 1 to 10, is _mauve_ or maybe _plaid_.
