With the exception of Michelle Yeoh, of course.
True, true. Well played.
My point stands, however wobbly it is.
And, for the record, Superman II is right up there. I’d actually any of the Superman’s are up there. II is notoriously doog though.
Well, I guess I could add Idle Hands, & second Overboard, as truly fun movies. But if “doog” implies some kind of fascinating failure, they don’t qualify. They’re meant to be that way.
On the other hand, I thought Stargate & Striking Distance were pretty *good *movies. Though maybe the latter has to grow on you.
Now, Tango & Cash, Son-in-Law, & Strange Brew–those are classics! Some of the greatest (cheesy) movies of all time!
Point.
“Valley Girl”: like, ohmigod, great New Wave muzak and a very young Nicholas Cage.
Apparently Nicky has had some plastic surgery since 1983. He wasn’t very doog-looking in VG.
You want “doog”? I got your “doog” right here:[ul]
[li]Reflections in a Golden Eye–Brando as a repressed homosexual Army officer, Liz Taylor as his slutty wife, and Julie Harris as the next-door neighbor who cut off her nipples with garden shears in a fit of post-partum depression. Need I go on?[/li][li]Mandingo: Offensive on more levels than you can imagine, but I dare you to turn away once it gets going. A certified jaw-dropper![/li][/ul] Try these the next time you’re bored !
No votes yet for The Horror of Party Beach? Never mind the MST3K version, though it’s superb; this one is a hoot even without the robots.
Modesty Blaise. I enjoy the books and the original cartoon strip, but the movie is just a joke. If you like the Austin Powers movies, see this to better appreciate what they were making fun of. Keep looking past the people to catch the garish 60s art, furniture and tableware that clutter nearly every scene.
Creature from the Haunted Sea. Actually most of Roger Corman’s output could go in this category, but especially this one. About 15 minutes into it is the only car chase I’ve ever watched with my mouth hanging open; it is, literally, impossible to believe. Nor is any of the rest of it any better.
Oh definitely. Hugh Jackman has the most marvelous look of “something has gone terribly, terribly wrong here…” in every single scene.
My roommates and I love to talk about how we’e “never seen da sea” in wistful tones.
Not exactly true, actually. The fourth one was used as a smoke outlet for the kitchen. In an overhead shot, you can see that it’s partially obstructed.
Serial Mom. I’d probably buy the DVD if it wasn’t so embarrassing.
::sniffle::
It’s like my baby is all grown up now. I never thought I’d see the day that I’d join Opal, Wildest Bill, and Og.
How about Cabin Boy, Chris Elliot’s tribute to Captains Corageous et al. Cheesy special effects, hokey dialog, but it makes me laugh.
The Wizard.
“I love the power glove, it’s so bad!”
It’s a movie about Nintendo! Rad!
For a fourth time in this thread, I would like to commend Van Helsing. (I was about to post it before looking, but I’m glad i searched). Thoroughly terrible in most every way, contrived, way over the top, but, somehow, quite entertaining. In fact, I would even say that even though I flame the scenes as they are taking place on the screen in front of me, that I enjoy watching this movie…it’s just good fun!
I saw that when it forst made the rounds of cable TV movie channels in the '70s. Loved it! And you are absolutely right, except that Stephen King really is a Rube (he played the same character in the original miniseries of The Stand, just as badly.)
I think that was the first time Romero and King worked together, something King had wanted to do since he first saw Night Of The Living Dead.
Berry Gordy’s The Last Dragon .
The “Sum Dum Goy” fortune cookie factory makes me giggle every single time.

Sho Nuff is probably the greatest “villian” of all time. “Kiss my Converse!” The soundtrack is also phenomenally doog, especially the one Vanity sings in the super-hip nightclub and the one at the end: “You’ve got to have the glow (the glow!)” In fact, why am I not watching this right now? Oh yes. It’s cause I’m at work. Bruce Leroy will have to wait until 5.
I kinda like Joe Vs The Volcano
Has anyone mentioned “Buckaroo Bonzai - Across the 8th Dimension”?
Also - “Down With Love” but only for the costumes and sets
that reminds me - ** Psycho Beach Party **
since Point Break and Road House were already mentioned, in keeping with the Swayze theme: Next of Kin
also, let’s not forget the Sandra Bullock-driven The Net and, with Keanu, Speed.
