The List of Adrian Messinger
The Seven Faces of Dr Lao
Household Saints
Flatliners
Green for Danger (although I’ve only seen it once, wish I had a copy)
The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby (8 hour RSC version, not sure if it qualifies)
The Stunt Man
The Name of the Rose
Odd Man Out
Altered States
I glanced at some of the choices and was thinking that I’ve been about to write an OP about movies you know arecrap, but still like, enjoy and are proud to tell the world about (as opposed to so called guilty pleasures*).
Somehow, this thread kinda merges with that idea. I’ll list some crappy movies I enjoy, and others that I think have been unjustly forgotten:
Wild Things (crappy)
My favorite year (forgotten)
Notting Hill (crappy)
The year of living dangerously (forgotten)
Body Double (crappy)
Body Heat (forgotten)
Doc Hollywood (crappy)
Cube (forgotten)
Road House** (crappy)
Animal House (forgotten)
*It’s one thing to admit a guilty pleasure on a MB, another to stand in a room full of HS students in 2008 and explain why BtVS was one of the best things that ever happened to TV.
**Road House is just awful. It’s the awfulness that makes it so great. It’s the anitmatter of normal crappy cinema. It’s so bad, it hits you coming from the other side and makes you want more of the same crappiness. I wouldn’t’ve been surprised to see a producer cred going to someone from the Dibbler family
