Post subject: SCHLOCK !

In the spirit of the best movie of all time thread here is my list of absolutely terrible movies that I LOVE anwyays...

The Dark Crystal - A maudlin and nonsensical movie that I can't seem to stop watching.

The Black Hole - It's been a long time since I saw it but I remember it was awful and overacted. But I was just a kid and thought it SO cool....

The Warriors - Not such a bad movie really, but it's gangs are laughable. The baseball furies are the best thing ever.

Mad Max Series - Culminating in "Beyond Thunderdome" A cavalcade of cheese but strangely compelling.

Better Off Dead - Pure 80's indulgence but its "Two Dollars!" refrain sticks. John Cusac hasn't really changed at all.

Beastmaster - A real stinker! This might just be the worst movie I've ever seen. About a guy that can talk to and control birds and animals. It's really bad... and really funny.

Big Trouble in Little China - The only movie I've ever liked Kurt Russel in. It beats his performance in "Escape from New York" by miles. This is my favorite bad movie of all time.

View to a Kill - It's not the worst Bond movie by any stretch but it's still the tackiest. And it features villians Grace Jones (??!!) an insane Christopher Walken, jumping off the Eiffel Tower and a soundtrack by Duran Duran. And through it all we have an old, pervy Roger Moore sleazing his way around Europe. Magic!

Honorable Mention: John Hughes' entire output, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Conan the Barbarian (Series)
