Terrible movies you can't stop watching

Demolition Man! I used to laugh at how they made the country cowtow to Polical correctness........until I saw it happen before my own eyes. talk about life following fiction, before too long we'll have a hall of violence being the only place you can even see a gun if Obama and Pelosy hold sway.

At least we still don't have to use sea shells to wipe our asses yet, and I hope that that whole Japanese robe thing doesn't catch on either.........if so i'll be joining Mr friendly in the sewers.

Live and Die in LA

Saving Silverman.

death race 2000.... absolutely awful, but thats what made it so great... just like most of Caradines movies... I actually have it on VHS....left us with classic lines like "euthanasia day at the rest home..." and helped catapult Stallone into stardom...

+1 for Army of Darkness...that movie has kept me from finishing homework on time like 45947534 times lolz

I can't help myself, I liked TREMORS. But as cheesey as the original was, they made a really mediocre thing a 1000X worse with sequels and even a (very) short lived tv series.

Evil Dead 3, definitely. Oh and Snakes on a Plane, the ultimate best worst movie.

+1 for Demolition Man, Army of Darkness and Mad Max (though I don't believe its a bad movie)

I'll add that I have a soft spot for Maverick and Dodgeball.

snakes on a plane..

But that's not a bad movie. It's more like the best movie ever made.

This, is my boom-stick!

How about Under Siege 2, a.k.a. Die Hard on a Train? I had trouble turning off that one.

Yeah, be careful that this doesn't turn into a list of "good movies that actually rule except maybe girls don't like them."

Predator, Army of Darkness and To Live and Die in LA have no business on a list of "bad" movies, unless the word after "bad" is "motherberkeleyer."

^^^^ What he said. I'd add Buckaroo Bonzai and Tremors to that list.

Not sure about Black Rain, however. I mean, you knew that his partner wasn't going to make it to the closing credits.

Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead. ("Dishes are DONE.") Shakes the Clown (my favoritest bad movie ever). Ice Castles. (Shut up--you knew I was a girl going into this discussion.)

A subset of this discussion could be "movies that are so bad you just can't watch them no matter how hard you try"....one that comes to mind is Stayin' Alive, the sequel to Saturday Night Fever - it's been on TV several times and I tried to watch, but only made it about five minutes before I had to turn it off. It was really bad.

I would definitely pluck Red Dawn from this list and put it in the list of movies that are actually completely awesome in every way.

WOLVERINES!

Real Genius

Tokyo Drift is my kryptonite. I own it on DVD.

Cone Heads, Fast And The Furious, The Love Guru

OMG, best... movie... EVAR!

MIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Speaking of movies that you can't turn off, Terminator 2 is on TV again--so we have to watch it again. My wife just brought up a good point. Both Terminators land at night, right? So why does it take the T-1000 until the next day to show up at John Connor's house? Wouldn't he have just gone there and terminated him right away? It's not like he needed to sleep or get directions.

short circut... it has guttenburg

I love Gone In 60 Seconds the remake, i must have seen it 237 times.

in all fairness, Le Mans (with Mr. McQueen) was a TERRIBLE movie, but a GREAT car movie, and another one I must have seen hundreds of times.

Crank is awesome.

it is a great movie, but I can't stop watching Snatch.

oh, and I will be purchasing Death Race when it comes out on DVD, I saw it opening night, and it Rocked my world...but was terrible at the same time.

The Replacements

Practical Magic (it's a chick flick)

Well, if you consider T3 to be a legit continuation of the Terminator mythology then John Connor wasn't at his house that night. He was in John Krupke's basement macking on Claire Danes.

Oh, and +1 for The Replacements.

The Replacements features Gene Hackman, therefore, by definition, it cannot be considered a bad movie.
