Apparently mine is The Long Kiss Goodnight.
I love it. My family hates it.
Good movie. I reference the “Chefs do that.” line a whole lot. My wife was disappointed when she learned where it came from.
Yessum miss daisy. I be honkin’
Your family needs help. That’s a classic.
Sleepwalkers
Same era
Over 20 years between them.
Same genre
Year One is fucking hilarious!
Moonfall.
I just watched this for the first time about 3 months ago and it became my spouse’s absolute favourite for those 3 months. It honestly feels like it should have been a videogame. The Musk praise is so fucking funny given the current state of the US, the premise makes less than no sense, but it’s just so freaking good.

Geostorm! Pacific Rim 2!

I get that the Venn diagram of people who want to watch a robot/monster punch-out movie and viscerally hate three concept of a teen and/or female protagonist is so very close to being a circle, but I actually love every bit of that movie and I’m genuinely upset that the characters are what everyone wanted to talk about there. Charlie getting high off monster brain and turning out to be evil? The secret monster brains in all the robots? The idea that controlablility correlates to mass? There’s so much to work with here! The only negative mark I give it is for the lack of Ron Pearlman.
GEEEEEOOOSTOORM!
RV with Robin Williams came out at a good age for me, I was like 12 so poop jokes and mean spirited jokes that the movie is full of clicked with me.
I saw a YouTube video about crappy movies and they had Congo on there, I had such a visceral reaction to seeing it on that list. Congo is one of my favourite movies ever, i can recite every line of that movie, from Tim curry to Earnie Hudson to Joey pants, I will die on the hill that Congo is a great movie
Congo was part of the wave of creature feature movies that followed Jurassic Park.
Anaconda, Lake Placid, etc. All chasing a high they had no chance of ever reaching. They’re all a bit shit, but I can’t help have some nostalgia for them.
The biggest issue with Congo is that it was advertised with the Jurassic park name attached to it. “FROM THE WRITER OF JURASSIC PARK!” so it was always gonna be a let down compared to Jurassic park. They didn’t let it stand on its own
Star Wars: Attack of the Clones
There’s a somewhat obscure Robin Williams vehicle called Club Paradise. Critics panned it but it’s a favorite in my family, we quote it all the time.

Mars Needs Moms, no idea why, I like it against my will. I have a friend that’s hyperfixating on The Electric State, which got something like a 14% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Morbius is so fucking trash that I kinda love it
Honestly, I don’t really get it. I watched it long after the hate hype had died down. I was prepared for completely awful. I got just sorta bad to OK.
I think that’s what makes it so hateable is that it’s not 100% incompetent, it’s just a lot of poor decisions leading to a confused and boring as hell movie.
Fool’s Gold. It’s so bad, but gets me in the feels.
Unironically a top-5 movie for me. It’s bad, but it’s also everything I want from a movie.
Pushing Tin
Fuck yes! One of the first and few dvds I had. Watched the fuck outta that bad boy so many times. There’s a cool music video that’s like the same plot, lemme try and find it
I think of this movie every time I see a guillotine paper cutter.
I seriously doubt that it would count as ‘shittty’, but it wasn’t very well received and is not widely known either, for me rather a kind of comfort movie I’ll defend till the edges of the earth: the Cohen brothers’ ‘A Serious Man’
I’m just going to drop selections from the Troma catalog in here:
These are objectively shitty movies. Most of these movies are irredeemable; hell, some of them are down right an exercise in poor taste. A lot of it hasn’t aged well, and I’m not talking about the cinematography. I haven’t kept up with Troma in the 21st century, though, so maybe Troma has gotten worse-better or better-worse?
However, I find joy in these movies because they are like a time warp back to New Jersey and New York in the 80s and 90s. They were so low budget and always filmed around New York (except for Toxic Avenger II which somehow was filmed in Japan), that they used a lot of family members of the cast and crew or random locals as extras. It is obvious that a lot of people on screen probably didn’t know they were being filmed (or if they did, didn’t realize what type of movie they were in). There’s bad hair and makeup (but not from the effects department), and thick accents and regionalisms that have faded. There are mainstreets and skylines that don’t exist anymore, or if they do, are wildly different. It is amazing to catch a glimpse of an era that doesn’t exist anymore. This exists in all old movies, but the low-budget realness hits differently.
Most of these movies are trash, but they’re my trash. Apologies to Mr. Kaufman.
Empire Records.
I make references from that movie all the time and nobody ever gets it. Doesn’t stop me.
Did you know Angels in the Outfield has a 31% on rottentomatoes? I’m scared to watch it again because I remember it as a perfect movie.
Like? Yes, defend? Nahhh
Ay lav yu.
It’s a pretty funny romantic comedy if you ignore the romance.
It used to be Bad Santa, then it got rehabilitated somehow.
Starcrash.
The dude playing the emperor was phenomenal, and the effects team were competent as fuck even if the suits couldn’t make a damn choice and stick with it. Plus it has the Hoff.
Dirty Grandpa. The critics who didn’t like it should be thrown into a river.
Aubery Plaza legit wanted to fuck Robert De Niro and it shows.
Jackass: Bad Grandpa is better than it deserves to be. They should actually do more like that.

You people don’t KNOW delicious camp tripe.

Lady in the Water
It’s a fantastic fairy tale.
The English first Digimon movie. Well, I won’t defend it. But I will quote and reference it probably more than any other movie. I think it’s been a couple days since I’ve done that though.
Just re-watched this for the first time as an adult last night and my gods is it a movie of it’s time. Spouse and I died every time music came on. The dialogue sounds like they were ad-libing all the way through, also why was this a movie? It feels like two season finale episodes crammed together with some filler and explosion.
That said, I loved it and it said so much about my childhood that my favorite movie as a kid suffers from equally unchecked ADHD.
What a coincidence. Ahdh is my grandsons’ names. They’re here right now. I’d like to talk to them too. Hangs up on you
Three movies in a trench coat? Hell yeah, brother
But all of them, especially the first, being cut short to make it fit into a reasonable movie length! Surely nothing important was lost that can’t be glossed over by playing some song added to try to sell soundtracks.
Kalo. A low budget horror movie, available on YouTube for free.
The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen. Peak Gilliam, and always a joy to watch. Wish I could find a higher resolution version.

I knew a guy who swore that Garbage Pail Kids The Movie was a goddamned masterpiece of cinema.
I can only watch it in 15 minute stints before the nausea takes effect.

The 1900 hotdog episode on it is great, I just listened
