I love them but I dont bother lending them to people because I know they'll throw them back at me! :D
Deep Rising - "NOW what?!!!!")
Romy & Michele's High School Reunion - "Tuson here we come!"
Showgirls - "I'm erect, why aren't you erect?"
April Fool's Day - "Muffy has a twin sister called Buffy?!"
basically, anything cheesy or camp and I'm sure to be a fan! :D
The Dentist
Shopping
Immortality (Wisdom of Crocodiles) Jude Law...oh baby :D
The Swarm
Sleepaway Camp
Bloodsucking Freaks
Hercules in New York
Romance
Angel Heart
White Men Can't Jump
Umbrellas Of Cherbourg
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1 & 2, purely for nostalgic reasons.
Henry and June.:norty: ;)
The saint with Val Kilmer
Jp1,2,3
Gross point blank
ghostbusters 1 + 2
CHUCK NORRIS!!
My new guilty pleasure is Stallone's D-Tox. It's full of great corny dialogue, characters who literally have no place in the film and say nothing and to cap it all the first 20 minutes ain't half bad, throw in some over the top gore and a short running time and it's something I'll defend even though it really ain't that great
oh I forgot one!
the Britney Spears opus Crossroads :D
worth it just for her piano-side rendition of "Not a girl blah blah blah" that sounds like she's gargling sperm! :eek:
It's class I tell u! :o

Oh no - I couldn't believe how bad that was! I've mentioned it before, but Jude Law's flat (in Denmark Hill) in the movie was occupied by none other than McD when they filmed it. They were filming day and night for about five days and all for less than two mins screen time. I never saw Jude Law, although I'm not sure he was famous at the time (November 1997).
It's just occurred to me that both Kerry Fox and Timothy Spall are in that film too. They shouldn't be allowed to work together anymore - Intimacy was also crap.
Sphere is my guiltiest pleasure. A post production miracle, marred by plot holes, some awful dialogue, and Dustin Hoffman trying to win the title of worst performance of all time. Liev Schrieber is almost as bad. And yet the good stuff still shines through.

Really? :D You HAVE to tell me more about it some time! Seriously!
Any British sex comedy of the seventies, with the exception of Martin Campbell's "Eskimo Nell" which is actually pretty good.
However, "Confessions of A Driving Instructor" is my favourite because it's so utterly ludicrous on every possible level.
I also love most TV Sitcom spin-offs, especially "Are You Being Served" and the truly terrible "Love Thy Neighbour", which is fascinating in its attempts to be both racist and right-on at the same time.
Coyote Ugly
Pearl Harbor
Armageddon
Serendipity
Plan Nine From Outer Space
Prison Ship Star Slammer
Sorority Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-A-Rama
Bloodfeast
Astro Zombies
Galaxy of Terror (Erin Moran's exploding head, Classic)
I could go on forever, I truly love really bad movies.:rocker:
