I get hella stoned and watch Foodfight! at least once a year. It’s my “favorite” movie.

Everything about it, from the implied beastiality between Charlie Sheen and Hillary Duff, to the weird gay bat, to the shitweasel is a masterclass in what not to do in a movie. It transcends badness and becomes something sublime. The entire plot is about how store brands/generics are Nazis, and one of the Nazis absolutely chews the scenery in a way that makes Brian Blessed look reserved.

    By all accounts The Boondock Saints is a “bad” movie but we all watched it when we were 12 and thought it was fucking awesome and still do.

    Velocipastor is an amazing bad movie that intended to be bad. There’s even a scene where a car explodes and it’s just some text that says “VFX of car exploding”

    It’s about a pastor that can turn into a velociraptor… When there’s gore it’s like obviously fake, like a head rolls off and it’s clear as day that it’s a mannequin head. It’s so bad it’s amazing.

    Oh yeah, and there are ninjas.

    That Speed Racer movie that the Wachowskis made. I’m not gonna pretend it’s underrated, and I’m not gonna try to convince you to like it. They made it for me and me alone.

    Super Mario Bros. 1993. It is by far the movie that puts the biggest “fun” smile on my face, especially when watching it stoned. It’s so goofy in the best way and comes across as funny in a way that makes me have fun with it every time.

      I mentioned Rifftrax in another comment, but the Rifftrax version of this and Street Fighter are two of my favorite things ever.

      the amount of slime in that movie makes it impossible for me to watch stoned. Like, if I got that slimey, while stoned, I would be freaking the fuck out. Great movie though. I still love John Luigi-zamo

    The internet loves to shit on it. I’ve always enjoyed it. It’s a visual/audio treat.

      See I never got that either. There is some kind of story about escapism and dealing with trauma in there, but it’s definitely second fiddle to the fact that you get to see badass ladies with samurai swords running a bunny mech through ww1 trenches and fighting giant samurai with a gatling gun. Sure it’s dumb, but so is Fast and Furious

        It’s a genius retelling of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. It’s also schlocky, pointless, fanservice-y action. It’s dumb and I kind of love it.

      the extended cut is a genuinely compelling narrative on top of the impressive variety of aesthetics & action sequences. folks are welcome to find it cringey and overdone but that’s a matter of taste. it’s a little too porny for me as a grown ass man but i thought it was great fun as a teen, go figure.

      the pg-13 theatrical cut was hot dog water that left the emotional climax of the film on the cutting room floor.

    Probably Kung Pow: Enter the Fist, but honorable mention to Chopping Mall and Primo Baby for being so terrible they’re amusing.

    The Mummy (1999) I believe was panned by critics at release, but I think it’s an absolutely fantastic and humorous adventure film.

    Bubba Ho-Tep. Bruce Campbell is a still-alive Elvis forgotten in a nursing home. He’s got to fight a mummy that’s sucking the souls out of old people’s assholes. Also Black JFK assists. It really shouldn’t work, but it somehow manages to.

    Raw Force (1982)

    Martial arts students visit an island with ghosts of dishonored fighters. They encounter a Hitler lookalike running a female slavery operation, leading to encounters with cannibals, piranhas, zombies, and chaos.

    Absolutely stupid low budget insanity.

        That’s what introduced me to it. I immediately had to track it down and watch the entire thing.

        I’ve discovered a number of my favourite B movies through those guys.

        I also think that Bigfoot vs DB Cooper could be an amazing film if done properly, but its a shame the title has been ruined.

    It’s a tie between: The Adventures of Buckaroo Bonzai Across the 8th Dimension

    See John Lithgow chew the scenery as the villain, plus Jamaicans are the good guy aliens. Classic bad movie, but fun to watch.

    and

    Remo Williams

    It’s terrible, it’s racist and sexist in a 1980s way. But it has Kate Mulgrew and she’s awesome in it.

      My dad and I make a point to watch Buckaroo Banzai at least once a year. Great movie.
