HILARIOUS BAD MOVIE MASTERPIECES
Howdy doody dear reader, it is I Dr-Faustus breaking the fourth wall so as to speak to you directly about an important topic.
You know, and I'm sure many of you have experienced this, you get bad movies that are made to be intentionally bad, and you know it is obviously so, but, then you get bad movies that are just... well... so bad that they defy all forms of rationale or explanation. An enigma, or a conundrum, if you will. Some of these unintentionally bad movies are so bad that no amount of research can explain how it is even possible to make such bad movies. Unfortunately because Sigmund Freud died a number of years ago, we may never-ever-ever-ever know the how and why of this strange phenomena affecting so many good people around the world. My theory though, is that these super-bad movies may actually be movie masterpieces, and it can only take a genius, or geniuses, to make such movies and therefor takes a genius to understand them, which kinda excludes me from that elite bunch of know-it-alls. Even though I do like to think of myself as somewhat of a genius sometimes, the missus always quickly puts that illusion to rest... Anyway, forget about all this silly rambling, here is a list of "Hilarious Bad Movie Masterpieces" accompanied by comments that I hope you'll enjoy and savor.
Anyway, thanks folks for your undivided attention in regards to this very serious matter.

- 34 titles
- DirectorLouis J. GasnierStarsDorothy ShortKenneth CraigLillian MilesCautionary tale that features a fictionalized take on marijuana use. A trio of drug dealers lead innocent teenagers to become addicted to "reefer" cigarettes by holding wild parties with jazz music.WHAT! DRUG DEALERS THAT HOST WILD PARTIES WITH JAZZ MUSIC????!!!!!... That's it! I'm in!
- DirectorJoseph SargentStarsLorraine GaryLance GuestMario Van PeeblesChief Brody's widow believes that her family is deliberately being targeted by another shark in search of revenge.The only revenge on display here is the revenge the filmmakers decided to inflict on the poor sucker who actually spent his (or her) hard-earned money on this piece of cr*p... like myself.
- DirectorHarry EssexStarsPier AngeliKerwin MathewsJeff MorrowA team of researchers discovers a strange mutation of man and octopus who proceeds to terrorize them.Hang on a second? Why does this octopus-man mutant only have 7 appendages? Octa stands for 8. Maybe they should have called him Septaman instead? Or maybe Septicman, which has nice ring to it. Don't you think?
Tagline: "Sci-Fi...Alien or Mutation...Man or Reptile..." Reptile? That's strange, I always thought an octopus belonged to the animal group invertebrates, not reptiles? But I guess the filmmakers cannot possibly be wrong about this, can they? - seeing that they obviously did a massive amount of scientific-research in creating the anatomically-correct "Octaman", and all.
*Personal note: That reminds me, I mustn't forget to remind the missus not to forget to cook her delicious, mouth-watering "surf and turf" dish as was planned for tonight. That is; calamari-rings with a medium-to-rare grilled-steak plus, with a decent helping of fries on the side, of course. Yummy! - DirectorBrad F. GrinterStarsVeronica LakePhil PhilbinDoug FosterA ring of Nazis in Florida are in possession of the body of Adolf Hitler, and plan to revive him so they can take over the world.Hang on a second? Florida? Could it be Mar-a-Lago? Has Donald Trump got something to do with this?... Now I'm really scared.
- DirectorDavid BradleyStarsAudrey CaireWalter StockerCarlos RivasNazi madmen preserve Hitler's brain on a small tropical island until the time is right to resurrect him and, along with him, the Third Reich.Uh oh! The plot sickens.
- DirectorsJason FriedbergAaron SeltzerStarsSean MaguireKevin SorboCarmen ElectraA spoof of 300 (2006) and many other movies, TV series/shows/commercials, video games and celebrities. King Leonidas of Sparta and his army of 12 go to war against Xerxes of Persia to fight to the death for Sparta's freedom.Meet the Spartans? No thanks, but thanks for the invitation anyway.
- DirectorRoger ChristianStarsJohn TravoltaForest WhitakerBarry PepperIt's the year 3000 A.D., and the Earth is lost to the alien race of Psychlos. Humanity is enslaved by these gold-thirsty tyrants, who are unaware that their 'man-animals' are about to ignite the rebellion of a lifetime.Phew! Thank goodness I won't be alive in the year 3000 A.D. And if I was, I'd probably die of laughter at the mere sight of the mean-spirited Psychlos anyway... come to think of it, their platform boots are super-cool though.
*Personal note: Hmmm, maybe those boots are selling at a discounted price on Amazon? I'll look into that after I've completed this list and if reasonably priced may buy a pair for myself and the missus. - DirectorEdward D. Wood Jr.StarsGregory WalcottTom KeeneMona McKinnonEvil aliens attack Earth and set their terrible "Plan 9" into action. As the aliens resurrect the dead of the Earth, the lives of the living are in danger.I knew it! I always knew it! Here's the proof! Aliens are just as dumb-ass as humans.
- DirectorRoger VadimStarsJane FondaJohn Phillip LawAnita PallenbergIn the 41st century, an astronaut seeks to stop an evil scientist who threatens to unleash a powerful weapon upon the galaxy, partaking in sexy misadventures along the way.Yahoo! The scantily clad Jane Fonda saves the day (and the movie).
- DirectorsDon BartonArnold StevensStarsMarshall GrauerWade PopwellPaul GallowayA mad scientist transforms himself into an aquatic killer.Why the hell would a mad scientist decide to transform himself into a mutant catfish? I don't get it?... Wait, hang on a second dear reader, I'll get back to you after I've read the whole storyline... Ah ha! The storyline says "to kidnap nubile young women to similarly transform so that he can breed." Now I get it! Can someone please be so kind as to send me the mad scientist's phone number, I have a few things I need to discuss with him... That is... uhmmm... private things of a purely scientific-nature, of course.
- DirectorColeman FrancisStarsDouglas MellorBarbara FrancisBing StaffordA defecting Soviet scientist is hit by a nuclear explosion near Yucca Flats and roams around as a beast.I'm telling you folks, I have a gut-feeling about this one. I'm sure the Soviet scientist is non-other-than our beloved genocidal maniac Vladimir Putin. The guy presently sitting in the Kremlin is a clone. I just know it, I just know it.
- DirectorsJason FriedbergAaron SeltzerStarsCarmen ElectraVanessa LacheyNicole ParkerOver the course of one evening, an unsuspecting group of twenty-somethings find themselves bombarded by a series of natural disasters and catastrophic events.The title is absolutely spot-on, this movie is an absolute disaster.
- DirectorJuan Piquer SimónStarsMichael Garfield LevineKim TerryPhilip MacHaleKiller slugs on the rampage in a rural community.Look here folks, I'm an open-minded kind of guy, and all. Raging carnivorous dinosaurs can be intimidating, crazy revenge-seeking sharks can be intimidating, rabies infected sharp-fanged bats can be intimidating, swarms of killer-bees on a mission to wipe-out mankind can be intimidating. Hell, even flying-nuns teaching the Gospel can be somewhat intimidating. But slugs? Really? The only time a slug can be intimidating is when you're walking barefoot and you accidentally squish one between your toes. What the heck were the filmmakers thinking? Sorry, but I could slug them you know (that's metaphorically speaking, of course).
- DirectorPitofStarsHalle BerrySharon StoneBenjamin BrattA shy woman, endowed with the speed, reflexes, and senses of a cat, walks a thin line between criminal and hero, even as a detective doggedly pursues her, fascinated by both of her personas.Please whatever you do, don't let this pussy-cat out of the bag.
- DirectorTom HooperStarsJames CordenJudi DenchJason DeruloA tribe of cats called the Jellicles must decide yearly which one will ascend to the Heaviside Layer and come back to a new Jellicle life.Gives a whole new meaning to the idiom 'Look What the Cat(s) Dragged in'.
- DirectorBo WelchStarsMike MyersSpencer BreslinDakota FanningTwo bored children have their lives turned upside down when a talking cat comes to visit them.Damnit man! I just can't take it anymore! Please, oh please have mercy on me, please put that darn cat back in the hat, where he belongs! He creeps me out man!
- DirectorVic SavageStarsVic SavageShannon O'NeilWilliam ThourlbyA newlywed sheriff tries to stop a shambling monster that has emerged from a spaceship to eat the citizens of an American town.Are you actually telling me a highly advanced alien life-form in a highly-advanced spaceship actually flew millions of light-years to land on Earth simply to dine on some humans in a small American town? This alien is obviously one of those snobs, like here on Earth, that like to show off to others on social-media of all the exotic food he (or she) has eaten that others have not or, do not have access to. Yet more proof aliens are just as dumb-ass as humans (Please refer to number 8 on this list to confirm this confirmation).
- DirectorOlatunde OsunsanmiStarsMichelle YeohOmari HardwickSam RichardsonIn Star Trek: Section 31, Emperor Philippa Georgiou joins a secret division of Starfleet tasked with protecting the United Federation of Planets, and must face the sins of her past.Good golly miss molly! Forget about Section 31, watching this drivel will guarantee you will end up as a Section 8.
- DirectorMarc WebbStarsRachel ZeglerEmilia FaucherGal GadotA princess joins forces with seven dwarfs and a group of rebels to liberate her kingdom from her cruel stepmother the Evil Queen.WOW! Yes folks, "Snow White" can only be viewed as nothing short of a masterful, awe-inspiring, cinematic achievement! Bravo Disney! The ability to take a beloved classic, that needed only to be told in a traditional manner, and then f... mucking-it-up, big-time, can only be construed as the the work of pure unadulterated genius. How the filmmakers managed to pull this off will be, without-a-doubt, discussed and analyzed by film-students and film-professors for many years to come. Where's the magic? Where's the charm? And where's the common-sense? And what the hell happened to the poor dwarfs, man!? Were they maybe infected with a nasty body-deforming type virus only found in their place of employment, in the dark and damp recesses of caves while mining for gems? Who was the genius that decided to replace what should've been physically-rendered roles for badly-rendered CGI (Computer-Generated-Idiocy)? Do the filmmakers not understand what the term "Live-Action" means? Jeez! Why not simply make an animated remake of the original classic instead, instead of giving us a head-spinning, disorientating, non-symbiotic mixture of two filmmaking techniques that simply does not gel in this film? And not to mention the so-called 'Evil Queen'? Geesh! I've had 2-second stares from the missus that's a 1000 times more menacing than Gal Gadot's entire performance in this movie. Thanks Disney, thanks a helluva lot in managing to obliterate years and years of fond childhood memories of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" in one fell swoop. Can somebody please be so kind as to hand me a poisoned-apple so that I can go into a deep sleep, so as to be awakened at a later date (preferably by a kiss from the missus instead of the prerequisite bucket of ice-cold water thrown in the face) and realize this latest rendition of "Snow White" was just a traumatic nightmare all along... Oh, the horror... the horror.
*Personal note: I wonder? Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but could it be Disney is taking revenge on me for making a big scene in refusing to pay for their exorbitantly-priced snacks at one of their kiosks the last time I visited Disneyland? I'm kinda certain the whole unsavory episode must've been captured on CCTV. I think it may be best for me to stay away from there for a while, and lay low until the heat cools down and all. - DirectorDavid CharhonStarsJean-Claude Van DammeMichaël YounNawell MadaniSerge holds a state secret. He, his family and gardener Leo appear on a government death list. They attempt to devise a plan to stay alive.You know folks, if this movie was purely about Leo gardening, you know, how to plant turnips and cabbages and how to pick weeds without leaving those pesky roots still in the ground and causing the weeds to come back twice as big and twice as nasty in a day or two, and so forth, it would of been a 1000 times more entertaining. Personally, I'd rather crawl naked through poison-ivy for 1 hour and 50 minutes than subject myself to this kind of torture again.
- DirectorJoel SchumacherStarsArnold SchwarzeneggerGeorge ClooneyChris O'DonnellBatman and Robin try to keep their relationship together even as they must stop Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy from freezing Gotham City.Seeing that we are on the subject of Poison-Ivy, the same applies here as to the above... You know, the crawling naked part and all.
- DirectorTony LeondisStarsT.J. MillerJames CordenAnna FarisGene, a multi-expressional emoji, sets out on a journey to become a normal emoji.Place sad-faced, teary-eyed, suicidal Emoji >here<
- DirectorTommy WiseauStarsTommy WiseauJuliette DanielleGreg SesteroIn San Francisco, an amiable banker's seemingly perfect life is turned upside down when his deceitful bride-to-be embarks on a passionate affair with his best friend."YOU ARE TEARING ME APART, LISA!" - Folks, I just can't do better than that. Please frequent the quotes section of this title for more profound and emotionally captivating dialogue... and don't forget to keep a box of Kleenex close-by, just in case.
- DirectorsJason FriedbergAaron SeltzerStarsKal PennJennifer CoolidgeFred WillardA spoof on previous years' epic movies (The Da Vinci Code (2006), The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005) + 20 more), TV series, music videos and celebs. 4 orphans are on an epic adventure.More like an Epic Flop, if you ask me.
- DirectorJan de BontStarsSandra BullockJason PatricWillem DafoeA computer hacker breaks into the computer system of the Seabourn Legend cruise liner and sets it speeding on a collision course into a gigantic oil tanker.It appears some idiot left the cruise control on idle. This movie deserves an Oscar in the category; "Most Boring Action, Non-Action Motion Picture of the Year" ZZZZZZZZZZZ!
