Okay - here's a "getting to know you question":

What's your favorite cheesy movie?

I'll start:.  Flash Gordon, by a mile!.  Great soundtrack, terrible (though colorful) FX....and absolutely horrible acting.  Just perfect, all around!   Think I'm going to get it on Itunes...

"Rocky Horror" by a mile.

It is not my favorite film by any means -- and yet I have seen it probably 5 times more than any other film ever.

What could that possibly mean?


Edit:  "He asked rhetorically."


Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!

It means you live near a major arts city or a college, I think. Did they have the live actors on the side too?

Actually never saw Rocky Horror with an audience, myself.  Probably seen it about 5-6 times, though.  It wears really well.  (Of course, so do Priscilla, The Hangover, and Repo, the Genetic Opera...)

I've seen Rocky Horror at least 13 times and with all kinds of audiences.  Even once with a stage show up front.   There was nothing quite like a Rocky Horror midnight show.

There was guilty pleasure thread where I answered Flash Gordon and Sgt. Pepper, so I'll stick with those.

I've seen RHPS about twenty times in the theater, with a live audience.  Then I bought the VHS and watched it at home.  With the audience participation, the movie sucks.

Cherry 2000 is a great/awful movie to watch.

I guess The Notebook has to fall into this category. And yes. I cried.

HA!!!     Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band!  YES!!  Saw it at the theater as a kid twice.  Fond memories.  Funny stuff...the ultimate in cheese...maybe...

Never could get through RHPS, and have zero interest in it now.

I don't know, is Starship Troopers considered cheese?  If so, easily my favorite.  Actually think it's a damn entertaining movie anyway you look at it.

Where 'Blue' isn't a monkey but actually a giant mutant man-eating cricket, and the hospital is locked down for quarantine.

and of course...



Okay the latter was a made for TV flick back in the '70s but still, whatcha want with Connie Selleca's Sea Witch and a giant snapping turtle?!
Yeah, I'd remake that.

I don't know if it qualifies in this category, but I always thought The Warriors was an awesome example of campy action.  I mean, there's actually a gang of mimes here.  You gotta love it.

Quoted from Dressel
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky


A personal fave.

I could be here all day, but off the top of my head:

The Bronx Warriors
Frankenhooker
Brain Damage
Street Trash
Slime City
Killer Klowns from outer Space
Wild Zero
Bad Taste
Zombi 3
Zombi 4
Zombie Holocaust
The Refrigerator

The Warriors was mentioned! One of my all time faves. 'Low' budget and costume design aside, there's more to that movie than cheese. It's a shit load better than '300' which is based on the same source material.

I forgot about this one!  Attack of the Alien's Deadly Spawn.  And one of my mother's best friend's nieces was a victim in it...

Hands down: Army of Darkness.

Also, an honorable mention for Captain Ron!

Evil Dead is the best cheesy movie ever made. A true masterpiece.

Deep Blue Sea would be my favorite cheesy "bad" movie. Completely idiotic. Did they really think they could get away with a tiger shark that looks exactly the same as a mako, only with stripes? Well... they did. I just can't for the life of me hate that movie. True, there isn't a single good shark movie out there that's not Jaws but by default, Deep Blue Sea is the second best and probably the only one that wasn't absolutely horrible.

Freaked is a pretty damn cheesy movie that Alex Winter got produced because of his fame from Bill & Ted.  It features an uncredited appearance by Keanu Reeves as a dog man...or man dog...whatever.

It's really stupid, but I can't help but laugh at a lot of it; especially the parts with Randy Quaid.

CAMP BLOOD (1999) and BLOODY MURDER (2000) for me.

I actually want to buy the Bloody Murder rights and make BM3, 4, 5 & 6 (mos of which are scripted and ready to go).
