Heh :lol: once upon a time I thought that was just more campy bad acting in line with the rest of the film/that scene in paticular :whoa:
After a few watches it occurred to me that was "the signal" for the armed heavies to breach the room.

1990 Total Recall...I must have seen it 50 times. One of my most rewatchable titles, even on mute. That aesthetic.

How are we thirteen pages into this without a single Troma reference????? No Toxic Avenger, no Poultrygeist?

Also, for you Italian lovers... Zombi 2 (WITH A ZOMBIE SHARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Ever go back and watch a movie from your childhood and it completely ruins the nostalgia? Any "3 Ninjas" movie, Urban Commando, and Mr. Nanny. How did we (I) watch that???

Oh, and who can forget the magical effects of Simon Sez?

As a young adult, in the early 00s I worked in the video store that had been a previous hangout spot; back when they still existed in everytown USA. Watched so much crap there, stuff so bad it's good, some that should be destroyed, and others that are so fun I have no idea how anyone can hate on them. Dystopian future/post-apoc/weird outerspace/sci-fi style movies are probably my favorite style of "shitty movies"
Yes to Judge Dredd...but Demolition Man and Timecop are much better examples.

It's all good stuff. I feel like Troma movies are prerequisites you know? Kind of like if you tell someone you're really into film and the first thing they ask is "Have you seen the SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION?" You're like 1. Of course 2. It's a really bland film anyway.

DR. JEKYLL AND MRS OSBORNE is proof even great directors are not impervious to making really bad movies. Highly not recommended and this is coming from someone who adores Walerian Borrowczyk. The most redeeming thing in this film is an original score from Bernard Parmegiani (I had no idea he did film scores. Apparently he did another Borrowczyk film).

Udo Kier was in it and he stars in two of my favorite Paul Morrissey flicks.
FLESH FOR FRANKENSTEIN

BLOOD FOR DRACULA

I usually skip the prereqs... Don't ask me what classic movies I haven't seen :no:

Does Pi count? Or is that going to get me mobbed?

I just watched Morons from Outer Space, yesterday. It was magnificent. At least as good as any Monty Python movie I've seen.

Are you asking if its a prereq or a shitty movie? Maybe its both? :lol: I loved it when I was 16 but I tried to get my wife to watch it a few weeks ago and we both ended up looking at our phones and then deciding to just do something else. After watching "Mother!" Im not sure I even like Aronofsky any more.

Shitty movie! I don't know if you can call something that unwatchable as a prereq unless you're just trying to keep someone out of a club. One kid made a game out of it like the Tylenol PM game; get fucked up and see how long you could make it through Pi before you fell asleep.

@calfzilla - I was trying to be funny. I apologize if I came off as an elitist of shitty movies or something.

Yeah, regarding Arnofsky, I personally don't care for his work but I wouldn't dub it as shitty. You can tell he's a very smart guy, I just find his movies a little self-indulgent. He gets great performances out of actors, I just don't think he's the strongest writer. REQUIEM FOR A DREAM would be the pre-req movie out of his oeuvre for people getting into 'indie' cinema or "disturbing movies" :lol: :idk:

As an addendum for my anti-elitism...the week of Christmas I re-watched the original SCARY MOVIE and could not stop laughing so factor that in when you read my movie opinions :lol:

EDIT: What do Darren Aronofsky and SCARY MOVIE have in common you ask? Both came out in 2000 and both had prominent roles from Marlon Wayans. Two drastically different roles showing tremendous range. Take that Daniel Day Lewis.

Nah I got the joke. I literally meant I'm terrible at seeing prereq movies. Most of the "classics" (unless you count horror)? Yeah, no interest. But maybe I'm just a shitty movie noob :!!!:

I've seen a few of Aronofsky's films.. Pi was just tough to watch. I guess one of my criteria for "shitty movie" is "I can't stand to finish it".

Any fans of Feast? Or Black Sheep?
