Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Mon, March 31, 2008 - 8:57 PMI LOVE 'Day of the Triffids'. I think someone needs to do a remake of that one.
When I first heard that Peter Jackson was going to direct a Lord of the Rings trilogy, I thought it would be awful... of course, I was thinking of Feebles technology. "Meet the Hobbits, Meet the Hobbits!" -

Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Tue, April 1, 2008 - 3:53 PMWell the original theatrical version was so destroyed by the editing of the Studio that it really was very bad...with the release of the full versions it is definitely a statement!

Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Tue, April 1, 2008 - 3:57 PMIt was funny, my wife and I had these two Peter Jackson movies as well as The Frighteners in our collection, not realizing they were the same director until after the release of the first LoR movie. They were just dusty oldies we would bring out to watch for our perverse enjoyment!

Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Thu, May 15, 2008 - 11:08 PMTriffids, a classic, i haven't seen that movie in years. sometimes the oldies are the best.. what about Them? giant ants.. that's a good one too. i think clint eastwood is a pilot at the end of the movie.. will have to check the credits the next time i watch it.

Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Mon, April 7, 2008 - 1:12 PMI really like Zardoz. I also recently re-watched "Mom and Dad Save the World". It's meant to be good crappy fun. -

The Living and the Dead
Mon, April 7, 2008 - 8:53 PMfor some reason, this film keeps popping back into my head...it's definitely crappy, but it's also strangely compelling. unfortunately, it also seems to be psychologically scarring. you really have to watch the movie to know what i'm talking about, because it is just fucked up. there's no other way that i can describe it beyond "fucked up" without talking in depth about some part of the film (which would still be confusing without the context).
i really think that everyone should see it...it's just that different and challenging, but rewarding enough to keep you interested (well, keep me interested anyway)
i'm actually quoted on the original movie poster saying "it made my brain hurt", and i stand by that ;)

Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Thu, April 10, 2008 - 7:02 PMNot to be one of those sniffy anal people (ok, I'm about to be, but I'm ordinarily not, and it's silly to be purist about crap), there's an important distinction between 'crappy movies that don't suck' and 'indy' or 'cult' movies. -
-
Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Thu, April 10, 2008 - 7:17 PMIsnt that quite often the very definition of a cult movie? "splain the difrenss, Lucy. -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Thu, April 10, 2008 - 7:35 PMOh, ack. Hoist on my own pedantry.
I dunno. Cult and indy movies are generally not bad, just weird because they are not mainstream Hollywood thingies. They have solid storylines, good if sometimes low-budget production values, and extremely competent if sometimes idiosyncratic directing. Ginger Snaps--Indy. Brazil--cult. Not at all crappy, either of them (though Ginger Snaps is kinda weird)
Crappy movie that doesn't suck--a movie whose acting, shitty production values, sloppy direction or general weirdness make it crappy, but which has something innately enjoyable, appealing or interesting about it. Evil Dead. They Live. Buckaraoo Banzai. Really deranged sci fi like Killer Clowns from Outer Space. Really egregious but lovable characters, like Shakes the Clown maybe. Pretty much any '70s Made for TV movie.
These categories are kinda wiggly, so I don't want to get into some horrid, hair-splitting discussion about categories. This is one of my favorite tribes, actually, because it's friendly and my netflix queue is full of stuff that people recommend here. -

Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Thu, May 1, 2008 - 12:44 PMOk, I just saw "Children of Night", possibly the worst vampire movie ever. It has the son of Dom de Louise (sp?), that beefy guy that used to be on 21 Jump Street in it, and Karen Black. So, we have incredibly bad acting, lighting, dialogue, premise and effects (vampires who sleep in bathtubs with extruded lungs?!?) Hilarious. -
-
Re: Crappy movies that are must sees!
Mon, May 5, 2008 - 12:58 PMI just can't stand by and let the challenge of the worst vampire movie ever go past without tossing my proverbial hat into the ring: have any of you had the 'pleasure' of watching "Strange Things Happen After Sundown"? My God! This is so bad...(how bad is it?) that I'm actually willing to burn it and send you a copy just so I can talk to somebody about how bad it is! The plot? Italian vampire mobsters trying to create zombies with tainted weed, with nefarious plans of world domination. Throw in a vengeful woman vampire, a baby-sucking Goth dude and his girlfriend, the devout Christian they kidnap and The Reaper, a vampire so old, he's said to be the first. A true gut-busting, bloodbath of a horribly amusing and horrible movie. Joe Bob says check it out... -
