I'm ill and I'm in the mood for a bad but enjoyable film. I'd appreciate any suggestions. TIA

Love Actually

Another vote here for Galaxy Quest.
Also Congo - the one with Tim Curry as the bad guy and the signing gorilla, Amy.

FermatsTheorem · 16/07/2019 12:06

I still don't think Galaxy Quest (which I love - Rickman in particular is wonderful) should be on this list, because it's not a genuine "so bad it's good" film, it's a parody of a "so bad it's good" film.

By Grabthar's hammer, you shall be avenged!

Oh yes, Grease 2!! “I need a coo-ooo-ooo-oool rider!”

Ooh Deuce Bigelow Male Gigolo and the amazing European Gigolo sequel.

Only You, starring Robert Downey Jnr and Marisa Tomei. Her character believes she is destined to marry some guy she's never met before and when she finds out he us heading to Italy, she jumps on a plane with her ballsy best friend (the best friends are always ballsy in these films, aren't they?) to Venice to track him down. Loved seeing the sights of Venice, Rome and Sorrento in this film!

Another vote for grease 2. Who cant love a film with the lyrical genius of
'Who's that guy on that motorcycle?
What would they say if they knew it was michael?"
Classic.......😁

ThreadKillerSleepsInACoil · 16/07/2019 21:52

Demons.

So, so, so bad it's absolutely wonderful.

mogloveseggs · 16/07/2019 22:05

Starship troopers
White House down

SuburbanCrofter · 16/07/2019 22:09

Another vote for Con Air. "Don't touch the bunny" Grin
I don't think anyone has mentioned Wild Things yet?
Also, Netflix currently has the film version of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat - it is the campest thing I have ever seen in my life.

Grease 2
Rocky 4

ChihuahuaMummy1 · 16/07/2019 22:11

TitilatedOcelot · 17/07/2019 00:14

Chappie. A truly awful film about a gangster robot.

Andromeida59 · 17/07/2019 00:33

I love bad celebrity biopics. My favourite one is the Will and Kate film. It's so SO bad but I love it!
