Just finished watching the Baywatch film. It was so bad and cheesy I couldnt stop laughing. Really enjoyed it.

What bad films do you love?

Rubber - about a car tyre that rolls around exploding people
Bloody brilliant

Basic Instinct - Michael Douglas dancing in a nightclub wearing a V neck jumper.

Night of the Comet, cheesy 80s B movie about a comet that turns almost everyone on planet earth into either dust or zombies.

Can't remember the name of this but it was about two vampires who were father and son. I rented it continually from the video store, my friend fancied the son vampire and I had the hots for the dad one.

I've just started watching Zombeavers, neef to see what the fuss is all about!

I once sat through some load of old arse called Skyline.

I've honestly had more entertaining headaches!

Just came on here to say Eurovision. Absolute feel good and simultaneously a total piece of shite.

And Dan Stevens deserves an Oscar Nomination for it. He’s unrecognisable in it...is this really the same man that was Cousin Matthew in Downton? Such range.

CoffeeRevelLove · 13/08/2020 22:57

@burnoutbabe I think we enjoy the same type of films 😊

I sort of disagree with The Room because I loved all the catcphrases, memes etc but when I came to watch the whole film, it was painful. No 'so bad it's good', just 'so bad'.

DocusDiplo · 14/08/2020 00:17

Cats! Loved it!

dootball · 14/08/2020 00:22

Smokey and the Bandit!

I think it might be best to watch the film first then learn the catchphrases 😂 so it has some context.

Agree with Cats, I don’t know what people were expecting really, the stage show is the same, it was no shock that it had very little story line! My kids asked to go 3 times and each time people around us were getting up and walking out while mine were singing away!

SisterAgatha · 14/08/2020 00:27

I think at the end it was only the purest Cats fans that remained in the cinema Grin (it was a singalong so it was firmly the movie they were walking out on)

icebearforpresident · 14/08/2020 00:29

I was just scrolling through the £1.99 movie rentals on amazon and came across... ZOMBIE TIDALWAVE!!! An earthquake let’s a hoard of zombies loose on the beach.

The best part? It has the guy from Sharknado in it!

ImNotShpanishImEgyptshun · 14/08/2020 00:31

Recently, Hobbs Vs Shaw. It's amazingly over the top and just pure fun.

The disaster artist is brilliant, and much more touching than I'd imagined it to be.

alula · 14/08/2020 00:37

Twilight Saga. Cringey movies with tons of plot holes and bad dialogue but I bloody love them. Seen them all dozens of times.

Whoever said Running Man...Shock that's a genuinely great Arnie film.

Pickles89 · 14/08/2020 00:40

Weekend at Bernies!! Grin

Bloodylovecheese · 14/08/2020 00:40

Face Off ....I have to watch it every time its on Grin

1000umbrellas · 14/08/2020 00:44

Another Stephen King 'adaptation' so bad it's... actually it's just really bad, is The Lawnmower Man. Shares the title of a Stephen King short story and absolutely nothing else. It's about virtual reality before there actually was virtual reality.

NameChange2PostThis · 14/08/2020 00:50

Escape from New York - every time, total nonsense, terrible acting, love it

NiceGerbil · 14/08/2020 00:53

Just settling down to watch the room...

3 mins in and it is surpassing expectations!

I think DH might struggle, he's got a different sense of humour... So he's in for a fun couple of hours!

SomeHalfHumanCreatureThing · 14/08/2020 01:04

Underdog. You're welcome.

AhBallix · 14/08/2020 01:05

The Forbidden Dance (spoiler alert: it was the LambadaGrin)
The Specialist - with Sylvester Stallone and Sharon Stone. The love scenes were side splittingly funny.

You all need to watch the room (2003)

It does not disappoint

It is just. Indescribable.

@Spinachfinger

The Room. Tis a cult classic for all the right wrong reasons
