I watched Bring it On fairly recently. I have to say that as a teenager, I loved it and still love it for that reason.
Watching as an adult though? Wow it's terrible (but good).

ParadiseLaundry · 01/06/2022 19:54

Literally came here to say Showgirls and it was first one on your list!

As you were 😎

ParadiseLaundry · 01/06/2022 19:56

Oooh, also Idiocracy.

DH thought it was a pile of shite but I thought it was great! Big cult following though apparently.

The Room (as in, ‘Oh hi Johnny, I didn’t know it was you’) . It’s so bad it’s brilliant .

So how is your sex life?

I did naaaaaaat. Oh hi mark.

A total classic!!

Housenoob · 01/06/2022 19:57

Rat Race
White Chicks

Most classic American teen movies from the 90's/00's. She's All That is a particular favourite.

CassTheFox · 01/06/2022 19:59

The Faculty. Although it’s not bad it’s great 😁

Cotherstone · 01/06/2022 20:01

Cocktail and Bring it On are awesome films.

I used to love that terrible movie with Owen Wilson as a pilot who gets shot down in the Balkans. So bad it’s great.

LetsGoWithTheFlo · 01/06/2022 20:01

Mamma Mia

LBOCS2 · 01/06/2022 20:01

Face/Off, The Rock, Bring It On, Starship Troopers, all excellent terrible films.

For a more recent offering, I'm quite keen on The Meg.

WhyPaulMemory · 01/06/2022 20:04

Ali G In Da House 😬😁

pigwood · 01/06/2022 20:10

Jaws 3. Have seen it at least double figures . It's like a wonderful comfort blanket.
The original Poseidon adventure
Jason and the Argonauts

SecondarySnob · 01/06/2022 20:21

Glad to see it's already been mentioned.

But I'm here to mention it again.

Speed 2: Cruise Control

Also I have a huge soft spot for 50 First Dates but I wouldn't go as far to say it's a 'bad' film. More cheesy.

Etinoxaurus · 01/06/2022 20:39

The Gunman
deliciously awful. Incredible cast who must have had several wtf moments during filming.

TheWeeDonkey · 01/06/2022 21:20

Jason and the Argonauts is a great film!

Also, The Meg, San Andrea's, Rampage, The Day After Tomorrow, Ghost Rider...so many more. I love a bad movie.

ShesAPeachSconeBob · 02/06/2022 04:05

I love The Day After Tomorrow but I was madly in love with Jake Gyllenhal.

Those who said Showgirls are you aware that there is a sequel called Showgirls 2 Pennies from Heaven? It's about the stripper woman the dancing odd jobs dude gets pregnant in the first film. I've not seen it but that sounds bad bad.

Anyway Coyote Ugly belongs on this list. John Goodman has denied he was ever in it and Tyra Banks ghosts people who bring it up in conversation.

squishee · 02/06/2022 04:08

Superbad

AwkwardPaws27 · 02/06/2022 04:32

Evil Aliens - just for combine harvester scene...

BOOTS52PollyPrissyPants · 02/06/2022 04:52

The Room and also The Happening both are so bad they just are soo funny and worth a watch just for that.. The acting the worst ever ...
