Have you seen the horror version of Phantom Of The Opera by Dario Argentio?  Or what about Suspiria (also by Dario)?

I'm afraid that I've missed a lot of those movies. My local video store doesn't have much to offer in old horror movies, I'm afraid. Plenty of newer ones though.

I have seen the old Invasion of the Body Snatchers, though. I actually thought it was alright (although the Donald Sutherland version is much better).

Has anyone seen Ticks? Now that one was hilariously bad. I believe the tagline was something like "Jaws made you afraid to swim in the sea, Ticks will make you afraid to walk in the woods". Hot dang, it was crappy! :angel:

I recommend Tron as an extremely crap film. Wait... can you recommend bad films? Never mind...

Anyway, other than it being the first film with CGI in it, it's awful. Urgh.

Oh and any of the Knight Rider films are rubbish too.

Uhmm... calling Tron bad... on the internet... you can expect quite some nasties soon, from random people you've never, ever heard 'bout. It's like going to a Sci-fi convention as a sandwichman, plackards saying: "Star Trek sucks!"

Well, I'm with PSucks on this one. Tron is a pretty bad movie. Speaking of bad CGI, did anyone watch Escape From LA? It also features one of the most incredible quantum leaps of any character in a movie ever.

I didn't know they actually made Knight Rider movies. I do believe they're rather bad, though.

Does anyone else enjoy watching Hammer horror movies? I love them. Especially their Dracula movies, but most of the others are good, too. :angel:

Last bad movie I saw was prob King Arthur, remember so much hype for that film and the way the story proceeded in the film was just terrible, I mean it wasn't consistent, one minute Gunivere (think that's how it spelt) is injured, next she's firing arrows like a marksmen, rigggggghttttt. :angel:

The Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy movie that came out last year was pretty bad too imo, focused way too much on trying to be funny, and also will remember that bad experience because didn't even get to finish the movie, because of a gas leak (Not even in the theatre but at the hotel that's a bit far away from it), stopped the movie half way, lost 10 bucks because of it too, grrr. Stupid theatre ;).

Another extremelly bad movie, that actually was an attempt to make a hi-class movie... is BeastMaster 3: Eye of Braxus!

In this film you will be introduced to clowns, a brain-sucking dungeon-dwelling tentacle-monster, a Baywatch King that could do better in a shampoo commercial, and the whole thing is topped off with Braxus himself!

This is what happens when Ninja Turtles breed with King Koopa. :angel:

I actually enjoyed the first Beastmaster quite a bit, but after the travesty that was number two (Beastmaster gets timewarped to LA (Edit: in the 80's to make it even worse)) I just stopped caring. I never had an opportunity to watch the third one.

Another one that's even worse, is a tankstation at the side of a highway, where trucks start to lead a life of their own, taking the tankstation hostage. Anybody that tries to escape, gets run over. Dumbest moment in the movie's when the trucks're nearly out of gaz, that the people inside the tankstation refuel them. Where the heck's their brain? :angel:
;)

I have seen that one! :apple:
It's so bad, it's hillarious! Do you recall the name? I've been wanting to see it again LOL

I've seen it too :D

Strangely enough, it's called Trucks :P

Imagine that LOL

:D

Edit: As a sidenote, here's one of my childhood favorites:

The Uninvited

Mom and I used to watch a lot of really bad horror movies when I was a kid LOL

And the plotline for IMDB's entry for The Uninvited really does pretty much say it all, in case you're curious:

"A mutated killer cat finds its way on-board a yacht."

Now that's great drama! :P

Hey, what do know? I've seen that Trucks movie too. Luckily I've blocked most of it from my memory. :angel:

Isn't it funny how the only good Stephen King movie adaption was The Shining, and that he didn't like that one. It kind of goes to show how talented he is, I think. ;)

What about The Green Mile? That's the only one I've ever enjoyed - I do hate Stephen King though.

There were actually a few Knight Rider films made. IIRC there was Knight Rider : The Movie, Knight Rider 2000 and also Knight Rider 2010. They were pretty damn poor.
