Was that the one where the bad guy's name was "Sho'nuff" and it was all about 'Got the glow'? Yeah I remember that one and would put it up there. It was the last of the Blaxpoitation / Kung Fu genre. In the same vein I would add Gymkata starring a 1984 Olympic gold medal gymnast beating up Ninjas with the ancient art GYMKATA!
This might not qualify because I think Arnold intended it to be campy but what about Commando "why don't you let off some steam Matrix..."
He was the Shogun of harlem dammit; plus Vanity was in it. Ah yes, that was the towards the end of the great 80's ninja movie renaissance when Sho Kosugi ruled the box office. Those were the days.
Encino Man. There were a couple of well known actors in it. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...=/ref=cm_lm_asin/102-3051453-1102531?v=glance Brendan Fraser made his film debut in this 1992 comedy that never quite discovers its audience constituency. On the one hand, it features Pauly Shore, which would seem to define the picture's tone and identity accordingly. On the other hand, the film's other leading man is Sean Astin, the earnest star of Rudy, suggesting that Encino Man will have a lot of heart despite its silly premise. But none of that turns out to be true. Fraser plays an unfrozen caveman discovered by a pair of California high school outcasts (Shore and Astin). As the grunting newcomer becomes popular with the other kids, Shore and Astin try to bask in his reflected glow. Fraser, beginning a long movie career playing cartoonish goofballs, works entirely on instinct and earns his laughs. Shore, however, relies on his familiar verbal shtick, and Astin makes a great overgrown puppy pining after a lost girlfriend. Directed by Les Mayfield, who came to this project from his acclaimed documentary, Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse. --Tom Keogh
OMG you watched that! I laugh my ass off every time I see it in the 5.00 bin at Walmart. Max Magician and the Legend of the Rings = Harry Potter + Lord of the Rings? Ummm...i dont think so!
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - ironically spawning a television show that was just plain good. Labyrinth - David Bowie as Michael Jackson
actually, i LOVE that movie and can pretty much quote the whole thing. i honestly dont think ive seen a movie more than P.B. that being said, its cheesy as hell and the dialogue is no shakespeare. "alright man, i gotta pay, im going down and johnny utah gets his man. but come on! look at those waves. my whole life has been about this moment. where am i gonna go? theres cliffs on both sides! im not gonna paddle to new zealand! come on compadre."
bad movies ive seen while traveling on mexican busses that i would otherwise have never, ever seen... triple x - pretty action packed, but cheesy as hell. flying 50' in the air, haning onto the back of a motorcycle and firing an assault riffle at some dudes. or blinding a would-be assasin with a silver dinner plate and than using said plate to do a b****in' railslide down a flight of stairs for a quick get-away. a walk to remember - with mandy moore. absolutely horrible. it was so bad that it was hilarious.
I may be the only one who's seen it. I let my 6 year old brother (at the time) go with my dad to the video store to selest a Friday night movie. He came back with the worst movie ever. Slime City It was so bad, it was good.
Total Recall Waterworld The Quick and the Dead- the one where Sharon Stone was called Lady, killed her father while aiming for the rope, and made bullet hole shadows of her villain.
