Oh, I forgot to mention the not good movies that I watched over and over again on VHS in my childhood.

Number one would be the 1959 version of Journey to the Center of the Earth where James Mason plays a Scotsman and doesn't even bother with an accent and Pat Boone also plays a Scotsman but gives up on the accent after about 10 minutes. The whole plot is moronic and the effects are terrible and I love every single minute of it. The only true compliment I can give it is that Bernard Herrmann's soundtrack is terrific.

Then there was the 1980 attempt that Disney made to appeal to college kids, Midnight Madness. It was a total flop and I love every single minute of it. FAGABEEFE!

Third would be an animated movie that was made in France and dubbed into English called The Secret of the Selenites. It was a Baron Munchausen film, but I'm guessing they thought Americans wouldn't know who that was, so they left his name out of the title. It has a terrible pop song in the beginning that is in the "so bad it's good" territory.

For me its Fatty Finn. A 1980 movie adaptation of an Australian cartoon strip character from the 1930s. Why it was translated and published in Norway and what made my mother buy it I don't know. But I have seen it enough times that now over 30 years after I last saw it I can probably quote parts if it Verbatim.

That film is well beyond bad, it's so, so bad it's actually amazing. I try to get as drunk as the actors when i rewatch it every other year or so

Ice Pirates, Hudson Hawk, and Mario Bros are my favorite bad movies.

Hudson Hawk is the most 1991 movie to ever exist, it's so bad and I've seen it so many times. I think it was my favorite movie for a year or two.

1999's The Night of the Headless Horseman. Very '90s CG but if you're able to get past that it's amazing, one of my top two favorite tellings of the tale, with voice actors including Mark Hamill, Clancy Brown, Tia Carrere, Bill Fagerbakke, and William H Macy.

The Tripods (the BBC show). I loved it so much, still love it tbh. Still angry, that there was no season 3.
