Travolta is such a talentless hack...

Fridge doesn't like Woody Allen, surprise surprise.

I love Allen, but VCB was a huge disappointment.

Twilight.
OMFG that was bad! Been forced by the gf to watch it since she likes it so much she wanna marry that wimp Pattinson or something. This "actor" was already pretty bad in Harry Potter, here, not helped by ridiculous dialogues and a plot which would fit on a stamp, he delivers even less.
I guess if I was a 14 yo girl, I could have not laugh that hard at the idiocy of that movie... Only, I'm not.
Now I think the gf's mad at me for calling it the worst movie since Plan 9 From Outter Space (even surpassing it) but, if she's stupid enough to enjoy such crap, I guess I'm fine with letting her live her no-brain life.

I'm Not Scared - Italian thriller about a kid who discovers something strange at the bottom of a pit on a nearby farm. Great acting from the kids, pretty good all round. Expected a different ending, so that surprised me. ****

After the shitfest that was Twilight, I watched one of my all-time fav' movies: Kusturica's Time of the Gypsies.
JUST GREAT! Poetic, deep and an awesome score by Goran Bregovic!

Forgot to mention that I went on an Arnie binge over the weekend with the l'il siblings, and:

Terminator - A classic! Arnie is damn chilling, and there's a real sense of hopelessness about it, not least because of what a useless tosser Kyle is. Pity the effects haven't been updated, but I suppose it works within its confines. My fave Terminator film.

Terminator 2 - Arnie is not chilling at all, and the film suffers for it. Apart from the uber-awesome T1000, it's verging on awful at times, especially John Connor's whiny little bitch 'don't kill them' act.

Conan The Barbarian - Awesome, especially (maybe because) I was drunk at the time. "Hey! I'm a wizard, mind you!" has become a catchphrase in chez moi. Not to mention the camel-punching and Arnie's hilariously bad acting.

Conan is a great flick. Everything just works, including the wooden acting.
I like Terminator, but the obligatory love scene was strictly from corn.

T2 was alright, I wouldn't call it awful, I think they were trying to inject humor into the movie is what the problem is.

The Silent Man · **Posted:** Tue May 05, 2009 4:44 pm

Night of The Lepus - Terrible terrible movie about mutated killer rabbits. Its from the 70s so the effects used are the movies only entertainment. Some of it was pretty hilarious, nothin like watching a man in a rabbit suit maul another man. Starring the man who is always standing and walking, Rory Calhoun.

Star Trek I - Meh, Not that good of a movie, though the last 20-30 minutes were marginally better than the rest of the movie.

Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan - Great movie, can easily see why this one is loved so much. KHAAAAAAAAN

Agreed re Terminator's love scene. And yes, T2 is where Arnie went into some surrogate father mode instead of the killing machine he formerly was. I rant about this a lot, but I hate crap like Twins and Kindergarten Cop. You have to admit that Edward Furlong was bloody awful as Connor, though. Let the machines win, if that's the saviour of mankind...

I actually saw Kindergarten Cop... horrible. Two or so hours of my life I'll never get back.
I figure, all the dreadfuuly bad movies my wife has dragged me to, she owes me at least one sitting through Scarface, or an equivalent.
But, I'm not counting on it.
I sat through fucking GHOST for her, man. Talk about sacrifice...

In Bruges - very good movie Colin Farrell was surprisingly good.

Evil Dead - a classic

Evil Dead - Ash rules :dio:

Teeth - fucking horrible movie i thought a flick about a vagina with fangs would be better, well i was definitely wrong.

Be kind rewind - heard some bad things about this movie but i actually enjoyed it.

The Mother of Tears - definitely not Argento's best and in no way compares with Inferno or Suspiria but it wasnt that bad.

Agreed with all your judgements except on Be Kind Rewind which I haven't seen. Mother of Tears could have been worse, although it wasn't really what anyone could call a good film. Teeth sucked as well.

"It's quiet...like a tomb....I'm sorry that was a bad joke!"

You're damn right it was, fucko! :lol:

Anyways recently I've seen Crank 2 (I imagine this is what cocaine feels like), Let the Right One In (mutilated genitals mmmmm), In the Name of the King (holy fuck what a hilarious mishmash of a cast!), In the Loop (man funniest insults ever).

at the bolded section, what a heroic quote!

I really really want to see Night of the Lepus. A few friends and I do Bad Film Club every couple of weeks and it's a prime candidate.

Star Trek I - snooooooooore
Star Trek II - KHAAAAAAAAN!!!!! :dio:

Star Trek III - a bit too silly but still not bad
Star Trek IV - better than it has any right to be
Star Trek V - holy fuck :blink:

Star Trek VI - a great end to the story for the original cast. My second favourite of the 6.

A bad film club, that's definitely something I could get into.
What films have you guys watched?
I am a huge fan of bad cinema.
Have you seen the incredible Two-Headed Transplant or it's incestious cousin, the Thing With Two Heads?

Radagast · **Posted:** Thu May 07, 2009 8:46 pm

So far we've a wide selection including:
The Ninja Terminator - 2 Kung Fu films spliced into one. The hilrious part is one of them is in English and the other isn't, but they dub the voices on both of them anyway!
Primal Species - velociraptors for less than $10!
Shark in Venice - well it least it wasn't on a plane
Oversexed Rugsucker From Mars - bisexual rapist hoover. I wish I was kidding.
The Star Wars Holiday Special - please, make the pain stop, oh please. This felt like it lasted 6 hours
Troll 2 - sorry, Goblins 1.
The Tower - Die Hard without the bad guys! Paul Reiser vs an evil building
Tough and Deadly - Billy Blanks high-kicks a bunch of motherfuckers with Rowdy Roddy Piper tailing behind him the whole time strangling the shit out of anything that moves. If a fight hasn't borken out in a scene in this film that's because it's about to break out.
One Man Force - the best 80s cop movie ever

And a whole bunch of Uwe Fucking Boll. Including Postal. *shivers* Poooostal.
