    The only one I've seen in full is Xanadu. That's really not a good film, but has great music, and I enjoyed most of the musical sequences. Just the story & dialog are all worth skipping.

    Saw parts of ShowGirls and Dune. They were both interesting, but I didn't get completely through either.

    I wonder what a mashup of all 20 movies would look like.

    "Plan 9" is the only one on that list I could see myself ever sitting through again.

    How did Pootie Tang make this list instead of From Hell It Came???? And its also the film with one of my all-time favorite (and shortest) reviews: "From Hell It Came. And back it should go."

    The only one with even slight interested is Roadhouse. Mainly because of Jeff healey.

    Nothing here I could sit through again without being high. And with a lot of good quality munchies in front of me.

    Deathstalker (1983) a very cheesy Sword n Sandal flick, but entertaining. Barbi Benton probably helps.

    Saw Stayin Alive.....actually paid to see it with my girlfriend at the time in the theatre. :laugh:

    Have to say that it is so bad/good that whenever it appeared on TV in later years I made a point in catching it.

    Mommie Dearest is awesome. I screen it every so often and enjoy every bonkers minute. Anaconda ain't half bad either.

    I agree. Both of these are enjoyable watches under the right conditions.

    ROADHOUSE is so '80s Bad it's '80s Awesome. It desperately needs to be released on 4K with a Pop-Up Video/MST3K overlay.

    [Swayze is a bad movie god. See also RED DAWN, a bizarre and bizarrely popular amalgamation of wingnut paranoia: Central American commies are here and occupy America all the way down to the Colorado township level. Only a plucky band of untrained high school kids stands between us and the wrath of former Sandanistas -- WTF?]

    Overall, this is a good list of movies that are easy to watch, guffaw, and riff on. IIRC, ANACONDA was aka "That movie with Jennifer Lopez in wet clothing."

    This list is really weak - most of these don’t qualify for “go0d” bad movies.

    That's what Showgirls looks like to me, as well. Like Valley Of The Dolls, updated to the '80s. To speak of yet another "film" that should have made the list.

    skidoo gets my vote.
    the oscar is another one. the dialogue is supposed to sound like clifford oddetts, but there are some real howlers. "quit beating my ears. I had enough of your bring down." the acting is also over the top. the best and most restraint performance actually comes from comedian milton berle.

    I loved Deathstalker when I was about 15.
