The Room. For me it’s the definitive “so bad it’s good” movie.

Hackers (1995), admittedly it has a fairly respectable 6.2 on IMDB, but only 33% on the tomatometer.

More honorable mentions:

  • Kingdom of heaven (2005) - 40% tomatometer
  • see no evil hear no evil (1989) - 29% tomatometer

Maybe not really love love but quite enjoyed:

The whole movie is bad and offensive, just like the games it is based on. And that makes it a nice fun adventure. It does really help if you've played the games though. I would give it a 6/10.

[–] sobanto@feddit.org 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same thought, it has 2,6/5 on Letterboxd, the distribution is crazy: 1000030519

[–] antithetical@lemmy.deedium.nl 4 points 1 year ago

Thats pretty cool. Movies with such wide distribution are often at least interesting.. Not per se good though.

[–] mcforest@feddit.org 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I think it falls flat at the end when the action begins. But most of its time it does a pretty good job at being self aware and is entertaining. I never played the Postal games though.

[–] antithetical@lemmy.deedium.nl 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the action part is the least interesting, especially...

spoilerthe shootout at the end.

But I really like the soundtrack of the last scene and the credits after that.

I’m surprised no one has rebooted this property as a streaming series.

Probably "The Core" (2003). I saw it in science class in 8th grade and immediately thought it was the coolest movie ever. Years later, I saw people online ripping it to shreds over its inaccuracies, but I still enjoyed it for being a fun disaster film with an enjoyable ensemble cast of characters.

[–] Idontevenknowanymore@mander.xyz 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am a scientist and it's also my favorite movie I hate.

Mom and Dad Save the World is at 5.4/10 - probably not actually the worst I love, but I correctly guessed it would be lower than it deserves (as absurd comedies tend to be) and it's the first one that came to mind.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The light grenade gag is an all-time classic.

White Chicks

Edit: To elaborate I just love how it is equally offensive to every gender and race. They pack so much into the runtime; like the beginning where they are dressed like Cubans on a stakeout for seemingly no reason.

Beat me to it. 6.6 IMDB, 33% RT. It stars Antonio Banderas as an Arab, but goddamnit I love this flick.

The sharknados, and perhaps half of Hollywood comedies.

[–] podperson@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Hudson Hawk gets a 5.7, which I think is criminal.

[–] Weirdfish@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

So happy to see this, one of my favorite movies.

[–] Zacpod@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It's so damn great!

Probably Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen. Does it have a ton of cringe moments? Yeah. But it's also fun as fuck.

[–] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 5 points 1 year ago

I really don't care about ratings and never look at them. One of my favourite movies is freddie got fingered and i'm pretty sure that movie was pretty hated.

[–] Outwit1294@lemmy.today 4 points 1 year ago (6 children)

It came from the desert (2017)

IMDb rating - 4.3

My rating - 8

Exorcist II - The Heretic (1977).
I love the atmospheric, almost psychedelic vibe of this film. The scenery and settings are stunning, Blair is blooming and the story is very interesting. It's certainly not perfect, but there is a lot to enjoy in there.
There have been a few versions released, so each might influence perception differently. I hope to see them all, eventually.

Best bad movie of all time. It's one of a few that are consistently entertaining and never boring. I show it to people at least once a year.

Anaconda has a 4.x on IMDb, that shits easily a 6-6.5. ratings are garbage.
