Best Bad Movies Made

A movie I haven't seen since I was a kid ... "I Love a Mystery" starring Ida Lupino.

 

I bought that movie for my dad for Christmas a few years back when it first came out on DVD (yes, it was on DVD). He loves that movie.

 

Face/Off

 

Road House, Cobra, Bloodsport and the like are the good kind of bad. Face/Off just sucks ass ... for more than two hours.

 

Nice call, JJ

The only thing better than a cold beer is tea with Ms. McGill.

 

Has anyone else notice the preponderance of Stallone and Swayze in these movies?

 

Swayze has perhaps the best horrible movie resume of all time.

How could we forget Point Break?

 

"Point Break" wasn't forgotten. Mizzou mentioned it on Page 4.

And tea with Ms. McGill -- "she do it to me last night" -- is classic stuff.

 

Was Steel Dawn a sequel to Red Dawn? God I hope not.
