Markus Nävergård

eh no. the core event of red Sonja is that she is raped by some barbarian ruffians and a goddess grants her amazing swordfighting skills so she can take revenge and she may never lay with man that cannot best her in single combat.

Markus Nävergård

so his stint as a guest star in friends was just a small break from his copaganda of magnum and his copaganda of his later careerer

Markus Nävergård

that is bad and what is worse is that i thought " could been worse". but yeah that is asshole behaviour.

Braska N

The Langoliers. A decent Stephen King novella with some of the worst early CGI to exist at the time. Not end of Spawn bad, but bad.

Reverend Paleo

Oooo, sounds dreadful!!

Reverend Paleo

No, she’s right. I love it too, but it’s objectively a so-so movie.

Reverend Paleo

Gun nut, has done nothing but copaganda for a couple decades, and stole hundreds of thousands of gallons of water from a California (can’t remember the town) fire system to water his avocado ranch.

MoonRiver

this isn't Twitter, what do you get out of posting bait?

Brandyn Riffle

Night Patrol (1983). The Unknown comic, Linda Blair, Pat Morita, and pre Dice Andrew Clay. Black face. Gay stereotypes. Billy Barty in one of his last roles... And he sued the producers for fart sounds added in post. It's an early 80's Trainwreck with some absolutely funny jokes and real psychic pain. If you want the worst, Night Patrol.

Brandyn Riffle

That movie gave me nightmares about little people when I was a child .. strong suggestion!

Tony

I can't remember. Have you done Howard the Duck?

Anita Squires

I am also a trash person for enjoying this film

Venkman's Assistant

You must be high.

WolfWizard

Definitely Garbage Pail Kids

Cave_Dweller

Well *NOW* it is!!

Jezebel Diablo

Isn't that every 80s movie?

Jezebel Diablo

Never saw it but I'm always up for trashing those two idiots

Jezebel Diablo

Is that the porn version? Lol

Jezebel Diablo

Ghost Busters. Sure sure I loved it too, but in hindsight, it was a really bad movie

jonesy

Second Mazes and Monsters. Tom Hanks classic.

Trevor Stephens

Garbage pail kids

Sean Mcfall

Another suggestion. The Apple . S real disco inferno

Markus Nävergård

Tom Selleck is a idiot? elaborate. tell me more

One I'd Nick

I just want them to watch an episode of Eurotrash now. I know it's not 80's and not a movie, but I'd love to see their reactions.

One I'd Nick

Hard agree. Also, I feel like our patreon names need a hard-core staring competition.

Reverend Paleo

Ooooo - Under The Rainbow (‘81). I was sooooo excited to show this to my sweetie when I saw it was on Prime, so rented it… If I coulda got my money back I would have burned it to prevent spoiling all other money. DID NOT HOLD UP, is what I’m saying.

Reverend Paleo

House II is nuts, but House was pretty damn good B horrorcom.

Reverend Paleo

Runaway, ‘84, with the idiot Simmons and the idiot who played Magnum PI. (Magnum the show rocks, and the actor was good as the character, but the actor is still a bloodthirsty idiot.)

Reverend Paleo

I will help.

Markus Nävergård

they dealt with far worse movies

Detective Popcorn

I can see them giving this one a wide berth given that there isn't much in the movie to make jokes about. It's basically a movie about a college kid with schizophrenia and how his friends and family wind up taking the worst approach in dealing with it.

Vausch Abendroth

I still can't believe Futurama actually referenced that. I didn't learn it until like, 18 years later. "What have I told you!? NO! MORE! HANGING! WIRES!"

Radical unelected bureaucrat @ Dept. Of the Deep State

Treasure of the Ninja. Voice over bad guy ninja is my everything.

Christy

Son of a bitch must pay

Spookems

If they do an episode on that movie and say it's bad, Katie and Alan from werewolf ambulance are gonna nuke them somehow.

Markus Nävergård

mmhm, i mean fuck they could do one on the jack T Chick comic Dark Dungeons alone. I´ve waited a long time for them to tackle the satanic panic in general ( first one, in the 80´s, not the Q-Anon one)

Christy

My very favorite 80s movie (because I am a trash person) is Big Trouble in Little China. Pretty pretty please 🙏

MoonRiver

honestly, I think the anti-DnD angle is so heavily tied to Christianity I'd say it qualifies for the main feed. hard to believe they haven't done it already

Markus Nävergård

i suggested that one to. Take my vote so we can all enjoy this "far out game" of mazes and monsters

Markus Nävergård

sex crimes was standard for comedies up to..... did they ever stop? i mean yeah as a teen the scene in american pie witht he girl stripping in that guys bedroom was hot, but now as ana dult " hey they are broadcasting that without her conscent, all of you need to be in jail"

Markus Nävergård

Part of my MO

Markus Nävergård

Some of us have made a name for them selves by drawing Duck tits though

Markus Nävergård

oh i remember that one. why have we never gotten a new Red Sonja movie? i mena it be a sword n sorcery rape and Revenge flick i guess, so that might be a problem. But She kills alot of just terrible men.

Markus Nävergård

they did indeed do that. Fifty shades of grey in the Paleogene

Markus Nävergård

GORDON`S ALIVE!!

Markus Nävergård

they killed that tiger with that black dye

Markus Nävergård

when the fat guy started to float i lost it.

Markus Nävergård

the author of the book death wish is based on who was a liberal got so upset with all this that he wrote his own sequal novel

Markus Nävergård

Marlins shop of mystical wonders. " Grandpa Borgnine leave some light and hope for me!" " Get out from under that blanket Billy, it gets Worse!"

Markus Nävergård

MAC CLOUD!!!!!

Markus Nävergård

or Death wish 1 for that matter, the author of the book was distraught over how conservatives loved th emovie, because that was not what his book was about.

Markus Nävergård

first i would Say Conan the barbarian. god i do not like that movie and i am a avid conan fan, i have a extensive collection of the marvel comics and Robert E Howards full compleation of Conan Stories, including the only Novel, Hour of the dragon. atleast the movie´s soundtrack is kick ass. Every character in that first movie is wrong. Conan was not a slave bound to a wheel, he elft cimmeria after hearing his grandfathers stories, at the age of 15 after the cimmerians destroyed the Aquilonian fort of Venarium. Conan was enslaved much later in a Hyperborian castle by a necromancer, but escaped. Thulsa Doom was a sorcerer from the pre cataclysmic age of Thuria, he was a skull faced lich magician and enemy of the atlantean barbarian then king Kull.

Markus Nävergård

California! i find that movie kinda endearing. i just has a soft spot for the kid who is clearly autistic,mourning his sister, it is kinda sweet.

Markus Nävergård

Maces and Monsters, Tom hanks in a Anti DnD movie where only Tom hanks character goes insane. it is based on a awful anti roleplay book by the same name, but only one of the players goes off to the deep end and ends up in a insane asylum and all his friends are fine, even the guy with a insane mother that remakes his room with out any warning. " sounds like a far out crime" " Maces and Monsters is a far out game"

Markus Nävergård

OOOOOH i heard of this one. it is absed on a series of cheap novels. the guy who wrote them was such a insane conspicay beliving reactionary xenophobe, other conservative authors thought he was to much.

LochUnruly

It's gotta be 1982's "MegaForce", star Barry Bostwick as Ace Hunter Or 1988's "Hell comes to Frogtown", Starring Roddy Piper

Sean Mcfall

Howard the duck please . It's just bad

Aaron Irvin

It's a movie that argues against gun registration, illegal immigrants are part of the communist plot to invade America, and it was good your father abused you so you could become a guerilla in world War 3. It could be in the main feed.

Hypatia

Amityville 2,the possession from 1982 comes to mind. Or Inchon, 1981.

cadavermouse

Did Red Letter Media do Island of Blood? It sounds familiar..

Rachel

As much as I love it as a guilty pleasure, if you can find it, the movie Body Slam is pretty brutal. Roddy Piper, Tonga Kid, Captain Lou Albano…

Patrick Carr

It’s terrifying how many movies seemed great at the time, and have aged horribly.

Patrick Carr

Endless Love. Horrible movie

Zeebs

Sorry, 1985.

Zeebs

I think it’s time we “let out some steam” with Commando (1984).

Jason H

There appears to be some confusion here, the podcast is called God *Awful* Movies.

Peter Paugh

There are quite a few good movies being nominated in this thread --- doesn't mean it won't make for some good comic fodder!

Rachel

Oh, damn. I need Eli screaming “NO WIRE HANGERS!!!”

Rachel

Labyrinth is in no way a bad movie. Neither is Lost Boys. 🤷🏼‍♀️

WelcomeToFalse

Excuse me, sir! They are (according to Tae Kwon Do auteur YK Kim) ore pans, and I’ll not stand for this gold rush erasure!

Donovan Morgan

Blue lagoon

Unofficial_Opinion

Three. I love that bad movie.

Kajata

Oh, yeah, it’s peak good-bad IMO. Langella is acting the shit out of the craziest role possible, basically chewing on the scenery the whole time; it’s perfect!

Unofficial_Opinion

Wanted: Dead or Alive with Rutger Hauer, Gene Simmons and Robert Guillaume.

Unofficial_Opinion

I am ashamed to admit I loved that movie. Sometimes I randomly hum Guildor’s (sp) magical synthesizer theme.

Unofficial_Opinion

Wolverines!

Vausch Abendroth

It's yor's world he's the maaaaan!

Angela Earle

War Games! “The computer sounds like it missed him,” The Eli Bosnick Story. Why did they think it was a video game?! Where were the points?! I can feel Noah’s heart and face getting red….

Angela Earle

Papa can you hear me?!

Ed “Short Arms” Marcus

The Robert englund phantom of the opera - or Jason takes manhattan

Kevin Meier

Xtro, made right at the start of the 80's with one of the most bizarre attempt to rip of alien for like 2 scenes

m68ken

Ah yes, The Far Side version of Hell. 😅

Ian from wine country

I have very vague memories of this movie from childhood

Aaron Irvin

RED. DAWN.

April Poff

I think it was Siskel and Ebert who dubbed Ishtar (1987) as the worst movie possible. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishtar_(film)

Jon & Sam

Blood Diner!!!

Lord Lotech

"The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension". So much promise wasted 'cause the director didn't know what kind of movie he wanted to make. Peter Weller being charismatic in some scenes then just phoning in others 'cause he's sick of reshoots and script changes. John Lithgow's bouncing off the walls while eating all the scenery performance. (And that was after the director made him tone his performance down 'cause he was too crazy initially). Oh, and all the good aliens from the 8th dimension are Jamacian.

Matty B

They also did The Prophecy with Christopher Walken as the angel Gabriel and Viggo Mortensen as one of the best performances of Lucifer ever. Still deserved the review even though it was just Heath wanting to watch a good movie.

SadPanda

My first thought is the classic bad movie to end all bad movies, one that I loved as a child, for some unknown reason: Howard the Duck

Matty B

Good Bad exists. Lost Boys is so effing good but it put a gun to my head and made me gay. They Live is an excellent story with poor acting. Except Keith David. He is a golden god and i will hear no cross words against his buttery gargoyle voice.

tronvillain

It's very odd when people suggest good movies.

tronvillain

Leviathan is just an excellent movie though. There's nothing to seriously make fun of.

Julie LaVoice

I didn't even remember there was a Smokey and the Bandit 2!

Julie LaVoice

Revenge of the Nerds: This film did not age well despite how much I loved it at the time.

tronvillain

Hell Comes to Frogtown. It's on Tubi, and is the Rowdy Roddy Piper movie that's not good.

Austin Hawks

Class of 1984. Perfect exploitation film of the 80s

Lord Lotech

Remo Williams: The Adventure begins. Fred Ward trying to look cool! Joel Grey in yellow face as a Korean Kung fu assassin master! Kate Mulgrew after the "Mrs. Columbo" money ran out! And Wilfred Brimley as Wilfred Brimley, only more focused!

CarrieBoo

The oh so incredible sequel to Saturday Night Fever, Staying Alive...a sweaty, spandex clad, bulge centric Broadway dance epic directed by everyone's favorite action star Sly Stallone.

Alex Hencken

Not the worst (in fact an old chestnut an ex turned me on to in the late 80s early 90s), Penelope Spheeris 1983 "Suburbia". Staring a very young Flea (of The Red Hot Chili Peppers).

MoonRiver

so bad, it used to be the worst thing Bill Cosby was ever associated with!

Erik N Wiseman

Clan of the Cave Bear: hand waving and grunting, the movie. (Ha! Droopy plantain/fruit/whatever.)

Erik N Wiseman

I suggested Xanadu, too! I watched that so many times on HBO as a kid. (I mean, it was the same few movies on repeat each month back then. I think I memorized For Your Eyes Only.)

Garrett Cousino

Came here to suggest this one!

Erik N Wiseman

Xanadu! C'mon, it has a magical roller rink. I also find The Ewok Adventure or Ewoks: The Battle for Endor compelling as "good bad." Damn, I forgot about Ghoulies - that's another "this is bad but sort of fun" movie. Wait: House, or House II: the Second Story would also be fun. I'll just continue my trip down memory lane...

Gertrude Schmidt

Yor, the Hunter from the Future There's a scene where the protagonist uses the rigor-mortised corpse of a giant bat to hang-glide-kick a purple caveman. And that's among the least memorable scenes from this movie!

Mike X

Leonard Part 6

Mockingbird Nation

I would also like to lobby to be a guest masochist if you do this one. I have actual credentials to talk about it

Mockingbird Nation

Best of the Best—it has everything. Eric Roberts doing Tae Kwon Do. Homo erotic bonding moments. Chris Penn trying to be an action hero. ‘We can’t let the girl one ACTUALLY fight’ misogyny. Phillip Rhee trying not to laugh at the white dudes. James Earl Jones phoning in a performance from the surface of the moon via string and can.

Robert Muse

It’s the best and worst of the 80s - commando

Kevin

It was a main stay on channel 5's Sunday matinee along with Beyond Thunderdome and The Guyver.

John F

It’s Fury Road with frogs!

Timothy Lehnerer

Oh, that one's pretty amazing. It plays out a little bit like the movie adaptation of a one-season cartoon that nobody remembers. Five adult orphans live together in the same house, are in the same band, are going to the same college, and are in the same Tae Kwon Do class. They sing songs! They fight crime! One of them is looking for his absentee father! The ending caption is completely opposed to the previous entire movie!

lil-brudder89

I could have sworn they did Miami Connection already

Xeciash Vega

Smokey and the Bandit 2 or 3. I didn't even know there was a 3 until a minute ago

Liz Mancini

Cherry 2000. An incel weirdo hires Melanie Griffith to help him retrieve a sexbot from a post-apocalyptic war zone. The incel thing isn't just window dressing, either. It's the entire point of the movie.

Jennifer Eckert

😂

Jennifer Eckert

lol! It is torture

Morten Worsøe Schoubye

Gosh darn it, you’re right! It’s from 1974. Still deserves to be dealt with as it is horrifically bad.

Alysha L

She-Devil with Meryl Streep and Roseanne Barr https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098309/

Someone in the military mistyped DEI as DUI and that’s how we got Pete Hegseth

Short Circuit. I’m sorry you have fond memories. It is so problematic that it’s hard to watch now.

Robert Muse

And that’s why it would be a perfect episode

WelcomeToFalse

I think you’re describing the franchise after that movie left the theaters. :P

Leon Heartly

The wizard from 1989 it'd about nintendo

Robert Muse

Conan the destroyed

V-Gin

I submit 'She' (1984). - In a post apocalyptic America, She, a fierce warrior who leads a woman's cult, teams up with two brothers searching for their kidnapped sister.

Robert Muse

They would spend the entire run time talking about the pug

Robert Muse

Blame it on rio Death wish 4

Deadeye Nick

I was thinking they did They Love already, but that was.QAA

Deadeye Nick

😯 it has to be a strong association to something.

Richard Smith

Bad movie! Crash! Crash!

Matty B

Was originally going to request Zardoz but i believe thats the 70s.

Taru Tikkanen

Soul Man was bonus ep 39

Richie Mercado

My wife cherishes this movie. She showed it to me and I was lost at wondering who exactly I married. 😂

Milla-Molly-Mandy

Taffin, 1988. Pierce Brosnan plays a fist-fighting debt collectors who takes on evil re-developers to save a children's playing field; deaths ensue. Also starring Alison Doody from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade as love interest, and almost the entire cast of Father Ted.

m68ken

Bronson: 30-cal Browning and a Wildey Magnum His black friend: a zip gun

Kajata

Masters of the Universe, 1987, Dolph Lundgren, Frank Langella, and Courtney Cox in a film about He-Man and Skeletor in which a magical synthesiser plays an essential role. What more could you want?!

MoonRiver

"Only through the elimination of violence can we achieve world peace." -the movie's punchline after 80 minutes of solving problems with kickpunching

Christopher Arguin

"The mayor from Spin City"... you mean Brad Majors from Rocky Horror Picture Show? You might as well say that Teen Wolf starred the deputy mayor from Spin City :D

Deadeye Nick

I think I love this

MoonRiver

Death Wish 3, alternate title: "What Your Racist Uncle Has Wet Dreams About"

WelcomeToFalse

And, evidently, the power of friendship is a lot more shirtless and murder-y, than one would expect.

j

For heath... Flowers in the attic 1987.

Jennifer Bourne

Even Christina Crawford thought the movie was ridiculous.

MoonRiver

honestly Mazes and Monsters is kinda main feed material. really hope they get to it tho

MoonRiver

that Razzie is the only thing Trump ever deserved to win

MoonRiver

"our poster's gone!" *dramatic music sting*

MoonRiver

it's been a shitty month, it's gonna be a shitty year... do something nice for yourselves. watch Miami Connection. it's about a rock band named Dragon Sound that does tae kwon do, fights ninjas, and sings about friendship and aforementioned ninja fights. it's dweeby, it's embarrassing, it's 100% sincere, and it's my favorite bad movie

B. King

The mayor from Spin City as a super-soldier with a flying motorcycle in a bandana, mullet, and bodysuit! Yep, that's the worst.

Nolan B.

I will always defend They Live and The Lost Boys as classic horror films.

WelcomeToFalse

I think they may have done Soul Man, already.

marissa haire

"Never too young to die" https://youtu.be/jcu6RxYk9og?si=2Wpofnsu4-nOyYfb Starring John Stamos, Vanity and Gene Simmons

Timothy Addison

Jaws 3 or Ninja 3 :the domination

Laura Williams

Disappointing star appearance, ill conceived vanity project, charisma free cast. It has it all.

TBoneSF

How about movies that everyone thought were "woke" but really are the opposite if you look at them critically? Soul Man- C. Thomas Howell does blackface to learn "racism is bad" but in reality you get a movie by a white writer and director that is "you know what the REAL problem is" Tootsie- Let's break this down. Young, good-looking actor can't get a good acting job because he's an asshole. So despite the fact that >90% of acting roles you could earn a living with are only offered to people like HIM, he decides to disguise himself for a recurring role meant for an older, non-traditionally good-looking woman. That role would be an absolute unicorn and life-changing for the older female actor it was meant for. He not only steals that role, he burns it forever because there's no way they'd recast it and they'd never offer that type of role again (because the audience would be always wondering "is that just some dude in drag"). Half the jokes are lazy "gay panic" jokes and we get to see that women WOULD have equality if they just asked for it but it takes the man in the dress to realize that and just get it done.

King Chris

Omg Harry and the Hendersons would make my year

Flantastic02

Twin Dragon Encounter: the archetypical low-budget 80s action film. complete with a stupid gimmick and galactic levels of vanity on behalf of the writers/directors/stars

Daniel

Howard the duck never fails to disappoint

Jenamarie

Yes they did! With a real bear in one of the scenes too

Richard Smith

Or Deepstar Six, the other “gotta ride those coattails” movie that came out the same year as The Abyss. “What’s a henweigh?”

Venkman's Assistant

Island Of Blood. A movie about a bunch of filmmakers who travel to an island to make a porn movie, but get picked off by a killer who uses a bespoke rock song to tell their victims how they will be killed. I'm Dancing As Fast As I Can, a movie that purports to be the true story of a woman who is addicted to opiates, but actually focuses more on a woman who is dying of cancer being angry that she's misrepresented by a documentary.

Mark H

Highlander II: the Quickening was technically 1991, but it was also the most 80s thing to come out in the 90s.

Richard Smith

Treasure of the Four Crowns (1983), an “homage” to Raiders of the Lost Ark, with very subtle 3D effects and a very pertinent end-credits scene. The best bit: https://youtu.be/PyOovqowURs?si=_X-fR0_czV2GqxH6

Ed “Short Arms” Marcus

Super Fuzz - Ernest Borgnine !!!

Brynley Andrews

Stone Cold. The Boz takes on a biker gang and they end up doing a January 6

Matthew Maxon

Hell yes!!! The *D&D is Devil Worshipping!" Is so bad it's good.

Jillian

yes!

Suzanne August

Shanghai Surprise with Madonna and Sean Penn. Or St. Elmo’s Fire. Terrible then, worse now.

Jillian

they did

Jillian

Miami Connection

The Void's S3 Bucket

Some guilty pleasures of my youth: Ninja Academy - Staring Gerald Okamura Critters

Dr. Nannerz, Ph.D.

Leviathan (1989). A movie with a solid cast, but that rips off every good 70s and 80s thriller ever made. Full of cliches and awful writing, a bad monster, and an over the top evil capitalist corp. It’s Spectacular. My favorite quote: “This whole thing is unnecessary, Doc. The only skin problem I can see is white people. How come you are wearing those gloves? It ain't bend-over time, is it?”

Victor Matesi

Prince of Darkness. Satan is a green ooze in a jar and Jesus (mentioned once) is said to be an alien.

Irregular History Buff

DEATH WISH 3!

Peter Graham

“Raise The Titanic”(1980) !!! The behind the scenes stories are great…

Deadeye Nick

They made a movie of that?

j

Warlock 1989. Julian sands and Richard E Grant just devouring the scenery.

Deadeye Nick

Stop. Labyrinthe is a masterpiece. And an atheist movie, I realized when I watched it again Sunday.

Kevin McGonigle

They literally set up cameras in the women’s bed and bathroom and broadcast the feed and also sold naked photos of a cheerleader to pretty much the entire school. I’m not saying the jocks are good guys but the nerds are definitely not good people. Let’s be honest at least half those nerds grew up to be Elon Musk fans

Peter Paugh

Big with Tom Hanks, The Lost Boys, or Labyrinth

NonMonogaMommy

Yentl.

Ed “Short Arms” Marcus

Steele Dawn with Patrick Swayze & Martin Kove (btw Kove us a Trumper )

James Russell

I wish the crew would go for a bit more Eurotrash, cos there are some marvels to be had in that field. Like The Mad Foxes (1981), the sheer amount of male nudity in which should be more than enough to get them excited. And part of me still wants to hear them tackle Jess Franco at some point, just to hear how they cope with that.

James Russell

I don't think the GAM team could do anything awful enough to make me wish that... thing upon them.

Hangman13182

Tough call on Howard the Duck. Clearly written by cocaine cut with something truly psychedelic. But it was never good, pretty sure people where riffing it when it was still in theatre’s.

Cindi Lynch

Neil Diamond's The Jazz Singer, the 1981 Bo Derek version of Tarzan, Jaws 3-D, the Lou Ferrigno Hercules, Staying Alive, Sheena.

Hangman13182

Yes they do predatory things and there’s the whole moon walk rape bit. The message of the movie holds up though, losers succeeding in letting the popular people know they’re valid as well. And you don’t think the jocks weren’t doing worse things to women off screen.

Hangman13182

Get Tom and Cecil to co roast the movie so Tom can freak out about smart AI! As much as I loved this movie as a kid I have to agree it was bad!!

Hangman13182

Yes!!! People need to know how awful this movie is!

Hangman13182

Nope the simple fact that Flash Gordon has the best sound track to come out of the 80’s makes it good - bad Sci-fi movie. Riffable sure but not god awful worthy.

Gregory F Ladle

MegaForce

Wojciech Kaczkowski

Awesome! Another episode for me to check out.

Hangman13182

Don’t know what your talking about rewatched this back in the fall and outside of some sexism and the fact the main character should have done steroids to beef up it was still great.

Hangman13182

I third this one. Love Chuck Norris as an action star but the movie and chuck norris jokes and bat shittery make this one my top

Mike D

The Phantom 1996. I want to hear the reactions of the guys from the scene involving the microscrope

m68ken

I think Death Wish 3 deserves a spot on this list for sure.

Jennifer Eckert

Dune 1984. I know it’s iconic but it’s also just fucking awful. I couldn’t get through it. Not even Sir Patrick Stewart could make that movie watchable.

Timothy Lehnerer

Here's the score: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hh1yuKBAOw

Timothy Lehnerer

Flash Gordon is simultaneously the greatest and worst movie it is possible to make.

Timothy Lehnerer

Co-signed. Barry Bostwick understood the assignment COMPLETELY, and also did some shadow puppetry that paralyzed me with laughter.

Timothy Lehnerer

Truth or Dare?: A Critical Madness is the Florida Man of slasher movies. It was directed by an eighteen-year-old and the score is eight notes on a keyboard OVER AND OVER AND OVER. The "copper" mask the slasher made in an asylum (???) flaps all over the place when he breathes. And one of the Backstreet Boys is in it, because Florida.

Timothy Lehnerer

Co-signed. You're going to have a LOT of fun with the moose yelling noise the barbarians make over and over.

Panzer

I second this one because of the absolute batshit ending.

Sham Hunter

Yay, I get to suggest “Masters of the Universe” again. It’s terrible. It’s wonderful. It’s stupid. It’s the story of an orphan finding love and saving the universe. Why is she an orphan? Fuck you that’s why.

Alex Greene

Ever try Mac & Me???

Douglas JM

Ewoks: the Battle for Endor. Loved it as a kid but it is not a good movie.

Matt

Wasn’t Porky’s also kinda like that?

Matt

I saw part of it years ago and hoo boy was that weird and bad.

Elvis Manson

Rhinestone

Peter Kyrouac

I 2nd Short Circuit! It was my fav movie when I was like 4 or 5. It still has one of the coolest intro sequences though with all the cables and circuits.

Wustite

Rhinestone means we get to hear Eli’s Dolly impression

Wustite

The Blue Lagoon, or Rhinestone

One I'd Nick

There is a lot to laugh at in that movie. Same with war games. It's a classic, but it's riffable in a great way

Michael Hardy

Just One of the Guys. Joyce Hyser can’t enter a high-school journalism contest because she’s a girl, so she (somehow) disguises herself as a boy. Bonus is William Zabka as the bully, pretty much playing his Karate Kid character with a different name.

One I'd Nick

You ever had a glowing 6 inch finger up your butthole!?

You can just think of me as That One Guy

I'd say SC is mostly pretty good, but then there's that "Fisher Stevens in Brownface" Elephant in the middle of the room, sitting there being casually racist like it's no big thing...

Michael Hardy

None of those qualify.

Samuel Machi

The Barbarians (1987) The Barbarian Brothers star in this sword and sorcery flick. It's dumb fun, but that doesn't make it good.

You can just think of me as That One Guy

Invasion USA - Chuck Norris illustrating why he's the La-Z-Boy dweller's favourite action star, by barely moving, barely speaking, _never_ emoting, and being a massively right-wing piece of shit. In real life, yes, but also in the movie, which he also co-wrote with his brother. (His character doesn't directly espouse MAGA thoughts, thankfully, but the movie is clangingly unsubtle in its subtext. Which is mostly just text.)

Donovan "Ravenhull"

Double feature with Can’t Stop the Music

Taru Tikkanen

That’s bonus ep 63

Michael Colon

Beastmaster One of those movies I loved as a child. And... wow it does NOT hold up. Hoo boy. If you remember liking that movie, do yourself a favor and leave it as a memory.

Wojciech Kaczkowski

Maximum overdrive.

Morten Worsøe Schoubye

Zardoz. It’s the prime example of what cocaine can do for movies.

Kevin

https://youtu.be/JUml88mJxyQ?si=96Vno48hXEHgmaH9

Brett Cocker

Megaforce (1982) Barry Boswick is Ace Hunter. Story about a rapid deployment defense unit that is called into action whenever freedom is threatened. Deeds not Words.

The Fallacious Trump Podcast

Ghosts Can’t Do It (1989) - Bo Derek, ghostly Anthony Quinn and a cameo from Trump! It’s amazingly bad

What do we want, time travel. When do we want it. That's Irrelevant!

I never knew there was a show

Matty B

Its dated now but that was a fun movie. I loved the MTV show.

Nolan B.

Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987) Apropos considering we’re getting a new Superman this year (fingers crossed it’s not godawful).

Who hurt you? TBH, it is riffable.

Hell Comes to Frogtown (part one or two, doesn't matter)

I just want the guys to sing along to the title song. Queen!

Julie LaVoice

Two votes for Flash Gordon!

Matty B

Flash Gordon They Live The Lost Boys Reminder, folks, riffing comedies (even bad ones) isnt comedy unless they are dog shit bad. Not sure Howard the Duck is that though it is close.

TheEthicalJerk

The Garbage Pail Kids.

E.T. definitely deserves a roast. It isn't actually much better than Mac & Me, just a higher budget...

Turanga Leela

Zapped! Starring Scott Baio and Willie Ames

Brandyn Riffle

They would really need a lawyer with them to watch that one. So many sexual crimes...

Vausch Abendroth

I was gonna say Mac & Me but you already did it. Garbage Pail Kids takes it then.

Jenamarie

Clan of the Cave Bear.

What do we want, time travel. When do we want it. That's Irrelevant!

I know comedies are tougher, but The Cannonball Run could be fun

What do we want, time travel. When do we want it. That's Irrelevant!

Blue Heron 55

I'd say that "Supergirl" brings out a whole new level of awful!

The Jazz Singer. Outside of some really good Neil Diamond songs, the movie is garbage.

Joseph Misinec

Duck tits woohoo!

Short Circuit!

Howard the Duck. The Marvel movie we deserve

In these galaxies, every possible reality exists, and what is reality on any one world is mere fantasy on all others. Here, all is real and all is illusion. What is, what was, and what will be start here with the words, "In the beginning, there was Howard the Duck!"

It released in 1990, which means it was*technically* filmed in the 80's, and certainly hits those vibes, but Hardware is a favorite good bad movie. It even features pointless religious nonsense.

So I think this is more on The Rundown levels of good-bad, but Escape From New York

Kevin McGonigle

I think you have to go with the revenge of the nerds. Where the “good guys “ are all sexual predators

Mazes & Monsters (1982) Just imagine Tom Hanks saying “I’m going to fly, I have spells”
