I haven't seen those two, but the best of the best of the best worst movies of all time is "The Room" (2003).

I honestly can't imagine any movie being as perfectly terrible as The Room. It gets even better when you start to look into the director/lead actor/writer/producer, Tommy Wiseau. I'm fully convinced that he's either D.B. Cooper or an alien. Maybe both.
Velocipastor
Wait what??? Some kind of gene experimenting gone wrong?
Came to say this, you beat me to it. Definitely The VelociPastor!
The original Mortal Kombat movie.
That is a great movie.
If you want a shitty fight movie watch the Street Fighter movie. Van Damme, Kylie Mongue, and the dad in Addams family...I mean what more do you want.
What about Streetfighter?
Hackers! i never saw it as a kid but my wife decided to go see it on a whim when there was a showing for the 20th anniversary and we immediately fell in love with it. It's simultaneously terrible and brilliant at the same time. we now watch it every couple months. HACK THE PLANET!
edit: i should probably fully read the original post before commenting
It's one of my wife's favorites! We actually decided we're going to rewatch it tonight for like the 15th time.
Hudson Hawk. Goofy heist movie with Bruce Willis who plays a cat burglar who is hired by a rich dude to steal several pieces of art which contain the secret to transmuting lead into gold.
Bunny!... Ball, Ball!
Kung Pow. It's so bad it loops back to being good.
They said bad movie, not cinematic masterpiece.
How shitty are we talking? Because there's, like, Super Mario Bros. (1993), which is a movie I liked that most people didn't, and then there's Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (1964), or The Corpse Grinders (1971), which I had fun watching but are actually terrible movies.
Those are all great suggestions. Super Mario Bros. is a classic!
Down Periscope
It's awful and the jokes are terrible but at the end of the day, so endearing.
Manos the Hands of Fate. Better with MST3K or Rifftrax commentary.
That's a classic!
How dare you call hackers terrible.
Lol true. Itβs actually one of my wifeβs favorites!
The 90's version of Island of Doctor Moreau is absolutely fucking terrible, and absolutely fucking fantastic. The story behind its production is also really wild and there's a documentary about it called Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's Island of Dr. Moreau that I can recommend.
Kurt Russell's Soldier is also one of my favorite bad movies
An absolute GEM of is Dead Alive from Peter Jackson. Just incredibly bonkers and the goriest movie ever made (lawnmowers ftw). Highly recommend it for 80s campy fun.
new neil breen film should be dropping soon so i'm holding out for that
If I like it, it's not terrible (plus I agree with /u/netburnr).
That said: G.O.R.A. and Accion Mutante are great campy Sci-Fi movies. The latter is a bit more gory.
Fukushima 50 - the overacting was hilarious at times. Knowing it's based on a real story I felt bad at times for laughing so much.
Check out Dracula 3000 if you are looking to laugh at a vampire horror movie featuring Coolio in space.
House Shark is a cinematic masterpiece and I'd watch it again anytime
Yes, I see your edit.
But I'm still angry. I will try to forgive you but it's gonna take work.
Mess with the best, die like the rest. amirite?
Moonfall. So where to start...
It was a big budget action flick, with sci-fi mixed in. Now don't get me wrong, I can suspend my disbelief just fine - you want to tell me that a zombie can rip a mountain in two, so be it. But the scientist in me just couldn't get past a couple things. It's an absolute blast of a movie, with great visuals. Mild spoilers below.
They successfully hide from gravity behind a concrete barrier. A space shuttle launches from the ground through a tsunami (literally in the water). Just absolutely bonkers. But so, so fun.
Top secret with val kilmer
Kung fu hustle and shaolin soccer are also good.
I'm sorry to post off your comment but there's no icon I can find to comment on the main thread in Jerboa.
But, we just watched Die Heart. It was just silly and fun.
Any of the Twilight movies.
The "Assassin's Creed" movie
Does Robogeisha count? A robot chops a building and the building bleeds, and I don't know if that counts as "bad" or "transcendent human experience".
Waterworld. It's so terrible but at the same time I love it.
Dry land is not a myth!
I love trash! Even though I love these movies, I feel most would label them as terrible. I would also recommend any of these movies if you haven't seen them.
Three movies from S. Craig Zahler
- Bone Tomahawk
- Brawl in Cell Block 99
- Dragged Across Concrete
Extra Trash
- Cemetery Man (Dellamorte Dellamore)
- Deep Rising
- Escape From L.A.
- Idle Hands
- Warlock
- Surf Ninjas
- Your Highness
"Evil alien conquerors", it even has its own theme song!
I loved Jason X. When I saw it on scifi as a kid and when I watched it again as an adult.
Ok, now if you are looking for a movie that is all style and low on substance, may I suggest: Repo! The Genetic Opera.
Itβs a very 2000βs rock opera with pretty good visuals. Itβs got a really fun vibe and very goth aesthetics. There isnβt much depth but you will probably be signing along by the end of it. REEEEEEPO MAN! REEEEPO man!
Franklyn (2008). I love Eva Green and the Steampunk vibes at the beginning.
Maybe not favorite, but Zombie Strippers was a lot better than it should have been. They should have also kept the deleted scenes, like the stripper logic.
