Um......most of the movies I like?  Every Arnold movie, and tons of horror movies like the Wishmaster and Warlock series'

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Lol, I LOVED the warlock series, and made it a point to also see every one of the "witchcraft" movies, and "witchboard." all terrible, all hilarious. Same with Phantasm.

but, by far, my most favorite of horrible movies is Velvet Goldmine. It's freakin' pointless, but goddamn... it's so HOT! I get excited just thinking about all that manflesh and glitter.

further down the list of horror... tank girl. once again, it's just... silly, but in a cute, tough, heartwarming way. Lorie Petty rocks my pink socks.

... Clive Barker's Lord of Illusions. strangely wonderful, actually better than the short story it's based off of, but still... I love Clive Barker, I just don't think he should make his books into movies, they don't translate well, even when they translate better.

guilty pleasure films....*thinking*

- Dune, the Lynch version. I LOVE this movie...it cracks me up no end, and I can quote every line haveing seen in 100+ times. *and he'll die before these eyes, and he'll know - He'll know - that it is I, Baron Vladimir Harkonnen, who encompasses his doom!!! Mooohoohahahahhhhahah!!!!* *gotta love it...*

- Tampopo (or Dandelion) won lots of awards, but you have to love ramen, spaghetti westerns, film noir, buster keeton and family to appreciate this film.

- Brat Pack films...

- Troll, Legend, Krull , 1980's fantasy movies =)

Legend, thats a good one....

I'll add "Timeline" the movie really sucks, but I had loved the book b4 I saw the movie, so maybe that made me biased going in. Pretty much terrible acting all around, cheesy screenplay and muffed up plot, but for some reason I like. Maybe because its medieval and I like medieval stuff.

On that note I'll also add "The 13th Warrior" also based on a Michael Chrichton book. But way better than timeline.
