Bad Movie Contest


I really, really love bad movies. I used to hide this fact, but I'm getting older and I don't care anymore. Now when I say bad, I'm not talking about the new Star Wars series or the new King Kong movie...I'm talking about movies that are so bad they're funny OR they're just kewl...I have some pics here of just a few that I like. Space Camp and CHOMPS were turkeys from back in the day, but they really made me feel like life would be worth living if I could go in to space with my robotic dog. Ah, youth...Then there's Reptilicus. You must see it. There are no words to describe how truly awful it is. Here's a taste...the movie starts off with a bunch of scientists digging in the arctic. Pretty basic right? Except the arctic looks a heckuva lot like Florida. I know, I've been there. I also have a special affection for The Mummy. In fact, I own it, and I've watched it so many times that the DVD is about worn out. (...can't believe I'm admitting this...) I think this one falls under the "so bad it's funny" category, but also I'm a big fan of Arnold Vosloo and Oded Fehr. These men are hot. The Transporter also stars a hottie, and is a terrible film, but the movie just has some really awesome fighting. Underworld and AVP are both bad films. You know it and I know it. Still, I'm a sucker for a mucho cool science fiction film. Which brings me to my latest favorite, Aeon Flux. I've avoided watching it until last night when there was nothing left to rent. I remember the cartoon from Liquid Television, and as much as I like Charlize (who doesn't?), I just didn't want to see a good thing gone bad. But I was delighted. It's pretty bad alright, but I liked it anyway.
SO....here's the contest part...e-mail me me a suggestion for the worst/best movie ever. Include the title and a short description. No porn! I'll make every effort to watch and review the movies. Then after a time, I'll chose a winner. What do you win? A Fuzzy Fitness and the Shoe Cow bumper sticker, of course! I'll announce the winner when I darn well feel like it. I look forward to your movie picks!

Wait until "Snakes on a Plane" comes out, it's going to be a horrible classic, bet on it!
