I love horror movies especially the cheesey type of horror movies that are so stupid that they are great. I do prefer the ones that would always appear on SyFy, but any other type (that is not like the ones on SyFy and look a lot better) is fine too.

    Did anyone mention “Troll 2”, famously bad, notable because in spite of the title it has no trolls in it?

    2.9 on IMDB!

    Chopping Mall is terrible fun.

    I’d say marathoning Friday The 13th movies is worth a go. For what it’s worth, the fourth and sixth movie are legitimately good, but the rest teeter somewhere between entertaining b-movie and pure trash.

    The Stuff

    Saturday the 14th

    Terrorvision

    Sssssss (note: not Ssssss, fuck that cheap knockoff)

    Lawnmower Man (read the book first, then watch the movie, then go WTF did I just watch)

    Nothing but Trouble (although this is more of a comedy. It is very clearly poking fun at Centralia and Pennsylvania)

    Look Who’s Talking Now

      Saturday the 14th

      Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time. It brings me back. I can smell the independent movie rental place, the one with the low ceilings and the wall of NES games. Simpler times.

      Lawnmower Man (read the book first, then watch the movie, then go WTF did I just watch)

      I’m not sure that one gets back around to being good. Nailed the WTF part though. As a corollary, you can do the same with The Mangler. I saw the movie first, thought it was unremarkable. Then I saw it in one of the King short story compilations and was curious to see what they changed. It’s even shorter than Lawnmower Man, like two pages. And they made it into a whole damn movie.

      Look Who’s Talking Now

      …wait what

      I’m glad this made the list. I was 11 or 12 at a sleepover when I saw it. I was trying to conceal my fear for the first half. I spent the second half concealing my boner.

    Orgy of the Dead starts off like it’s going to be your standard weird bad Ed Wood horror movie. We get to meet Criswell, who you might recognize as inspiration for a character in Fright Night among others. There’s also an Elvira type character before Elvira did it better. But then suddenly it’s just a topless woman go-go dancing in a fake graveyard. The whole thing suddenly feels like an softcore porn parody of a Gilligan’s Island episode. The scene ends, and you might think “Gee, maybe they’ll move on to a different location or move the plot along somehow?” Nope, you get a short narration scene and then the next woman comes out with a slightly different costume and dance, still topless though. That scene ends and you think “Well they can’t possibly do that again, so maybe now the ‘plot’ will move along.” Nope! More narration, and another topless dancing woman. By the third girl I was bored. But it was funny again with the fourth. With the fifth woman, I gritted my teeth and thought, “When will this end?” But, by the seventh dancing topless woman it was hilarious. Each one of these dancing girls was almost identical, just slightly different slutty costumes and music. At some point they introduce a Zombie and a Wolf man character to leer at the women along with jerk boyfriend and scared girl tied to a post. After it was clear that the ninth topless dancing girl was the last, I felt immense relief and raised a glass to that mad genius Criswell. Those 92 minutes felt like days. This is not a movie to watch sober and alone during the day.
