What's your favourite "bad" film or series?
I mean the kind that are so badly made they’re hysterically funny. Like Attack of the Killer Tomatoes or the 1966 version of Modesty Blaise. Or that series "The Prisoner". Explain why: poor effects, cheesy acting, or something else?
Zara, honey, we’re talking here about films that *are* bad, so bad they’re good!
Oh man, I love alot of the bad 80s sci-fi movies that come on late at night. One of my favorite bad 80s movies is Clash of the Titans. I also liked Elvira, Mistress of the Dark and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

The A Team – for the reasons you state, poorly conceived, poor story-line, rubbish sets and actors – but they had an awesome van. And the Prisoner was a classic, bad series indeed !!

No Retreat No Surrender. Really bad action movie from the early 80’s.

The land of Giants was hilarious, I watched it a few times when C4 repeated them.
Just remembered about a film from the lovely 80’s called Basket Case, and the immortal cheesy lines of’ Whats in the basket?’ ‘Its my brother!!!’

Commando with Arnie. Its just hilarious he even jumps out of an airliner and lands in a river then just runs off!!!. He also shoots the same bloke on about 10 different occassions in the final battle. He also senses some people are coming to get him as they are down wind of him !!!.
Let off some steam Bennett !!!

Blake 7 … I didn’t think much of the cardboard acting at the time, but having seen a few re-runs I have been amazed just how much the set moved too. If the actor was to close a door the whole set shook, quite funny in an odd way.

Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace. Nothing beats a cheap cheapie.

I loved an Australian horror movie called "Bad Taste". It starts of with a group of aliens who discover the latest in fast food – humans and just gets worse from there on.
The acting is atrocious, the horror effect are straight out of a boy scouts halloween meeting, but it is a very funny film to watch. Favourite part of the film, where the anti-hero attacks the aliens with a petrol lawn mower. Apparently the scene still holds the record for the most fake blood ever used on a set in one scene.

Hello.
"The Prisoner" is the BEST tv show of all time, are you nuts?
For truly awful, I offer you the ENTIRE CAREER of Doug McClure (excepting "The Virginian", which was merely mediocre. I swear, the man has less presence than a block of wood and an unerring eye for a stinker – especially thr films he made in britain, suc as "The Land That Time Forgot". Terrible acting, clunky script, woeful special effects, wretched plotlines – our hero nevertheless succeeds in being the worst part of any film he is in, no matter how appalling the rest of the film may be. Other noted dreadful actors and actresses acquire charm and a veneer of competence when put in a scene with Doug – even Caroline Munro!
He has been elevated to the acme of awfulness by being selected by The Simpsons to represent actors of so little talent that it seems a kind of negative force – Troy McClure.
Who could argue with that?
Regards, Steve.

Re: TV series – so many to choose from. The early B&W Flash Gordon’s were appalling SFX-wise, yet sadly quite entertaining.
Re: films – I really like "Freddy Got Fingered" – one of the very very very few films that Roger Ebert gave absolutely no stars to in a review, that critics around the globe lined up to pan,which won two Golden Razzies and effectively ended Tom Green’s Hollywood career.
"Daddy would you like a sausage?
Daddy would you like some sausages?!"
Now how can that scene not be funny…?!
(apart from – it appears – the obvious…?)
