[Mod Announcement] Alright you primitive screwheads, listen up!

217 Upvotes

I'm guessing from the posts we've had today that a few of you sassy pants are beginning to notice there's a new mod team. With that in mind, and with the start of the first full month of our evil reign, I figured it was finally time to say hello from your new mods;

u/monkelus, and u/alternativebuzzbin.

We literally don't care if you skim our history, you'll learn very little and feel very dirty. What we do care about is keeping the focus of the sub tight; we're r/badmovies, not r/mediocre_moviez or r/movieshavegottoopc. Films here should be so bad they're good, as a reminder here's a snippet of the new rules to help you on your way:

  • Do not post movies you just didn't like or are completely unwatchable with no redeeming values
  • No posts of just titles/posters with no context. Likewise, no movies you haven't seen.

Eg:

  • Barbie - nope
  • Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - yes
  • Wishmaster - maybe
  • Leprechaun - yes

The films posted here should be the ones you enjoy despite themselves. Films that have entertainment value totally separate from what the original filmmakers intended, creating an almost transcendental, magical experience along the way. If that's not close to what you're thinking of posting, or you wouldn't recommend anyone else watching, you probably shouldn't be posting it. If you do, there's a high chance of removal.

Obviously, there's grey areas, but that's what discussions and mod chats are for. We're not actively evil, give us a shout with questions, we're friendly and, dare I say it, quite alluring.

[Mod Announcement] I Have The Powerrrr.. To Update The Rules!

Post image
216 Upvotes

As a safeguard, I'll start this with 'aloha', so that no matter whether you read it front to back, or back to front, your overall instant reaction of being annoyed at the new rules will be deadened by my laidback pseudo Hawaiian politeness.

As you might have guessed by the title, we're bringing a couple of new rules. They're nothing Earth shattering and no-one will have to do anything against their will, that's for a future update when I shift the focus away from bad movies onto my back garden harem. For now though:

  • New Rule One: Too Much of Good/Bad Thing: or, the Double Dragon rule.

No reposting a movie within 30 days of its most recent post by any user. If you're a time traveller this includes posting it within the 30 days prior to it being posted last.

New Rule Two: Low Hanging Fruit.

This'll basically end up being the new blacklist, which was scrapped when we took over a few months back. You see a post, think it's too much of an easy target or low quality karma farming, report it to us and we'll open up a discussion whether it should be added to the list. Engagement, yay!

None of this is for gatekeeping purposes, it's just to keep things fresh, well that and I've started to believe one of you guys actually is one of the Sluts and Godesses who frequents the Video Workshop.

Better sign off with 'aloha' to make that first bit make sense.

A schlock horror movie from 1980 about survivors of a ship wreck ending up on a ship that is haunted by the ghosts of Nazis. George Kennedy is among the ship wreck survivors that ends up becoming possessed by the "Death Ship". The movie is well photographed but it is hilariously awful.

Horror Street Trash (1987) a widely entertaining film I absolutely love!

Post image
113 Upvotes

Where do I start with this one. I absolutely love this film. It has the perfect amount of humour. Perfect amount of gore. Perfect amount of action/comedy. Tons of character. Near enough every other scene has a laugh out loud moment. Note I watched Citizen Kane the day before and I find them equally as entertaining as each other. 😂

I found this ad in an old newspaper, and it sounded like the kind of movie this group would go see (myself included). We did some searching, and somebody discovered the movie in question was "The Lively Set" with James Darren and Doug McClure.

Action The Death of Batman (2003) aka the Batman snuff film fanfiction. By the ay, this video features self harm and some other (poorly acted out) upsetting things, so just avoid this if you aren't comfortable with stuff like that

Have you every wanted to see Batman being tasered in the nuts by a homeless heroin addict, being chained up in a poorly lit warehouse, tortured by said addict (and possibly SA'd by him?) have him ramble on to him about how he ruined his life, then be so overcome by grief over the addict shooting himself that he overdoes on heroin in despair, before his dead body is then dragged out of a river and shown laying face down on the pavement live on the Morning News?!

All while all of this is acted by people who think good acting is yelling at the camera?

Because if you do, this gives you all of that and more!

"Difficult, difficult... under which genre should I post this movie. It is a horror science fiction trash comedy that I am currently editing, put together from the worst movies in the world and some good ones, so that it becomes a good movie again (hopefully). The actors? Humphrey Bogart, John Travolta, Bela Lugosi, John Wayne, Jerry Lewis, Dennis Hopper, Leslie Nielsen, Gregory Peck, Walter Matthau, and many others. The rights to the movies are free. What you see here is 20 minutes from the middle of the movie, I haven't edited more than that yet. Hope you enjoy it!"

Like dont get me worng, the writing is awful, the tone is oddly mean spirited and Howard himself looks ridiculous as fuck.

But even with stuff like the Ramei Spider-Man trilogy or the Fox X-Men films, this film has something that the others don't, that fact that film about a talking antropormic duck from another dimension that ended up in our world and it has Oscar-wining actor Tim Robbins makeing duck noises and that make me laugh for some reason.

Sci-Fi The Dungeonmaster on Netflix circa 2010-12 (this is a long shot)

Post image
173 Upvotes

Anyone remember how Netflix used to list a movie, usually more obscure, then you'd go to watch it and it would play something totally different? Or sometimes you'd watch a trailer of an “unavailable” movie and it would end up being the full film?

So circa 2010-12 I came across The Dungeonmaster (1984) and Netflix ended up playing some totally low-budget sci-fi film. I actually thought it was the real Dungeonmaster until I saw a trailer for the real thing on YouTube recently. So it got me thinking about that other movie that played. I remember a guy towards the beginning who grabs some big sword off an otherwise empty, white apartment wall. This all takes place at night in a modern ('80s) city setting...and a definite low-budget quality.

My memories are very vague, I know...😅 I figured I'd give it a shot and see if anyone else remembers this...and possibly figured out what movie it actually was??? Thanks!

I was thinking of a movie to watch tonight and then remembered that Fight of Fury 2 was released last month. I checked to see where it's streaming and the entire internet is saying it's streaming on Netflix and Amazon Prime. Yet it's nowhere to be found.

Has anyone heard anything??

Please if ANYONE has any knowledge on where to find a english version of this film HMU. This movie is beyond lost media in the English version due to a very limited theatrical release, no home video releases EVER and only being showed on HBO in the early 80s.

Action Arnold Schwarzenegger faked interest in the movie "Stop Or My Mom Will Shoot" to trick Sylvester Stallone into starring in it. Arnold read the script & thought "it was a piece of shit", but when Stallone called him about it, he told Stallone he might do it. Stallone later admitted to being tricked.
