    Oh man, threads like this make me feel old - I know all of them and have seen them in my youth during the 80s/90s of the last millenium...

    To add a few to the list - at least in my eyes - the following movies are so bad that they are good:

    - Braindead (I managed to trick my teacher into watching this movie in our ehtics/ethic philosophies class in school - a substitute class for religion class of which I got kicked out for persistently questioning the validity of what was taught )

    - The Warriors

    - Tremors


    That's what I can come up with at the drop of a hat - I know a lot more and will post later.
    I read this so called Bible, and found it to be a third rate story in which this so called 'jesus' is nothing more than a shameless lampooning of Brian, which has inspired joy and laughter in millions.

    oh come on, Excalibur is a classic
    sure it's cheesy in some respects like how all the knights never seem to take off their armour even when eating or sleeping (god, pity the squire who has to clean out those suits of armour lol)

    how can u forget captain picard in armour, around the time he played Gurney Halleck in Dune (would Dune be considered 'so bad it's good/cult classic'?)

    Manos: Hands of Fate......but that should go without saying.

    Imdb says the entire budget was 15,000. WOW!
    Not really sure what to say about it in a review, so here is the entire movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdBchFDwWY0
    I'm making a challenge here......try to last more then an hour WITHOUT the help of MST3K and I'll truly be impressed.

    In addition to Manos (god, that movie was so bad), I would also like to nominate:

    - Parts: The Clonus Horror
    - Secret Agent Super Dragon (But watch this under the Mystery Science Theater 3000 narration)
    - Tommy Wiseau's The Room

    you must spread some rep around before giving it to RubiconDecision again

    great review mate, loved the analysis on the pagan/christian phallic/freudian imagery; made me consider Excalibur differently; what was confusing for me was the pacing of the film; how much time had passed since the moment Arthur came upon Guinevere and Lancelot and his becoming sick? cuz somehow in that period of time, Lancelot had gone crazy with guilt and become a preacher.
    but great, trippy sequences with Sir Perceval though.

    it's also got nostalgic factor for me as well, (plus an early role for Liam Neeson as Sir Gawain).
    i really hope someone makes another film based on morte 'd'arthur, or more specifically on the Grail Quest.

    Thankskilling


    The trailer says enough, this monstrosity was so bad, that I'm pretty sure that it was intentional. Got some great lulz though.

    This is a movie that nobody should take seriously, not even for one second. That said, everything about this movie was broken, from the acting to the plot down to the technical stuff like the flat lighting. That's the most time I'll spend picking this movie apart since it wasn't a serious effort. This is the type of movie you watch with friends just to make fun of how bad the story, characters and plot are, and if you're a film/video student/professional, can laugh at how poorly made the movie itself is. Luckily the movie was only an hour, the vulgar, one-liner spewing turkey could only take it so far. All in all, it succeeds its purpose, it's vulgar fun for those movie nights with your buddies.

    A great film.
