The "so BAD it's good" MEGA-LIST!
I have SCOURED the internet for other lists and recommendations, and these are the movies that are known to be SO BAD... that they are good.
Whether or not they were right, is debatable. Some of these movies are intentionally bad, and others are just so bad that you will get brain damage from watching them.
*IMPORTANT NOTE - most of these movies are INSANELY BORING, and are miserable to watch. Watch at your own risk.*
