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.

Horrors of Spider Island (1960)

B&W, german production, bad dubbing, 10 girls 1 guy, Stanley Kubrick's cinematographer, uranium, exploitation flick, plane crash, plenty of WTF, island, oh and some spiders.

Step into bizzaro world.

A few versions on archive.org. Apparently the restored one includes the original German adult content that was cut for the 1962 rerelease.

I really like the first Human Centipede. It's so different than anything else out there. I didn't really care for the second installment, though, and the third is just too far out there for me.

I can't recommend a name off the top of my head, but Amazon Prime Video and Tubi are treasure troves.

Wow. Rocky Horror Picture Show is not listed in the comments anywhere. It's really fun to watch at midnight in a theater with a crowd, but it's terribly cheesy and stupid, so fits your criteria. Tim Curry's performance is outstanding though.

Also, They Live is fun. Featuring Rowdy Roddy Piper.

One of my favorite low budget creature movies of the time. It's legitimately a great flick.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

for a real stinker, try Boardinghouse(1982) or Cyst (2020).

Zombeavers and Nazi zombies come to mind.

The article says that it got good reviews by both critics and audiences.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it's solid.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oh I agree, but my favorite line just kills it for me, I always laugh whenever I think about it:

Candycaneee, I've got your pink champagne...

Monster Island (2004). I think you'll find it lives up to being so stupid it's great.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Llamageddon 2015 - It was a lot of fun for me.

Pumpkin Head 2: Blood Wings

Or Pumpkin Head OG.

Any of the Scarecrow movies, especially the beach or college ones, but really you want Pumpkin Head 2: Blood Wings.

Splatter Farm. A cheesy as it gets. Looks like it was filmed on a camcorder in the 80’s.
