Wondering what people’s favorite “bad” movies are. Can be low budget, box office flops, foreign, so bad it’s good, whatever. I’m pretty big on Cannon Group stuff and cheesy Turkish pop cinema (Tarkan vs. the Vikings, etc.). Mostly go for 80s stuff as that’s my generation.

    Dagon. It’s basically HP Lovecraft’s “Shadow Over Innsmouth” except it’s set in probably Spain I think. It’s silly and gorey and frankly terrifying, definitely worth the watch

      One of the better adaptations (well, one of the entertaining at least) of HPL imo. It’s hard to capture the feel of his stories. The only really “Lovecraftian” thing I can say that really felt like it succeeded without extra cheese was season one of True Detective.
