A real oddity is "The Terror Of Tiny Town"

It is a midget western. The actors ride Shetland ponies and for some inexplicable reason a penguin walks across a scene staged in a bar. There is also a barbershop quartet thrown in for good measure. A few songs are also sprinkled into it.

Like Don't play Us Cheap, this is also available on Amazon.

Anyone else have others ?

Most of the quote on quote "parody movies" of 1999-present. Those abominations are an embarassment to film in the history of the human race.

Oh Roxy, there are so many I can think of!

I'll start with Wild in the Streets.

A hot young rock singer ends up being elected president of the united states and institutes "retirement camps" for all old people. Once they are interred, they are force fed LSD. Everyone gets addicted and it gets more insane from there.

Best part: it stars Shelley Winters in what has to be one of her bat-**** craziest performances ever.

Also available for purchase or rent (streaming) on amazon.

I have to say the dubbed versions of the old monster movies. Those were hilarious and weird. My favorite of those is Ghidorah the 3 headed monster. The fight between Godzilla and Rodan was ridiculous.

There was another one called The Valley of Gwangi. That was about a dinosaur in a Mexican circus or something like that.

I can't remember the title, but another one I'm thinking of had dinosaurs, a cave boy and I forget what else. It was set modernly for the time, I think.

Odd --

Cecil B. DeMille's MADAM SATAN -- a bizarro musical comedy hybrid from the early 1930s. A fairly rote comedy of infidelity goes full wackadoo gonzo as the action moves to a high camp art deco costume party on a zeppelin. There are no words, except maybe "who wants to go to hell with Madam Satan?" Essential.

Otto Preminger's SKIDOO -- Uh, yeah. A would-be satire on 1960s excesses, there's just no excuse for it to be as bad as it is, and it occasionally takes flight into high weirdness, especially when Carol Channing is onscreen, giving 250,000% in each and every frame she appears in, seriously no one's ever worked harder to put something over. Poor Jackie Gleason seems absolutely mortified. But the garbage can ballet and Channing's performance of the title song make it worth sitting through at least once.

Now I remember the 1 movie I was talking about. It was called Dinosaurus. It took place on a Caribbean Island. 2 dinosaurs were discovered and they came to life one night, along with a caveman. And the main character ended up with some boy from the island. That's all I remember.

Speaking of giving til it hurts: Nicole Kidman in THE PAPERBOY.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Thanks Mr Roxy for the thread.

I can enjoy a lot of "bad movies"

One movie that was so poor I had to "forward" to the end was "Trog" starring Joan Crawford - what a sad way to end her movie career!

Trog was a winner - not

On the male side was Ray Milland . He had 2 winners.Frogs and The Thing With 2 Heads which has to be seen to be believed .

Empire of the Ants with a pre dynasty Joan Collins being devoured by paper mache ants. You can actually see the guys operating the wires holding the ant together.
