What is your favourite 'so bad it's good' films apart from this one - Passenger 57 (1992) Discussion

[–] smackajacka 16 years ago

funny how these 'so bad its good' movies are a billion times better than the utter garbage we see in action movies today. I dont care how 'predictable' or cheesy this was, movies like crank are plain awful compared to this. Films in the 90s actually told a story bit by bit..films today use any excuse for high speed camera movements, excessive cgi, crap music and recycled plots we've all seen before. I find it unbeleivable that today's generation prefers crap like that, I really dont know where it went wrong...

My vote would be the "The Punisher" (orignal version). I used to love that movie so much when I was younger, but now when I watch it, I'm like "It's not all that." Yet it's still a favortie of mine.

i agree, now movies are pretty bad but use a more fair example than Crank. That's just terrible. In any decade, century, or millenium.

I don't know if it's because I was only a kid when I saw Road House but I still like it all these years later. I just watched Passenger 57 for the first time and I know I'll never watch it again.

One of my favorite bad movies is Cyborg with Van Damme. I saw it when I was a kid and thought it was crap but when I was a little older (20s) I ended up loving it! Weird I know.

On the other hand, I saw Judge Dredd when it came out and thought it sucked and I still think it sucks.

I thought that was ok for an indy horror with high cost & low budget.

I agree with all those, esp Road House. I seen Surviving the Game the first time last month, good call on that one too. I d like to throw a few more out there Men at Work, They Live, and pretty much any early Arnold movie.

Replacement Killers - Chow yun fat. I LOVE that movie :D

One thing that sells all the old 90s action movies for me is the music, just listen to that late 80s/90s guitar, electronic drums and all. Bad Boys had it, and oh my word the mother of all amazing soundtracks has to go to Tango & Cash.
