Movies that are your secret guilty pleasure

[Existentialistme]

I'm hard pressed to think of anything now. But at these moments I'm reminded of the my Highschool Film Teacher who praises classic Western and Noire films.....and also shamefully admitted to liking "From Dusk till Dawn" cause she loves George Clooney.

From Dusk Till Dawn is mine. It's a Tarantino movie that's been sliced directly in half with a Robert Rodriguez movie - what's not to like?
And, you know, jackhammer wooden stake.

Oh, and the sci-fi miniseries 'Alice'. Yes, the special effects were shit, the characters were meh and the ending was pretty blah, but the take on Wonderland and it's inhabitants intrigued me. And at least it was something different.

The Covenant. Taylor Kitsch in a speedo, plus some of the cheesiest dialogue this side of a Kraft dinner advert.

"Ooooh, WITCHY!"

"Let me make you my wee-otch!"

I got a friend that didn't know what the Rocky Horror Picture Show was and saw it with me for the first time going in completely blind. That movie feels like something that would be called a guilty pleasure even if it's a widely known and loved film, and the pleasure I got from getting someone to see it without having any idea what it was going in was just wonderful.

 

[Relish in Chaos]

The Street Fighter live-action film. Truly one of those "so bad it's good" films, with Jean Claude Van Damme playing Guile, and some cheesy martial arts sequences that I happened to enjoy for some reason. The guy that played M. Bison was actually decent as well.

 

[White-Death]

Boku No Pico.

 

[Kinguendo]

Kate & Leopold... although Meg Ryan is queen of the bitches.

 

[PrinceBuffoon]

The Matrix Trilogy. Yes, all three of them. I know the third one is pretty awful, but I still like it.

I watched this on OnDemand and was interested because; it starred Michael Caine, and took place on a tropical island where he had a strange affair with his best friend's adventurous nineteen-year old daughter. What happens on the island -- stays on the island.
Oh, and that catchy theme song:

Blame it on Rio (1984):

"What if things get a bit crazy?
Blame it on Rio.
What if we acted like fools
Broke a few rules...
What do we caaaaare?
Blame it on Riooooooo."

 

[Dead Seerius]

Jesus Christ Superstar and I absolutely hate most musicals. The movie is somewhat of an Easter tradition in my family and no matter how hilariously cheesy the whole "70's Jesus" thing is, the movie is entertaining every time I watch it.

Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story


Possibly the most intelligent stupid comedy of all time. Not to mention its sound track is surprisingly good.

Walk hard....

....hard...

you got that damn song suck in my had again, but still awesome.

OT: Jackie Chan movies. can't even hate myself for it.

Well, maybe a little bit...

 

[The_Waspman]

Would The Rock count? Its pretty much the only Michael Bay film I can watch without my soul bleeding out.

What about Meet Joe Black?

Thats about all I've got...

 

[Chemical Alia]

Dracula Dead and Loving it, but that's not a secret.

 

[Sarah Kerrigan]

The Boondock Sains (already nerf'd. Dammit)

Mostly because my inner girly-girl finds Normand Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanner extremely hot (hell, I just find tham hot in general) With the accents and such..

GAH TALK ABOUT THE MOVIE KERRIGAN

Mostly the story. I find it so over the top, so hillarious...and the vulgar makes my inner child giggle. I'm not religious by any accounts, but the subtext ofi it works with me.

I do like getting my friends addicted to it. Everytime I have a group over I always watch it with them and get them addicted. They blame me all the time and I accept it C: I can also quote the first one line for line if I' watching it. (The second one I'm getting there)

(Also, possibly because I met them in real at a convention counts for something...)

 

[DANEgerous]

Easy, Waterworld. Everyone thinks it is shit but me.

The Fantastic Mr. Fox. I honestly don't know what it is but that movie is hilarious.

okay after going through the comments also this... also why is Princess Bride not mentioned on this thread yet? I love that movie. And yet Boondock saints get all kinds of hits ant i would in no way say it is a guilty pleasure just a good movie.

 

[ThePixel]

I have a secret guilty pleasure for chick flicks and romantic types like notting hill

 

[Fluffythepoo]

Ugly Americans?

 

[Sehnsucht Engel]

D.E.B.S. I know it's a pretty bad movie, but there still seems to be some actual chemistry between the two main characters that falls in love. I've watched it twice at least _>

 

[Greni]

Van Helsing, X-Men Origins Wolverine and both Hellboy movies. All of them incredibly silly, delightfully hammy and highly enjoyable.

Captcha: poetic justice. Someone is having fun with this.

Edit: Someone upstairs said Jackie Chan, and made me remember all the 'bad' Chan movies I enjoy. Ironically movies that he had a major productive/directive role in, like The Tuxedo, The Medallion, The Myth, and all other 'The badly-used-plot-device'.

Would The Rock count? Its pretty much the only Michael Bay film I can watch without my soul bleeding out.

The Rock is an exception to Michael Bay's work in that it's fantastic and can be enjoyed by all without guilt. Also the music in that movie is great.

My guilty pleasure would be UHF. It's not a good movie, but I still enjoy it. I could say the same for Ace Ventura 2 actually.
