Other So-Bad-They're-Good Favorites

My husband and his buddies swear by Big Trouble in Little China [1986]... — Cassy

Who couldn't love Encino Man [1992]? Pauly Shore + Sam the Hobbit + The Mummy Slayer = the most ridiculously plotted, insanely likable high school movie ever. This movie makes me want to stick my head under an Icee machine every time I see it, and I think that's a good thing. — The Boomtown Rat

Jennifer 8 [1992] is a REALLY bad movie in which Uma Thurman is this blind chick in danger of being killed by a serial killer who's targeting — yes — blind chicks. This movie contains the worst final line EVER: ''I remember red.'' And yet. Why do I find myself watching if I catch it on cable? — cbw

I love Spice World [1997], the Spice Girls movie. Yes, it underutilizes Meat Loaf as a bus driver with very few lines, but I watch it for the explosion of girl power alone. Watching this movie makes me long for a reunion. But until then, I'll just dust off my platform shoes and boombox and keep dreaming. — Cassie Belek

Pee-Wee's Big Adventure [1985]: ''I'm a loner, Dottie; a rebel.'' I can't get enough. — Anjeliki

Con Air [1997]. I can recite the whole movie line for line. I even went so far as to put Trisha Yearwood's ''How Do I Live" in my wedding! — amie

Oh my God. Twister [1996] rocks! When the tornado lifted the cow and carried it away, you had to wonder if it would end up in Oz. Given the stupidity of the movie, I think it might have worked. — bluenote

Girls Just Want to Have Fun [1985]. Starring Sarah Jessica Parker, Helen Hunt, and Shannen Doherty(!), it was like a 90-minute commercial for Solid Gold. It also leaves you pondering important questions like: Why did Velcro tear away clothing never catch on? — kreddy

Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion [1997] is without a doubt the best ''bad'' movie ever made. Anyone who was marginalized in school can relate, and the throwaway lines are priceless. Maybe it's because I'm a former ''husky'' kid, but to this day when I leave for work in the morning, I take one last look in the mirror and tell my wife, ''I can't believe how cute I look.'' I'm only kinda kidding. — Markus Boos

I LOVE the movie Troll [1986]... How can you not love a movie with Julia Louis-Dreyfus prancing around like a woodland fairy and Sonny Bono as a swingin' bachelor? — Lee

Two magical words for you: Teen Witch [1989]. It's a musical, it's a comedy, it's a coming-of-age story about Louise, a girl who is descended from witches. Worst movie ever? Perhaps, but I watch it every single time it's on, I laugh when [Louise's friend] raps ''Top That,'' and I get just a little gay when the cheerleaders sing ''I Like Boys.'' — Mozz

I love Billy Madison [1995] — despite being completely out of the target audience (read: adult woman), I crack up anytime I think about that movie. What's not to love? Drunken soup slurping. Nudie Magazine Day. Evil Bradley Whitford! Hallucinatory penguins. Catchphrases galore. Despite the fact that critics hate Adam Sandler with a burning passion, I love this movie, and it routinely makes my top five picks for if I got stuck on a deserted island. — Eliza Doolittle
