21 ‘Bad’ Movies That Are Actually Good
A bad movie can be just as enjoyable as a good one — sometimes even more so. As someone has probably said, all good movies are alike, but each bad movie is bad in its own way. A “good” movie might be a long, slow descent into the darkest parts of the human psyche, but you’re not always in the mood for that sort of thing, and while Glitter has a 6 percent Rotten Tomatoes score, it also reminds you of being a carefree middle schooler. No judgment here.
Nor from Redditor VoiceOfWizdom, who has a self-proclaimed “soft spot for bad movies,” particularly The Return of the Living Dead. They described it as “gory, ridiculous, trashy — so, you know, pretty much everything my 16-year-old self wanted in a movie.” They asked r/Movies for their favorite “‘so bad it’s actually good movie,” and while a significant portion of the discussion involved convincing them The Return of the Living Dead is a legitimately good movie, the pleasant stinkers abounded.
