What Are Your Favorite Guilty Pleasure films?

[REBerg]

And Little Shop of Horrors, 1986 version. So much fun!

 

[Cathbad]

OK, I gotta watch that one, REBerg.

 

[Droflet]

For me Wing Commander. I know it's crap but it's my kind of crap. Sometimes. If I've been drinking.

 

[Vladd67]

Fiend without a face is a great film, shows its age but I still like it.

 

[REBerg]

Comedy/drama/satire directed by the late, great Robert Altman​

But It was still better then Phantom Menace.

[reiver33]

What, the Penisorus???

 

[Cathbad]

LOL yup

 

[reiver33]

Easy to defeat, they lack binocular vision

 

[WaylanderToo]

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow Audiences did give this film a chance. It is a very enjoyable retro sic fi adventure film .

I really wanted to like this and was looking forward to seeing it... I actually preferred TPM

 

[Cat's Cradle]

Oh, me too, WaylanderToo! I loved how the film looked, and adored its premise...but the story wasn't quite as good as the artistic vision, IMO (but I really loved the giant robots! Any giant robots, really though, to be honest. ).

 

[Khuratokh]

Enemy Mine.
A human and a Drak have to overcome their differences and try to survive on an inhospitable planet.
The movie title that famously test audiences were confused about, so they added a bit about a steel mine.

An underrated film.

 

[JunkMonkey]

I think just about everything I watch falls into this category.

 

[Rodders]

Enemy Mine was a wonderful movie. I remember going to see it at the cinema.

In hindsight I shouldn't have added it to this list. It's a bit cheesy but the production design is topnotch, especially considering the budget. and occasiononally it manages to pull on the heart strings.
I own it on dvd and frequently lend it out. But then same goes for the first two "Mummy" films.

Creature 1985 is an aline Knock off and a surprisingly good science fiction film.

Creature 1985 is an aline Knock off and a surprisingly good science fiction film.

And a near perfect example of the 'unexpected but inevitable event that set our protagonists off in a different direction' that should, according to the Hollywood formula, occur at the 15 minute mark. The only time I watched Creature I had the On Screen Display of my DVD player running because I was researching the 15 minute rule in crap films. In Creature the ground beneath a safely landed spaceship collapses - thus changing a rescue mission into a survival mission - bang on 15 minutes elapsed running time.

Thinking about it, my greatest Guilty Pleasure Movie has to be Starcrash - which just has everything you could wish for in a movie.
