It's a cinematic masterpiece and I can't be convinced otherwise
You can't be convinced because you're already correct
The film is about a tire that comes to life and kills people with psychokinetic powers.
Amazing.
“Okay. We’re done. You can go home now…”
Leprechaun in the hood
A friend with weed is a friend indeed but a friend with gold is better I'm told.
That was funny. Thanks for the reminder

Birdemic and Velocipastor.
Did anyone mention "Troll 2", famously bad, notable because in spite of the title it has no trolls in it?
2.9 on IMDB!
They’re eating her! And then they’re going to eat me! Oh my gooooooooooooooooooood
Chopping Mall is terrible fun.
I’d say marathoning Friday The 13th movies is worth a go. For what it’s worth, the fourth and sixth movie are legitimately good, but the rest teeter somewhere between entertaining b-movie and pure trash.
Thankskilling. A turkey goes on a murdering spree. Nuff said. "goggle gobble motherfucker"
You can find it for free everywhere.
Dead Alive, one of Peter Jackson's (yes, THAT Peter Jackson) first films.

More blood than any other movie I've ever seen, and absolutely hilarious...intentionally. A must-see.
Rubber!
This movie about a tire blew its audiences heads off!
A definitive must watch!!

Terrorvision
Sssssss (note: not Ssssss, fuck that cheap knockoff)
Lawnmower Man (read the book first, then watch the movie, then go WTF did I just watch)
Nothing but Trouble (although this is more of a comedy. It is very clearly poking fun at Centralia and Pennsylvania)
Look Who's Talking Now

Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time. It brings me back. I can smell the independent movie rental place, the one with the low ceilings and the wall of NES games. Simpler times.
Lawnmower Man (read the book first, then watch the movie, then go WTF did I just watch)
I'm not sure that one gets back around to being good. Nailed the WTF part though. As a corollary, you can do the same with The Mangler. I saw the movie first, thought it was unremarkable. Then I saw it in one of the King short story compilations and was curious to see what they changed. It's even shorter than Lawnmower Man, like two pages. And they made it into a whole damn movie.
Look Who's Talking Now
...wait what
…wait what
Haha whoops, my bad. I always get that confused with Eraserhead.
Eraserhead
... wait what
Willy's Wonderland VelociPastor Tucker and Dale vs. Evil (though this one is actually good)
Dude Bro Party Massacre III and Velocipastor should satiate hunger for B movies.
FYI, there's no Dude Bro Party Massacre 1 or 2; just 3.
Each and every Final Destination movie.
Everyone dies stupidly and horribly, just sit back and wait.
Any Toxic Avenger movie
Zombie 4: After Death starring Jeff Stryker https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094620/
The Covenant (2006)
David DeCoteau 1313 series, The Brotherhood series, Voodoo Academy series.
Boar (2017). It’s so bad, it’s good.
- Revamped - a very bad vampire movie written by, directed by, and starring the same man
- Death Bed: The Bed That Eats - a horrible 70s horror movie with a very literal title
- From Dusk till Dawn
I'm also including some movies that are horror comedies that are actually good and fun on purpose in case those strike the same chord with you. Some aren't strictly comedic, but I think they're all fun.
- Cabin in the Woods
- Barbarian
- Get Out
- Housebound
- Slither
- Tucker & Dale vs. Evil
- most of the Evil Dead movies
- You're Next
- Pearl
- The Guest
- Shaun of the Dead / Hot Fuzz
- What We Do in the Shadows
Slither
Now that's one I haven't heard in a long while. When they open up that barn door and find the one woman...oh boy.
Birdemic
Birdemic 2
Birdemic 3
Oh and Ice Cream Man, starring Clint Howard.
I would recommend the Ginger Snaps movies. I caught them on the SyFy channel a while back, and they're hilariously bad.
Brain Dead (might be Dead Alive or something in your locale).
I kick arse for the lord!
Terrible? This movie is hilarious and is also Peter Jackson!
Hope you like gore tho.
Freddy vs Jason was billed as a horror film but it's really funny, imo. I don't like horror. They leaned into the cheesey bits.
I actually watched this one several years after it was released, but I think it ticks all the check marks you want.
The Gate (1987)
Bubba Ho-Tep. You'll either think it's terrible or the best movie ever.
Death Spa!!! It's one of my favs of all time and I never see anyone talk about it. It's like actually good. Like, it's simultaneously so-bad-it's-good, but also just good on its own. Let me know if you check it out, I'd love to hear what you think!
