    The cringe is if you go halfway. If you really commit -- really achieve escape velocity -- well, you've gone someplace different.

        There are many (most?) Nazisploitation movies that involve torture/blood, and even though it's fake you're just like, "Outside of S&M fans, who the hell found this hot and wanted to beat off to it?"

          I was thinking in terms of High Weirdness, not arousal.

            If any of you remember Title Wave (IIRC, that was the name) rental franchise, they had a section called "Bad, Bad, Bad, Bad Cinema." It was horrible. Swamp Thing might have been the "best" movie, as far as quality in that section. My friends and I would take one night a month, and draw straws to see who got to pick a movie from that section, and watch it. Hoo boy, there were some bad ones.

            Even watched this wreck of a movie:
            https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092285/
            Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

              I think the best bad movie I ever watched was "Sorority Babes at the Slimeball BowlaRama". It was on USA's Up All Night one evening.

                USA Up All Night should be considered a national treasure.

                Of course, then Tarantino revived the "bad movies" a few years ago (which I loved, btw) starting with the Grindhouse double-feature, which inspired stuff like Hobo With A Shotgun, Bounty Killer, and Guns Girls And Gambling, and many others. Movies that were bad, but they were SUPPOSED to be bad, as a tribute to the true B-movies.

                  Watched Patrik, Age 1.5 tonight. Swedish film about a married gay couple who think they are adopting a 1.5 year-old "Patrick" and get a 15 year-old homophobic kid with a criminal record by mistake. Didn't expect much from it, but it was good. Not great, but definitely worth the watch.

                        Fever Pitch (original).

                        colin firth and mark strong and ruth gemmell were quite good. gunners >>> redsox. young kid better than having to suffer through the other ticket holders and their sponges and divorced seat keepers.

                        only drawback was ione skye in the remake and not here (underrated babe!!) 'nuff said.
