Some people may claim that these are bad, if not terrible movies. But, these are the best worst movies, which by our math means that these are therefore great movies.

We guarantee that you will have a great time with each of these movies. At times you will howl with laughter at their awfulness, at other times you will howl with delight over the crazy nonsense you are seeing on your screen. These are not films that are easily forgotten.
