What's your guilty pleasure movie?
 
I'm not talking porn... I'm talking about those really lame or weird movies that you absolutely love but when you admit that you like them, people think your nuts... or the movie that you've seen millions of times but will stop what you're doing just to watch it.

My guilty pleasure "bad" movie is Mommy Dearest - which was on Oh! tonight. I love that movie - Joan Crawford was soooo evil.

My guilty pleasure "good" movie is Witness... it's always on tv and I always have to watch it. Plus, it's a good movie.

The new DVD release of Witness is pretty good ... a nice documentary accompanies it as an extra.

My "good" movie is and always will be The Great Escape. Despite having purchased this movie I watch it every single time I encounter it on TV.

Some of the "bad" ones:

Mars Needs Women
The Deserter (It's a Western, but I saw it in a theater on my birthday as a child, along with a rerelease of Billy the Kid vs. Dracula)
Nearly Any Black and White Horror Film from Universal Pictures (Dracula, Frankenstein, The Wolfman, The Mummy, and the assorted sequels)
The Hammer Horror films (mostly starring Christopher Lee)
You've Got Mail

My guilty pleasure favorite for 20 years has been "Critters". I watch it every time I can find it on and it still cracks me up just as much as the first time. (What ever happened to the USA Network "Up All Night" movies?)

The best movie for me has to be "The Lion In Winter". The dialog is absolutely incredible, it almost makes me want to learn French so I could read the original play.

If Tremors is on TV, I'll usually watch it.

I always cry when they watch the old home movie, and Kiefer starts sniffling because he misses his mom and dad, and realizes what an asshole he is.

My guilty pleasure movies:

Cheesy--French Kiss
Good--The Road Warrior

I just got the "killer special edition" so American Psycho joins my list. And Fight Club.

Kagen4o4 09-14-2005 04:54 AM

fight club is just a given, i thought it didnt need to be mentioned.

Griff 09-14-2005 05:50 AM

That is also a violation of the first rule.

Highlander and Highlander: Endgame

They're horrible, but I love them.

melidasaur 09-14-2005 03:30 PM

Oooo - I love the Highlander... there can be only one! I need to see that movie again soon.
