Absolutely nothing... That is until I take all of Dano's earlier suggestions from another post and combine them into one, right here!!!! In order to keep a better flow, I have remove 2 other ideas from the mess to make this work. But flow it shall....
Bad movies: Are they really that bad? These are movies that you love to hate, or just plain old hate loving them. You can surely think of a title with no problem, but this post is not about naming a movie, rather everything else involved in it.. You have little idea how much work goes into making a bad movie.
I have to consider myself as a guide today and I'm about to show you how to identify these movies. Trust me, no one likes really avoiding a bad movie because it gives you so much more to talk about. We'll start by breaking a movie down, from title, to plot, cast, direction, etc.... The following will teach you how to quickly identify and spot these little gems in a heartbeat.
Title: This is a key element and will speak volumes of the movie
1- Amount of words in the title... The more words, the worse the movie in most cases. Look for a title that has a minimum of 5 words example "Plan 9 From Outer Space" see 5 words and a bad movie. Now take "The Attack of The Killer Tomatoes" 6 words and even a worse movie. May I suggest just looking for movies with over 6 words in the title and you have a sure winner. Once a title hits 10 words, you have already read the book, so you can skip the movie.
2- title content... Look for key words in the title like, tomato,
Misspelled words.. Clownz, Boyz any word with a Z at the end
Made up Words: Jumanji, Zardoz note: Zardoz fits 2 descriptions
Cover
1- some kids doodling
2- 1/2 cartoon and 1/2 real
3- just the title... too many words
4- a large group of people fleeing some kind of monster
5- anything that has a majority of the cast on the cover, even if they are playing 2 roles
6- anything containing your house, or neighborhood in it
Cast:
1- No one you ever saw before
2- You and perhaps some neighbors
3- Students from High School, or college
4- and my personal favorite..... the homeless
Plot: simple anything with the following keywords
invasion, plot, plan, thriller etc....
Description:
1- Sit on the edge of your seat
2- have to close your eyes - always wondered why.. I think I would miss the movie
3- Just like (insert title) usually another bad movie
4- Don't give away the surprise ending... I just love that one, so don't get me started
Location... yup, just like buying a house - location, location, location
1- A ghetto, or ghost town
2- A vacant lot
3- Anything outside of Hollywood and no real set
Director
1- college student needs credit for his film course
1- has one body part, or another in every other scene
Candy in the movie world
Ahhh, now what to eat during a bad movie. The choice of course is always the viewer's, but I do have some simply suggestions to better help you through the movie
1- Jawbreaker's They will last a whole movie unless yo try and chew one. The you may end up with a chipped, cracked, or broken tooth, or teeth
2- Having company It's more fun having friends over to share the pain of the movie. An old time favorite in this case is Ju-Ju Beads. Not only do they last, but they are great for tossing into the back of someone's head at the right moment in a horror flick
3- Rasinettes This is an acceptable substitute for Ju-Ju Beads when hitting a woman. They'll understand
4- Snowcaps These are great to nibble on during a thriller.
We may have rain over this weekend, so I suggest you rush to your local shop and rent one. While you're out hit the supermarket and stock up on some candy..
Enjoy the weekend, I have already made my selection and I hope you enjoy yours. So I hope you found this little guide helpful in your quest for the perfect bad movie
