Me enjoying a movie does in no way exclude it from being a bad movie.
Seeing as I do enjoy watching bad movies. Terrible acting, bad cuts, awful dialog. I love it.
I think there's a certain "The Producers" threshold beyond which a merely bad piece of art becomes a captivating car-wreck. But it's an esoteric mix of elements. For every "Rocky Horror Picture Show" there's a dozen "Mac and Me"s.
Wasn't Rocky Horror shot on an absolutely shoestring budget? I feel they deserve a lot of leeway for that.
A shoestring budget and a half dozen of the best actors of the next decade
I read it the opposite way because Rocky horror is so well done imo. I don't even know what Mac & me is so i assumed it was the garbage end if the spectrum. Though if it's one of the movies they made in IASIP then nothing make sense.
This is why I love Nicolas Cage films. But they're intentionally bad, campy and corny as an anti style.
Oh, Hi Mark
I love bad movies so much
