I’m talking about that movie you saw that was so bad it was good.

    Ninja Squad.

    The directors made a bunch of movies using the same technique: buy footage from unfinished Asian action movies. Splice them with footage of European martial artists sparring in the most bizarrely colourful outfits and Ninja! headbands. Dub in ridiculous dialogue about a vague revenge plot.

    Don’t play any drinking games with this movie. You’ll die of alcohol poisoning before the third act.

    The English dub of the kung fu movie Shaolin V. Ninja. Voices are wildly inconsistent, plot makes no sense. A great time. Pretty sure it’s on YouTube. At least it was some years ago.

      The are a few art house theaters in my city that will do showings of The Room in the same style as like a Rocky Horror showing. People will yell and scream and generally make of the movie in a fun and jovial way. I’ve always wanted to check it out.

    Ninja Terminator

    I believe these films were made from footage of failed East Asian productions that were bought up and then “finished” by an American company cheap. (The director Godfrey Ho is known to do this apparently.)

    There are quite a few Richard Harrison films like this.

    Armageddon is something I watch far too often. It’s not good but it’s very entertaining.

    Slipstream (1989)… check it out if you haven’t seen it. Mark Hamill, Bill Paxton and produced by Gary Kurtz (Star Wars, ESB, American Graffiti, The Dark Crystal)… This was released 5 years after Return of the Jedi with that star power and didn’t even get a US cinema release.

    Troll 2. So many quotable lines and unforgettable scenes. And you don’t even have to watch Troll 1, because there is no Troll 1 - at least not in relation to, or in the context of, this film.
