I don't have any but if if I had to choose "The Green Hornet?" I definitely don't feel guilty liking it (or owning it) but I'm sure others do.

*DrStrangelove* · 08-17-2011, 08:08 AM

Oh and Eyes Wide Shut and Zodiac are NOT guilty pleasures. They're both (underrated) great films.

esteban² · 08-17-2011, 08:19 AM

I'm amazed by the fact there are a lot of titles here that don't belong in a "guilty pleasure" corner.

AlexSing · 08-17-2011, 08:23 AM

Forgot to add An Innocent Man with Tom Selleck, and does Bloodsport count?

Guilty pleasures are marked as "Cheap Thrills" in my Blu-ray collection.

Illy Scorsese · 08-17-2011, 08:33 AM

"The Ninth Gate"

Not a very good movie... Probably 3 outta 5 at best. But I've always liked it for some reason, even though I know it's majorly flawed.

That would be a great film if it had an isolated score soundtrack

I think House of Wax is a GREAT film!

Don't think I'll ever be able to watch it without squinting or running out of the room though! That's part of the fun! Hilton fits in well too. Just my opinion.

My #1 Guilty Pleasure of all is thankfully on Blu-Ray:

Flash Gordon (1980).

Yes, its got cheesy sets and dialogue, the spaceships look like yogurt cartons with fins and the color palette is harsh, but nostalgia is a powerful thing. I saw this movie at the cinema as a kid and read the novelization, perhaps more than any other movie this takes me back to those childhood days.

Besides who can resist a movie with Timothy Dalton, Brian Blessed and Max Von Sydow really hamming it up.

Tango & Cash
Resident Evil 1-4

Cobra coming soon!

El_Jay · 08-17-2011, 09:59 PM

It's not really a guilty pleasure, since I don't think the movie is very good, it was just a cheapie blind buy, but The Slammin' Salmon. A few funny jokes, Michael Clarke Duncan is hilarious, rest of the movie is crap.

A lot of people seem to hate Adventureland, but it's one of my favorite comedies of the past 10 years, so I'm not guilty about it. I will shout that it's a wicked movie from the top of my lungs.

Oooh ooh, The Fantastic Four 1 & 2. Everyone hates them, they are universally derided, I actually like them, and not just for the PQ/AQ. So there!!!

Piranha could fall into this category since a lot of people seemed to miss the point, the satire, the parody. I think it's awesome. It's simultaneously terrific and terrible in just the right doses and the filmmaker clearly knew what he wanted.

Really, looking through my collection always brings a smile to my face, because I'm really not ashamed of any of it.

vidjunkie · 08-17-2011, 10:11 PM

As much as I hate to agree with the member above me, lately for my Son and I, we really have been getting into Piranha 2D & 3D doesn't matter which, and don't laugh LOL, but Drive Angry 2D or 3D, again does not matter which, both movies are very funny and very entertaining.

OH, and I have to agree with the guy a few posts up, Barb Wire is AWESOME too.
