Jacob's Ladder, if you've never seen it.

Monster Squad, if you're in the mood for something a bit more whimsical.

I'd recommend The Dark Half, but I don't remember if the movie is actually good, or if the fact that I really love the original story is clouding my perception of it.

Funnily enough that Malignant movie I mentioned is VERY derivative of The Dark Half

I mean thats Red Letter Media though. Theyve made an art of picking everything apart the way Gordon Ramsay does with a plate of food.

Ive seen far worse when it comes to horror flicks. Id give it a solid 6.5/10

The problem is, you have to separate the concept of "I enjoy this" from "This is good". Those are two different things.

It's possible to discuss various aspects of filmmaking in relatively objective ways (cinematography, writing/script quality, acting, budget, special effects, blatant influences, etc), making very definitive statements concerning whether or not a movie is good. But plenty of bad movies can be entertaining or fun in their own ways (depending on the viewer's own biases and preferences), so it's possible for a movie to be both terrible and enjoyable.

Even sticking to RedLetterMedia, both Mike and Jay are huge fans of terrible movies, and freely cop to it fairly regularly. Their love of pure schlock is pretty much why they do Best of the Worst in the first place - because it can be fun to get a group of friends together and watch/joke about absolute garbage films, and have a fun time enjoying it. But it doesn't really alter the fact that the movie you're watching is a piece of crap.

People who say "Ehh, it's just a popcorn movie" or "Just turn your brain off and enjoy it" are really just saying they don't care about or want to talk about the object aspects of a movie as opposed to their subjective perception of it. Which is fine, but it's pretty much the antimatter opposite of film criticism or discussion. You kind of need to talk more about the objective things for that sort of discussion to be meaningful at all.

To be fair, they recommended it. Their main criticism was the tone of the movie, and they weren't sure whether it was suppose to be intentionally schlocky. Jay wants the director to make more movies like this. But he's a sex pervert.
