Breakin (though i always thought it was called 'breakdance') used to be my favourite movie as a kid! Turbo, Ozone and Kelly rocked my world!
Breakin' was the original title. It was changed to Breakdance: The Movie for the English market.

oh, cool. Why change it?
I still have Breakin' 1 and Breakin' 2 on vhs taped off itv from the 80's. :cool: it has some old skool adverts between them like that John Smith's one with the dancing jack russel. :D

Featuring a guy with a moustache that saves the world. It was the best funniest worst crap I've ever watched.

I love this film. It seems strange as it draws on a lot of Chinese mythology unfamiliar to Western audiences, but it certainly isn't bad. This has got some of the most spectacular wire work ever. The priest saves the world with his eyebrows btw, not his moustache. :)

I bought Hudson Hawk on VHS as soon as it came out, and I've never met another person on the face of the planet who has liked it.

Your not alone there. I like Hudson Hawk too :o

Would you like to swing on a star :D

One of my favourite films is Cool Runnings...i cry at the end every time :o
 
I've spent ages trying to remember a futuristic post nuke movie that me and my mates watched several times back in the 80's. I'm sure back then it was a straight to video kind of film. I love IMDB sometimes.

http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0085124/

The truly great/awful Bronx Warriors "A Heavy Metal Journey Into An Urban Hell Where Everything Was Done Wrong!" :D

IIRC I liked it because i fancied the bloke in the lead role :o

Edit: I've just found it on Amazon and i'm really tempted to get it :o

oh zenie! :(


:D

I can't help it, I watched it as a kid and it was my favourite, I used to come downstairs on a saturday morning before my Mum was up and watch it on video, practically every week fior years.

I had such a crush on Richard Chamberlain (is he still alive?) :o

I love that bit when David Patrick Kelly has the beer bottles on his fingers and is clicking them together making the creepy ringing sound. "Waaaarrrrrriiiorsss, come out to pla-ay!" and the DJ on the Pirate station who send the messages to the all the "street people with an ear for the action".

Great film but I didn't fancy the guy in the lead roll. :)

That movie has been the basis for so many hip-hop tunes as well... i remember P.Diddy (for a crappy example) did that bottle clanging together thing at the beginning of a song by Notorious B.I.G but instead of 'Warrior's' he says 'Baaad Booy, Come out to plaaaayyy.' :(

Oh Please.. :mad:

Stay toooned, Boppers...

Exactly - this film is so not crap.

(Mind you, I also like Hudson Hawk, so will not be offended if my opinion is disregarded.)

Now if we're talking crap horror movies...that deserves a thread all of its own.
 
This thread has reminded me that I have a DVD of Denzel Washington's first film Carbon Copy, which sounds so utterly terrible and racially insensitive that I suspect it may be a contender for worst film ever. I'll let you know what I think of it. Perhaps 'The Adventures of Pluto Nash'is be about to get toppled from it's position at the top of my list of terrible films.
