Attack of the 80s maniac

I'm compiling a list of movies that are So Bad They Must Be Good.

I already have a few which I haven't seen and think will fit this category nicely. Examples of "so bad it's good":

- They Live
- Dirty Dancing
- Triple X (we saw it on friday -- holy shitty hilarious movie!)
- Showgirls
- Basic Instinct


And here's a list of rotten ones which I haven't seen, but am guessing they are brilliant stinkers:

- Swept Away, with Madonna (any movie with Madonna?)
- Glitter, with Mariah Carey
- The Postman, with Kevin Costner
- Too Fast Too Furious


erm... can you give me some ideas?

how about Army Of Darkness? or Zapped! you can never go wrong with scott baio.

and oh my goodness, i LOVE They Live. that line where he talks about chewing bubblegum and kicking some ass has to be one of the best one-liners ever!

ah, i forgot to mention Duel (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067023/)! and The Gumball Rally (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0074597/)!

i have seen way too many cheesy movies in my lifetime!
