Everyone has at least one movie they know isn’t very good but can’t help watching whenever it’s on. Maybe the dialogue is terrible, the plot barely holds together, or the special effects haven’t aged well. None of that really matters when a movie is simply fun to watch. Some films have become cult favorites because of their flaws, while others are so entertaining that audiences happily overlook everything that’s wrong with them. Love them or laugh at them, these movies have earned a loyal following for all the right, and sometimes completely wrong, reasons.
Here are 15 terrible movies that are still somehow awesome.
