A couple movie Guilty Pleasures for me are "Jawbreaker" and "Little Nicky". Both of these movie are deficiant in good acting and strong humor, but I just love the dialog in Jabreaker and the stupid hilarity in Little Nicky.
Do you have a movie that you love but know that in essence its bad?

I can think of two off the top of my head. The first one is Spice World. It definitely falls under the "it's so stupid it's funny" category. The other one is Xanadu. At least I know that has made an impression on others as well because it's now a hit musical in New York. LOL

Vanilla Sky has a lot of acting issues for many people and I can understand them...but time and time again its corny premise and sappiness is a guilty pleasure for me and I actually like it.

Vanilla Sky I actually liked alot..even if most people tell me they did not like it. I think it was rather entertaining, even if it has some glaring mistakes...

I like Cry Baby,Spice World, andLittle Shop Of Horrors (1986). All three are fun to watch, They aren't Shakespeare or Oscar worthy but I love to watch them.

My guilty pleasure is the oldie Beatmaster. Yes, the acting is bad and the dialog is bad and the special effects are really bad. But I guess I just like Marc Singer without a shirt on. Sorry.

I think that nearly everything I like is terrible.
I enjoy cheesy horror films, like 'Cursed', 'Ginger Snaps', & the 'Scream's.
In fact, I think most film aficionados would cringe at the very sight of my DVD rack. It has a few redeeming features, I suppose. Examples that are coming to mind without looking being 'Fight Club' and 'The Outsiders', as well as a few works by Tarantino. (but then again, depending on the critic, that might make things worse.)
