* ''{{Film/The Ten Commandments|1956}}''. The dialogue seems like it was intended to be carved into monuments, not spoken by men who were slow of tongue and speech. Creator/CecilBDeMille did it on purpose, but not for humor: that's just how the dialogue in Biblical epic films and 1950s theater productions works. [[NecessaryWeasel Expected then]], but funny for people who aren't used to those styles.

-->'''Steamboat Willie''': Please, I like America! "Fancy schmancy!" "What a cinch!" "Go fly a kite!" "Cat got your tongue!" "Hill of beans!" WesternAnimation/BettyBoop, what a dish! Creator/BettyGrable, [[ShesGotLegs nice gams]]!... ''(looks around, starts singing to the tune of "Star-Spangled Banner")'' "I say, can you see! I say can you see! I... I say..."

*** Backstory: 'M. Bison' was played by Tony award-winning actor Creator/RaulJulia, also known as Gomez Addams in the 90's ''Addams Family'' movie series. Julia was, when ''Film/StreetFighter'' was filmed, literally dying of a kidney ailment, and you can see it: he looks sick, weak, and emaciated in the film even as he devours the scenery. His doctors had given him his prognosis -- that he didn't have much time left. He gathered his kids and let them pick his next (and final) role, which was M. Bison, as they were all fans of the ''StreetFighter'' games. Julia [[LargeHam flung himself]] [[SoMyKidsCanWatch into the role with all the scene-chewing gusto of a man who cares about nothing but entertaining his own kids.]] As a result, he makes this film enjoyable to those who can enjoy bad films, and better than [[Film/StreetFighterTheLegendOfChunLi the next live-action film made on this subject]].

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxkr4wS7XqY This infamous fight scene]] from the 90s B-movie ''Film/{{Undefeatable}}'' features a KnifeNut antagonist, gratuitous {{overcrank}}ing, ClothingDamage (which for no good reason transforms this clip into a ShirtlessScene), double EyeScream, a woman who does a backflip [[OnlyAFleshWound despite having one of her arms in a cast]], SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic and [[ScreamingWarrior enough screaming to put most metal bands to shame]], to say nothing of the [[WhatTheFuAreYouDoing poorly choreographed fighting itself]]. All in three minutes. What really seals the deal are the {{Pun}}s at the end. If not for this being a serious movie, the screaming alone could qualify as an OverlyLongGag.

* ''Film/TheWidow2020: Near the end of the movie, after Kristina gets separated from Vika, she finds her staring off into space while drool comes out of her mouth. And it's not just a little trickle, either. There's a proverbial [=RIVER=] of drool just pouring out of Vika's mouth. Any attempt to make this PlayedForHorror fails miserably.

** Creator/AnthonyHopkin's Headroll

* The premise of ''Film/SevenPounds'', build up and emotional beating over the head just '''fails spectacularly'''. The main character is unlikable and [[spoiler: delivers the BrokenAesop of the movie by killing himself]]. It basically boils down to the emotional equal of TastesLikeDiabetes.
** This is pretty much caused by the film's cold open where [[spoiler: Tim reports his own suicide]]. You know how the movie's going to end, so it's impossible for the suspense and emotion to actually get to you.

* ''Film/TheTenCommandments''. The dialogue seems like it was intended to be carved into monuments, not spoken by men who were slow of tongue and speech. Creator/CecilBDeMille did it on purpose, but not for humor: that's just how the dialogue in Biblical epic films and 1950s theater productions works. [[NecessaryWeasel Expected then]], but funny for people who aren't used to those styles.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxkr4wS7XqY This infamous fight scene]] from the 90s B-movie ''Film/{{Undefeatable}}'' features a KnifeNut antagonist, gratuitous {{overcrank}}ing, ClothingDamage (which for no good reason transforms this clip into a ShirtlessScene), FoeYay, double EyeScream, a woman who does a backflip [[OnlyAFleshWound despite having one of her arms in a cast]], SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic and [[ScreamingWarrior enough screaming to put most metal bands to shame]], to say nothing of the [[WhatTheFuAreYouDoing poorly choreographed fighting itself]].

----> "They would have RAPED her 50 times, and cut all your FUCKIN' HEADS OFF! WHO ARE YOU?! '''WHOUHANNYOYOU!?'''"

* ''Film/WilliamShakespearesRomeoAndJuliet''. The guns named after swords were ridiculous enough, but the crowning moment comes as Juliet awakens ''just'' as Romeo downs the poison. Best OhCrap look ever, and for a scene meant to be tragic, the comic timing is simply perfect.
** "Fetch me my longsword!" Cue a shotgun...
** Made even better by the fact that the full line is "Fetch me my longsword, ho!" He's talking to his wife.
** "Sword" was the brand name of most of the guns. Juliet had a "Dagger" gun... And yes, Juliet waking from her faked death just in time for Romeo to realize he goofed (it does come across in the acting) did slip from tragedy to black comedy.
*** She looks at him longingly for ten seconds; then he drinks the poison.
*** ''Romeo and Juliet,'' like many of Shakespeare's shows, can be played either way. Though you'd think a comedic version would have fewer giant explosions.
** Then there's the occupational hazard of all Shakespearean adaptations relocated to relatively modern times without altering the script to match: Elizabethan dialogue, spoken in relatively modern times.
** Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio: any time he opens his mouth he makes it abundantly clear that he has no idea what he's saying.
** "You kiss by the book!" It's in the play, too, but the delivery of this line by Creator/ClaireDanes is pure Narm.
** Romeo losing it at Tybalt right before he kills him. Leo's overacting is almost painful, and it's nearly impossible to understand what the hell he's saying when he's screaming that loudly. The way he yells "EITHER THOU, OR I, OR BOTH MUST GO WITH HIM!" over and over, you half expect Tybalt to shout [[Film/ThePrincessBride "STOP SAYING THAT!"]] And it all culminates in Romeo's [[SayMyName hilariously overdone]] Music/PrimalScream as he unloads his gun into Tybalt.
*** The Swedish version didn't subtitle that. Either the translators didn't find it important enough, or they simply couldn't hear what he was shouting...
** The scene where Juliet wakes up to discover Romeo's dead body is meant to be moving and tragic but is rendered hilarious by Clare Danes' terrible crying.
** Mercutio crossdressing in a silver, glittery tube top and miniskirt... Then pulling Romeo's invitation to the party from the bottom of said miniskirt. After seeing that, it's impossible to take his death scene seriously.
*** Even more hilarious when you realize that the dude playing Mercutio is Harold Perrineau aka Michael from ''Series/{{Lost}}''. You'd almost expect him to scream [[SayMyName WAAAAAAAAAAAAALT!!]]

* Pictured [[Narm/{{Film}} here]] is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyophYBP_w4 the infamous scene]] from the SoBadItsGood B-movie ''Film/{{Troll 2}}''. Also note the fly on his forehead that seems to suddenly materialize between shots.

** From the 2008 ''Film/{{Rambo}}'', Rambo's facial expression after being grazed by a bullet. My god, just... you know chill. He's not living for anything if he keeps shaking the camera around like that.

* From ''Film/WestSideStory'':

** Ironically, the original Hector-Achilles confrontation in the ''Literature/TheIliad'' is more Narmful than the film version.

* The first ''Film/ResidentEvil'' movie, though positively grounded compared to its increasingly bonkers sequels, reaches its peak of silliness with the infamous wall-running, Doberman-kicking scene, complete with gratuitous slo-mo.
** The action sequences in ''Apocalypse'' try just a bit ''too'' hard to be spectacular, to the point that the storyboarding feels like it was done by an overcaffeinated fourth-grader and approved by the same committee that created [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Poochie]]. Each subsequent movie then tries twice as hard to top the previous one, to the point that the action becomes impossible to take the tiniest bit seriously. WebVideo/RedLetterMedia's Half in the Bag analysis of the series includes several clips of Mike, Jay and Rich unable to discuss the merits of the films because they're too busy reacting to these scenes with raucous laughter.

* ''Franchise/{{Saw}}''
** ''Film/SawI'': When Creator/CaryElwes [[spoiler: has to cut off his own leg,]] the expression and noises he makes drives it from terrifying to narmifying. It doesn't help that Leigh Whannell is completely overacting in the same scene.
** From ''Film/SawV'':
--> "[[AndThatsTerrible KILLING IS DISTASTEFUL... to me]]!"
** From ''Film/SawVI'': The entire scene revolving around the Carousel Trap.
--> "LOOK AT ME! When you're killing me, you LOOK AT ME!"
--> "Piranha..."
*** It doesn't help that the first part of that line makes it seem like John has some serious ADD. He's in the middle of delivering a dramatic mini-lecture, all the while staring at the fish tank, when he suddenly seems to notice the fish.
--> [paraphrased] "It's not even God who decides who lives or dies. It's the fucking insurance company ... Piranha."
** From ''Film/Saw3D'': "Why couldn't you just SHUT THE FUCK UP?!"

** [[{{Creator/Seanbaby}} Harry Dean Stanton Fact: "AVENGE ME!" is the #2 verbal command all listeners will totally fucking do, second only to "EVERYBODY DANCE NOW!"]]

* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOROvO2fxTc "THE GUN IS GOOD!...]] [[Film/{{Zardoz}} THE PENIS IS EVIL!]]"''

*** Creator/KateWinslet ad-libbed the line. Clearly, Creator/LeonarodDiCaprio wasn't as good at ad-libbing.

** ''Superman IV'''s [[SpaceDoesNotWorkThatWay failures at space-physics]]. In this film, space has an invisible floor.

* ''Film/WilliamShakespearesRomeoAndJuliet''. The guns named after swords were ridiculous enough, but the crowning moment comes as Juliet awakens ''just'' as Romeo downs the poison.

** Then there's the occupational hazard of all Shakespearean adaptations relocated to relatively modern times: Elizabethan dialogue spoken in relatively modern times.
