Narm— those moments of sub-par acting, unusual dialog, poorly executed stunts, failed special effects, unintentionally hilarious drama, and other odd occurrences that are So Bad They're Good and one can't help but love.

For those out there who have grown attached to such absurd bits, this is the place to share and discuss the moments of cinematic silliness that stand out to oneself.

To get things started, lets go with the "tractor scene" from Supersonic Man (1979)...

It almost feels like cheating to put 70's Toku on a thread like this, and yet, Super Infra-Man vs the Bug Monster

Having just seen the movie, this scene definitely belongs here:

A memorable way to die:

Another dubbed version.

The original version is here. The latter two don't feature any screams, which is possibly even more narm-y.

Yeah, I knew this thread would catch on.

You Tube is blocked here at work, but can someone post "the best chase scene ever" from The Amazing Bulk? It's great comedy.

Yes. That scene alone convinced a non-troper to check out the whole movie. While watching it, he told me that he had a newfound appreciation for how good Foodfight! was by comparison. When he was done, he told me "My life is complete."

That Obviously Evil guy makes Octodad look dignified. I think if someone acted like that in real life, people would assume he's pretty disabled.

This scene. Everything about it - dialogue, sexism, acting, and frisbees.

[up][up] & [up] My word, I need to find this movie.

Here's the gripping climax from Teenages from Outer Space. I sure wish MY electric company with only one working employee was this helpful over the phone when a giant lobster attacks my town...

Has anyone ever told you to "Put a little chlorophyll in the conversation"? Or referred to a headache as a "thrombo"? ... No? Then you don't live in the world of The Oscar.

And how could it not have won an Oscar for best screenplay with dialogue like this?:

I made this gif from The Night The World Exploded.

It features someone who resembles Hitler being killed by poison gas or something like that.

I have no idea how that person bounced back and exploded. Looked like something out of a cartoon, but really, I don't get just what happened!

I an partially cover that one. Quite a few sleeping bags back then and even today use feathers for insulation. So the mega bear swats the person with supposed great force into the hard object and the explosion of the insulation out of the bag is supposed to show how mighty creature is. But it end sup coming across as rather silly. In my head The I'm a Banana song was playing before he got swatted.

Who watches the watchmen?
