Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie
I don't think this was an intentionally bad special effect. They do the exact same messy keyframing with her adult self's head over the robot body in the climax. I have heard a lot of debate over whether the flashback's effects were supposed to be a joke, but given the movie's low budget and Direct-to-Video nature, I think the effect was actually intended to look good.
