No Such Thing as Bad Publicity?
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

When An Alan Smithee Film: Burn Hollywood Burn ended up getting terrible reviews, the poster put on copy saying it was "The movie Hollywood doesn't want you to see!" - pretending the criticism meant the movie was so revolutionary that a critic conspiracy was "scared" of it. The same applies to a lot of works and products - stuff like "see what the controversy is all about" and "show you're not a sheep that listen to critics!" and so on. Is there a trope for that?
