What do you think are the best so-bad-it's-good movies?

I've been steaming through them lately and want to make a database. Too often people recommend completely awful movies that are only funny for the first few minutes, or that rely on a single stupid event for ironic entertainment. The key to a great so-bad-it's-good movie is that it's not boring. A few personal favourites in this vein are Miami Connection, Ninja Terminator, Samurai Cop (man I love Samurai Cop), The Baby and Three the Hard Way.

Ones that haven't showed up that I think "merit" mention...

Hudson Hawk (1991)
Street Fighter (1994)
Dungeons & Dragons (2000)

You can't overlook "Plan 9 from Outer Space"... I am sure you already have that in your thoughts of a database,

Plus, as often mentioned, "Showgirls." It got such wide release (no pun intended), yet was so horrific. So horrifically funny!
I mean just thinking about the "sex in the pool" scene makes me laugh. Has that girl gotten any roles since? I'm thinkin' it ruined some "Saved by the Bell" reunion shows/movies.

Green Lantern, $100 million dollar hollywood movie, hollywood sheen, film by committee trying to make a film kids will think is cool, zips along, paced by hollywood standards, dumb as hell, laughable CGI, entertaining.

Manos Hands of Fate, The Room, Bridemic are just boring, look bland, filmed badly, badly acted, confusing messes with the odd highlight in an hour and half run times, its not even worth watching them without MST3k.

The Happening is a favorite so-bad-it's-good for me. There are parts that made me laugh out loud, too.
