Guilty Pleasures (13 titles)
Yep, movies that are all kinds of wrong, and should really be avoided, but during which I just can't help but completely, utterly and totally enjoy myself, like a giddy schoolboy on the top deck of a busload of high-school girls...

Tango and Cash
Ludicrous, overblown, 80s excess and then some, but it's hilarious, and has Teri Hatcher not wearing very much.

Flash Gordon
Peter Duncan from Blue Peter gets the green-wrist-death-goo, Brian Blessed's got a big beard (obviously), a big laugh (obviously) and big wings (brilliant), Timothy Dalton's in it, and Princess Wot's-her-name is about the most outrageous thing you'll ever see in a PG-rated movie.

Days Of Thunder
Soundtrack, stunts, glossy camerawork, it's got the Cruiser with a shaggy hairdo and a stupid name, and it's ridiculously enjoyable.

Kingpin
Bill Murray's incredible comb-over is worth the rental alone. Then there's Woody's rubber hand, some unbelievable gags ("we haven't got a cow"), oh, and Vanessa Angel's fabulous, erm, pins...

Tremors
I'm spotting a theme: having The Bacon or Lord Murray hamming it up significantly increases the chances of my enjoying even the crappiest film. This superb B-movie nonsense has some top moments

Tremors
on DVD
(1989)
Starring: Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, Rhonda Le Beck
Director: Ron Underwood
Certificate:
Tremors didn't actually break any new ground (even though its tunnelling worm monsters certainly did), but it revved up the classic monster-movie formulas of the 1950s with such energetic enthusiasm and humour that it made everything old seem new again. It's also got a cast full of enjoyable actors ..read more »

The Cannonball Run
Reynolds, Captain Chaos, Roger Moore spoofing himself wonderfully, plus some flash motors, not least the Lambo into which the cat-suited forms of Farrah Fawcett and Adrienne Barbeau are squeezed. Nice.

Cannonball Run II
Forgot to mention Deano and Sammy Davis above, who actually manage to seem more drunk in this one - it's terrible movie that they couldn't even be bothered to finish properly, but it's got more Chaos, Daisy Duke inside the Lambo this time around, and Frank Sinatra.

Dawson's Creek - Season 1
I know I should know better, but I must confess to getting completely hooked on the emotional trials & tribs of the Mighty Mong Forehead Boy and his pals. And a significant factor in this was developing a rather unhealthy obsession with Katie Holmes.
