I think you must have wandered into the wrong thread. See, this is for bad movies, not movies that are precious and absolutely perfect in every conceivable way, lol.
Mr. Brightside - The Killers
Feel Good, Inc. - Gorillaz
Life Itself - Glass Animals
In no particular order. My favorite genre is alternative/indie, from the 90s and onwards. That's what I grew up with in part, but I never really appreciated it until I got older.
Probably a pretty notorious example, but: the His Dark Materials trilogy. The last book was batshit and made no kind of sense. The actual resolution to the whole series was, IIRC, spoiler I guess, Lyra's parents grabbed God and just sorta held him as they all tumbled down a bottomless hole...

Everyone should at least once in their life go to a screening of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, especially one with a live drag show.
It's an experience, lol.
Oh my god. The mid-2000s music. The hammy acting. The practical effects. The fact it's written by the guy who did Final Destination.
There was nothing about that trailer I didn't love.
There's something hard to explain about why watching terrible B-movies (or even high-budget flops) can be so entertaining. Alcohol not necessary, but a plus.
For me, I love Battlefield Earth. There's something about this movie that makes me literally laugh out loud. I love it. This scene in...
