Guilty Pleasures

Somewhere between the stacks of unbilled files and the unsigned Motions, I watch alot of movies. And, this being Oscar season, everyone wants to talk about the greatest movies of all time and how much we love them. Well inversely we all have those films that we hold near and dear to our hearts that draw nothing but criticism from others when they see them in our movie collections. Some are so bad they are good. Some are so low-budget, they barely count as "cinema". Others seem to invite looks of shame from our loved ones. This is my list. Dont judge me!
Return of the Living Dead (zombies that run kick ass)
Flash Gordon (the one from 1980, not 1936.)
Blazing Saddles (so racist its a riot)
Big Trouble in Little China (Kurt Russell as John Wayne/Elvis)
The Quick and the Dead (Sharon Stone is sooo tough)
Sol Goode (there's something special about Tori Spelling driving a Red Bull truck)
Last Action Hero (best satire EVER)
Shaun of the Dead (this will also land on my "Unrecognized heroes of film" list)
NeverEnding Story (no, I will NOT grow up)
Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension!
Time Bandits (cuz midgets ROCK)
