Anything mentioned at the Something Awful Movie Reviews is abysmally horrible and should make your brother happy. Problem is, most of these Z-grade masterpieces are really hard to find.

For something non-horror (at least by genre definition) try Nukie, worth minus fifty points at SA and 1.6 stars at IMDB.

Postman.
I was going to suggest that one but you beat me to it.
Waterworld is another.

My older brother likes to give us gag DVDs for Christmas and he usually suceeds but a couple of years ago he got me "I'm Gonna Get You SUCKA" which looked like an awful movie but in reality was very entertaining.

Yes, Ozzy, it depends on what your expectation levels were. I expected both movies to SUCK, so yes, they weren't THAT bad.

The latter. That's the problem with sci-fi -- too often, it falls within the first category instead of the second. And pretty much all drama falls within the first category, especially if it's got a bunch of people talking in posh british accents.

F'rinstance, as awful as it was, Waterworld still had the Blue Velvet guy in it, which moves it from the "awful" category to the "awfully cheesy" category. In contrast, Battlefield Earth had no redeeming features, so it's firmly in the "awful" category.

The original Willard was a terrible movie, but its followup, Ben, might be ideal. It starred the smartest rat from the first movie. That was bad enough, but the coup de grace was the theme song. It was Michael Jackson singing a love song to the rat.

Its only available on VHS.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068264/

Unintentionally funny movie and cheezy, no pun intended, beyond belief. Ben might fit the bill.

The original Willard had Ernest Borgnine get eaten by rats, that is worth the price of admission alone.

Which reminds me.

Has anyone ever seen The Devil's Rain. This movie had an all star cast. John Travolta in a very small early role. William Shatner gets possessed by the devil. Ernest Borgnine is Satan. Tom Skerritt and Eddie Albert are in it too. This movie is supposed to be frightening, but misses the mark by a mile.

The devil has a coven in a small western town and he's looking for souls as per usual. He decides he wants William Shatner's soul.

The final scene is awesome mishap of crazed makeup special effects.

Saw it at the movie theatre when it was first out. The movie sucked, but Borgnine was good.

"Wild Things" was really bad, but I imagine he's seen it.
"The Professional: Golgo 13." Worst anime I have ever seen.
"Street Fighter."
There's actually a recently-released, straight-to-video "Chupacabras" movie, based on the tabloid legend of the Mexican Goatsucker. I haven't seen it but I don't think it's physically possible for a movie with that subject to be good.
"Plan 9 from Outer Space" is of course the granddaddy of all badness, but that's probably too obvious.
"Left Behind" the movie.
This obscure movie called "Drinking Games" my brother's ex rented once. She spent the whole evening saying, "hey, it looked good in the store..."
"Johnny Mnemonic." I couldn't even watch it all. What a crap attempt at tech noir.

That's about all off the top of my head.

Oh, speaking of rottentomatoes, I think Dana Carvey's recent Master of Disguise was their worst-rated movie of all time.

As for Wild Things...please. The plot had like eight twists, at least six of them unnecessary. It was like they were trying to increase the number of things that could go wrong.

And I hope that by "other redeeming factors" you don't mean the menage a trois. You'd think Denise Richards's naked torso would be easy enough to make attractive, but no. She looks half-lumpy, half-emaciated, and the booze makes her look like she just crawled out of a car wreck covered with oil and blood. Ugh.

For heaven's sake, why has nobody mentioned Mortal Kombat: Annihilation?

Dreck of the highest order. With lines that amount to:

"Sub-Zero! I killed you in the last film!"

"That was my identical twin brother."

And knee-knockingly bad special effects.

"I'm Gonna" was far better than one would think, a very entertaining film. Highly recommend it as a double-bill with "Hollywood Shuffle", another film about blacks in the movies.

Actually I thought it was cool as a kid. But as an adult, well the film is just... cheesy. The funny thing about it is it was supposed to be the hit of the summer, not Jaws.

It has George Peppard of his pre-A-team fame, and Jan Michael Vincent.

It's a post nuclear holocaust film with giant cockroaches and giant scrorpions. It just sounds cool, doesn't it?

It is a prized possession of mine- I bought an ex-rental VHS copy from a junk shop in London a few years' ago now.

I also have Wibble Wobble Shatner in Roger Corman's 'The Intruder' about a racist demagogue (played by Shatner) and the dvd of 'The People' based on the Zenna Henderson novel.

Actually he's not so blobby in 'The Intruder' it's still a few happy meals to go before he gets to telly tubby Star Trek size.

I'd like to get 'Big Bad Mama' with Angie Dickinson and Wibbly too.

Did you ever see a film called 'The Demons' (?) set in the Mid-West? I think the demons aren't actually meant to be supernatural but real creatures.

That I'd like to see again.

'Inspector Gadget 2'- with French Stewart. It will make you kill people.
