RWarehall: When I think of this topic, I think of really bad films that are only good to laugh at.
#1 on my list is No Retreat, No Surrender which was Jean-Claude Van Damme's first feature role.
Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your view, he has very little screen time and is not the reason this film is so bad it's hilarious.
The story is about a boy whose father runs a Dojo in California before the Dojo mafia runs him out of town (don't ask me what the heck a Dojo Mafia is, apparently there are some people who believe the path to world domination starts by taking over Dojos around the world I suppose).
So as per the title, the family packs up (retreats) to palm-treed sunny Seattle Washington (normally it is not, this was clearly filmed in California). There the boy gets beat up by boys from his high school karate team...(I think this stuff happens every day).
As usual in this sort of story, the boy learns karate (this time by summoning Bruce Lee's ghost who beats the heck out of him in the process) strangely not his father who was supposedly a karate teacher. With the support of his friends including a boy who seemingly wants to be Michael Jackson, the boy saves the day including fighting off the big bad evil Russian Karate expert (Jean-Claude) when he goes berserk at an exhibition.
Clearly the intent was to create something akin to Karate Kid, but, my God, they really needed a writer! You will laugh, and laugh hard, the movie makes so little sense, you can't help but laugh at it.
Oh god, I remember that one, the friend calling out "no retreat, no surrender!" followed by the comeback victory is just so cheesy and lame it's awesome.
