> We bad-movie watchers have our own anticriteria, the sorts of badness we prefer. As a fellow bad-movie aficionado, I've narrowed my taste to prefer bad movies that the makers are very proud of and defend until their dying days. Passionate low quality movies, especially ripoffs, are uniquely appealing to me which is why I love Italian cinema from the 70s and 80s (not to mention the other, often more exploitative Italian genres of the same era). The other niche I've found enjoyable are those makers who know they are low budget and do the best with what they have (Golan/Globus, Charles Band, Roger Corman, etc). Both of these types of bad movies are so prolific that you'll never watch them all, and they are what keep me using Prime and Tubi much more frequently than Netflix.
