Your Guilty Pleasure Movie Picks

Off the top of my head, there are quite a few that I would classify as silly.

Dolph Lundgren starred in a film which is one of my favourite 'cult classics', but there are a lot of silly parts to the story and aspects which make little sense if you are a He-Man fan.

It's a good film to watch on a quiet Sunday, when you find time to sit down and watch something you shouldn't take too seriously. What makes it silly to me is largely the story and how it becomes almost Star Wars inspired. It does well to tell a story about the Cosmic Key; the start builds tension and brings in a character that I don't believe was in the original animated cartoon.

Once on Earth, it becomes a bit wacky with a "random cow" roaming near a Southern fried chicken joint?

I mean, it works, but it does feel like parts were thrown together and elements of popular movies were thrown in to make it seem cool. Such as the police officer being the principal from "Back to the Future." The silliness continues at the end, when you learn how he sees out the film.

The next film I will share, is one I only learned about a few years ago whilst on holiday at Skegness.

Freaked is very goofy; the silliness is aimed at making you laugh, and it does a good job. The whole story is wacky, and it seems very underrated.

Randy Quaid always made me laugh in the films he starred in; a very good actor, and I didn't know he was a serious actor before he took on many of the slapstick titles he did. If you saw a film during the 90s with him in it, it would be worth watching. Can anyone name the film where he plays the neighbour from hell? It stars James Wood; I know what it is, but I am doing this for conversation. 😉

In the film Freaked, former child actor played by, Alex Winter takes on the role of the public representative for a corporation named EES.

Everything Except Shoes... 🤣

Quaid performs as a captivating freak show entertainer who turns visitors into his Freaks.
