Toxic Avenger: I-IV
Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD
Surf Nazi's Must Die (This one was fucking hilarious. the good guy(girl i mean) was known as "Leroy's mama")
Cannibal - The Musical
Class of Nuke'em High (I think there's more than one here)
Bloodsucking Freaks
All the Love you Cannes

and a buncha other goodies. The extras on the dvds are unbelievable too.

Not to mention A Nymphoid Barbarian in Dinosaur Hell: "Where the prehistoric meets the prepubescent."
Or Rabid Grannies: "They just love their grandchildren... well done!"

Trivia for anime newbies: Troma is also responsible in part for bringing the first dub of "My Neighbor Totoro" to the U.S. They say that tape sold over a million copies. It's now out on DVD (R1, dub only).

Another source for bad movies is the Bottom 100 List at imdb.com.

The episode list is available at the Official MST3K Web site.

That was Space Mutiny, one of my favorite episodes. I knew that footage looked familiar. I got a kick outta how it's supposed to be a ship in deep space, yet you can clearly see very bright sunlight shining in through the windows of the factory they filmed it in at certain points.

You also can't forget "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank". That was just classic!

Five words: Manos: the Hands of Fate Worst movie they ever did, and a definite classic.

I'm just going to keep saying this until my face turns blue: None of the other MST3K films could possible top "The Wild Wild World of Batwoman" for sheer crappiness. I can hardly think of a single movie worst they did, and I've been watching it since I was around 7 or 8.

"High School Big Shot"
was the best....

Hiiigh Schoooool big shot....big shot in hiiiigh school!

It was great because at the end, everyone who played a major part in the movie died. I'm not talking War Movie everyone dies ending. I'm talking They ALL die on the docks in a cap-gun fight with the police finishing off the last remaining supporting actors. No special ending either. They're on the docks whip out capguns, start killing each other ( no dialogue happening during this) cops rush to the docks and start gunning down the only living people and then the credits roll. It was black and white too.

Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter was rather horrible.
And if your gonna make fun of a series, I suggest Manimal.

Manimal was awesome!
Along with all the other 70-80's-tastic shows they used to air on saturday afternoons back home.
