Most of my favorite (relatively) unknown movies are unknown precisely because they are really bad:

  • Big Trouble in Little China (“This is going to take cracker-jack timing, Wang.”)
  • Running Scared (“Oh, no, you dummy. The answer is Ipswich clams.”)
  • Hollywood Shuffle (I couldn’t find a clip of the “Tommy, Tommy, you killed-ed my brutha” scene)
  • Streets of Fire (“There’s nothing wrong with going nowhere, baby/But we should be going nowhere fast”)

I blame 1980s HBO.
