Not a bad idea. But I'm trying to reduce the list of Totally Bad Movies
to a more manageable list, so I have adopted even stricter rules. One
good vote cancels out all bad votes. If anyone, ANYONE can see ANYTHING
remotely good (above mediocre is all I require) about ANY of the movies
listed, please let me know. Surely there aren't THAT many Totally Bad
Movies around.

It's beginning to appear to be too early to stop this discussion on
Totally Bad Movies, as I had suggested in my last posting. There seems
to be something in everyone that cries out to inform the world of the
worthless movies one has seen. I think it's an instinct for revenge. It
gives you a sense of vengeance to be able to blast a movie that has
ripped you off, and it is the ultimate revenge to classify it as a
Totally Bad Movie and challenge anyone to say anything good about it.
So let's go on for a while longer. But I still want to know of your
nominations for "Must-see Bad Movies," those that are so bad they are
worth seeing.
