I will always stand by my belief that making fun of a terrible movie is one of the most fun activities to do with friends. There comes a point where a film becomes so over the top and ridiculous that all you can do is laugh.The worst of these offenders? Low-budget horror movies. The cheesy effects, the nonsensical plots, and the near guarantee that at least half the cast will die in some bizarre way make for a very entertaining 90 minutes or so.
Here are just some of the movies on my go-to list.
1. "Zombeavers"
@ZombeaversMovie on Twitter
A group of college students have their weekend away disrupted by a group of zombie beavers. I don't think I've ever laughed harder.
2. "Friend Request"
I'm honestly not even sure how to describe this movie. My roommates and I were confused yet amused by the experience.
4. "Sharknado"
Are we surprised that this one made the list? This is probably the first thing to pop into your head when you hear the words "bad horror movie."
"The Gingerdead Man"
A witch revives her serial killer son as a giant gingerbread man desperate for revenge against the girl who got him executed. The face of that gingerbread man alone is enough to give you nightmares.
7. "Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2"
Twice the gore of the first one with none of the nuance. And it's hilarious.
8. "Twilight"
Does "Twilight" count as a horror movie? Probably not, but there are vampires so I'll include it anyway.
9. "Cabin Fever"
Another group of college students staying in a cabin. Their challenge this time? A flesh eating virus.
10. "Life After Beth"
Aubrey Plaza as a zombie? You already know what's about to go down.
11. "Krampus"
Instead of Santa paying a visit at Christmastime, an ancient beast comes down the chimney instead.
12. "The Gate"
Two kids accidentally open a gate to hell in their backyard. It was made in the 80s, so the camp is extreme. This is the first horror movie I ever watched, and I remember being far more amused than I was scared.
13. "The Blob"
This movie is called "the Blob." I'm sure I don't need to convince you.
These are my personal favorites, but there are an abundance of B movies out there for your endless entertainment. Happy Friday the 13th!
