The Baby (1973): a 30 year old man-baby is forced to live in a perpetual state of infancy by his overbearing mother and two horny sisters. The whole thing is lighthearted and enjoyably weird until the breastfeeding/cattle prod scene.

I love Thundercrack!.
How about Story of Ricky?

Yeah! Story of Ricky, and Eagle Shooting Heroes as well. Totally bonkers.

It's exactly what it sounds like.

Street Trash (1987)
The "most ridiculous" superlative was sealed for me near the end of the film. The bad guy - freshly beheaded - uses his last glance to look up the heroine's skirt.

I mean...I seriously cannot believe to this day that somebody greenlit "Junior"
I think Laser Mission is a classic, as well as Dead Heat with Joe Piscopo and Treat WIlliams.

The Story of Ricky is indeed pretty insane all around.
I recently saw the Sgt. Pepper movie for the first time. The one with Peter Frampton and the Bee Gees. The people that made that movie clearly hated the Beatles.

I Haven't actually seen this one, but I feel kinda like I have after hearing Patton Oswalt talk about ...

Is that the Peter Wolf? Is there some kind of sign genre out there? What do they have against subtitles, hearing haters!

Thundercrack!
No clips of Thundercrack! on Youtube? It kind of sounds like The Room crossed with a porno.

Hence no clips on YouTube.

Fantasy Mission Force:
From Wikipedia:
Nominally set during World War II, the film begins with a Japanese attack on an Allied military camp, which a map reveals to be somewhere in Canada. After four Allied Generals, including one who introduces himself as Abraham Lincoln, are taken hostage by the Japanese troops, Lieutenant Don Wen is called in to organize a rescue effort (rejected candidates for the job include James Bond, Snake Plissken, Rocky Balboa and Karl Maka from the Hong Kong film Aces Go Places).
With promises of a huge reward, Don Wen rounds up a group of misfits for the job, which includes two kilt-wearing soldiers, a hobo (Old Sun), a supposed escape artist (Greased Lightning), con artist Billy, and the femme fatale Lily (Brigitte Lin), who sports knee-high red leather boots and a bazooka. En route to the Japanese base where the kidnapped Generals are being held (apparently located in Luxembourg according to the film), the group encounters two small time crooks, Sammy and Emily (Jackie Chan and Ling Chang), who follow them in hope that they will lead them to a cache of money.
As they continue on, Don Wen is seemingly killed in a surprise ambush by spear-wielding tribesmen, and soon the group is captured by a tribe of cannibalistic Amazons led by an effeminate man in a tuxedo. After obliterating the Amazon tribe the group spends the night in a haunted house full of hopping vampires before reaching their goal.
Once there they find the Generals held hostage gone and the base littered with the dead bodies of Japanese soldiers. Before the group can figure out what has happened they are attacked by sword and axe-brandishing Japanese Nazis riding in 1970s-era muscle cars.
Here the plot takes a turn for the melodramatic as the group is wiped out one by one by a machine gun, with another killed by a sword in the buttocks. In the end, with only Sammy and Emily left standing, Don Wen arrives and explains that he planned the whole thing from the beginning so that his rescue team and the Japanese soldiers would kill each other off, leaving him alone to collect the reward. Aiming to silence the last witnesses, Don Wen shoots Emily and Sammy is forced to fight him one-on-one.
After a long martial arts fight scene Don Wen is defeated as Sammy detonates explosives hidden in the main building, obliterating it. The Generals soon show up and demand to know why they weren't rescued earlier, but all Sammy does is dismiss them with the line "I don't know any Generals. To me you look like clowns."
The film ends with a wounded Sammy and Emily driving off together in a jeep, the Generals chasing after them.

I think I"ve only ever seen a shitty VHS duped a thousand times copy of that thing.
Oh, another one along the same vein: Todd Haynes' Superstar.

I actually watched this not too long ago. It's as insane as it sounds, if not more so.

Probably a good time to link to the JERKBEAST trailer.

Superstar is great!
I have a DVD of Thundercrack! that was released by a Swedish distributor specializing in nunsploitation, softcore and other sub sub sub genres.

Gone with the Pope
(http://www.horrorsociety.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/GONEWITHTHEPOPEFINAL.jpg)
"A renowned nightclub entertainer, singer and movie actor known as 'Mr. Palm Springs,' Mitchell directs and stars in GONE WITH THE POPE as an ex-con who hatches a plan to kidnap the Pope in exchange for the ransom of 'a dollar from every Catholic in the world.' The movie has been described as 'the holy grail for lovers of B-movies' and 'a true gem from the American underground.'"
[Trailer is very NSFW]

I need to see that movie. I'm actually mad that I haven't heard of it before.

Does this movie have anything to do with this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road_to_Gandolfo

Coming to me in VHS format, thanks to a seller on Amazon... Never Too Young To Die

I like that they don't just want as many dollars as there are Catholics, but for each of them to pay equally.

I saw this as a kid. I hate you for reminding me of it.

That is pretty fair-minded of them. They could have just put together a sham charity, no need to kidnap the pope.

Other ridiculous movies:
'The Luck Of the Irish' (kid gets in touch with his Irish heritage, finds out he's part of a secret Leprechaun family)
'Police Academy IV: Citizens on Patrol' (Michael Winslow is back with his hilarious sound effects, plus 90 minutes of stuff that's empty of hilarity)
'Mule Skinner Blues' (some old guy makes a horror movie featuring a 2 armed guy in a monster suit getting revenge on the guy who caused him to 'lose his arm', very old woman sings 'I'm never gonna get another DUI' twice.)
'The First 20 Million is Always the Hardest' (intolerable and unwatchable (except for Rosario Dawson) adaptation of Po Bronson's book about Silicon Valley entrepreneurs)
and so on.
-
Has anyone mentioned 'I Know Who Killed Me' yet? That's a highly potent brand of WTF. Lindsay Lohan at one point has bionic limbs. It's hysterical.
-
There's no film as ridiculous as "JFK."

I recently saw Cobra for the first time. Quintessentially, ridiculously 80s. And done with such conviction that I almost admire it. There's not one crack in the facade of something so stupid, I don't know how it can stand up under its own power.

Another Golan Globus production. I'm telling you, every time you see those names come up in the opening credits, plonk your ass down on that couch. You aren't going anywhere for a while.

I've got this one on VHS too. It sits proudly next to my Dickens collection.

The Prince of Tides.
Getting to the heart of your issues in therapy is often a painstaking process, and the "poison thought" that is causing most of your issues usually turns out to be something not so terrible once exposed to the light of day. In the Prince of Tides, Nick Nolte's character has the epiphany in therapy that HE AND HIS ENTIRE FAMILY HAVE BEEN RAPED BY ESCAPED CONVICTS. Ah the subtlety.

For real. They've done some amazing things with cinema. I mean "amazing" I mean in the same way Jersey Shore is amazing.
