I cant say i can pick any particular favorite. The original fly stands out, as is the original house on haunted hill. Its unfortunate, but i have not been lucky to see Manos: Hand of Fate. It sounds like an absolute fountain of hilarity. I adore horrible movies. well ones that are horrible in an amusing sort of way anyway. I shall have to look into finding a copy to watch.

Do you have a favourite unintentionally hilarious horror movie?
I think mine's would have to be "Manos": The Hands of Fate [1966], which was originally created on a bet against a fertiliser salesman that he couldn't direct a successful horror movie on budget of $19, 000....

If you see it, you'd either feel your internal organs twinge with pain at its badness or you'd laugh voraciously thereupon.. I mean, the main guy (and "monster"*), <a href="http://www.torgo.org/torgo/">Torgo</a>, who holds the movie together is played by a stuttering drug addict who is dressed as a cowboy with an odd-looking staff and ungodly big knees (and to add to it... This creepy repetitive music plays when ever he walks..)
A cult-classic and easily the worst movie ever made**...

  • It seems that exaggerated physical attribute used to induce "terror" makes him a monster, but really: how long did it take the director to make that decision? "Big knees... Great! Go with it!"
    • Third on my list, but it's the only one I happen to actually like in an affectionate B-movie geek way...
