Guilty Pleasure Movies

35 Flicks We're Embarrassed to Love

What is a guilty pleasure? A movie you're embarrassed to admit you like? A movie so bad it's good? A movie so cheesy or odd you just can't get enough of it? Yes (to all three)! And it's definitely subjective, but you know one when you see it (repeatedly, in the privacy of your own home, with the shades down). Click through to see ours, then tell us yours. (Our Guilt Factor is on a scale of 1-10.)

Why the Guilt? Of this comedy with a main character who speaks strictly gibberish, <A HREF='http://www.moviefone.com/celebrity/roger-ebert/1928896/main' target='_blank'>Roger Ebert</a> asked: "How did this train wreck happen? How was this movie assembled out of such ill-fitting pieces? Who thought it was funny?"

Beerfest was a GREAT movie! Are you serious?! Best effort since Supertroopers! We refuse to forgive them for Club Dredd, however. Beerfest was awesome, screw you, moviefone!!

Grease 2 and The Cutting Edge are great choices, but what about Coyote Ugly?

The Top Guilty Movie For Me Is A forgotten Movie Called 'SOB". There Was Also "Murder By Death" And "Hair'
I Own Them ALL As Well As Many On Your List. Who Could EVER Forget Michelle Phiffer Climbing That ladder Singing "Cool Rider"!!!

You've forgotten about Newsies (1992) starring Christian Bale. It didn't do well considering it followed The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast, but it's picked up a following in the past few years. The songs are catchy, the plot kinda corny, a terrible subplot romance that makes no sense, but oh, Christian Bale dancing and singing is worth it all.

I've seen about 7 of the movies you have on the list. Guess what? I don't feel guilty about having watched any of them. Some are good enough that they shouldn't even be on this list.

From Justin to Kelly
Justin was adorable, and I really enjoyed his singing and dancing. He didn't get enough credit for the good job he did with the rushed script they gave him.
It was sun, fun and Florida, and Justin and Kelly did have good chemistry together .
The songs were actually very good and they sounded beautiful on their duets. They should've released a soundtrack.
I think From Justin to Kelly is a lot of people's guilty pleasure and its a fun thing to watch when you need a little sunshine, dancing, singing and Justin!

p.s- I cant believe you mentioned the Monkees movie Head. That was SO bizarre, yet very creative and you know what I always liked the Monkees too. They also never got enough credit for all their talent and their tv show was fun, creative and the music was great!

You forgot about the vampire movie 'Embrace of the Vampire' starring Alyssa Milano. Once you see it you will know why its a guilty pleasure movie.

Whoever mentioned Coyote Ugly not being on the list....I LOVE Coyote Ugly!! It's one of my favorite movies. I don't see why you would feel its a bad movie!
