In honor of Grindhouse opening today, I declare this post open to talking about your very favorite bad/cult/weird movies of all time. I'm not talking big-budget studio product, I'm talking low-budget independent trash, here (think Sci-Fi Channel Movie of the Week for a modern antecedent).

Some of my favorite low-budget bad/cult/weird films of all time (limiting myself to one per director):

Asylum of Satan
Basket Case
The Beyond
The Bird with the Crystal Plumage
Blood for Dracula (AKA Andy Warhol's Dracula)
Blood Freak
Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter
Dawn of the Dead '78
The Diabolical Dr. Z
The Howling
It's Alive
Plan 9 from Outer Space
Re-Animator
The Road Warrior
Sleepaway Camp
Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
The Toxic Avenger

What are some of your favorites?

Liquid Sky. Hands down. Androgynous aliens who are obsessed with David Bowie! Bad special effects and '70s electronica! What's not to love?

Oh, and for weirdness on the other side of the pond, the British film Jubilee is pretentious punk grindhouse. With twins who have sex with each other, Queen Elizabeth I being shown a vision of post-apocalpytic England by a mysterious psuedo-fairy creature, and people who cut each other on purpose. Very awesome and totally sick.
