Quote of the Day: On Bad Movies

This is actually pretty decent analysis for how some movies are so bad that they're good (or at least entertaining).  My emphasis:
I suppose one thing all so-bad-they're-good films have in common is unbridled enthusiasm. No matter what genre they're acting in, it doesn't occur to an actor in a camp film to tone it down a bit. No director of such films resists a close-up, or a splatter of gore, or a musical sting. It's like watching five-year-olds play soccer. They're no good, but just seeing them go nuts is a joy.
