Dear Esteemed Members of Predicate.org:
It has occurred to me that I may not be contributing enough to this fine website as-is. Sure, I may be losing in fantasy baseball, and contributing to Rome's early demise, but I ask you, is that enough?
No, my friends, it is not.
So, I propose the following ongoing series which will hopefully scale the twin peaks of entertainment: sarcasm and torture.
For the next several weeks (or months, if it works out), I will submit my Netflix queue to your every whim and desire. I promise to watch literally any movie you choose. Should the movies selected for me be sufficiently terrible and/or snark-worthy, I will also do my best to write a humorous review and post it here. So, in the now-regretted words of a famous man,
"Bring it on."
P.S. I'm assuming that several selections will be submitted at the same time; I will take the choices to chat in order to find the consensus choice for each particular viewing.
--UPDATE--
So, round 1 begins. Let me know if these are acceptable.

You asked for it!
Because sequels are the most fiendish form of cinematic torture mankind has yet discovered...

If you manage to survive those -- and I do not anticipate that you will -- report back for further punishment.
The two worst movies I can
The two worst movies I can think of off the top of my head:
Doom Generation
Event Horizon
And I have no idea whether this is a bad movie or not, but I can't imagine it's good:
Air Bud
I will second the nomination
I will second the nomination of Event Horizon, which I had the misfortune to see in the theater. Luckily, my dad was paying.

I saw it for free since I was an employee of Paramount at the time, and I *still* wanted my money back.
must see
Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death
Two generations of Stankows recommend...
Traxx, starring Shadoe Stevens as a mercenary who takes a job cleaning up a town of lowlifes to finance a cookie store. Gloriously crappy camp.
So it is written...
"Bring it on."
Yes, do see that one. I await your assessment of Kirsten Dunst's jiggling.

The Wicker Man
The BeastMaster (I'd make you watch BeastMaster 2, but apparently it's too bad to rate a DVD release.)
Oh, but that reminds me...
Yes! They have it!

So what happens under this scheme if you've already seen the movie one of us recommends? If you've seen Showgirls, for example, does my recommendation require you to sit through it (albeit perhaps while stabbing your own ears and eyes out) again?
Worst I've Seen
My buddies and I have a thing of seeing awful movies and making fun of them...
So my list:
Arachnia
Legend of the Chupacabra
Chupacabra Terror (sequel, as Ajax said... torture)
Frankenfish
There's quite a few more... but those should be enough for now.
ENJOY!
Legend of the Chupacabra
I saw this! It's bad on so many levels. If it was made by jr. high school students it would be amusing, but I'll second the motion.
