What makes very bad movies good, IMO, is that they are unique in some way. The bad choices they make are different from what you normally see.
What makes good movies bad, is that they are bland and derivative. They are like everything you've already seen, change nothing, and add nothing, and make you feel nothing.

[@zyxwut321]

The magic of "The Room" is that it's so INNOCENTLY bad. Tommy Wiseau was completely sincere in his efforts to make a legitimate dramatic film. All of the other actors are performing to the best of the amateurish abilities. The production was completely honest in its misguided efforts to build and advance drama and tension. It was just so perfectly off in all of its horrible decision making, like the video said, like a non-human trying to understand humans. It's also so fragile for that same reason. As soon as there's an ounce of awareness, of camp, satire or any other intention the whole concept and value of the film instantly evaporates. Then it's just an ordinary bad movie. It's why Tommy Wiseau can't ever make another film and why his later casting of the film as a "dark comedy" fell flat. He's now forever a caricature of his own creation.

One of the reasons bad movies are enjoyable is that they're great to pick apart and analyze, and you can really learn a lot about good films from watching them. Your typical Hollywood film is so seamless and polished that everything washes over you. You suspend your disbelief and sort of forget that a movie is the sum of a million parts/decisions/actions. But a bad movie jolts you out of that. As soon as you see a boom mike or realize that the actor's shirt has changed from red to green in the middle of the scene, you're reminded that a film is something a lot of people came together to make, and that people made certain (terrible) decisions making it. You start to wonder WHY they made a certain choice. Like, why does Tommy Wiseau have actors throw around a football for no reason in the middle of a movie? You start wondering if a decision was made because of ineptitude, lack of funds, time constraints, because the director was out of his mind because of a cocaine binge (which happened during one movie I worked on), etc. Also, thinking about why a movie fails can make you look critically at ones that are good. What makes a movie good? What makes one enjoyable? What makes dialogue work? What sounds dumb? The badness of movies like the room gives you a different perspective on moviemaking, and in a way, is sort of an education in how to make a good movie.

[@masterman1001]

Ya know, there's something special to entertaining oneself with abysmal pieces of art, so you do have a point. But I couldn't take up a condescending stance towards a film who actually managed to do what a (mainstream) flick's intention should always be: It entertained quite a lotta people.
Now sure, there's also flicks that are meant to make you think, to educate you, or just simply to show you something unconventional. But even then, they still do entertain us, even if it's just a "side-effect".
So yes, while The Room was undoubtedly a film with horrible acting, a terrible script, and a lead who has yet to prove to be an actual human, it certainly cannot be considered unsuccessful. (not financially speaking. Although I assume some money has been earned over time, so they might even be in the plus, someday)

The Room is one of the most unique (and misogynist :/) films ever made, whether you consider it "the worst film ever made" or not.

[@panterxbeats]

Roshan, have you watched this scene, let alone the entire film?
ua-cam.com/video/wOWCMuwZVVQ/v-deo.html
All of them women (and characters) in the film are written solely *for*, and of course *from* the perspective of the perfect Tommy Wiseau (or Johnny, as portrayed in the film)
I was surprised a few searches give one results regarding it, and watching the film should answer it for you unless you're desensitised to negative and stereotypical portrayals of women across the media. Breast cancer is a brief joke in the room. The movie is a joke, and I can admire it for all of its unintended, broken absurdity. "David Lynch couldn't make something that weird on purpose."

I don't think you need to do an indepth analysis to know why people like to watch this movie. The plain and simple reason is that its just sooo bad that its funny.

[@MrAwwwwYeahhhh]

True, that's the only explanation needed lmao

[@Ben-yj8ye]

I think it was because Tommy spent so much on it and believed it is the best ever. A lot of people who make bad movies know they’re bad and just release the movie straight to dvd. But Tommy asked Paramount to distribute this, paid for a premiere, made merchandise, and kept it onscreen. He didn’t just let it die. He marketed it for mainstream.

The Room is nowhere near the worst. In any way.
It has a semi-coherent story, it has decent lighting, okay camerawork, and the "actors" are some times seen moving their lips when they speak.
The Room is bad enough to be good bad, and much better than bad bad movies.

[@conorm.5331]

Yep. The Room is actually somewhat coherent.

Very true, and The Room might be one of the last of that "genre," because the cat's out of the bag. People have been making intentional "so bad it's good" movies for a while now - such as Snakes on a Plane. Also, because it came out before UA-cam, people laugh at its attempt to get exposure with serious money invested in equipment/marketing.

[@soniccookie655]

Yeah, some things are so bad they're good. While I've never read it, I think a good example of this is the Harry Poter fanfiction My Immortal. They didn't try to make it good, so it's not predictable, which makes it entertaining, although not traditional.

I saw rocky horror the first time with a live audience. I had no idea about anything other than the crowd was quite rowdy and weird. Never really ended up liking it, though I tried, because of that first impression of not caring what was going on.
I saw the room by myself after midnight. I recognized how awful it was, but was able to enjoy it. Much easier transition when I saw it with the crazies. That was a fun experience.

[@OhKnow379]

I loved rocky horror but the audience was dull and the oonly ones who did participate were older people whomst grew up with it

[@aliensoup2420]

I'm so grateful I saw Rocky Horror the first time in a generally normal viewing arrangement. It was an outdoor projection of a 16mm print on a University campus lawn, in 1975 or 76. I was able to enjoy the dialog and the songs without the intrusion of the audience. After acquiring familiarity of the movie, I once again saw it in a theater with an indoctrinated audience, so I understood the inside jokes. I would say it is always better to see a cult audience participation movie first without the audience so that you can develop your own unique reaction and opinion.
