These movies will make you laugh and cry... unintentionally.

Very few B-movies have a unique ability to be so ridiculously absurd and at the same time enjoyable, remaining memorable for many years to come. We are going to take a look exactly at this type of gems.

Deadly Weapons (1974)

The 1974 low-budget "masterpiece" is renowned for its outlandish acting performances and ludicrous plotline.

The film hilariously revolves around the vengeful escapades of Chesty Morgan's character, who ingeniously employs her ample bosom as lethal weapons, suffocating her unsuspecting adversaries.

This cinematic gem has garnered a dedicated following of viewers who revel in its unabashed absurdity and continue to celebrate its comedic brilliance throughout the years.

Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966)

Manos: The Hands of Fate is often regarded as one of the worst films ever made, and its reputation stems from various aspects of its production.

Released in 1966, the film was written, directed, and produced by Harold P. Warren, who had no prior experience in filmmaking.

The film proudly flaunts its low-budget nature, parades technical flaws like badges of honor, and showcases performances that can only be described as gloriously amateurish. It's a perfect recipe for an outrageously absurd experience.

Manos: The Hands of Fate is the epitome of "so bad, it's good," according to many B-movies enthusiasts.

Rubber (2010)

Directed by Quentin Dupieux, the film tells the story of a sentient, telekinetic tire named Robert who goes on a killing spree.

One of the main reasons why Rubber is regarded as ridiculous is its deliberate embrace of absurdity. The film deliberately defies traditional narrative conventions and challenges audience expectations.

By featuring a tire as the main character and blurring the line between reality and fiction, Rubber intentionally creates a surreal and bizarre atmosphere.

Braindead (1992)

Before Peter Jackson got praised for a fantastic adaptation — The Lord of the Rings, he directed a 1992 horror-comedy film Braindead, also known as Dead Alive.

You can definitely say the movie is ridiculous because of its over-the-top and exaggerated elements, including extreme gore, absurd humor, and outrageous situations.

Nevertheless, the film's campy nature, quotable lines, and memorable scenes have made it a favorite among fans of unconventional and offbeat cinema.
