Top 5

5. Beowulf (1999): In this futuristic retelling of the sixth century, the perpetually dirty “Highlander” actor Christopher Lambert stars a titular character, who is more adapt at pointless backflips than sword mastery and monster slaying.

4. The Puma Man, or L’Uomo Puma (1980): As one of the robots remarked on Mystery Science Theater 3000, “Because pumas are renowned for their flying ability.”

3. Howard the Duck (1986): Before there was Jar Jar Binks there was Howard the Duck, a strange duck alien with a Humphrey Bogart complex.

2. House of the Dead (2003): Uwe Boll’s freshman foray into filmmaking is surprisingly the only one worthy of multiple viewings.

1. Manos, the Hands of Fate (1966): Redundantly translating into “Hands, the Hands of Fate,” the film is one of Quentin Tarantino’s favorite “comedies.” It includes Torgo, the coolest satyr ever, and a deadly backrub.
