Plan 9 From Outer Space was amazingly, mind-blowingly bad. It went straight through campy. It's so bad it's not even funny anymore. I have to buy a copy.

If you're into blaxploitation and/or Quentin Tarentino(sp?) films, Dolemite is a must-see. It's hilariously bad, but I think parts of it were supposed to be, and you can really see where it would've influenced Tarentino a lot (some of the lines are just sickeningly cool).

Also on the list, though not as well known, is El Chupacabra. Named after the spanish demon/lizard/bat/thing that apparently sucks the blood of goats (its name translates to "goat-sucker"), this movie is what happens when you give a rapper (whose name I forget and can't be bothered to look up) a movie camera and a $7 budget. Awesomely bad.
