1. The Wicker Man (2006)

The Wicker Man remake tries to be a deadly serious thriller, but is so farcical its hilarious. The hilarity is bought about by Nic Cage screaming about bees and hitting a lot of women.
Proof:

Whoa, no Ed Wood?

Plan 9 From Outer Space is what defined the accidental comedy genre.
Bride of the Monster is another classic example. That rubber squid...f&^king hilarious.

Other suggestions:
BATMAN! (the '66 Adam West version)
Battlefield Earth
Jeepers Creepers 2
Judge Dredd
Cobra ("This is where the law stops...and I begin!")
Dark Waters
Jaws: The Revenge (the "roaring shark"...nuff said)

How about Pearl Harbor? That crappy movie is so sentimental, that it's funny. Armageddon is funny too.

The new king of the Accidental Comedy genre is Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus. It's a balloon-sized laugh riot, winking at us time and time again.

Proof?
Well the giant shark attacks an airborne passenger plane. It takes a huge bite out of the Golden Gate Bridge too.

I've said enough *smirk*

Description

Movies that intended to be serious, dramatic or hard hitting, but ended up being so bad they were funny.
