I love 'so-bad-they're-good' movies as much as the next (disturbed) guy.
I do again want to stress that this is very different than what the topic is about. I'm well aware that many people (including myself, on occasion) like to laugh at and enjoy bad films. This wasn't the case here. These films were simply awful with no redeeming value whatsoever. I was thoroughly bored watching them, and didn't enjoy the experience at all. Nor did I expect to at the outset.
Do you watch these films because they're awful, or in spite of their awfulness? I sometimes rummage through the garbage in a favorite actor's body of work, myself. A necessary evil.
It's exceptionally rare that I troll myself like that (I can't recall another time I have done so in either 2013 or 2014), but in both cases I was morbidly curious by how bad they were, although I knew it wouldn't be entertaining. In the case of Assassination, I adore Charles Bronson, and was wondering how putrid one of his worst outings truly was, as my memories of it from childhood were hazy. (Although I hated it then, too) With Frogs, it had such a hilarious title, poster, and core premise that I was wondering how they fucked it all up.
