umm, well

- the room,
- birdemic and
- anything related to neil breen

would spontaneously come to mind.
"glad" is subject to definition, though.

If Footmen Tire You, What Will Horses Do? (1971)

Little evangelical movie about Commies taking over America and brutally terrorising the Christian population. Naturally we're told that the only way to avoid this outcome is for everybody to turn to Jesus.

Unintentionally hilarious scenes aplenty. It's less than an hour long too.

.

44:30 is my favourite scene.

Mystery Science Theatre 3000 is a good way to bump up the number of crappy films you've seen.

Another pretty rubbish film I'm glad I watched was The Terror of Tiny Town - a 62-minute western that features only dwarf actors. If that doesn't tempt you, I'm not sure what will.

This describes about 25% of the movies i watch.

To make a specific recommendation I'll say The Magic Sword (1962).

Most recent one that comes to mind is BoardingHouse



But I watch crap films and classics in just about equal measure, so I'm with RibCage on this one. About 20% of what I see is blissfully bad.
