Simply years ahead of it's time. If remade, it would be brilliant if done right.

It would a tough one to do today.  So much of what seemed futuristic about it is too close to reality now.  "Wired" has an article this month on "the future that never happened".  Haven't read it yet, but it seems interesting.  One of the things they talk about is robots that do everything for us. 

Remember when sci-fi's talked about 1999, or 2010 as some ridiculously far point in the future when things would be different.  Well, they are different, just not in the way one might have expected.
Yup

Snakes On a Plane, Waterworld, and as someone said (tp) the king of all Anaconda

Snakes on a Plane is a fail because it tried way too hard to BE a "so bad it's great" kind of movie.  I'll argue that a movie can't qualify as a "SBIG" flick unless the director and other key people went into the film with full intentions of making a good movie.  Tongue-in-cheek = disqualification.

Isn't the greatest truly bad movie of all time "Showgirls"?  Elizabeth Berkley?  The worst, least erotic sex scene of all time (what looked like her having a seizure in the pool)?  The ridiculous plot?

Yup

Well, it's *required* that you be drinking while watching it.

Amazon Women On The Moon; a DUMB comedy that knows it's a dumb comedy, so it kind of violates my rule of what can and cannot be considered a "SBIG" flick.  Still, it's pretty horrible and yet I'm never *not* watching it if it's on.  

EDIT: Any decent Cheech & Chong movie, as well.  They're all bad, but Up In Smoke is pretty [dang] funny even though it's about as dumb as it gets.

So bad, there is even a documentary on how it is brilliantly flawed http://bestworstmovie.com/

Pretty much any of the old Mystery Science Theater 3000 movies.  Awful movies with sarcastic commentary.  Especially look out for any Gamera movie, Pod People, Mitchell, Attack of the the Eye Creatures (not a typo, that's how they made the title) and the king of bad movies, Manos: The Hands of Fate.  Which literally means Hands: The Hands of Fate.

This is one of the most coherent scenes in the movie.

"Beerfest" is another flick that's really, really, REALLY not a good movie - but I absolutely love it.
