Place a hold on some of the best worst movies:
Disguised as friendly country folk, a pugnacious posse of people-eating trolls lures visitors to their town. But a family of four is about to discover that this place is a real tourist trap -- and they're the prey! (This film is also available to stream through Kanopy; we also recommend Best Worst Movie, a documentary about the film's notorious creation and reception.)
A black comedy in which a man about to be married is betrayed by his fiancée.
A young man at the peak of his career believes that he is a vampire after being bitten by "the woman of his dreams" on their first date.
Smart, hyperactive and dangerous, ten-year-old Clifford Daniels will stop at nothing to get to Dinosaurworld theme park in Los Angeles.
Pistachio Disguisey is a mild-mannered waiter whose life is about to change. A criminal mastermind kidnaps his parents and is forcing his father to steal priceless treasures from around the world. His grandfather informs him he is descended from a long line of disguise artists and now it's up to Pistachio to save the day. (This film is also available to stream through Kanopy.)
Madame Web
After a near-fatal accident in the line of duty, Cassandra Webb -- a New York City paramedic -- starts to show signs of clairvoyance. Through her visions and a journey of self-discovery, she is forced to confront revelations about her past and how it is connected to a specific spider, and learns she must protect three young women from a mysterious adversary who wants them dead. (This film is also available on Blu-Ray and 4K Ultra HD.)
