Hands down... Armageddon. The only movie so bad that NASA employees use it for drinking games ( I.e. Every time you spot a scientific inaccuracy take a shot)

I don't know if it's THE cheesiest, but Buckaroo Banzai certainly has a good shot :)

I would have to say the original " The Day The Earth Stood Still " . That rubber robot suit was the worst! Still a fantastic film

Flash Gordon, hanfs down. But cool music by Queen. But very much an over-the-top campy movie.

Iron Sky. Nazi's on the moon. You know what, never mind, it was fantastic.

Maybe "Zombeavers" (zombie beavers) or "Poultrygheist: Night of the Chicken Dead"?

"They Live" with Rowdy Roddy Piper. Also, quite possibly the best movie line ever.

All the great ones have already been mentioned, so I guess the game now is to think of a cheesy movie everyone else forgot.

How about "Killer Klowns From Outer Space"?

How has no one mentioned the Star Wars Holiday Special? It's so bad, it makes Jar Jar Binks seem like an awesome idea.

SPC Angel Guma Plan 9 from Outer Space. Bela Lugosi died during the filing of an overdose. They used the same sots of him over and over. Flying saucers [trash can lids] had strings visible. Cemetery always dark. It was so bad it became a classic and is considered the worst film of all time.

Any attempt to apply logic to this movie will likely result in your brain exploding, but it's Kurt Russell in his prime kicking butt!
