Oh, this franchise is a whooooooole different animal (literally) from the sharknado franchise.
This and I’ll add The Last Dragon and Escape From New York.

The best was the premise in the 4th one where the shark 'follows' the family down to the Bahamas.
I was sitting on the couch with my daughter a few weeks ago and Bloodsport came on. After five minutes, my daughter goes "Are you really going to watch this?"
I didn't look at her or say a word. I merely held up the remote and then gently set it down beside me.

You're talking Jaws. How did we get there from sharknado & multi-headed sharks?
Side note: each sequel of Jaws was exponentially worse than its immediate predecessor. IMO.
By "can't stop watching," do you mean actively seeking it, or if you happen upon it, you watch it? (or perhaps it's both, just making sure).
My family really enjoys The Greatest Showman because of the music. The rest of the movie is meh, not terrible.
Road House, Twister and The Rock are towards the top of my list for bad movies that I can watch anytime.
Tombstone. I absolutely love the movie. But it's also really quite awful in several places. Yet I've watched it at least 200-300 times.

I see a lot of besmirching of John Carpenter in this thread and I won't have it.
Big Trouble in Little China is a cinematic masterpiece. I formed this theory when I was 8-12 years old and rented that movie more times than I could count. I should have just had my mom buy the VHS.
What?!? Tombstone is NOT a bad movie. Not at all.
Out Cold. Zach Galifinakis was in it before he got popular from the Hangover.
David Koechner's character "Stumpy" had a great line in that move.
"I was there. Yeah, It was called the '80s. Ford was President, Nixon was in the White House and FDR was running this country into the ground."
As an example, go to the 3:00 mark and watch how awful the scene is where Virgil stands there with Ike running his mouth. If I had only watched the movie once it would stand as stellar. But having watched it a few hundred times it has some really bad acting in places.
You know, the Eskimo have nine words for a hell mooch stuck in a hot tub... Hell, they only have 8 words for snow!
