By Jon Manson /

Terrible movies are abundant. They're everywhere. Films can be terrible for a variety of reasons. Maybe there were too many cooks in the kitchen, maybe the movie just got away from the makers. Whatever the reasons are, terrible movies exist and will always exist. However, nobody sets out to make a bad movie (let's hope) which means every idea starts as good and pure. This is why sometimes we watch terrible flicks and feel like there is something truly watchable about them. It could be that an interesting theme survived rewrites, a supporting character is more original than they should be or some cool sequences make the whole thing stand out. One element that make a terrible movie is standout is having an awesome protagonist. When we settle in with our six pack ready for a pounding of a bad film, it's always nice to have a tongue in cheek or strangely likable protagonist to guide us through the mess while we get more and more inebriated. Let's take a look at five movies that are terrible and yet presented us with wierdly awesome protagonists we can help but root for and watch.
