He has to be trying, who bankrolls those movies? They have to be losing money
My understanding is that he's a lawyer and independently finances his films.

I mean, it has a certain level of humorous, but not top tier because it's self aware.
Good shitty films are mostly made by people genuinely trying to make something good but just don't know how.

BIRDEMIC the GOAT, if not that then Troll 2 but I think Troll 2 was intentionally bad as well

That's the "You can't piss on hospitality!" one, right?
Yes, I think the Italian director did write some scenes to have comedic elements, and fans sometimes miss that.

For me the gold standard is The Room. Sincere but very misguided director who writes acts and finances. Total creative control, and unintentionally funny.

Never seen The Room but I've heard good/bad things, maybe I should check it out

It's rare that the hype is real.

But, sincere director/producer/star. Bad dialogue, epically bad. Bad storytelling. Bad acting. The cinematography is worth watching on its own lack of merit.

It's a movie so bad it wraps around to being entertaining.

To be fair half the horror movies of the 80's 90's were comically bad tho. maybe they thought this shit would be actually scary compared to other shit, but one of my all time favorite cheesy horror movies was from Craven. bad acting, weak plot but it had an atmosphere about it that made the whole thing fun to watch.
