‘So bad its good’ is a type of enjoyment that seems specific to film
and television. You probably wouldn’t wilfully listen to a terrible
album, read a lousy book or go to see thematically redundant art, and
yet many of us will sit down and watch the worst movie we can find with
glee.
For the first time, academics have delved into this phenomenon, with the journal Poetics
this week publishing a study entitled: ‘Enjoying trash films:
Underlying features, viewing stances, and experiential response
dimensions’.
"At first glance it seems paradoxical that someone should
deliberately watch badly made, embarrassing and sometimes even
disturbing films, and take pleasure in them,” writes Keyvan Sarkhosh,
postdoctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Empirical
Aesthetics.

The team started by trying to ascertain exactly what makes a film
‘trash’, with the most common characteristic respondents cited being
their “cheapness”. Low budget horror films were the most common example,
probably because they’re so plentiful and so easily churned out.
Ironic viewing is obviously what is at play here, and the researchers
found it is mostly film buffs who watch trash films, which would make
sense, as very often their enjoyment comes down to analyses of
production values, dialogue and plot structure.
"To such viewers, trash films appear as an interesting and
welcome deviation from the mainstream fare", says Sarkhosh. "We are
dealing here with an audience with above-average education, which one
could describe as 'cultural omnivores'. Such viewers are interested in a
broad spectrum of art and media across the traditional boundaries of
high and popular culture." He went on to explain that their engagement
in film culture is demonstrated by their discussion of these films in
blogs and forums.
"I told you so! People saying trash film is bad for you, but here's a study saying the opposite. As
a child I've always been called slow and not quite ok in my head. Now
35 years later I understand I never was retarded or stupid but highly
intelligent and it was the environment surrounding me that brought me
down. Today 45 years of age I understand my value and what I have
achieved so far and where I'm heading. It's been a tough road and I keep
on struggling. Here's an advice to all of you who want to make movies.
Do it. Do it. Do it. Don't be afraid to fail and never give up". Jonas Wolcher - Producer and Director
"Att få sin film recenserad och totalt sågad av Felix är som en ovation likt den man får när folk lämnar en biograf mitt under en visning av sin film. Det kan låta märkligt, men det är en härlig känsla att folk orkar bry sig så mycket att de gör ett försök på att förstå något som man producerade för mer än 10 år sedan. Tack grabbar för att ni finns". - Jonas Wolcher - Regissör och Producent Dragonetti The Ruthless Contract Killer - IMDB
