When I was a teen I stopped into the local theater to see a flick that starred Ringo. Despite a cast with more A listers than I've ever seen, the movie tanked and became a cult classic. I streamed it for free recently.

"Candy" is unbelievably bad, but mesmerizing at the same time. I recently streamed it for free.
The movie you never heard of with a cast you've never seen in one place.

I was having modem issues that made it hard to post. I think I fixed it.
Nope. The movie is so bad I can't link directly to it. You have to find it under "Candy" disambiguation
