Flesh Gordon (1974)

How bad is it? It's a 1970's hard-core porn film with all the sex removed.
Should you see it? No.

This film has some very good stop-motion animation by followers of Ray Harryhausen, but it also has unending terrible jokes - Emperor Ming of Mongo becomes Emperor Wang of Porno, for example - and it probably could've been written by a nine year-old boy. This film became legendary for scenes supposedly deleted, but no unedited version has ever appeared. It's probably your only chance to see Candy Samples, who had the largest natural breasts in hard-core; her character has an eye patch and a hook hand, which is about as subtle as she ever got. Very surprisingly, this had a sequel 16 years later that's quite good!
