Bad Kung Fu Advice

I'm thinking of having a day long (potentially two) Kung Fu marathon where my friends and I will watch terrible Kung Fu movies and make fun of the dubbing, plot, acting, etc. Do you know of any movies that I absolutely must show?
It is your duty as a filmgoer to see Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World.

If you remember the clip of the head getting smashed on The Daily Show, this is the movie it came from. It's a really funny movie.
shaolin soccer
and the other one by stephen chow
fuck what is that called
right
Kung Fu Hustle
Twin Dragons (also known as Tai Chi Master)
The Jackie Chan City Hunter movie (maybe, might be too intentionally funny for what you're looking for though.)
Meltdown (aka High Risk)
Master of the Flying Guillotine
The Street Fighter (the Sonny Chiba one not the Van Damme one)
Twitter
And also I absolutely love Duel to the Death. Such an awful movie.
Shogun Streams Vidya
And the entire Drunken Master series. Especially every scene with So Hai in it.
crippled avengers
kung fu rascals
Kung Fu vampires (maybe zombies, been awhile)
Chinese Super Ninjas
Any other movie from the Shaw Brothers.
Almost any of Chan's movies from before rumble in the bronx.
Not all of these are "bad" but they are awesome in their own ways.
I wish I could remember more, but I love these movies... they re so entertaining.
And mentioning that movie always reminds me of Showdown in Little Tokyo. Which is more of a terrible action movie from 1991, starring Dolph Lundgren (aka Ivan Drago from Rocky IV) and Brandon Lee (the son of Bruce Lee) as buddy cops. That one certainly fits the "hilariously bad" criteria, and it even has some martial arts.
Johnny Murata: Kenner, just incase we get killed, I wanted to tell you that you have the biggest dick I've ever seen on a man.
Chris Kenner: [nods] Thank you.
EDIT:
It's like a live action spoof of a bad anime flick. Really good wire-fu and decent special effects, but completely absurd story line involving super powers, the kung fu equivalent of hogwart's, and teacher vs. student duels. It's a lot of fun.
CUZ THERE'S SOMETHING IN THE MIDDLE AND IT'S GIVING ME A RASH
You don't need an excuse, just slam it in the drive.
Along those lines, Berry Gordy's Last Dragon.

And add Shaolin vs. Lama. Horrible, therefore hysterical, dubbing
It's probably exactly what you're looking for.
LFT. If you do not watch this then it is not a kung fu marathon.
It's incredible.
Fake edit: Beaten.
damn you for beating me too this..... It was brandon lee's finest work.
Its freaking awesome. It will change your life.

A couple of Thalidomide-baby actors join forces to create a complete kung-fu fighter with 4 limbs, 2 torsos, and 2 heads! You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll be astounded.
It's both hilarious to watch and strangely sensational, with unique acrobatics to boot.
Shogun Assassin is a great old-style poorly dubbed movie (the one they mentioned in Kill Bill) - though its Japanese - not chinese.
If you want a good watch - Jet Li's Fist of Legend is great too.
My recommendation would be to intermix the "bad ones" with some real classics that get mentioned in the thread.

Yes. And, might I add, yes!
Also, Half a Loaf of Kung Fu. Perhaps the greatest movie title ever.

I picked up a 10 kungfu movie pack for my fiancee once that had a horrible black sploitation film starring a Jim Kelly (no not the bills qb of same name). If you can find Black Samurai it has the best black man on midget meele ever put to film.

Seriously, there's bad, and then there's BAD, if you get my meaning.

You, sir, are the winner.
So, IIRC, Japanese Nazis have taken several important Allied generals hostage during WWII, including General Abraham Lincoln. The Fantasy Mission Force must go to Canada to rescue them from the Nazis, who are also working with roman legionaries in convertibles.
