Xanadu, SHOWGIRLS. By far, Showgirls is the best -- must see. It is sooo campy and funny from start to finish. It was panned for bad acting and a terrible script/directing. But I kid you not, it is very unintentionally funny. Here are my fav scenes:

Showgirls 1

I am frankly a little shocked and surprised that nobody mentioned the two most obvious choices of camp at it's finest..Valley of the Dolls and Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. For shame.

Camp is a very camp movie.

Did anyone mention Rocky Horror? I don't know if you'd call it camp but The Bird Cage is a great flick.

I loved Valley Of The Dolls. It was such a campy movie that tried so hard to be taken serious. And just the thought that Judy Garland was originally supposed to play Helen Lawson makes it more campy!!!!

The Meryl Streep camp collection:

Death Becomes Her.
She Devil.

Imagine how wonderful it would have been if she HAD played that role!?! Judy Garland vs. Patty Duke in the ladies room. One can only wonder...
