The "so-bad-it 's-good" film is trickier to pull off than one might think. If it’s too bad, it gets tired quickly and isn’t fun, like 2010s Birdemic: Shock and Terror (although that film has its champions). If the intent was to make a bad film but it turned out better than expected, or it looks fantastic but sucks anyway, it becomes a "bad good" film. Take Spider-Man 3, for example: it looks great, the effects are good, and it has the same creative team, yet it still fails.

Australia has historically been a hotbed for boundary-pushing new horror films, and this year is no different. Penny Lane Is Dead, a blackly comedic horror film, is set to debut at Fantasia Fest in Montreal, Quebec this summer. Collider is proud to exclusively present a first look at the movie's new poster.
