I remember as a kid growing up in the Bay Area, there was a theater in Berkeley that used to show Where's Poppa? at midnight, not every weekend but rather commonly. A few years later I finally saw it and recall it being hilarious, but it's just been so long since I've seen it. Same for Oh God.

I'm watching this poll with great interest but not participating because I've seen so few of these films, and so long ago.
