I'd consider a guilty pleasure being the kind of movie you're not calling up your friends to say you're watching, or even readily admit to owning. But for some reason, known or unknown, you really like them. That being said, a few of mine:
The Adventures of Pluto Nash. Yeah, I know.
Any of the "Iron Eagle" movies. Lou Gossett Jr. rocks.
Deep Blue Sea. "I got eaten by a shark! A F*&^%ing shark!"

Seems so many movies posted here don't classify as a guilty treasure. A lot were hits in their day.
Couple of mine would be "October Sky", "Save The Last Dance" or "A Walk to Remember"

I love Tron.
My friends mock me for it, but I LOVE that movie. I own the 20th Anniversary Edition, and I've played through the Tron 2.0 video game. Tron Tron Tron!

I can say...
The Notebook, A Walk to Remember would be my guilty pleasures everyone would know about... Then there's this movie called Everything You Want (Which not many people have heard of I think) that I like...
I dunno if Wall-E Counts, but I'll put that in there just in case it does.

Haha exactly, I mean who is going to denigrate someone for watching any of the "Evil Dead" trilogy, those movies are made entirely of atoms from the planet known as Unbelievably Sweet!
To be a guilty pleasure, a movie has to be at least poor, and preferably complete crap. "Top Gun" doesn't count unless you are a tortured goth or something who isn't allowed to like stuff blowing up, and "Princess Bride" is only a guilty pleasure if you are some kind of wresting/racing/MMA fan who is afraid liking a movie with princesses and a love story is somehow going to weaken his complete devotion to mindless masculinity. And if you feel guilty about watching "Reservoir Dogs"... there's just no hope there.
It's like me saying, "You know, I find that Halle Berry hot - I understand that makes me a freak, but DAMMIT I LOVE HER ANYWAY!!!"

Yeah. You're right. I think I started thinking about movies that I'll stop to watch if they're on TV.
If we're aiming for cheesy but you watch it anyway and secretly enjoy, I'll throw Independence Day in there. And Robocop. And that movie with Nicloe Kidman and Tom Cruise when they're the immigrants from Ireland. Days of Old? Days of Our Lives? Times of Life? Once Upon A Time? WTF is the name of that movie? Google is but a click away...

Next thing you know, you'll be driving properly!! 
And I just scrolled up to see that someone said The Notebook. I started watching that movie because the chick was hot. Who was it? Scarlett Johanson? Can't remember, but the chick got me watching it and the next thing I knew, I watched the whole thing. I gotta say, it's a pretty good movie. Total chick flick, but the kind of chick flick I can handle. Not a ######ed one like Legally Blonde.
But the last scene in The Notebook kinda got to me a bit with the two people dying together. It really reminded me of my grandparents. The situation was totally different, but really quite the same. That makes no sense to anyone but me.
