schlockier
Of lower quality
Schlockier is the comparative form of schlocky, meaning of lower quality or more cheaply made.
Schlock, from Yiddish, refers to cheap, trashy, or inferior goods—especially entertainment: The sequel was even schlockier than the original.
The word carries affectionate contempt, acknowledging something's appeal despite its shoddiness.
