Holga
Plastic Russian-made medium format camera (b. 1982). Leaky, unpredictable results, great bright colors. Used for lo-fi art photography.
“Plastic fantastic!” is a nice introductory article, with illustrations.
Once you’re sold on it, you need to get one. You can get a low-cost cheap Holga itself, or spend just a few bucks more and get a lomo starter kit
that comes with all kinds of accessories.

Fuji still makes great film available at a discount in bulk (this is Velvia RVP 100 color slide film, great for the Holga).
