Ok. What do you think is the worst movie ever? Please explain. My personal worst is Catwoman. I don't care if Halle Berry were naked, that still would've sucked.

Starship Troopers was really, really bad. And they made a sequel... XXX2 can't be any good, either.

Hmm...I thought that Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones sucked more awesomely than most films. The way I see it, a movie isn't bad if you laugh at it unintentionally. For example, when I first saw Plan 9 From Outer Space, I laughed so hard I feel out of my chair. I can't laugh at Attack of the Clones.

I always thought Starship Troopers was awesome. I saw it when I was 7 though, so basically all I got from it was "Wow! That was a HUGE kaboom!"
But yeah, I heard XXX-2 sucked some serious @$$.

Well I saw Chariots of Fire when I was 5 and it bored the heck out of me - now it's one of my favorite films. Ditto for Gandhi - the only time I think I woke up was the Amritsar Massacre scene. Kids just like things that go Kaboom.

On the other hand I loved Iron Eagle 1 when I was a kid and spent $20 to buy it and say, WHAT WAS I THINKING!!

I'm a Film Major, forgive me.

Plan 9 from Outer Space was voted worst movie and worst direction of all time at the golden Turkey festival.

I also saw a poster in a video store for "Land Before Time 9: the search for the fire Gem or the Mystic lake or the golden prostitute or whatever the fuck it is they are looking for this time". I remember seeing the original when I was 5 (hand drawn animation). That means they're averaging one almost every year. This one was crappy CGI, probably 5 frames per second, straight to video schlock. I think that might be candidate for worst movie ever, but unfortunately nobody is brave enough to watch it and find out.

You're mixing it up dearie. The name is ... you know. Now the rumor going around at the time is that the name was the pet name for either Marion Davis or her genitalia. Marion Davis was the mistress of William Randolph Hearst, who Welles based the movie on (and who later, through connections, tried to kill the film and even have the negatives burned!)

I was Sergei Eisenstein in a past life, trust me on this,

I think that Napoleon Dynamite was the worst movie ever made. It had bad acting, no storyline or plot whatsoever, and the only part that I even chuckled at (very softly mind you) was when the farmer shot the cow (or was it a horse) with the busload of young children driving by. Something is wrong with that. I can only describe the movie as a two hour waste of my life as I waited for something even remotely amusing to happen. (Which, I might add, was in vain).

I used to work in a video store while going to Uni, the absolute worst movie of all time is... Chicken Park.

A 'Jurassic Park' spoof film in which a mad scientist breeds giant chickens and they escape to attack the people on the mad scientists island.

Made in Italy with highly sexual jokes which mostly died as they were more stupid than funny. ie a homosexual chicken which is enticed out of the jungle by a village people look alike.

Only movie I have ever turned off.

PS - Starship Troopers rocks and Starship Troopers 2 sucks big time, but I still watched it all the way thru. "Fresh meat for the grinder!"

Titanic. Big yawn.

I don't know. Can't argue with success I guess. Titanic and Star Wars Episode IV - the greatest B MOVIES ever made.

But Titanic has (pardon the pun) a solid structure I think, it's partly based on Citizen Kane structurally at least - guy is searching for a mysterious object (Titanic: Heart of the Ocean/C.K:the mysterious last words of Kane, 'Rosebud'), guy must 'travel back in time' through the narratives of a character (Old Rose) or characters (the memoirs, Mr. Bernstein, Jed Leyland, Susan Alexander Kane, the Butler) to discover it and finds out so much and yet never finds out in the end. It's dramatic irony at its loveliest and most profound.

No no no... Spondge Bob Square Pants Movie was on the other day. Is has to the single worst movie ever made. Every actor and actress that participated in making that film should be found and shot for being so stupid. I just cannot comprehend how people could have created such a sinister character as Sponge Bob...whenever I hear his laugh or see him... i usually take 2-4 tylonols... its almost as bad as my Jar Jar Nightmares.

Runners Up:
1. The Beverly Hillbillies Movie
2. Rookie of the Year
3. Surf Ninjas
4. Star Wars: The Phantom Menace
5. Honey We Shrunk Ourselves
6. Cold Mountain
7. XXX
8. The Mask
9. Rise Of a NAtion (Classic... humorous... but a waste of 20 hours)
10. The Scooby Doo Movie



FYI. Starship Troopers, where is lacked superb acting did have cool special effects and ok dialogue. It was pretty lame at points, but it was awesome... I always wanted to be a Citizen of the Federation and be like Colonel Carl Jenkins (Ricos telepathic friend)... and end up still using lines from the movie likle "Nuke Em Rico" and "Kill em, Kill em all"

Well, Star wars II was worse than Star Wars III only because III had less dialogue. I was extremely disappointed when I saw Ep III because it was way too rushed. I believe it should have been 4 hrs long, that way they could better transfer. The deaths of all the Jedi lasted a total of about 10 min out of 21/2 hrs. Way too short. But Yoda's "attempted murder" was Awesome!!
Overall I loved the movie. Oh and Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman should not have been in the film: They are TERRIBLE!!


Here is a pretty good comment on the film: "Apart from some of the aforementioned dialogue clunkers and some wobbly pacing, this film is the most satisfying of the prequel trilogy. It is clear that the previous two installments were the groundwork for this, the final payoff. It is also just nice to see old friends again, including the latest return character, Chewbacca."

the worst movie ever was collateral. It was retarded. The guy ran. He shot. I write. Subject verb sentences only. Because I'm bored. This is hard. I thought it might be easy. I write simple sentences only. Now I have nothing to talk about. I will talk about collateral and the intensity of it sucking. Arnold Schwartzenegger was a f*cking idiot. He doesn't make a good dad. That is why Jingle All The Way was stupid too. Schwartzenegger is the worst family figure ever. That is why his wife won't have sex with him. He only shoots robots. All simple sentences. No complex sentences. Now I will make a complex sentence because I'm bored but I have nothing else to do. Oops, that was compound. Whatever. I hate Warren G. Harding.

Did you see ED WOOD? Not a horrible movie by any stretch but a great movie about the most 'horrible movie maker in history' who directed PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE. Priceless!!

CAthenia... maybe you dont know what a B-Movie is. B is for "low Budget" film... Star Wars and the Titanic both had high budgets... and were motion picture blockbusters...

B-Movies would be like: The Creature Walks Among Us (1956), The Deadly Mantis (1957), The Island Earth (1955), Plant 9 From Outer Space (1959), Cat Women Of the Moon (1954) etc, etc... of course it wasn't only limited to sci-fi, but Musicals, Thrillers, Westerns, Comedies, and War Movies.

*smacks on head*... Dont disgrace Classic B-Movies by even putting that crap "Titanic" under that title... fool.

Sorry Cathenia... posted before your new post... Plan 9 From Outer Space is a great movie... even though a B-movie. Ed Wood was a genius... paper plates as flying saucers... good ending too. Not one of my favorite movies, but certainly makes it among my top 50 B-Film list.

Portman's not bad, she's not really getting much to work with off of Hayden (I can't argue with you on that, the Skywalker's seem to have a tradition of being played by lousy actors. Even the kid playing baby Luke was terrible ;) ). She's also working with some of the worst dialogue ever written.

A pretty decent actress, though.

Well, the long awaited movie finally came to the big screens Wednesday night. I waited over an hour in the theater to get good seats with my friends eating popcorn and doing Star Wars trivia. I had my lightsaber, SW clothes, etc. I was pretty psyched up about the whole movie.

As a movie goer, I see tons of stuff on and off the big screen. Movies from the very early days of film to modern classics. I do not distinguish a film as good or bad becuase I like the genre. I may not care for a movie, but will rate it high because it was infact a good movie... just not to my taste.

After seeing Star Wars Epsiode 3: I rate it 2 Stars on a 5 star scale.

The movie's opneing was highly disappointing. The words scrolling up the screen were terrible... who could write such crap! It was so lame. Then the beginning was so stupid. I hated how the tried to make it funny but it was just lame! Seriously... Count Dooku whoops ass in Episode 2... then in Episode 3 he dies 10 mins into the movie. What the hell was that about?

The dialogue during the whole movie seemed to have been written by a fifth grader. Better stuff has been written on subway walls and in bathrooms in Greenwitch Village. Honestly... can we get any more shitty lines than the ones put in this movie? (possibly in Episode 2 when Anakin and Padme are alone on Naboo together... that was bad.)

It's like Lucas tries to cover up terrible writing with action packed excitement. Yeah the action was good... no even good. It was OK! The CGI was terrible I thought. Which covered practically the whole movie. I don't know what there was to actually direct on Lucas' part. Everything was so glossy and fake. It really didn't make me appreciate the movie. The only good part is when all the Jedi are killed.

Plus Jar Jar had to be in the movie.... why?! WHY?!!!!! I mean... if he was gutted and sold at the market... hell... that would have been awesome. But why put him in the movie again... its like a bad dream.

There were still many inconsistancies with the original movies and the books and with these new movies that Lucas has been putting out.

All in all, as a critic of movies... it was a horrible movie. Everyone as Star Wars fans will diasgree with me because they are STAR WARS FANS... and not movie fans.

Is it worse than Episodes 1 and 2 though? Because those REALLY suck. I find it hard to believe that the 3rd is worse than those two. Because, I mean, those are some pretty bad movies to beat.

Hey, I always thought Mark Hamill was good.

Well, he does get upstaged by a Muppet. But that being said, I've always agreed that Hamill actually did a pretty good job throughout the series of changing from a youth spoiling for adventure to a steely Jedi.

And for the record, if there were an Oscar handed out for the actors who did the most with the worst possible dialogue, they would easily go to Hayden Christenson and Natalie Portman. Don't pass off the troubles of Eps. I and II on them (although to be perfectly honest, I don't think the dialogue is quite as clunky as fans make it out to be. After all, you're not exactly going to get a Seduction 101 class at the Jedi Academy, so Anakin's fumbling dialogue is pretty appropriate when you think about it), but rather lay it on who it belongs: George Lucas.

Well, they did have pretty big budgets but plot-wise they ultmately are Buck-Rodgers-style space opera and Romeo-and-Juliet-type melodrama that's been spruced up and dignified. Not saying that they're great pictures but they're at glorified B-pictures.

Well I hate to tell you this but it was Hearst who Welles based Kane on, it was Hearst's mistress... Rosebud in the film is just a word that, like an abstract painting, you can attach any value or meaning to.

The movie's opneing was highly disappointing. The words scrolling up the screen were terrible... who could write such crap! It was so lame. Then the beginning was so stupid. I hated how the tried to make it funny but it was just lame! Seriously... Count Dooku whoops ass in Episode 2... then in Episode 3 he dies 10 mins into the movie. What the hell was that about?

The dialogue during the whole movie seemed to have been written by a fifth grader. Better stuff has been written on subway walls and in bathrooms in Greenwitch Village. Honestly... can we get any more shitty lines than the ones put in this movie? (possibly in Episode 2 when Anakin and Padme are alone on Naboo together... that was bad.)


I think a big problem and opportunity nowadays is, with the 'empire' of marketing and mass media, you need to see other parts of the story in other venues (ie. you gotta shell out more DOUGH!) A lot I believe was explained in the cartoon series STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS, that the brilliant G.Tartakovski (who does Samurai Jack) created at GL's behest. My sis tells me (she's got links to Cartoon Network and stuff) that Dooku and even the asthmatic Grievous are better explained here.

It's like with the Animatrix. There are events in Matrix that are explained better by this, but to its credit, the Matrix films don't necessarily need Animatrix to explain a lot. Here I think you lose a sense of just who characters like Grievous are if you don't see the series.

But yeah, Lee should have had TONS more time onscreen. He's way cooler than those Nemoidian viceroys heheh - he's Christopher "I am Saruman and Frankenstein and a ton of great horror characters" Lee for pete's sake. Why waste that?

And on the second para - I've seen fan films better written and ACTED than some of the scenes in Ep3.

Hey, did anyone see the sequel to the Blair Witch Project? Because if there's anything worse than a terrible horror movie, it's its sequel.

I first saw BWP on my own will, hearing many rave review I thought I had to check it out for myself. Good God. I was too stubborn to get up and leave, I had never done that to a movie by that point in my life, but I really with that I had walked out on that one. BWP 2, my family rented that, I came out to see what they were watching, only to with that I hadn't. I saw less than a minute of that shit, but I was damn near ready to gouge my eyes out with a frying pan it was that bad.

The suckiness is everywhere in this pathetic historical movie. At some point, in a important battle against the Roman, you see the women of the clan showing there boobs in an attempt to distract the roman guard while the man are doing a surprise attack. I mean, can anyone could go lower than that (and im not talking about the women's tactic)?

It's really a bad rip off of the Braveheart franchise, an utter no budget wet fart of a movie whose real life inspiration is probably turning in his grave and deserved much better. There's a recreation (pretty low-budget too considering) of Boudicca's life in Lucy Lawless' Warrior Women series that was better shot and directed than that piece of crap.

The problem with Star Wars III is that everyone keeps trying to compare it to the original trilogy, which is like comparing cheap pork to an expensive steak. personally, i thought it was better than the previous 2, though i admit some of the dialog was rather lame.

as for bad movies, i have the feeling that all the worst ones i've seen were on mystery science theater 3000, though i doubt i'd remember them as being that bad cause i was laughing too much. i remember one particularly bad one about a guy who went by the name of "puma man"...

3) The Patriot - Just as Mel Gibson was sliding into insanity, he dreamed up this farcical rendition of the southern campaign of the Revolutionary War as it transpired in some parallel dimension.

2) Alexander - Ok! We get it! He liked dudes!!

And the worst movie of all time...

1) The Passion of the Christ - Mel Gibson tipped over from mildly insane to barking lunatic with this two-hour bloodbath. And the star absolutely *insisted* that they really drive nails through his hands. Honestly, there is so much wrong here on so many levels that there isn't enough storage space on the internet to discuss it all.

At least we now know why Jim Caviezel made such a great insane Edmund Dantes in The Count of Monte Cristo.

'Night Mother with Sissy Spacek. The entire movie consists of Spacek (who lives with her mother) threatening to commit suicide in front of her mother, talking about how miserable she is, etc., etc. then after close to two wretched hours of this, finally doing it. The only way the movie could have been improved on was to have Spacek kill herself in the first ten minutes of the film. Or have her mother kill her. What an utter waste of celluloid.
I thought whomever wrote that tripe should have been taken out and beaten. Or, have a Vogon read his poetry to him/her failing that.

Read the original RANDALL WALLACE (Yes Braveheart and Man in the Iron Mask Wallace) script - it has a WAY better ending!

In the movie, Mel has a choice, rally the men and steady the line by grabbing the flag or take revenge on 'Tavington' (Tarleton) - in the movie (maybe because it's gone on for too long but a good ending would have made that worth it!!) he literally has his cake and eats it too. He steadies the line and kills Tavington. In the original Wallace script, Tavington gets away and they meet again at Yorktown. George Washington has surrounded the town and tells Ben Martin, "By the way, Tavington's Green Dragoons are on the North Peninsula. Give him my regards"

Martin hasn't used up the lead soldier bullets and while Tavington, the Loyalist Officer et al are trying to escape to New York to continue the war, Martin shows off the SKILLZ that made him such a legend in the French and Indian War. A great and CATHARTIC ending instead of that contrived travesty that ended what was perhaps one of the best villains I've ever seen (Jason Isaacs was brilliant in what was technically his first blockbuster role).

The way it stands now, Yorktown was tacked on and the postwar era was this glorious hokey fake world where white and black are equal and you don't give a rip about it all. The movie was too sanitized. White and black equal at that time in the SOUTH?

And I hated how his friend, based on Light Horse Harry Lee, names his son after Martin's dead son. Why didn't they just use roman-a-clef and make him Light Horse Harry so he can name his son ROBERT EDWARD LEE?

The big problem I had was that I truly enjoyed Braveheart, and it still ranks as one of my favorite movies of all time. When I looked into it, I found that they didn't Hollywood-up the events as much as we might have expected, and that with certain exceptions it was a historically useful movie. I was expecting more of the same from The Patriot. I suppose it makes good cinema, but as history it's a pile of trash. Gibson's character is part Daniel Morgan, part Francis Marion, and part fantasy. And the way Gibson has to keep zipping between his Marion persona and his Morgan persona is ridiculous. "Okay, boys, I know I'm just a random guerilla commander, but I have to go give orders to the Continental army now. I'll be back in time for the next raid, though."

Tavington is loosely based on Tarleton, but obviously even Tarleton wasn't evil enough. The goofy battle in which Tavington goes down represents a clumsy marriage of events at Cowpens and Guilford Courthouse. It's just stupid. Randall Wallace took some family pride in telling the story of his clansman William, and apparently held no such affection for America.

I should really clarify things - I LOVE BRAVEHEART despite it's horrendous butchery of history, it is true to the legend I think and conveys with passion and emotion the story of this Scottish hero. I just meant 'The Patriot'. Yeah agree with you 100% - it wasn't Randall Wallace's fault, I think - his Man in the Iron Mask wasn't a blockbuster hit but it had a TON of heart and some of the chemistry between these veteran actors - Irons, Depardieu, Malkovich, Byrne - that all of them shine! It's that bloody idiot who did ID4 who's at fault as the director and 'auteur' he butchered Wallace's script.

Hmmm... well wouldn't you know it. Where the heck did I get the idea it was Randall's script - MY BAD sheesh apologies all around.

Maybe it's the R in their names! It was Robert Rodat who wrote Saving Private Ryan and Fly Away Home. MY BAD MY BAD MY BAD MY BAD

I've deliberately avoided Mel Gibson as I frankly don't much care to be told how all the English are evil and how he's the most dynamic action hero in the world. :rolleyes:

Starship Troopers is a fabulous movie. Fabulous, fabulous fabulous. It's funny, it's got good action (especially if you're a Warhammer 40K fan), it's satirical (watching Full Metal Jacket first is important). Haven't seen two, though I hear it's not as good...

I have to agree with that... a plot with more holes than a Swiss Cheese factory (that btw took nearly no regard at all to the original VG plot), Van Damme, who couldn't act his way out of a paper bag, and a half-dead Raul Julia with a plastic muscle suit. It's difficult to watch that movie without retching.

I also watched the National Lampoon thing with Wally World when I was very small and I thought it was pretty funny (never noticed Christy Brinkley though, strangely enough) but when I watched it again (like so many films I watched in my youth) I was like... I enjoyed THAT so much?

My worst films ever have already been mentioned, the worst is Battlefield Earth. I love science fiction, but this is one of the only films I've ever fast forwarded through.

I thought AI was terrible, which is inexcusable for a high budget and well acted film. It should have been redone as the adventures of Gigolo Joe, that was the only decent character in the film.

I quite liked Starship Troopers, mostly for the shower scene.

Freddy Got Fingered, just a bad film, but that's mostly intentional. Rip Torn's naked arse is the funniest bit. Actually it's not BAD it's just WRONG!

Just watched Kill Bill I, was ok but the fighting and wirework was just too over the top. The blood was overdone and vulgar, lossed impact because of it.

The worst one I have seen, would be "Orgy of the Dead."

I have however, seen movies that make that one look good by comparison.

Did you actually watch it? the sinking of the Titanic took a bit over half an hour in the movie. The average movie has a running time of 90 minutes, so you watched a one third of a movie long ship sinking. Maybe it seemed like less because the movie was so much longer than average.

The single film that I have watched at the cinema which I have been tempted to walk out of was "Death Becomes Her". There are films that I've seen on TV that I've changed channel from, but then there are ones I like and yet refuse to watch certain bits of (wander into the other room, take abreak, something) because it's just so mind-churningly embaressing at times so I can't really use that as an excuse. But of the films I've seen at the cinema, none has come so close to pursuading me to foreit my admission fee and leave as that.

"Wishmaster" was a film I wish I hadn't wasted my time watching, but it was 'entertaining' (for certain values of...) and so I sat through it, appreciating it for the comedy (well, what I perceived as comedy) rather than the horror element (which was just too stretched) but would never watch it again.

eyes wide shut...collateral...mission impossible...top gun...anyone noticing a pattern here? thats right; TOM CRUISE! anything with that self-obsessed tosser is bound to be crap! and dont even get me started on that wife of his...

Tom Cruise has some good movies. Top Gun was not only good, it was seminal. It caused a spike in the number of applicants to the navy and air force and started the fighter pilot movie craze. Also there is cocktail, rainman, and of course Interview With a Vampire.

Most boring movie i have ever seen, so wish i had not taken my girlfriend to see it. It was just really, really rubbish.

EDIT: Oh and Eyes Wide Shut was also completely crap, but i hadn't gone to the cinema to watch that so it wasn't so bad for me.

CAthenia... maybe you dont know what a B-Movie is. B is for "low Budget" film... Star Wars and the Titanic both had high budgets... and were motion picture blockbusters...


A B-movie was a film that was distrubuted as the lesser, probably worse film in a double feature. It came on before the "A-movie." Though I don't think any cinemas have double features now so generally the films go straight to video.

Budget has nothing to do with it, though they usually have low budgets.


I don't think the dialogue is quite as clunky as fans make it out to be. After all, you're not exactly going to get a Seduction 101 class at the Jedi Academy, so Anakin's fumbling dialogue is pretty appropriate when you think about it), but rather lay it on who it belongs: George Lucas.

"George, you can write this shit. But you certainly can't say it" - Harrison Ford.



The most recent "Worst Movie Ever" I have seen is probably Final Destinations II. I have no idea if it intended to be as funny as we found it, but dear god, it was just stupid.

Personally, I thought Blade 2 was the weak link, there... the bad guy (Goss) was fantastic... (hard to believe he was a founder member of teen-bop boy band "Bros")... but the drastic overuse of totally unnecessary Computer Generated effects killed it for me.

I thought Blade 2 was good. Nothing fantastic, but just good. Enjoyable ya know? I remember seeing the first Blade when it came out in theatres, now THAT'S fucking entertainment. That movie started off so well I think I remember the director saying the studio execs told him to cut out the first scene because it was SO good it made the rest of the movie look bad in comparison.

Well, Blade 2 DID have redeeming characteristics... Danny John Jules (known to Red Dwarf fans as The Cat) as a vampire assassin, and Goss being fantastic as the Prodigal Vampire son....

And, at least the combat in the first film was more about wires, and less about graphics.

I still favour Blade 3 as the highpoint of the frnachise so far... strangely, pretty much for the same reason you think it the lowpoint... I thought Reynolds was inspirational.

I didn't laugh at ANY of his jokes, and I didn't take kindly to how often he had his shirt off or showed his pubes. Blade was hardly in the movie, they REALLY should have just called it: Nightstalkers: Lameass Movie That's Desguised as a Blade Movie But Really Isn't.

I don't really recall his jokes... but I seem to remember being generally amused, so he can't have been THAT bad.

I didn't object to his shirtlessness, either... why is it a bad thing?

Balde was still the central character... I think they just realised that the franchise was running the risk of losing public interest... I mean, Blade isn't exactly a bundle of laughs.

Personally, I enjoyed the dynamic involving more characters... and, when you think about it, Blade: Trinity 'focused' on less characters than Blade 2 did...

I see what you are tryin to say but unfortunately it didn't turn out that way, for me at least. Blade movies aren't supposed to be funny. They're supposed to be dark, gritty, gorey, and horribly violent in martial arts coreography. This movie in a way seemed a bit emasculated. Compare the fighting scenes from this to the first one. I mean in the first one Blade was ripping out adams apples and throwing them in people's faces. None of that was present in this movie, and what the FUCK was up with Dracula and why did he look like a porn star? He is the most lame ass villan EVER.

Trying to stay true to the Blade motif, maybe the film should have avoided straying into more amusing territory... but then, movies are ALSO about making money... and I suspect making Blade a little more audience-friendly may have figured into the calculations a little.

I applauded the return to more 'real' combat, after the horrible CGI orgy that was the bulk of the fighting in B:2... and think that, in a lot of ways, they actually 'upped' some of the onscreen violence. Some of the vampire deaths were the best in the franchise so far... although the 'virus' death stuff at the end was a little weak.

I was very wary when I first found out that Dracula was going to be in the film... considering what COULD have happened, I don't think the Dracula they ended up with was that bad. It could have been much worse. But, you are right... somehow, Dracula on-screen is the least of the three protagonists that Blade has faced so far.

Plan 9 From Outer Space.

Everyone that knows about movies agrees that this one is the worst in the world period.


"Often billed as the worst movie ever made, this is a masterpiece of Ed Wood's making. Bela Lugosi was cast in the role of "Ghoul Man" but passed away before filming really started. So what happens? The producer's wife's chiropractor (Mr. Reynold's was the executive producer) takes over as "Ghoul Man" and holds his cape in front of his face THE ENTIRE MOVIE. Add to this numerous plot inconsistencies, horrid acting, and masses of stock footage - some of which we see several times and you have a terrible but funny movie. A highly advanced alien culture is determined to destroy Earth before our scientists discover a bomb which will explode sunlight, the description Eros gives of this is quite funny. In order to destroy our world, of several billion people, they raise three zombies from the dead."

Jimmy Neutron. I don't hate kids movies in general, but my sister drug me to this one, and it so painfully cheesy that I almost walked out. This movie is probably why so many people hate preteen kids.

Raise Your Voice. Terrible plot and acting. Hillary Duff can't sing, despite what the cool kids think. There were so many obvious plot holes in this that I was surprised someone didn't step in during production and go "Wait, this is wrong.". It's full of ridiculous themes, like a mime with sparklers coming out of nowhere to add effects to a scene where everyone sings on the street, and Hillary's character's irrational fear of bright lights and guilt about her brothers death. I am disowning my sister for making me watch this.

As a writer/director and an A-level film student, I pride myself on my ability to pick up good films and avoid the dreck, but I hold distinct memories of my younger, more foolish years when I would pick titles out at random purely based on the stupidty of the covers, here is a short list of the ten worst.

10) "They Saved Hitler's Brain!" - A terrible movie whose title is the only decent thing about it. They might have called this "They Changed Casts Halfway Through!" for a more accurate description.

9) "The Dead Hate the Living" - Absolutely horrific and not in a good way. The pinnacle of the bad zombie movie, not even remotely funny, scary or entertaining, just painful.

8) "Blood Surf" - Ever wondered what a mind-shatteringly awful film would be like if it relied on National Geographic stock footage for it's "monsters"? Wonder no more!

7) "Ilsa - She Wolf of the SS: Part One" - I couldn't even watch the second part. It never struck me how low humanity could sink until I witnessed this abomination. Lets just say, this is an immensely shitty soft-core porn film, set in A CONCENTRATION CAMP!!! Oh the hilarity as those Nazis shoot, rape, torture and defacate on those silly emaciated Jews.

6) "Terror Toons" - Shockingly awful. It involves a terribly animated cartoon scientist coming to life and killing people with magic powers. If you think this sounds fun, then just wait till you watch it, then renounce your faith in God and tear out your eyes as penance for doubting me.

5) "Reptilicus" - A giant, incredibly poorly done monster attacks Denmark. That's all I have to say about that.

4) "Nukie" - Awful. Just awful. No, seriously, this is absolutely horrible. A holocaust of a film which attempts to rip off E.T., but instead succeeds in creating the most god-damn annoying "aliens" this side of Plan 9. It made no sense on any level. NO SENSE I TELL YOU!!

3) "Troll 2" - I haven't seen the other "troll" films, but if they're anything like this one, I really do not want to. In fact, if I were to choose between being burned alive in acid and watching this tragic waste of film stock again, I'd be happily jumping into the sulphuric and laughing as it dissolved my flesh, content with the fact I would soon no longer exist, and thus no longer remember this hideous thing.

2) "Feeders 2" - The Polonia Brothers are legends for generating more shite per frame than any other director alive today. I had actually read a review on somethingawful.com before checking this one out, it sounded hilarious. I was wrong. Disturbingly wrong. Santa defeats the aliens with a plastic ray-fun, my soul dies a thousand deaths.

1) "The Star Wars Holiday Special" - This doesn't really count as a film, but it deserved to be put at the number one of any worst list. If you think the prequels were bad, see what happens when George Lucas whores himself out to CBS for a stack of cash. The term "raped my childhood" doesn't even come close to expressing my horror at watching this. I could literally feel my brain attempting to commit suicide and tears welled up in my eyes several times. For the entirety of this unbelievable catastrophe of a feature, I was sitting in numb shock, muttering "no. oh dear god no." Even if you don't heed any of my other advice, PLEASE NEVER WATCH THIS! NEVER!

I'd have to say out of movies I've actually seen (I've never seen Plan 9) that Charlie's Angels 1 (and silly me, I went back for MORE punishment) and 2 were HORRIBLE. Stupid plot, unnecessary characters, pointless scenes...also they killed off the only good character (Crispin Glover) in the second one.
I think I was near to tearing out my hair while watching Event Horizon (Sam! What were you thinking?)
My husband and I are fans of stupid, but funny movies (Roadtrip, Bubbleboy) and I thought Dude, Where's My Car was going to fit into that category, but it was just terrible.
Also, The Rundown. The Rock and Seann William Scott in South America. Being attacked by a baboon. A BABOON people! There are no baboons in South America.

The Day After Tomorrow
not even able to describe accurately in words how horrible it was
so
gah
even close to accurate in any facet to physics, geology, or any other science...
so
bad

note: Team America was intentionally poorly made...part of it's awesome hilarity

Yeah but emmy rossum is majorly hot, so it's not all bad. I bought the DVD soley for that reason. Haha... worst movie ever... hmm... I thought Spice World would be way up there.

Hands down, the worst movie ever is Zardoz (http://www.scifimoviepage.com/zardoz.html) starring Sean Connery.

I would never recommend watching this movie in whole, but I think as a cultural experience everyone should watch the first 15 minutes of it.

The movie has many quotable lines, but my favorite exchange is:

Zardoz: "The gun is good."
Exterminators: "The gun is good."
Zardoz: "The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds, and makes new life, and poisons the earth with a plague of men, as once it was. But the gun shoots death, and purifies the earth of the filth of brutals. Go forth and kill!"

Starship Troopers was really, really bad. And they made a sequel... XXX2 can't be any good, either.

There were multiple layers to starship troopers, for example the society in st is modelled on Sparta (as in ancient Greece).

Oh, I think I can top all those that have gone before with the absolute worst movie ever made:
"Mac and Me"

Funded by McDonalds and Coca Cola (but you wouldn't guess it when watching), this is a lovely little tale about an alien that gets trapped on Earth and can only eat McDs and drink Coke to stay alive. Luckily ( :rolleyes: ) everyone else in the movie appears to be suffering from the same affliction. Lots of eating Big Macs, drinking coke, the family the alien (Mac stands for 'Mysterious Alien Creature'. :rolleyes: ) ends up with talking about how hungry they are and invariably suggesting going to McDs for dinner. And a Coke. The actress who played the mother appears to have gotten confused as to what they meant when they said 'Coke', which is the only highlight of the movie.
I vaguely remember the US govt tries to kill the alien but Ronald McDonald saves him. Some shit like that. The human boy (who's in a wheelchair - thus McDs manages to ridicule the handicapped as well as the retarded - let's face it you'd have to be pretty dim to enjoy this shite) dies but is resurrected by the alien's magic finger (now where have I seen that before...).
If memory serves me correctly, it ends with a big party at McDs with truly awful break-dancing.
There is no redeeming feature about this movie, other than perhaps turning you off ever going back to McDs again. That and it could be a good drinking game - shot for every mention of McDs, glass of beer for every mention of Coke. You'll probably be dead 1/2 way through with alcohol poisoning though.

Here's a full review:
http://www.annarborpaper.com/content/issuev2i8/wmn_v2i8.html

I'm interested (in a morbid "should I smell this 3 week old milk carton I found at the back of the fridge" sort of way) to see:
'Manos' the Hands of Fate
which is listed as the worst movie ever on IMDB. "Mac & Me" comes in at #96. Interestingly, the man who wrote Mac also wrote "Mannequin 2", which comes in at #62. Which makes you wonder why and how the hell was he able to keep selling scripts of movies which were such obvious turkeys.

Hmm, worst film ever.... Well, I saw the blair witch project in a theatre and slept through most of it, I woke up with five minutes left in the film and don't feel I missed anything. Citizen Kane i have not seen for years, so cannot comment on that,2001 a apace travesty was awful, as was the adventures of Pluto Nash, Holy Man might just be the worst I have ever seen, though High Crimes was just as bad, Morgan Freeman could not carry a film in a bucket. tough call between Holy Man,Pluto Nash, and Blair Witch

Hmm...I thought that Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones sucked more awesomely than most films. The way I see it, a movie isn't bad if you laugh at it unintentionally. For example, when I first saw Plan 9 From Outer Space, I laughed so hard I feel out of my chair. I can't laugh at Attack of the Clones.


star wars 3 was a lot better. if you haven't seen it, go see it.

Ed Wood was bad, but was probably intentionally bad, it stars Johnny Depp so take that as you want
If you knew who Ed Wood was, you'd know it was meant to be bad.

As for 'Blair Witch', perhaps only 'Blair Witch 2' could make that tripe look good. Or possibly 'Bogus Witch' and 'Bare Witch' (a porno of all things).

Personally, I thought Starship Troopers was a great movie. It was a fun sci-fi action movie but it also showcased a strange and interesting political system.

As for the question at hand, I would have to say that the worst movie I have ever seen was mission impossible 2. That movie had no redeeming value.

Cage was good enough to win Best Actor

I think that he has a certain way he acts in every movie he's in... same voice inflections, same slang when you know he's not completely sticking to the script.

Face/Off was neat because for a while we got to see Travolta "acting" ("Cliche!") as Cage and Cage acting as Travolta (mostly whispering and looking like he's constipated).

I do not really remember the worst movie I have ever watched completely,

For those of you who keep mentioning Ed Wood's "Plan 9" I ahve to remind you...

That was by far...the BEST one he made.

Ive seen a handful of his films, most of wich you just cant get anymore.
After the "success" of Plan 9, and Bela Legosi's death, Ed Wood pretty much slid farther and farther into alchoholism, and filth.
By the end of his career, he was making little more than Monster titty movies, with the same cast of regulars, Criswell, Vamprella, etc...

These films were often so horrible..even the titties cant make you sit through it.

So..anyone who says that "Plan 9" is the worst flim ever......

...you dont know much about Ed Wood.

Theres worse.

Also, Starship Troopers 1 was a fun movie, but the book is about 8 million times better.

I must be the only person in the world who actually liked A.I.
