Oh come on you loved Hot Dog and you know it. :D
JBL 4645 07-06-2007, 08:06 PM I rather enjoined “When Time Ran Out” (1980) with Paul Newman and William Holden who both where in The Towering Inferno (1974).
As for my worst film I love sorry like "Catwoman" (2004), go on lets hear you say I know its on the tip of your tongue.:D
OvenMaster 07-06-2007, 08:16 PM Lots of people hated "Daredevil", but I didn't. Then again, I'm a sucker for comics brought to the screen.

Sandy G 07-06-2007, 08:48 PM "The Evil Dead". Went to see it 'cause it was filmed here in E.Tennessee, ran out of the theater 'cause it was so DREADFUL...

So I can't mention Caddyshack 2?
Darn the luck.
Filmboydoug 07-06-2007, 10:12 PM Magnolia - so bad it made me angry. Still does if I think about it.
The Avengers - most dissapointing
Twilight - possibly the most boring plodding yawn inducing film ever
Northfork - Hey look! Were making art!

As good as the music was, this movie is still destined, I feel, to one day have it's own wing in the Hall Of Suckitude.

jonman 07-07-2007, 08:59 AM On Golden Pond
Andyman 07-07-2007, 09:05 AM FWIW, I had a really hard time with "The Good Shepard" recently; just never drew me in. Kept waiting for something engaging; never happened.
Also, I've always had a hard time with "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". Some folks rave about Lazenby as being true to Flemings Bond, but the direction just seemed too dated, wooden, and stilted to me, as did some of the sets and costumes.
Tom Brennan 07-07-2007, 09:54 AM "Kept waiting for something engaging; never happened."
My thoughts too. I'm willing to give the picture another shot though, I'll try it again.
Sandy G 07-07-2007, 09:57 AM "The legend of Billie Jean"-A great, portentious movie about one young woman's struggle for justice. Or a overblown story about-WTF was it all about, anyway? I remember it was one of those movies HBO got in a rut playing-seemingly EVERY TIME I turned on HBO, there it was. Maybe one reason I DON'T have HBO anymore.

Nothing has changed at HBO. :D Billie Jean AKA "Fair is fair". "We want our 812 dollars back Mr. Piatt!"
Good call on who mentioned Magnolia. Absolutely excruciating.
Sandy G 07-07-2007, 10:22 AM They were either playin' it, or runnin' an ad for it-"We will be INVINCIBLE !!!!" You wonder if the actors who played in turkeys like that get embarrassed by them. Wonder if Elisabeth Berkeley gets tired of people askin' her, "Hey, Nome' ! Know me ? Hahahaha ! Howzit feel to have yr career in the tank, Jessie ?"
rickr15 07-07-2007, 11:50 AM Worst ever is Titanic . Can't say why as some might not have seen it yet.
Second on Gigli.
How is it that Hollywood thinks they can just put a couple of big names on the marquee and people will watch?
No matter how bad it is.
Eric H 07-07-2007, 01:36 PM Yeah, Gigli was AWFUL, one of the few movies I couldn't finish, shut it off after about 20 minutes.
MST3K couldn't save that one. :no:
jonman 07-07-2007, 01:56 PM One I rented recently that really sucked was called either White Trash, or Trailer park Trash and starred that blonde from My Name Is Earl.

Disney's "The Black Hole".

Right here, never seen it, & no plans to.
Spoil away!

Hudson Hawk, 1991
I have been told I am a complete Philistine for not appreciating this one. However, someone I trust greatly (my wife) saw it with me and she too rings in the same way. It is my #1 worst film ever. When I am Supreme Ruler of the Earth I will destroy all copies and expunge any record of it.
Sansui Louie 07-12-2007, 10:18 AM "Ishtar"
"Dirty Dancing"
"Evita"
and anything with Jean Claude Goddamn
Tom Brennan 07-12-2007, 03:57 PM I think that picture where that Jean Claude fella is in the Foreign Legion in Morocco after the Great War was pretty decent: "Legionaire".
Sandy G 07-12-2007, 04:11 PM There was one where Ahhnult played a US Army sergeant-"Come on, guys !! Let's get za Chermennz.." Uhh, yeah, right... If they ever remake Stalag 17, Ahhnult oughta be Der Kommandant...
Hyperion 07-12-2007, 04:14 PM I'll vote for any "Hellboy" movie... (mindless drivel)
Alternatively how does "The Attack of the 50' Woman" grab you??
Tom Brennan 07-12-2007, 04:35 PM If they ever remake Stalag 17, Ahhnult oughta be Der Kommandant...
I loved Otto Preminger in that role. Remember how he buttoned his blouse and put on his boots to take a phone call from a superior? Very German.

Dusty Chalk 07-13-2007, 12:38 AM I've heard bad things about, but never saw:
Gigli
Battleifield Earth
Catwoman ("...let's put it this way: Halle Berry in a skin-tight catsuit couldn't save it...")
Did see, and hated:
Weather Man -- you know it's bad when a sex scene can't save it (the Oktoberfest gal)
Eragon -- coulda been written by a computer, or a committee
Ghost Rider -- ditto
Tom Brennan 07-13-2007, 11:33 AM I liked Battlefield Earth. Yeah, it was stupid but it was fun.
rickr15 07-13-2007, 11:42 AM I have to retract my prior worst movie. I was watching late night cable the other day and came across what has to be the worst movie ever made.
"Cabin Boy" with Cris Elliot.
To F-ing lame for words.
Sndsrtaud 07-13-2007, 02:45 PM The Truman Show, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (or whatever), POTC Part 2 (ain't going to see part 3), Brosnan Bond flicks,
Dusty Chalk 07-13-2007, 06:25 PM Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was excellent! I mean, how many movies are you going to get with Kirsten Dunst jumping up and down on a bed in her skivvies? And that wasn't even the best part...

Pete Deksnis 07-16-2007, 08:51 AM Jailhouse Rock, when was first run.

:music:'Do the clam...Do the clam....':music: :yuck: :puke: :screwy:
slow_jazz 07-16-2007, 09:24 AM I would have to agree with Cabin Boy... Just awful.....
Pete Deksnis 07-16-2007, 10:16 AM Cabin Boy, eh. It's worth a look. Netflix'ed it to the top of my queue.:D
2DualsNotEnough 07-16-2007, 10:46 AM Firewall,with Harrison Ford.
This takes the cake in the "Oh,Come on!" category.Harrison finds his kidnapped family because their dog,who the kidnappers let them take with them to their super secret hideout,had a GPS tracking collar!
I wont even mention trying to kill junior with a cookie,or Harrison the security expert trying to outsmart the badguy by typing way-secret-like while the baddie is nearby.
Oh,and when Harrison finds the dog,its been left on the side of the road,so now hes puzzled:Oh where oh where can the family be????Hey,dude,maybe they are in the lone house at the top of the little dirt road you found the damn dog on?
Ive seen worse films,but very few of them had the talent or the budget on display with this flaming turd.

Chicago....I walked after 40 min. I think
Holst 07-16-2007, 12:22 PM Mission Impossible.
Let's forget that it screwed up the premise of the series and turned it into the Tom Cruise show.
Plot leaks, soooooo many of them.
Breaking into a governemnt installation with GIANT air vent (possible recycled from the series Voyage to the bottom of the Sea) with sensors that can detect a fly, any yet giant rats go running around without a blip. The falls into the computer room and again doesn't set anything off, a man walks in, you can see the room reflection in the room and yet the man looking down, can't see the reflection of Cruise above him.
I haven't seen the movie in years, once was too much, but a scene couldn't go by without finding a plot error.
Dusty Chalk 07-16-2007, 05:25 PM Started watching Gothic Vampires from Hell
(shudders)
Yeezh.
bully 07-16-2007, 07:24 PM LOL y'know there is a weird pleasure in watching a bad movie.
Oddly enough, I haven't even heard of most of the movies mentioned.
arrow 68 07-16-2007, 07:44 PM Worst movies ever made? Just like music, the downward spiral started in the 80's. Now everything is either a Biopic (How Original) or CGI Action that's like watching a video game. Fortunately there are so many great movies just like music to look out for. When the hell are they going to release "The List Of Adrian Messenger"?
metalmando 07-16-2007, 08:49 PM The Adventures of Pluto Nash, Indian Summer, any "return of Brady Bunch" movies.
Pete Deksnis 07-21-2007, 10:56 PM Cabin Boy, I got it, watched it, and I gotta be honest, liked it! There were a couple of good laughs early on.
Yes, it got a bit slow. And I have no idea who the audience was supposed to be (it seemed dated with requisite early 90's cussing; not unlike the 1984 Star Trek IV). But Chris Elliot played an amusing spoiled brat rich-kid dandy character IMO.
MisterFishey 07-31-2007, 10:49 PM Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. Say no more.
markc2 08-02-2007, 08:30 AM Mission Impossible, by the time the movie got going it was too late. We went to a late night show, when we walked out we were all making excuses for it, until Tim, who "snuck"out of the house from his wife to watch it, Just came out and said "That Sucked".
We all kinda sat quiet for a second laughed and agreed. The rants began soon after.:rant:
markc2 08-02-2007, 08:33 AM My personal movie I HATE:gigglemad is "Reno 9-1-1"
mhconley 08-29-2007, 08:49 AM Snakes on a Plane (2006)
This came on HBO last night and I thought I'd check out what all the pre-release Internet buzz was about. This film was so bad at times it was hilarious; unfortunately the laughs were few and far between and interspersed with groans and tedium. It was like watching one of the old Airport disaster flicks with cartoon CGI snakes! I laughed my a$$ off when the first girl was bit right on her breast/nipple. From there it just went downhill. This film is listed as action/adventure/thriller on IMDB but I think the writers may have been trying to write a comedic spoof of those old Airport movies and just completely missed the mark. If they weren't then I don't know what they were thinking - no way anyone involed in making this thing could have taken it seriously. How much did they have to pay Samuel L. Jackson to star in this dog?

Labyrinth
Fletch - from a relatively good book
Burgler - ditto
Rambo - from an exceptionally good book
CannonBall Run - all of them, see 'The Gumball Rally' instead
Meet the Parents
Trainspotting
Ed Wood
Casino Royale - the first one
Lord of the Flies - the book was bad enough
Judge Dredd
Under Siege
I understand that Jean-Claude VanDamme is taking acting lessons - from Steven Seagal
madpioneer 08-29-2007, 10:33 AM I know I am setting myself up for flames but the absolute worst piece of sh*t movie ever forced on the human race is by far:
the 'Rocky Whorer Picture Show'
If you never saw Chris Elliot on David Letterman or saw his short run sitcom 'Get A life' and did not appreciate his ridiculous brand of humor your not going to like 'Cabin Boy'. I like this kind of dumb, stupid humor I guess thats why I appreciate Beavis & Butthead, the Mackenzie Brothers 'Strange Brew', SCTV, Bizarre, etc....
Sandy G 08-29-2007, 11:11 AM That stinkeroo "Waterworld" was way up there on the Gawdawful list, too.. WTF was it all about ? Another Kevin Costner masterbutory piece was that "Postman" movie...To be as good of an actor as he is, sometimes he gets his wires crossed on picking projects...
BurnBabyBurn 08-29-2007, 11:22 AM Mission Impossible II

One of my all-time stinkers is Practical Magic with Nicole (I'm a goddess) Kidman and Sandra Bullock. You would think their looks alone could carry this movie but no. :no: There is nothing redeeming about this movie so don't waste your time watching it.
Whatever1 08-29-2007, 12:14 PM I saw a movie at least 20 years ago... do not know the name but it was a sci-fi about a female alien... it was so bad I blocked it out of my mind all except the ending song which was a blues rendition of "she's not there"
Sandy G 08-29-2007, 12:20 PM ...An' then there was "Zardoz" w/Sean Connery & Charlotte Rampling, a '70s era fair-to-middlin' Hottie, spending most of the movie Emoting at each other whilst basically runnin' around Nekkid... Charlotte was right purty Nekkid, but Sean was an old man, & I don't much fancy lookin' at ol' Nekkid men runnin' around... Or young ones, either, for that matter...<grin>
theophile 08-29-2007, 02:03 PM Regarding Zardoz,I read the book(never saw the movie).
It was disappointing also.
outshined 08-29-2007, 02:46 PM It's difficult to hash about this topic. "One mans poison..."
But... I do think there are truly terrible flicks out there. Some of the movies posted as being bad I agree with. Some, not.
Me, I can't stand, and never watch, any musical.
Might be more fun to list favorite films? (But, then again, it'll be the same thread with a diff name...)

Tom Brennan 08-29-2007, 07:35 PM Sandy---Sean Connery running around in a diaper with a .455 Webley doesn't get you going?
Sandy G 08-29-2007, 08:27 PM Well, uhh, dammittall, Tom, you didn't hafta bring THAT up...<grin> Charlotte was still purtier..The Sean Connery flick that DID get me all misty & in love for him was "The Man Who Would Be King"...ESPECIALLY the next to last scene....The "Minstrel Boy" scene...
Tom Brennan 08-29-2007, 09:58 PM Sandy---My favorite Connery picture is "The Wind and the Lion" by the underappreciated John Milius. And Brian Keith did a wonderful turn as Teddy Roosevelt in the picture.

I can only remember that track being used in "The Long Kiss Goodnight" (Geena Davis, Samuel L Jackson) - which wasn't a bad movie except towards the end.
"Dead Heat" comes to mind for me (Joe Piscopo, Treat Williams). So bad that it was great, I think I watched it once a week for a year. The only movie I know where everyone (and I mean everyone) end up dead. some at the start of the movie but they just keep on trucking.

kichijai 08-29-2007, 11:00 PM OK guys set your DVRs..."The Legend of Billie Jean" is on this Sunday at 10:50 am on Encore. This has to be seen to be believed.
"Throughout it all, she only wants the $608 to fix her brother's scooter, and an apology from Mr. Pyatt. Lloyd helps Billie Jean make a video of her demands, and before she makes the tape she cuts her long, blond hair into a crew cut as a sign of her rebellion. By the end, she sets fire to a carnival, throws the money back into Mr. Pyatt's face, screams "fair is fair" one more time, with the coupe de grace being subjected to Pat Benatar's "Invincible". Grossed all of 3 million dollars."

arrow 68 08-30-2007, 05:18 PM Just about every movie made in the last 10 years is bad. Biopics, and action movies with so much action it's like your watching a video game. I like movies with a story. That translates into mostly pre 1980 film.

Sandy G 08-30-2007, 08:08 PM I thought "NeverEnding Story" was a suckerino, too. It was TOO cute, TOO cloying, Too much too much... It's like the producers sat down & said, "We wanna make a "Cute" movie. Let's figger out what makes a movie "Cute" & then multiply it by a factor of 5." This they did, but IIRC, they were Germans, & as Germans they over-engineered it, und it came out so damn cute you could catch diabetes from watching it, the flick was so sweet & sugary...

Yet it's almost an exact (word-for-word) production of the frist half of the book. And the second movie does the second half - although, funnily enough, with no US backing, as the story was pretty depressing (for every wish made, the hero loses a memory until he has none left).
Cloth Ears 08-30-2007, 08:51 PM I like movies where everyone ends up dead.
In this one, one of the 'buddy' cops dies in about the first 15 minutes, but gets brought back to life (and starts to smell a bit after a while). All the bank robbers are zombies and it's even got Vincent Price and Darren McGavin. Actually, maybe it's not the 'worst' :(.

Amazing EFX, since in '68 they didn't have a tenth of the tricks up their sleeves as they do now...That was the 1st kiddie flick I remember where they mass-merchandised eveything about it...You couldn't turn the TV on that summer that there wasn't some "CCBB" tie in-toys, trinkets, the works. Nice to see Benny Hill & Gert Frobe again...

willhowl 09-03-2007, 01:58 AM Cloth Ears- Your choice of movie (dead cops still running around) I believe "starred" Treat Williams and Joe Piscopo. I think it was titled Dead Heat. Yes, it stank!!! Sampled dialog " you don't smell so good" " well hell- you've only been dead two days-and you ain't so fresh either" Something like that. Kind of a goofy charm to it, though.
Next comment/non-review:
Outshined- "everyone ends up dead"- Got cha covered,bro. Also many other AKers should check this out-It's got music! Well, sort of.The title leaves little to the imagination. Surprise!!! About halfway through, the plot twists into a truly warped direction. Some sick cats were in on this one! However, it's so ridiculous that it stays rather amusing.I guess I'm sick too.
The title is"Hard Rock Zombies". As I said, the first part is "normal" teen drive-in horror flick fare.Lotsa gore, crazed midgets running around, shapely babes, some distant nudity, horrible "music" etc. etc.
Then the plot(yes,I'm being kind) becomes ....well, I just can't say.....
... It must be seen to be believed.Once seen,never forgotten! And you'll want to. Forget,that is. Truly a perverse, demented classic.
I found my copy at BigLots for $2. A pittance for a contender for worst movie ever made.
View at your own risk........willhowl
outshined 09-03-2007, 02:03 PM "Hard Rock Zombies?"
From your plot set-up, it sounds like it has potential! Even bad movies can be fun.
I'll see if its available for rent.

I remember watching "Dead Bang" But I don't remember the movie itself:scratch2:
Gonna hafta watch it again. Its been a while. Sounds a little betta than I thought.
My vote for worst movie? Geez, there are zillions of em. But one I really disliked is "Higher Learning" with Jenny Connelly, Ice Cube and Larry Fishburn.
I know what the plot is, but it's so weak it's pathetic. And what the hell is that goofy accent of Fishburns supposed to be?:scratch2:
Since I like Connelly (what a babe :yes:) I bought it without watching first.

The amazing thing is, the music is worst of all...real crappy jazz!

Sandy G 09-03-2007, 04:35 PM Oh, man...Those ol' Godziller movies were the BEST !!! I loved it when there'd be some character make a l-o-n-g speech, only to have about 3 words in English come out...Or, they'd use Japanese, & try to make 'em LOOK Western, w/eyeshadow...Or when Godzilla would squash a Toyopet Crown...Their cheeziness was a large part of their appeal...
outshined 09-03-2007, 06:45 PM Hey, Outshined- Jennifer C IS a babe. Have you seen her in Dark City? It's a pretty good, DARK sci-fi flick. Not a contender for worst, not great, but pretty darn good flick. Check it out!.......willhowl:thmbsp:
Yeah, I have the DVD.
Dark City is pretty good, and I watch it once in a while. Kiefer Sutherland is a good actor and plays a good role in the flick.
Have you seen Jennifer in Requiem for a Dream? An earlier Connelly film.
If you haven't, you should.
I won't go into details if you haven't seen it, but I think you'll dig it :thmbsp:
kichijai 09-03-2007, 07:40 PM You know I watched Billie Jean the other day and it was not as bad as I remembered. Or was it? I think this shows just how bad movies have gotten in the last 22 years. Billie Jean probably was one of the worst up till '85.
Certainly I could not sit thru Hose of Sand and Fog again. I had rented that only for Connelly. Boy she's really been in some clunkers!

I rather liked "House of Sand and Fog" But, it's all subjective.
The biggest clunker was Higher learning, without a doubt, to me, at least.
I'm sure you've seen "A Beautiful Mind" Now that's a great film. A true story. Won 4 Academy Awards, including Best Picture. I don't give a damn about the "Academy" but it really was a good movie. Check it out if you haven't :thmbsp:
Another good one with Connelly is Waking the Dead, with Billy Crudup. :yes:
kichijai 09-03-2007, 08:02 PM Isn't it amazing what we guys will sit thru just to see hot chicks? I was biting my tongue all the way thru "A Guy Thing" just to see Selma Blair. It was the most desperate piece of crap comedy ever commited to celluloid. I didn't think it was possible to top The Sweetest Thing..
Mr. Lin 09-03-2007, 08:05 PM The recent horror flick "Dead Silence" was pretty terrible. Bloated with cliches and not even slightly scary. I want the hour and a half of my life back!

Yeah, this is part of the problem with junky flicks. Gimme storylines and endings like the ones in "The Sixth Sense", for example.
Problem is, one can basically only be surprised once.
godzilla 09-04-2007, 07:09 PM I won't do the "sit through a shit flick just to see a hot chick!" An old girlfriend of mine would watch 'Charmed' and I would tell her..."I'll watch it if you turn down the sound"...Mmmmmm Alissa Milano!
panhead 11-26-2007, 05:39 AM I nominate Beowolf as the biggest flop of whale dung ever made,i tried several times to watch that terrible movie with no success,i even tried to fall asleep with the movie on but the script was so s#itty every few minutes i'd get pissed off,till i finally turned it off for good.
Crappy script,crappy plot,3rd rate acting & the worst application of 3d i can imagine.
theophile 11-26-2007, 04:35 PM This one's a new release.
I saw a DVD last week(I fast-forwarded it after the first 30 minutes)called "Botched"
It's a complete piece of crap.:thmbsp:
A total waste of time and energy.
You have been warned. :nono:

Im glad Im not alone on this one.What a joke.The animation looks silly,the script is laughable when its supposed to be serious.I give action films a lot of leeway,but even so,this just didnt do it for me.

Out of curiosity, how does the "crappy script" compare to the original millennium old poem that sourced the story? Did they keep to it or branch out horribly, such as with Christopher Lambert's take on Beowulf. I've been tempted to watch this movie, but I tend to avoid CGI movies (and WireFu for related reasons). If it's close to the original poem, then my English literature background will drive me to the theater, if not, then the heck with it.
