You can find most of them on my blog:
necrofiles.blogspot.com
Generally, any horror remake goes straight onto the list.-
Is that Necrofiles as in the movie Necrofiles?!
-
-
Candy
Any Ed Wood movie
American Pie-
I love Ed Wood's movies! -
Personally I think that Wood knew his movies were crap, but he made them because he love to try and make movies. You know... all you need is one success.
-
-
I totally agree with you on American Pie.
I think I would have to say Planet Terror. Have you seen it? Absolutely Horrible.-
Really? I liked both American Pie and Planet Terror.
I just watched Planet Terror and Death Proof last night actually. They're both homages to bad 70's horror. Admittedly, I think Quentin Tarantino is a genius and love most of his movies.
American Pie was hilarious. -
I think the reason that I don't like American Pie is because of how many people started using the line "one time in band camp" and "Stiffler's Mom..." (forgive the spelling of Stiffler). Since I didn't see the movie in the theaters the lines got old before I ever had a chance to see it.
-
Ah, I saw both in the theater.
-
Planet Terror is supposed to be terrible. It's a homage to grindhouse cinema. It's actually done very well, right down to the grainy effect and the politically correct characters.
-
Planet Terror and Deathproof were great! -
I'm sorry, but American pie is perhaps the greatest teen/high school/pre-college movie ever created! -
Puh-leeze. Have you seen Heathers? -
@flamingpoodle
Your right about Planet Terror I guess I should accept it for what it is. And I watched it again last night on Netflix and I see that yes it was well done. So I take back my vote as Planet Terror being the worst movie. -
Streaming movies and TV on Netflix is now one of my favorite things to do! Right now, I am catching up on Doctor Who.
-
I heard about a sequel to Planet Terror. Does anyone know anything about this?
-
-
Son of the Mask.-
Agreed.
Hmmm. Worst movies ever.
I would say "Deuce Bigalow" and "Gigli" -
Gawd that was bad. Talk about a movie prostituting itself off the success of it's predecessor.
-
-
Starship Troopers [110% cheese]
When a Man Loves a Woman [excruciating, IMO]-
Aside from the very end of it (pure ricotta), I thought Starship Troopers was watchable.
-
Say it ain't so, Friday.
-
It was only a bad movie because they made the main character a white guy when he was supposed to be, and is in the novel, Filipino!
-
-
Worst films I've ever seen:
Lost in Translation
The Rookie
Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake
Of those, the Rookie is the worst.-
I loved "Lost in Translation." It's actually one of my favorites. Of course, I know a few Sofia Copolla haters.
-
hmm I've never seen Lost in Translation.
But why didn't you like The Rookie? -
I'm a Sofia Coppola lover but after making Virgin Suicides, that's the worst she could do. The only way I can describe it is 102 minutes of sexual tension. Sofia can definitely do better.
I haven't seen Marie Antoinette yet, because I'm a Kirsten Dunst hater, but it looks quite good. -
The Rookie was poorly made, from start to finish. There are shots of the kid hopping up and down that they just cut in randomly. The same shot. In an entirely different context.
-
LIT was good...the Rookie was OK
-
hated marie antoinette
-
I also hated Marie Antoinette. Loved Virgin Suicides.
-
Haven't seen that one so, no comment for now. I really like period pieces though, although this one looks a bit liberal.
-
Agreed Marie Antoinette was a horrible movie and Virgin Suicides wasn't to bad.
-
Marie Antoinette was perhaps the most dull film i have ever sat through. Eat, change, stroll in the garden, rinse and repeat.
The only thing that made it tolerable was the awesome soundtrack -
I totally agree with Lost in Translation. I really don't understand how people can enjoy that movie. I cannot fathom how anyone can sit through it without gouging their eyeballs out!
-
Virgin suicides was good but Lost in translation is the most over rated film in the history of cinema. I was really looking forward to seeing it and five minutes in I was bored to tears and hated both main characters, it was basically an essay on how terrible it is to spoiled and rich.
Both of them just mooned about a five star hotel in one of the world's most exciting cities.
I didn't even bother with Marie Antoinette because I saw the previews and could tell it was an "MTV" version of the story and knew that I couldn't sit through that. -
Oh God! Lost in translation brings back bad memories for me. I actually fell asleep whilst on a date watching it, I didn't see that guy again either! haha. I can just remember waking up and having a weird imprint from his jumper on my face, not a good look. -
Lost in translation wasn't a bad movie. I't not that good, but it's watchable. -
I actually fell asleep whilst on a date watching it, I didn't see that guy again either! haha. I can just remember waking up and having a weird imprint from his jumper on my face.
That sounds like the entire plot of Lost in Translation, except they never date.
-
-
The Village was a piece of crap and pretty much any movie with Jennifer Lopez minus Selena.-
See, I thought most of "The Village" was quite good. The ending wasn't a surprise at all which is what spoiled the movie.
I approached it with the idea that it wasn't about being a horror movie as much as it was about the manipulation using fear as a tool. -
@Stillthinking, I left the theater wanting my money back and thinking that was 2hrs of my life wasted that I will never get back. Of coure The Village wasn't nearly as bad as Wickerman or the Langoliers.
-
OH I hate that movie! I was so disappointed when I went to see it -
I quite liked the Village. The Wickerman with Nicholas Cage is a remake, so I won't even go there.
-
I think The Village was good up until the end of the movie. M. Night Shyamalan is a one hit wonder.
-
I love The Village up to the point where she goes into the woods. I think that M. Night Shyamalan writes really good dialogue, if only he'd stop trying to come up with another 'Sixth Sense' and made a straight drama he'd produce something really exceptional.
-
-
Today's movies that go Bang! Bang! Bang! Explosions! Smashing fists into the viewer's face! Splashing blood! Screaming curses! Rough sex!
Crushing bloods! Bodies flying across the room! Bullet holes exploding! Cars crashing! Buildings crumbling to the street! Lightning bolts!
Ah, god...the list is long. It's the movies being churned out. As long as the bucks come in, the bangs! and bams! will continue.
An ol' coot's view of course. I realize I'm just not with it. (grin)-
So, I'm guessing you haven't watched Sis Boom Bah: The Curse of the Exploding Sheep.
-
-
good luck chuck...saw that last week, what a piece of crap.
-
I guess, like Rivy, I'm also showing my age. Every now and then a good foreign film like "After The Wedding," comes along, but for the most part I find most movies being made now a total waste of my time.
-
To both you and Rivy, there are a lot of independent movies in the US that never receive the box office attention they deserve. Also, "wham, bang and boom" may dominate the summer blockbusters, but there are a lot of very thoughful, beautifully made movies the rest of the year.
Have you seen "Atonement" or "Slumdog Millionaire"? -
@Stillthinking: I have seen some good independent features and there are lots of recent documentaries I've really enjoyed. I actually didn't like Slumdog Millionaire or Atonement. Maybe I'm just getting too damn picky.
-
Oh my,
I actually thought "Atonement" was one of the most stunning and moving films I have ever seen. It's in my top 5 movies of all time and is hands down the best adaptation of a novel I ever saw.
-
-
In English:
Any Police Academy, Halloween, and Friday the 13th film beyond the original.
Ishtar
In Russian:
"Padenie Berlina" ("The Fall of Berlin") - quite simply, the absolute worst film ever made.-
Ishtar. Good choice. That definitely belongs on the top of the list.
-
I didn't like the original Friday the 13th much.
-
-
Showgirls It came out when I was 16, and it was the only movie that has ever made me want to rip my eyeballs out of their sockets.
Jeepers Creapers was pretty bad too. -
I am very excited to watch Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus tonight. It stars the talented Deborah Gibson and Lerenzo Lamas. I will be sorely disapointed if it doesn't fall at least in the top ten of the world's worst movies.
I really hated Weekend at Bernie's Two.-
I think you are going to be sadly disappointed. -
Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus is absolutely hilarious! I loved it!
-
-
I haven't seen it yet but I'm sure Dragonball Evolution will be horrible. And yes I'm an anime nerd so this is a knife in the heart of the franchise.
-
Most any horror remake (specifically those done by Robert Cummings)
Though, Jeepers Creepers tops the personal list.-
And Michael Bay!
Jeepers Creepers was pretty crap. Not a bad idea, just not executed well. -
@flamingpoodle: Jeepers Creepers was executed horribly.
-
Yes, and not executed poorly in the kind of way that I like. You expect a budget that can afford tinfoil and syrup props to cause a poorly executed film and incidental charm. Jeepers Creepers made me think some Hollywood hotshot's cousin farted out a script with some friends who got expelled from college for rolling daddy's Porsche. The Porsche story would've made a better movie.
-
-
Don't even have to think about this one because it is without a doubt Titanic.
-
I remember when that movie came out it was HUGE!!! Some liked it and others hated it. I for one didn't really like it much, but then again it's not really my type of movie.
-
Titantic for sure and Pearl Harbour. -
At least I never watched Pearl Harbor. Titanic was incredibly painful to endure, but at least Leonardo fell down a boat engine.
-
Thankfully I was single when Pearl harbour came out so I didn't have to watch that one.
Hooray for being utterly repellent to women!! -
If only we'd been together, darling, we could have shunned it together. I refuse to see flagrant emotionally-manipulative crap if I can avoid it. Hence, no Pearl Harbor, no Notebook, no pseudo-historic literary slaughters. If I want over-wrought emotions and repressed sex I'll read Anne Rice, thank you.
-
-
Moulin Rouge
Elephant
Pleasantville
The Wrestler
Anything by Sophia Coppola
The Hole-
Pleasantville?!
*reports* -
Moulin Rouge you either love it or hate it.
Pleasantville I am really surprised by.
-
-
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003)-
I never finished that movie.
-
-
'The Car', it's about a black car posessed by the devil. Dumb as hell!-
I've never seen it. Is it like the movie Christine, based off the Stephen King Novel.
Oh and that brings me to to movie IT. Absolutely horrible. -
@chrisco333,
www.imdb.com/title/tt0075809/ -
Hmm that looks really bad. I may just have to rent that on Netflix.
-
-
According to Me, Titanic & Pearl Harbor sucks! -
Pink Flamingo and Natural Born Killers.
-
I watched Natural Born Killers as a kid and I can seriously say that it made me lose a little bit of faith in humanity.
-
-
Oh wait here's more trash...Urban Legends The Final Cut and Don't Mess With the Zohan.
-
Zohan is pure comedy. Seriously, how can you not like it?
-
I LOVED Zohan. And I went in thinking I'd hate it. But Sandler was pretty sexy in that Zohan getup! LOL!
-
The beginning of Zohan was funny but it started to fizzle towards the middle and I couldn't keep watching.
-
-
worst movie of all time.... hitchikers guide to the galaxy. worst. movie. ever.-
no way Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. That is a cult classic. But I guess to each their own.
-
Well, my six-year-old would vehemently disagree but I hated most of it. I think that was inevitable for anyone who's a fan of the books.
-
The movie was bad. The BBC series, made years earlier, was fabulous! -
lol that's a fantastic film
-
i'd never read the books. no idea what it was about. so when i watched it it looked like a fail :S
-
The books are great. If you read the books, you'd know it's not the kind of movie that could be made.
-
-
Life Size-
that was a pretty bad movie. I really don't like Tyra Banks. And this is when Lindsey Lohan wasn't... well like she is now.
-
-
I've seen plenty of bad movies, but the one that comes to mind now is The Blair Witch Project. The ending sucked major b@lls!-
Even worse was the sequel to Blair Witch.
-
-
The River's Edge
Absolutely stunk - I mean the OPENING scene, the little boy is tossing a blonde haired doll into the rushing water under the bridge - YET... By the time the doll hit's the water - it somehow has BLACK hair...
And The whole story line - What? Come on... I could have done a better job making it up in my bathroom.
And BULLY.
Although Bully was interesting in theory - and had some great acting moments - the sex between teenagers was so overdone, I'd though I'd accidentally managed to be watching a porn.
Those movies COULD HAVE BEEN GREAT movies.
But they ended up SUCKING so hard, that I think they should be buried under Angela's Ashes and in the DEEP. -
Night Fall -
johnny english -
-
Zapped is an 80's classic!!!
-
-
The Happening. Worst concept of a movie ever. M. Night Shyamalan is a hack.
-
Bolero--the reviews the day it came out said it was incredibly awful, but my 18 yr. old male mind said "Bo Derek X-rated, how bad could it be?"
I found out how bad... -
"The hours"... longest movie ever... as the title says:) the worst thing is that they got oscars for this...-
oh no, i thought that was great
-
I loved "The Hours." Especially, Virginia Woolf's little speech at the end when she's about to drown herself.
-
well, it looks like it was a "girl" movie then
I didn't see anything that made me sleep so fast a "Hours":)
-
-
SEX DRIVE
-
that movie was hilarious
-
-
*Don't mess with the zohan.
*Lost in translation
*Wuthering Heights (all movies ever made of Wuthering Heights are poor. Bad interpretation of the novel, every single one of them)
*Scream-all of them
*The Notebook (I'm a real romantic and even I wanted to be sick)
*Closer
*Napoleon Dynamite (I just don't get it!)-
Even the Laurence Olivier version? I thought that was great.
-
Napoleon Dynamite was awesome! So incredibly dry and clever.
"Gawd!" -
What's there to get with Napolean Dynamite? Seriously, were you trying to make sense of this movie? Do you try to find a plot in SNL skits? -
I just didn't get why people found it funny, I wasn't searching for some mystical deeper meaning
*emmm, The Laurence Olivier version. I don't know I'm a bit picky with Wuthering Heights because I love it so much. That seemed to be the one my lecturer despised the most (even more than the one where they randomly placed Sinead O'Connor in it) -
The meaning behind Napoleon Dynamite is it doesn't matter how much you suck in life as long as you can dance.
plus Napoleon Dynamite had the greatest pickup line ever "I see your drinking 1% is that because you think your fat" -
I want to kill myself every time napoleon is on tv and I happen to hear it. I watched the movie once. I want to drop kick people who quote it. It's not funny. At all.
-
I didn't think it was funny, either. But then there are people who think Evil Dead isn't a great movie. To each their own.
-
I didn't get Napoleon Dynamite either. I thought it might be the cultural chasm.
-
-
Well, depends very much what you expect from a movie.
So the worst movie one day can be the best one the next day.
Like sex drive for example... -
Quentin Tarrantino is definitely a GENIUS! I like everything that comes outta' his brain! lol
Worst movie ever...is also the best movie ever. The Matrix.
Worst because it is true. Best because it is true.
Lynne-
I'll second you for 'the worst part'; Matrix is the worst!
-
Even worse than the sequel?! I disagree.
-
-
Best movie ever made: Psycho (1960)
Worst movie ever made: Psycho (1998)-
Ha!
(dude, where have you been?!) -
Both good choices
-
-
Legends of the Fall... Brad Pitt with no beard = sane.
Brad Pitt with beard = mad as a hatter.
This was acting.
And every character in the book had his/her own voiceover narration. -
I mentioned the worst movie in my opinion several times. It always keeps coming back to the same movie. I don't think any movie could possibly get any worse.
thenothingreport.blogspot.com/2009/05/memorial-day-2-pets-1-duck.html-
Also, Hard Candy ranks up there too.
-
-
I have just remembered I have to add I robot which was basically a series of commercials interspersed with some crap story about evil robots.
-
Unfaithful...2 hours of build-up to a really stupid ending -
Well, I'm probably a bad judge of films, as I like many of the ones listed here. Deuce Bigalow was awesome! I mean, the hot tub ice cream scene- if you laugh out loud, I think it disqualifies the movie for worst place...
But!
The Breed (terrible),
Be Kind, Rewind (Couldn't finish it, and I usually LOVE Mos Def),
In the Valley of Allah (I think Tommy Lee Jones needed some quick cash)
That Will Ferrell Basketball movie, so bad I can't even remember the name...
Surfer, Dude (I had to sit thru this the other night for hubby. Matt MaConnaughy & Woody Harrelson are getting too old to play that stupid.)
These are just from the last few months. Enjoy -
I think just about any Will Farrell movie could vie for the title. I liked Be Kind, Rewind, though. It took a while to click, but I really enjoyed the last half.
-
I'm sorry, but Old School and Anchorman were both hilarious.
-
I have to agree I just about died during Old School of laughter.
-
-
300 (except for the 5 second scene of 'This is Sparta!!!')-
You are right I haven't seen such blatent right wing propaganda since Leni Riefenstahl put down her camera.
Hated every Nazi minute of it, it was like watching Dick Cheney's wet dream. -
I thought 300 was visually STUNNING!
-
-
Last night we watched The Air I Breathe. Great cast, the movie was so bad it was painful sitting through it. I had to click my TiVo a few times to see if it was almost over
-
now...dragon ball the movie is very worst i think... X( -
consider me... My fav movie: 50 first dates, freaky friday
DONE-
Hmm another Lindsay Lohan Movie made this list...
-
-
The worst CRAP movie of all time has to be ‘Star Wars Episode I -The Phantom Menace’. It was horrible on so many level its incredible. It was about the politics…pretend politics. Real life politics is boring enough, but make-believe politics had me rolling my eyes. The kid actor who played baby Vader was awful. And it introduced to the world…Jar Jar Binks! That shuffling parody of Jamaicans. Actually, most of the aliens were racist stereotypes. What a god-awful movie.-
You'll love this clip:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=0syR0FmwRZw
(there's the longer version of it on the right)
-
-
a very bad movie
Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus -
Friday13, I checked out the Youtube parody and they are good satirists. I never heard of
French and Saunders before…they have funny accents! They sound very…foreign. French perhaps?-
British, actually.
I think they're brilliant!
-
-
British? Can't be? They are French and Saunders. Ok, maybe Saunders is British, but French? What Englishman would be named French? Impossible! French is only pretending to be English.
BTY, which one is French and which is Saunders?-
French is Queen Aminana.
-
-
'Meet the Spartans' is definitely the worst movie that I have seen in recent memory. -
Friday13, French and Saunders are brilliant. I checked out some of their other videos. I like the British sense of humor. They know their popular culture!
-
They sure do!
-
-
Batman & Robin. Thanks for the cheese, Joel Schumacher.
-
Spiderman 3 was worse!
-
That would be going too far. I haven't watched it yet, but it can't have been as terrible as that Batrocity.
-
-
CRAP movies nearly equal to the Phantom Menace. The Matrix sequels. Matrix Reloaded and Revolutions. They don’t rise to the awfulness of Menace, but they are just huge disappointments. The original Matrix movie was such a cool film…new and interesting. The follow-up? I could have written a better sequel. Anyone could have. Why did the Wachoswki brothers turn gold into crap? I think they were one hit wonders. Got lucky once, next thing they are making Speed Racer.
-
Things went well for them, doing the V for Vendetta screenplay.
-
-
I don't know why did I watched yesterday (even if I had nothing else to do) 'Prelude To A Kiss'.. Oh God, one of the shittiest films, couldn't watch till the end! Now I think, Kareena's 'overacting' in 'Jab We Met' was better!
-
IMO Eyes Wide Shut is one of the worst films ever made. -
Casanova starring Heath Ledger.
I couldn't watch it all the way through, which is quite unusual for me.
Terrible accents and boring plot. -
unbreakable and money train
-
-
this thread is supposed to be about the "worst movies of all time" .. not the "worst spammer of all time"
// all posts by you have been reported where you have spammed these threads //
-
-
the Mask 2
not Jim Carey so its ugly.. and its the worst -
I need more input. I am trying to write a blog post off of all this information for my blog and would like to keep collecting data until monday Jun1
-
dragon ball evolution -
I have the problem that I actually love bad films! I find poor makeup and bad sets and hammy acting really funny! But then there are bad films...and BAD films...worst film I've ever seen in my life was 'Watchmen', closely followed by 'The Reader'...I'm never going to the cinema again...
-
You know I also enjoy a "bad" film every now and then. It's sometimes fun to watch a low budget movie or one with bad acting or a cheesy plot.
-
I have to admit, The Reader was not good. I'm disappointed that Kate won an Oscar for that instead of Revolutionary Road.
-
-
I liked Godzilla movies, the old ones with the guy in the rubber suit kicking around toy tanks. To the average citizen, they are crap movies. But I think they are charming. Same with the sci-fi B-movies from the 50s. One person’s crap movie is another’s guilty treasure!
-
Here's a few bad movies that come to mind. The first five for flat out terrible scripts since the acting talent was certainly available:
The Happening - by M.Night Shyamalan
Tropic Thunder
Wobegan Days
Melinda & Melinda - by Woody Allen
The Reader
Terminator 3 - no script, no acting talent...period.
Adam Sandler's Anger Management and Bedtime Stories (Stuck on a plane watching these two losers)-
The title isn't Wobegan Days. It's A Prairie Home Companion
-
-
pirahna.
bloody awful. About genetically engineered pihrana, that are able to go in saltwater. So theyre racing these pirahna down the river to try to stop them.
the pirahnas were like cut out cardboard sillouetes, and this dramatic music came on whenever they played.
Then there was this claymation pirahna with legs.
lol -
Honey- Dance Movie with Jesica Alba, the dancing wasn't even that great
New York Minute- an Olsen twin driven venture, need i say more -
In my opinion it got to be "dumb and dumber" hands down -
Watched Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare again recently, hoo boy that is B-A-D! Also, the Prom Night remake is one of the worst films I've seen in years. -
I'm not sure if ppl will get mad at me by saying this, but I really didn't get "Burn after Reading".... I thought I totally wasted my time watching that... -
I don't know, I only watch good movies. -
Plan 9 Form Outer Space....Ed Woods Classic with Bela Lugosi who died during the filming and replaced by an actor who covered his face and was a foot taller!-
Great film
-
-
i also love very much Ed wood's movies
-
There's a channel in the country where I live which is just into that; broadcasting the worst movies of all time. -
push -
The worst movies of all time make appearances on my blog quite often...recently, I put up a handful of trailers and clips for some of the best of the worst Turkish made films that are just rip-offs of American movies. Good stuff.
One film trumps them all for me, and while I have a lot of love and respect for the awfulness of Plan 9, my pick for worst movie has to go to Troll 2! Which I actually just posted about at my blog! -
"Monster A Go-Go." I swear to you, this is THE worst movie of all time, hands down. Not just a bad "plot" (if one can even call it that,) but because of EVERYTHING, from sound to cinematography to acting...absolutely everything. Bad, bad, BAD! -
There are a lot of bad movies that I like just because they are bad, like Gymkata and Hawk the Slayer and Poison Ivy. And then there are movies that are just so bad, they completely repulse me. I think perhaps the WORST movie I ever watched was actually one in which the great Robert De Niro appeared: Godsend. It started with an interesting premise concerning the topic of human cloning, but from there it just turned into about the most awful movie I've ever watched. Pathetic stuff, as I recall. -
A Filipino movie called "Tamis Ng Unang Halik" (The sweetness of first kiss). It's a total ewww. There's this scene where the main character's head stretches up to the window(she gets her magical powers from her fairy godmother) and gets a peak of the guy she fancies changing into his underwear. Horrible. The special effects make her stretched neck resembles that of a long potato. -
gigli. by far.
and my mom and i accidentally saw "post-grad" with alexis bledel a couple weekends ago. we thought it was something else. terrible, terrible movie.
