I watched HARPER (1966) again last night; it's a PAUL NEWMAN movie that I like.  
Then I thought of THE SILVER CHALICE (1954 ~ PAUL NEWMAN's first movie).  
It's so BAD it is almost fun.  Almost...  :thumbdown: :lookingup:
THE SILVER CHALICE has got to be his WORST movie.  It's his first and worst.

Who else can you think of and what was Their WORST Movie ?  

I think temple of doom was Harrison ford's worst movie.

Bela Lugosi- DEATH KISS (1933)
What a crashing bore that film is!

Ron, dig it... you get me.  I'd expected you to come back with a WORST BELA appearance.  Cool!   :thumbup: :teddyr:

Poor Michael Caine-- so many bad movies-- but it might be a toss-up between THE SWARM and JAWS: THE REVENGE for him.  Hell, a lot of stars (including Richard Chamberlain, Richard Widmark, Katherine Ross, Olivia de Havilland, Lee Grant, Patty Duke, Bradford Dillman, Fred MacMurray, etc.) might list THE SWARM as their worst!

Risible dialogue:

I'd give it to "jaws the revenge".  On dear lord that sucked.

Sean Connery.  I think it had to be Meteor.

I dunno...ZARDOZ is hard to handle...!

http://youtu.be/kbGVIdA3dx0 (http://youtu.be/kbGVIdA3dx0)

A little too much Sean Connery than I care to see...!  :buggedout:

Oh puh LEEEZ! At least Zardoz had some b3wbz in it.  :wink: Meteor had no redeeming traits whatsoever.

Even a harsh critic of zardozadmitted the knowledge transfer scene was good. And the title itself wasa work of genius.

wiZARDofOZ is "pure genuis?  :question:

Sir Christopher Lee had a cameo in a Chinese film about seven vampires with a bunch of Kung Fu in it.
It was downright awful!  He must have needed to pay some bills.

That wasn't Lee. That was John Forbes Robertson-

http://youtu.be/h-JaQFy7Szo (http://youtu.be/h-JaQFy7Szo)

the LEGEND OF THE SEVEN GOLDEN VAMPIRES (1974).
Lee's last Drac film was the SATANIC RITES OF DRACULA (1973)-which was horrible.

I quite liked it myself!

Ohmigod... pee you   :bouncegiggle:

THE SWARM might win, though I'm still inclined towards BEYOND THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE (1979)...
"I don't like to be called 'monkey'!"   :bluesad:

 :bouncegiggle:  I think I agree with Sven... METEOR.   :lookingup:  I don't mind ZARDOZ as so many here do... z'alright.

Apparently you don't know how many films he appeared in... on the cheap... I mean sheesh...

For Klaus Kinski so loved the craft, that he made Quite A FEW!......

Seriously! The critics know him for a bunch of artsy fartsy crap he did over in Europe that nobody's ever heard of, yet the masses know him from a bunch of stinkers he did with Roger Corman.

I liked Meteor... But I also liked Armagedeon, Deep Impact, Asteroid, & The Day the Sky Exploded.

Oh lord, you managed to dig up a real turd. Yeah that one sucked.

Still tho,  jaws the revenge.... Openly admitted great whites were  not tropical water sharks,  had a shark roaring,  shark looked superfake,  just one big mess....

I think I'm gonna hafta go with Nosferatu on this...
It was way too artsy (and a bit pretentious at that), the ending was way too "Depressing '70s Sci-fi", and the giggling guy was annoying.

Guys,  when it come to Christopher lee, I think you're forgetting "howling 2 your sister is a werewolf". Good ghawd that was totally putrid.

"Leonard part 6" is not  only the worst movie bill cosby ever did, it's probably the worst thing he  indisputably ever did.

Jack Nicolas - THE TERROR
Boris Karloiff - THE TERROR

Two great actors, one putrid movie!

You mean jack nicholson?

Yes! But Jack Nicolas was terrible too, you could hardly tell he was in the movie.

And yet it still towers over POLICE ACADEMY: MISSION TO MOSCOW, which he did a decade later... :buggedout:

HIGHLANDER 2 makes ZARDOZ look like ...urm..I don't know what

I might even go DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER. It's so boring, most boring Bond ever,( not including the Daniel Craig ones).

Agree with HIGHLANDER 2 for Connery.

Caught between three for Stallone. Can't make up my mind between Oscar, Stop or my mom will shoot or Judge Dredd. I think I'll go with Dredd though just because I was such a fan of the comics and was so disappointed with that one.

The TERROR is boring and talky, but ISLAND MONSTER (1954) makes that movie look like intense drama!
Any of his Mr.WONG movies are pretty tepid too.

Jack Nicholson- CARNAL KNOWLEDGE (1971)
It also stars Candice Bergen and Art Garfunkel, so expect some big time deep thought babbling.
f**king gawd dam hell. Why?  :question:

I think CARNAL KNOWLEDGE is a kind of special movie.  Depressing.

I have never even heard of this, but it sounds truly abysmal.

Yeah, whe they have to take like 5 minutes to explain a ridiclous plot toi the audience....

Still, seeing connery say "sh-thead" was funny, and it had sean young in it.

RAQUEL WELCH starred in at least 4 or 5 films I like.  
Then there's Myra Breckinridge.  It's kind of fascinating but also sort of ANNOYING.  

Sean Connery in Highlander 2

Nick Swanderson in Bucky Larson

George Clooney, Uma Thurman, Alicia Silverstone, Chris O'Donnell, Arnold Schwarzenegger - Batman & Robin

Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez in Gigli (2003)

I have it on tape, of course... :lookingup:

Anthony Quinn - Ghosts Can't Do It (1989)

Rock Hudson, Mia Farrow, Robert Forster - Avalanche (1978)
Sylvester Stallone, Dolly Parton - Rhinestone (1984)

Ernest Borgnine- Wow.. hard to pick one.  So many bad movies. 
But probably MERLIN'S SHOP OF MYSTICAL WONDERS.
Though I would think DEADLY BLESSING and SUPER FUZZ/SUPER SNOOPER can't be far behind.  CONVOY too.

Kevin Costner - The Postman.

DOC HOLLIDAY for Michael J Fox. I like him, but this film irritated me... BTTF 3 a close 2nd


DEADLY BORING would've been a more apt title.

This thread started with PAUL NEWMAN in THE SILVER CHALICE.  It is terrible.  
But then I saw the JOHN HUSTON directed THE MACINTOSH MAN.  WTF?   :thumbdown: :lookingup: It's TERRIBLE.   :bouncegiggle:

Kurt Russell - Escape from L.A.

Pam Grier - Ghosts of Mars.

Robert DeNiro- BAD GRANDPA (2016)
WTF was he thinking?

Villa Rides (1968)
On the whole, not that bad... I love the part where Charles Bronson says "It works!.... Three more!"

But I gotta say, Yul Brenner has this terribly embarrassed looking expression stuck to his face throughout this entire movie.

John Wayne - The Conquerer.

Amen!

Sir Christopher was in a silly (non Hammer) Vampire film (can't recall the title) where he was ...believe it or not...dull.   Could have been the Spanish actor dubbed over his awesome voice...

Anyway... back on topic:

Kirk Douglas in "The Villian' 

heck, everyone in that movie could have been better performances if they were literal cardboard cutouts of themselves instead.

Schwarzenegger in batman and robin. His dialogue was painfully bad.

Yeah I agree with the sentiment but your language is a little edgy for this place. Maybe how much ass did he he to kiss or who did he have pee tapes off would have been better.

Everyone in that movie was awful.  Every line in that script was painful.  How did it get made? How much ass did Joel Schumacher literally lick to completion to get it green light?

sucks I can't edit the original.

Could it be the Jesús Franco version, by any chance?

There'a a modify tab in the upper right corner of your posts.

With Bill Murray I'm torn between two movies. 

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, which was so dull and unfunny, I couldn't even tell you what happened
or
Lost in Translation, where the whole point of the movie is that nothing does happen. 

I was thinking Franco's Dracula too.
I don't think it's his worse film. I seen far worse by Lee.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110857/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_69 (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110857/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_69)

yes!  that's the one... and should have known that Jess Franco could suck the life out of Christopher Lee

Franco did it to Lee more than once. Check out BLOOD OF FU MANCHU (1968).

I recently watched the MST3K version of Castle of Fu Manchu and couldn't believe how bad that was. Even Lee seemed bored to death in that movie.

Yeah it was the last of the FM  movies and the quality was dropping with almost each film after the first. I could Almost imagine lee rolling his eyes as he  read the dialog from the opening of this movie.

It might be a year or two before I work up the courage to watch another Franco film. I had my fill of them last year.   Most notably is "Orson Wells" Don Quixote.   I'm sure you know the story of this pile of crap right?

I had to search information regarding that movie and found out this:

At one point in the 1960s, Orson Welles planned to end his version by having Don Quixote and Sancho Panza surviving an atomic cataclysm, but the sequence was never shot. As Welles deemed that principal photography was complete by 1969, it is likely that by this stage he had changed his conception of the ending.

God, I hate Orson Welles.

 :buggedout: :bluesad:

I'll second that emotion. Orsen Welles had more talent in his little finger than most most folks got in their whole body.

Donnie Yen: Iron Monkey 2 (1996)

This movie was not a patch on the original Iron Monkey, despite having the same fight choreographer. I don't even know how Donnie can bring himself to be associated with it, it was so awfully made. The original Iron Monkey is a classic of modern kung fu cinema, but this was just... wrong.

Jackie Chan: The Fearless Hyena 2 (1983)

Are we beginning to see a pattern? Using cuts from the original Fearless Hyena movie, Jackie-lookalike stunt doubles and some really bad editing, this movie should never have been completed, let alone released. Purportedly, Jackie tried to stop the movie's release because it was so bad, and much of it wasn't even him.

Pierce Brosnan: The Lawnmower Man (1992)

Actually, I quite like this film, but it's probably one that Pierce wishes never happened. Jeff Fahey plays a mentally challenged gardener who looks like a forerunner of Simple Jack in Tropic Thunder. Neuroscientist and VR researcher Pierce makes Jeff a test subject for his intelligence increasing programs, pumping him with nootropic drugs and stimulating his brain with VR journeys. As it always does, the experiment results in the subject becoming an amoral monster with superpowers.

Based only in name on a Stephen King short story, The Lawnmower Man was made at a time when virtual reality and smart drugs were reaching mainstream awareness. Many of the tropes of sci-fi, virtual reality and transhumanism are present, including uploading consciousness to computers, military black projects, intelligence increase, and more. The roots of such stories can perhaps go back as far as Flower For Algernon, a story which I found deeply sad and tragic when I read it as a child. But The Lawnmower Man takes the theme of intelligence boosting and takes it to the dark side, and in rather embarrassing ways.

Kurl Urban and Dwayne Johnson - Doom

Burt Reynolds - At Long Last Love

Laurence Olivier - Inchon

Sean Connery and Christopher Lambert - Highlander II: The Quickening

Mariah Carey - Glitter

Oh, I really enjoyed Doom!

Highlander II was oddly fun when I was 19. Now I'm almost embarrassed to admit to seeing it.

Garry Busey and Billy Zane: Valley of the wolves.


This movie was a piece of Islamic propaganda made in Turkey that preached anti American and anti semitic propaganda.  It begins with a heavily fictionalized  account of a real incident in which several Turkish soldiers were  detained send released by American forces in Iraq and goes into pure anti america anti Jewish propaganda with Billy Zane an a murderous American officer who delights in murdering Iraqi prisoners and Gary busey as a Jewish doctor that takes organs from healthy young Muslims to sell in new York and tel aviv.

Muslim clerics are portrayed as saving innocent hostages, meting out justice, preventing suicide bombings,  etc.

Yes American forces did terrible things I know, but valley of the wolves is pure propaganda and hate directed at Americans and,  of course,  Jews.


I won't accuse Busey or Zane of treason for making this movie, that's going too far. I will say they appeared in a movie that promoted fear and hate of Americans and jews in the Muslim world and portrayed jews in a horribly stereotypical fashion that was obviously meant to justify fear and hate against them. I have not watched a movie with Zane or Busey since they made this and have no intention of doing so. I do have more appreciation for the scene in predator 2 where the titular creature kills busey's character with an alien batarang.  

.John Agar- ZONTOR: THE THING FROM VENUS (1966), tied with CURSE OF THE SWAMP CREATURE (1966)
.Jayne Mansfield- This is hard (in more ways then one! :tongueout:). I would have to say SINGLE ROOM FURNISHED (1966). An 'arty' film where Jayne doesn't show cleavage, but she does babble on and on and on. I know she had a really high IQ in real life...but she could not act her way out of a paper bag.

Highlander 2

I dunno.  HL2 was an awful mess of a movie that took like 5 minutes to have one character explkainbecause it was so senseless and so was out of step with the original, but connery played a loud,  proud and flamboyant character in it.

In meteor he played a rather dull and boring character in a dull,  cheap movie.

I'm not really sure which is worse.

I bought the VHS copy of the original version of Highlander 2 with Planet Zeist for 50 cents a few years ago - it's one of the holy grails of bad movies in that it's so hard to find I couldn't pass it up

My vote is for every CGI blockbuster made since about 2005.  The problem is that, unlike 'Manos' and other bad classics, they suck so bad they're just no fun.

R. Lee Army said he thought that "endless descent" was his worse movie.

Personally having seen both I'd say "the terror within 2" was worse.

Anyone want to voice their opinion?

Steven Seagal: oh, let me count the movies...

His first five or six movie were great. Exciting, action-driven 80s asskicking fests with a style of fight choreography hitherto unseen in film. Then came the environmental schlockfest of On Deadly Ground (1994), which ends with a multi-minute monologue about the horrors of unchecked environmental abuse. Bad movie, bad execution.

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz2NeCowTwU#)

Seagal redeemed himself with a much more fun Under Siege 2 (1995), Executive Decision and The Glimmer Man (1996), but he couldn't help himself and went back to environmental activism in Fire Down Below.

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBGNKjhqycI#)

Exit Wounds (2001) was fun, but more a vehicle for DMX. Seagal did some action choreography which actually physically challenged him, like HK wirework.

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwSbnpxt58I#)

Then came the abysmal Ticker (2001). I bought the DVD after reading some comments on Amazon which said it was fantastic. These comments were either written by crew members who desperately wanted the movie to sell, or by jokers who just want people to buy awful movies and watch the world burn. Ticker was one of the most poorly edited, badly written and disjointed movies I've seen.

The directors commentary said it was shot in 12 days, which is about the same time it took to shoot a 90s episode of The X-Files. They also said that scenes from another movie were used as B-roll for the siege at the embassy, which explains the very obvious continuity issues of why the exterior of the building looked very different from what the interior suggested. The directors said this was a common practice in Europe, and gave the movie a European feel!!! The scenes with Dennis Hopper were largely shot separately, without any of the other cast present.

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbJlg1HdYZg#)

At some stage, Seagal started making movies where he wasn't even in them half the time. Bulky stunt doubles in body suits abounded, and his dialogue is dubbed by an actor who doesn't even sound like him.

Actually seagal's greatest media abomination is his "novel" the way of the shadow wolves.

Here's a review that's too kind. https://www.cracked.com/blog/i-read-steven-seagalE28099s-insane-novel-so-you-donE28099t-have-to/ (https://www.cracked.com/blog/i-read-steven-seagalE28099s-insane-novel-so-you-donE28099t-have-to/)

TWotSW is horrificaly  bad in  every way.

Imagine the absolutly most extreme raving paranoia of Alex Jones and info wars plus the whole "Obama is the antichrist!!! " hysteria purified and crystallized to a state of absolute purity and concentration. Much like soot can be compressed into a diamond.

Add in heaping helping of racism against Mexicans. (They're all drug gangers!)

Mix in levels of  anti Islamic hatred that even i find inane. (A character literally believes a crucifix affects Muslims like they are suppose to affect vampires. Also characters are sure to dip bullets and knives in pig blood before attacking Muslims.)

For the cherry portray president Obama as an actual agent of the Islamic conspiracy to destroy america.

Now imagine it all written by a talentless hack who Ayn Rhand would sneer at. (Many sentences in the book are followed by a sentence explaining what happened in the prior sentence. Plus the writer just used the term "ghost move" to get characters out  of hopeless situation. Character X seems doomed, but he just does a "ghost move" that saves  him and kills the villain with no explanation what a "ghost move" is.)

Here are actual quotes from the novel. https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/read-the-most-insane-parts-of-seagals-novel-endorsed-by-arpaio-10005023 (https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/read-the-most-insane-parts-of-seagals-novel-endorsed-by-arpaio-10005023)

This novel is worse than any of his movies ever were. I honestly donct recommend you read this boom unless you have some sort of  deep psychological compulsion, an actual need, to utterly hate Steven seagal to the most absolute level possible.

Because that's what most people will do after reading this.

show of hands;  How many people actually saw "Breakfast of Champions"?   Everyone in this movie disavows it much as they can.. for good reason.   Bruce Willis tried to break free of the action hero for a brief stint.  Obviously, it didn't work.

@Svengoolie - The Way Of The Shadow Wolves! The article tells me this is just the kind of bedtime reading I would love... I never knew this existed. How this got past me, I have no idea. A long, wailing scream emanates from me at the keyboard, showing that I'm typing and in anguish. But I bust out a Ghost Move and it's all good.  :teddyr:

Steven Segal is one of Trump's flunkys getting f**ked in the ass by Putin right now.

On a lighter note-

Tor Johnson- the BEAST OF YUCCA FLATS (1961)
Hey-Tor was the co-star with Lugosi in BRIDE OF THE MONSTER (1955);  he was bacon in any movie he was in.
But...ugh...BEAST OF YUCCA FLATS-Golly f**king geebus!


(https://i.imgur.com/qZtRq8g.jpg) (https://lunapic.com)

(of course I have it on tape and watch it all the time anyway..go figure?)

To me the biggest "WTAFF?!?! " in this movie was the way the damn cops got up in the copter and just started shooting at the first stranger they saw. Seriously? 

"Flag on the moon. How did it get there?"  :question:

(https://i.imgur.com/vyDdIpH.jpg) (https://lunapic.com)

Could you please make and post a video of you doing a "ghost move" so we can have some idea WTAFF a "ghost move" is?

I hope no one takes this chance to jump on me for making an "offensive" remark,  but I look at that pic an I just cannot stop hearing All Jolson sing "Maaa Meeee! "

Seriously,  that pic just forces me to hear that.  I can't help it. Does anyone else get that?

"Cook me up some eggs and hammy!"

Emilio Estevez - Freejack.

Bogart- the RETURN OF DR.X- a mediocre horror film where Bogie looks like Karloff in the WALKING DEAD (1936)

I've seen this. You gotta admit bogey for having the balls to go so far out  of his normal character.

At this point in his carrear (1939) Bogie wasn't very well known. He was just another actor under contract at Warner who did what he was told.

Did you ever see the original Dr.  X?  Man that was one offbeat movie. Between the film grain and the strange ,  primitive color process it had an absolute surreal quality to it.

CLIP.

http://youtu.be/OMy65tT4wkQ (http://youtu.be/OMy65tT4wkQ)

Indeed I have. Atwill also did MYSTERY OF THE WAX MUSEUM in the same color 2 tone process the same year (1932) both for Warner.

reading up on this i saw someone had posted (1932" Death Kiss as Lugosi's worst film actually i liked that one but it's not his worst film i dunno what is but that's not it he's done so many bad films that are Painful to watch one is (1941)'s  The Vampire bat i think the name of it is?  that one is really bad (1947)'s Scared to death is also really bad as well

Street Fighter - Jean Claude Van Damme & Raul Julia.

Scarily enough it might be Kylie Minogue's best film.

The film your thinking of from 1941 is the DEVIL BAT. the VAMPIRE BAT is a 1933 film with Lionel Atwill and Dwight Frye.

yes it is actually thank you, see that film is so forgettable i forgot the actual title. if you want another Bad film Mickey Rooney has done quite a few i had to think about the title for a second and one of his worst films is (1976)'s Find The Lady WOW was that thing bad i have that on VHS too and it's got a good cast and honestly Rooney was pretty bad in it too.  you can kind of tell he made it for the money by his performance

The worst part is that every time I try to recall a Raul Julia movie, I can only come up with STREET FIGHTER. I blame Andrew's review.

street fighter is by all means not a great film at all it's one of those films i don't mind watching once in a blue moon. the funniest part of the entire film is the video monitor scene.  that still makes me laugh to this day!  i doubt if it's Raul Julia's worst film my mom for example says his worst film is Kiss Of the Spider woman and she really really hates that film.

KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN is a wonderful film.  Unexpected. 

really i've never met anyone who actually liked it, my mom rented it  years upon years ago when it first hit video so i'm guessing (1987) had high hopes for it and

was mad at how bad it was and to this day she tells me to avoid but i just haven't gotten around to watch it to be honest. now speaking of William Hurt i've tried watching Altered State like a dozen times but for me that movie just plain boring and i lose interest in it each time i watch it or try to anyways

Tom Hanks in Mazes & Monsters. As a D&D player, I hated him for years because of that movie.

Same here!  Welcome aboard!

Nicholas cage Left Behind. A horrible movie in every way, armored skeptic's review was dead on.

Nicholas Cage - Wild at Heart

I could only watch this movie in 5 minute increments.  Took me over a month, but I finished it.  When finished, I returned the VHS copy to my friends...who insisted I keep it. 
The joke was on them when I re purposed it as a Christmas gift later that year.

 

KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN was a breakthrough film in more than one way; perhaps it was the film's strong gay element that your mom hated so much.  WILLIAM HURT won the academy award as best actor for KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN, a remarkable achievement for a straight actor playing a gay character... a character who may also be a pedophile.  RAUL JULIA is superb as the not gay revolutionary, both strong and vulnerable imperfect characters.   A little film with monumental performances.
 :thumbup: Highly recommended. 

I just remembered another role which, to be honest, haven't watched, so I'm just repeating here: Al Pacino in JACK AND JILL.

Is that movie as bad as everyone says? Why I haven't watched it then?

Because it just looks heart rending. Not good in a BAD way or any way. You can point a gun to my head- and yeah- I would watch it. You have a gun to my f**king head!
But otherwise, no. I have NO other reason to watch Adam Sandler in anything for any reason at any time. I have more reasons to commit murder than watch an Adam Sandler movie.
PS- I tried to watch it. I really did. Because my sweetie likes Adam Sandler. So that means I gotta f**king watch it. I couldn't make it.

I don't get no love on Tyler -what the f**ks his name? Big Mama mother f**ker. I can't watch that guy dressed up as an old lady through a whole f**king movie. It gets old within 5 minutes.
BUT! Tiana loves it. :bluesad: Which is sad for me because I do my best to sit and watch it with her-but I never make it.
"Sweetie- I can't watch this- I gotta get out of here!"
To her credit- she never gets mad- she just laughs and says " I was wondering when you were gonna go!"  :thumbup:
I love her- she's a sweetie.

Director's just don't know how to use Adam sander in a movie. Hecs like R. Lee ermy. You out him in a movie, and you kill him.

Stantky kubrick saw that right away. He took one look RLE and said "Oh yeah,  people are gonna love seeing  him die! " and killed him in full metal jacket

Other directors knew people liked seeing RLE dead. So he died in a lot of his movies. Shot by a man he tortured in full metal jacket. Kidnapped,  tied up,  terrorized and finally hanging  himself in Mississippi burning.  Infected by killer mutant fungus in endless descent. Played a sexual sadist murderer in law and order svu and killed by a victim of his.

They need to do the same with Adam sander. Put him in movies and have him killed. The box office would explode with sales.

not only my favourite nic cage movie, but probably one of my top 20 movies of all time...no accounting for taste eh?!

you seriously think it was worse than THE WICKER MAN remake though?

When I first looked at WILD AT HEART I found it upsetting the very beginning was crazy violent.  I have come to appreciate much in that film; it's memorable.  DIANE LADD was awesome. 

^ Dianne Ladd- in fact most of the cast- did GREAT work in that movie.  Laura Dern played her daughter- and Dianne Ladd of course IS her mother! Cage is only a part of it. The whole dam thing is just so f**ked up. I laughed my ass off or was horrified the whole movie. I loved it.

the WICKERMAN
The first film was f**king spooky. The second one...dam. That was one bad idea.  :bluesad:

that remake should've kicked off a worldwide ban on remakes. I mean, I can appreciate it on some kind of badmovie level, but  it still didn't deserve to exist

the beginning is mad... the whole thing is . I'm not even a big nic cage fan in general, but that's one role I couldn't imagine anyone else doing better tbh

Yup.  When he was good, he was great.  He was the guy to go to for weird performances. 

1stly let me say that in when it comes to kiss of the spider woman  that no i really doubt it was the gay element cause when it comes to stuff like that in a tv show or a play/ movie book etc.. it doesn't bother her in fact we have a friend who's gay that's like her adopted son so no i don't think it's that in i think she said she did see the play and liked the play it was just the movie she didn't like. i will sooner or later watch it cause like you said i may like it but it's just i haven't gotten around to it that's all.

and The Wicker Man i have the sequel on dvd as i will buy or watch with Christopher Lee in it  :teddyr: but i have not watched it yet to be fair.  now the remake i haven't watched either to be fair as well, but the Original i have never cared for i don't think it's an awful movie it's an okay film and it does have a creep factor and Christopher Lee is right it's called a horror but it really isn't sure the end of it is really creepy do not get me wrong but it's more so a musical than a horror film.

the music is decent and actually i even have the wooden box dvd set as well that i think someone said to me a few years back that is but impossible to find now  :teddyr: it's got 2 versions of it and i watched the longer cut of it of course. i have watched it a few times to try and get some love out of it but i'm sorry i just can't love that film. though i do love the fact it was written for Lee  :teddyr: not the flm per say but his role

In with you, RC.  Adam Sandler hasn't made a decent movie in a long time and the Big Mama guy is likewise just horrible. 

the last film that looked good and that i loved was Click and that was in (2006) i haven't seen any of his films since than what does that tell you? nd Martin Lawrence you mean? he's always been a favorite of mine since i was a kid going back to his the House party films actually. but you are right he hasn't had a good script in years. i liked the 1st Big Mama film but i have not seen the sequel. i did see the 2nd one i believe and i didn't think it was that great of a film. they did not need to do a 3rd one or a 2nd one for that matter

I like the TYLER PERRY character of Madea... in the first couple of films, she is abusive and horribly hilarious.  The later films are so lame as to not bother with... barely in a later film, Madea sits in a car and waves... I think the makeup took too long to complete...  :lookingup:

I enjoyed the first one well enough. But even Tiana, who is a Tyler Perry fan, got sick of them after #3....
The only real good movies where a guy dressed up as women- I don't mean in drag (like in SOME LIKE IT HOT). I mean plays a woman.

Like this-!
(Dang! The more I watch this movie- the more I like it!)

i can respect your opinion but i cannot stand Tyler Perry and for me i don't think the guy has any talent at all, if you want funny movies where they dress in drag, Some like it hot is prolly the best one, i'm still half asleep to think of others but i think some came out in the 80's. one i have a guilty pleasure of is (1992)'s Lady Bugs with Rodney Dangerfield that's not his best film but it's i think still a pretty good film.

i find the character  Madea really unlikeable an unfunny, now the 1st Big Mama film i loved and thought it was pretty funny, i'm sick to death of it now cause it's way overplayed on tv these days and the sequel is just plain awful. i tried to watch Tyler Perry in Alex Cross and i love James's Patterson's books even though he really only writes only a couple per year the rest are ones he writes  with other authors. i'm not entirely show how much he does write anymore with those books to be fair but the film Alex Cross i still haven't gotten around to watch all of it because Tyler Perry so bad in it.

i'm glad he lost weight for the film i give him props for that. for those who enjoy his films i wish i could be among you but i'm sorry i just can't so to each their own

... is ALASTAIR SIMM in THE BELLES OF ST. TRINIANS ...

i have seen some of that one but not all of it

re: Tyler Perry

he was really good in Gone Girl

honestly i  forgot he was even in that one, i haven't seen that one either i think it is around here somewhere i just dunno what i did with it

I have no love of tyler perry. never watch his stuff, what little i've seen is at best loud and irritating.

there's one film that just popped into my head just reading the title, i dunno if it's been mentioned before but the (1989) film Cutting Class i had wanted to see this for years because of Roddy McDowall and he is good in this in his tiny role that he's in. and Brad Pitt WOW is he awful in this film. it's so forgettable that is all i remember. i watched the i guess you could say Cut version of it since it was on ABC in the middle of the night some years back.

and not much of it was cut i'm sure but it was easily easily one of the worst films i've ever seen in my life. but for those who love it that's fine

Speaking of roddy McDowell, his worst movie was likely "laserblast".

you know i dunno about that he has done a lot of bad films but you are right that one is really awful it's a tie i think on which one is worst  honestly i do think now that i think about it while typing this laserblast is far worst so by all means watch the cut version that's with MSTK3000 though the only saving grace is the FX by David Allen

Kevin Kline, Cry Freedom.

that one i've never heard of to be honest

BETTE DAVIS... it's either BEYOND THE FOREST (1949) BURNT OFFERINGS (1976) or THE WHALES OF AUGUST (1987)... maybe it's PARACHUTE JUMPER (1933) or RETURN FROM WITCH MOUNTAIN (1978) :question:

^ BURNT OFFERINGS?
I love that movie! With Oliver Reed and Karen Black to boot!
Speaking of Jolly Ollie--
DR.HEKYLL AND MR. HYPE (1980)


I've had STD's which were less painful or embarrassing..

If this is her worst I'm scared to watch her best  :buggedout:

I've seen all except for Parachute Jumper. Her lowest rated movie on IMDb is Wicked Stepmother (1989). It is bad but not unwatchable I thought.

I haven't seen it since... well, 1976!  I know the movie (we were just talking about it) but only remember poor BETTE gets to lay around in bed getting sicker and looking it. 

I was really just having fun...

i just watched a really bad one that i had to look up the title of it just now only because it's that forgettable of a film!  it's called "The Truth about Youth' from (1930) it's got Myrna Loy at the start of her career in a small role and she's good in it don't get me wrong and the acting actually is pretty good in it which i can't always say about movies from (1930)  as they normally are actors that are still learning how to talk in well the talkies pretty much.

anyways it was a really awful film and it's not the worst i've ever seen but it's pretty bad i think i gave it a 2/10

Christina Ricci - Speed Racer. A film that seemed designed to cause epileptic fits in sensitive viewers with visuals and bright colours triumphing over plot.

i haven't seen that one but what i saw of it is yeah pretty bad, another one she did was (1998)'s The Oppisite of sex which is spelled wrong sorry about that.

that one is really bad as well
