Thanks to everyone who nominated these awful 2007 movies to warn others away!  Now its time to vote on the worst of the worst of 2007. 

Interestingly, THE MIST was nominated both for best and for worst B-movie of 2007.

Of those movies listed, I voted Epic Movie.  Even the trailer was bad.

I may be in the minority but I wasn't disappointed with Halloween.

christ you people thought epic movie was worse than the hitcher? you must have not seen it.

I missed EPIC MOVIE, but I thought THE HITCHER was, well, OK.  And I really enjoyed HALLOWEEN.

halloween apparently has a different cut, which i do want to see but the initial made me want to crucify rob zombie.

     Okay, I didn't see The Hitcher, but I did see Epic Movie --
     How on earth can The Hitcher be even worse than Epic Movie?  Does The Hitcher contain endless, pointless musical rap-parody numbers that go absolutely nowhere at all?
No?  Then it is not possible that The Hitcher is worse --
     I rented Epic Movie looking for some cheap laughs, ala the Scary Movie franchise.  Did nobody involved with Epic Movie once say "Hmmm -- y'know, these musical bits just go on and on and on & . . . well, the humor content in them is sort of gone after the first 10 seconds.  Face it, Eric Idle we ain't!"?  No, apparently no one did. 
     This film was as unfunny and as huge a waste of time as anything bad I've ever seen.  I think I laughed once.  They even had to repeat unfunny jokes that failed the first time:  If one talking beaver joke falls flat, why FIVE talking-beaver references are going to be downright comical!! . . . uh, no . . . they're not.

A karma point for you Peter...

I agree with all you said....the movie was just plain unfunny to the point of being insulting.

Because Epic Movie was basically a stupid minor blockbuster poking stupid fun at a few big recent blockbusters. The Hitcher was a upstart minor blockbuster that actually thought it could be as good as or better than a great old film by making it faster paced and removing most of the smart suspense, replacing them with a few cheap action movie thrills. When I see remakes such as this it becomes very apparent what old fogeys mean when they say young 'uns have no appreciation or respect for what came before them. :lookingup:

No musical numbers, but the execution,acting,situations and dumb f**king character moves are so frustrating and rediculous its takes away any shred of hope for a decent flick. when i saw this it was the day after it came out, i went to an 8:00 showing with my girlfriend and there was 3 people in the theatre besides us that pretty much said "hey pal, this is gonna suck". it was actually kind of nice because i got to vent all of my anger right there and not really p**s anyone off who was enjoying this piece of s**t.

take a gander at this, i point out stuff mabey you might have missed upon viewing  :tongueout:

No, as I said, I didn't actually see either the original The Hitcher nor the remake.  Yours is a fine vitriol-filled review,though --
But, as I noted earlier, no musical numbers.  Bad musical numbers go much further with me in the Pain department than plot-holes and logical flaws.
Sequels and remakes seem to bury the Crapometer needle faster and more completely than stand-alone bad films do, at least on this board.  Also seems linked in the remake dept. to how well one liked the original film.
While I have a slightly different take on this, I do feel your pain.  I recall walking out on "2010", the justly forgotten sequel to the great "2001" & just amazed that anyone thought they could put over a sequel that had none of the grandeur of the original, when the original was all about grandeur.

I'm surprised that The Mist is on this list.  I know it's not for everyone but I liked it...IMO, It's the best Stephen King horror adaptation since The Dead Zone and Pet Sematary.

I'm surprised that THE COMEBACKS isn't on this list. I heard it was horrible. I never bothered to see it because it looked so bad after seeing the first trailer that I knew it'd tank. But this year there was so many bad movies to choose from. The people who made EPIC MOVIE  and THE COMEBACKS both failed to realise they weren't Mel Brooks or in EPIC MOVIEs case Eric Idle.

Anyone who watches anything by the 'scary movie' people, well, you deserve it.

Yes, and I enjoyed every second of it :tongueout: (This is the original Scary Movie I'm talking about of course)

Looks like I was blessed last year. I have heard of about half of the movies and have seen none....
