Doesn't need to be a movie you've seen. Not one that's particularly poorly received, just one everybody forgot about.
A film you have to REALLY search your brain for to even recall.

Snow White and the Huntsman comes to mind.

HUDSON HAWK (1991)

I would define that as the kind of film that, regardless whether you loved it or hated it, cannot be unseen once seen.  It's kinda unique? but anyway....

NIGHTWATCH (1973) with Elizabeth Taylor.
I saw it at the Strand on a double bill with some other movie I can barely recall- NIGHT OF THE HAWK?
No...Night of the Eagle? No...hawk, eagle...ahh, geez... :bluesad:
And that was the more enjoyable film!
I DO remember that the kids at the matinee got bored and we ended up just throwing popcorn at each other from the balcony.
EDIT- SHADOW OF THE HAWK (1976)! Why a movie 3 years older played...well...it's a small town joint. They played KING KONG ESCAPES in 1972!

This is not the thing us 13 year olds wanted to see. We wanted monsters or blood.

EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES (2010) with Harrison Ford and Brendan Fraser - for some reason, I saw this in the theater. It was pretty ordinary.

I suspect you're right.  I never saw it!  Nonetheless I forgot that movie existed except the occasional swipe I'd read.  I was recently reminded of HUDSON HAWK looking at SISKEL & EBERT discuss the worst movies of 1991.

Toys (1992) with Robin Williams

There are a handful of movies that gave me an actual, physical headache when I watched them. This is one.
