What are your worst movies?

Out of curiosity, I was wondering what the members here view as the worst films ever made? I don't mean ones that are so bad they are good, I mean ones you get absolutely no enjoyment from.

Anyway, the ones that occurred to me are:

Solaris (US remake).
Demon Cop.
Highlander 2.
The Avengers (the Uma Thurman movie, not the Marvel one).
Cool World (I thought Kim Bassinger was more attractive as a cartoon than in real life).
Raptor Ranch (I just wanted everyone involved in the film to die so it would be over).
Batman Forever.
Batman & Robin.
Aliens Vs Predator 2 (when new characters were introduced I started timing them to see how long they'd be in the movie for before dying).
Into The Woods (I fell asleep watching this in the cinema).

I may add others as I recall them.
Hail to thyself

I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

Highlander 2.


this is firmly in so-bad-it's-good territory for me... some of connery's lines made me spill my tea
Quotethe movie was cringe, corny, cheesy and "what the biscuits" is with this atrocious acting and childish corny thing of a movie???

These are the three movies I've given the lowest possible rating on letterboxd:

War of the Planets (1977)
Monstroid (1980)
The Curse of Bigfoot (1978)

I remember almost nothing about any of them.

If my account went back longer I'd probably have more; I watched a lot of terrible movies in my 20s and 30s.

I "liked" HIGHLANDER 2 as a so-bad-it's-good movie, too.

Just goes to show one man's trash is another man's treasure.

I believe in the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

The Burgomaster

These are some of my most hated mainstream movies (in no particular order):

* DUNE (David Lynch)
* EXORCIST II
* WIRED (the John Belushi bio)
* FEVER PITCH (the 1980s movie with Ryan O'Neal)
* REVOLUTION (with Al Pacino)
* CADDYSHACK II
* ROCKY IV (well, it's a silly-ass movie, but at least it's entertaining)
* HOWARD THE DUCK
* THE SAINT (Val Kilmer)

I'm sure I forgot a few . . .

Here are some that come to mind:

Eraserhead  (one of the few movies I hated enough that I shut it off before it was over)
Slumber Party Massacre
Return of the Living 4 & 5
Day of the Dead 2: Contagium (I can't believe I actually bought this piece of $hit :lookingup:)
Redneck Zombies
Night of the Living Dead: 30th Anniversary Edition (the one where John Russo added a bunch of newly recorded, pointless garbage scenes to the 1968 classic :hatred:)
The Bridges of Madison County (as Charlie said on Two and a Half Men... Even Clint Eastwood doesn't think it's a Clint Eastwood movie)
A Virgin Among The Living Dead (I think I gave up on that one before it was over, too)
The Beguiled (sorry Clint, I hated that one too)
Changeling (snooze fest with Angelina Jolie (wasn't my choice to watch it))
White Hunter Black Heart (another Clint Eastwood movie that few remember a for good reason)
The Sixth Sense
Easy Rider (overrated crap with a WTF ending)

I'm sure there would be lots of others (like the Ghostbusters remake) that would be on the list if I was forced to sit through them.  There is a difference between bad and just plain $hit.

Is it October yet?

Not an exhaustive list. Off the top of my head, only including movies I've seen all the way through:

UFO: Target Earth - I wanted a model space ship, but the aliens in this were energy beings, so there was no model FX.
They aka, Invasion from Inner Earth
End of the World

A few other 70's no-budget sci-fi films where characters walk around for an hour & occasionally say something the director thought was deep. I don't want to try to list them all.

Pokémon 3
Pokémon: Mewtwo Returns - These were written by the series' former head writer, Takeshi Shudo. He was getting tired of the series, & it shows.
Batman & Robin - Some cool FX, but it gave me a headache.
Space Mutiny
Alien 3
Dune
War of the Robots - I liked Cosmos: War of the Planets & Star Odyssey, but this was sloooooooow.

Damn, claws, I had no idea you were into my kind of movies. You seem to favor the really, really bad ones, but you may save those to post here specifically.

That was banned here after one person complained to the censor board.  :buggedout:
