Subject: What is the worst movie you've ever seen

Written By: greenjello74 on 08/03/08 at 2:15 pm

I thought it might be interesting to see what everyone thinks is the worst movie  or two they've ever seen.

For me it is a toss up between Freddie got Fingered or Ringmaster 8-P

Please include The Exorcist 2 too.

In the theatre: Larry, Health Inspector

At home: It would be a toss-up between Transformers, which I stopped watching about an hour an a half in, or some flick I caught on Lifetime about this troubled teen girl who starts self-mutilating. That movie was like 3.5 hours long and had the crappiest ending I've ever seen in a film. If anyone knows the film I'm talking about by name, please let me know.

I agree wholeheartedly. I was dissapointed that the 'film' was exported with a need for every British stereotype in place.  ::)

Rowan Atkinson hasn't done anything good since Blackadder (and that includes the overated mediocrity that is Mr Bean and it was the genius characterisation of Inspector Derek Grim that made me watch 'The Thin Blue Line').

One of the worst movies ever, either the TV or the cinema version, is called "Mitchell."  I think it orignally came out in 1975, but it was a big hit on MST3K.  It stars Joe Don Baker as a Schlitz-drinking cop named Mitchell and Linda Evans as his pot-smoking girlfriend.  There's some lame-ass spy intrigue plot in there and the acting and dialog all appear to be only-takes!
:D

"Red Zone Cuba" was completely terrible, but it contains one of my favorite quotes:

"All the way to hell, with a penny and a broken cigarette!"

There's also "The Blue Lagoon" (Brooke Shields, Christopher Atkins, 1981)

On my still-to-see list: "Che!" Starring Omar Sharif!

A real bad movie simply because of the plot is Top Gun. Here is a guy who, through most of
the movie is an arrogant piece of crap with a chip on his shoulder and something to prove and
all the other pilots hate him. At the end of the movie, he talks to his dead friend, becomes the
best wing man ever, everyone thinks of him as a hero and is now loved by all.

Pretentious! Boring! Nobody who likes this movie can even tell you what this movie is about because it's not really about anything.

Kind of like Xanadu, just bucks-o-tears boring, boring, boring!
 

Then like in high school all the girls I wanted to go out with loved the film "A Room with a View."

Oh, it wasn't s'posed to be comfortable.

Cruise and Kidman did a good job; the perfect pair for the naivete of the characters.

Plus the soundtrack featured music by Gyorgy Ligeti.  And...in that really creepy "Masked Ball" scene there's the piece by British composer Jocelyn Pook called "Masked Ball" (based on an earlier piece called "Backwards Priest") which featured recordings played backwards of two Eastern Orthodox priests, Romanians I think, celebrating mass.

Peter Godwin (of "Images of Heaven" fame) is credited as being in among the masked ball procession, but I can't tell which one because they're, well, masked!

There was a movie starring Jennifer Beals, I don't remember the name of it, it features one of my all time favorite worst movie concepts. 

Jennifer Beals' character was trying to covey just how poor her family was growing up and she said she had to go from room to room carrying a light bulb if she wanted light in the other room because the family could only afford that one bulb.  ::)

I would say "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III". It was the first movie that I can recall wanting to see so bad when it came out around 1992 or '93 that I literally begged my parents to take me to see it.

It turned out to be nothing more than a waste of time and my parents money, and I was so disappointed I didn't go back to the theater to see a movie for 3 or 4 more years.

"Howard the Duck" somebody mentioned above.  I really did see this in the theater when it came out.  It has a bunch of funny bits in it.  However, HTD was just a character that flopped.  They finished the project in spite of themselves! 

"Reds" (1981) is truly awful.  I don't care what anybody says.  It had all the elements of a great film but didn't assemble them!  Or maybe frikkin' Warren Beatty doesn't really dig a cat like John Reed, though he may want to."
::)

"Waterworld" (1996) isn't even fun to watch in a campy sort of way, like "Mad Max"!  I assumed for some reason it was going to be based on JG Ballard's "The Drowned World" novel, so I was a little baffled.  Kevin Costner should stick to acting.

The British film "Threads," which came out about the same time, is much more hard-hitting. 

The ridiculous thing I remember is the schools warning the kids watching "The Day After" might be very traumatizing.  That was about the best promo scheme to date.  Rod Serling already worked with most of the scenarios in the film 20+ years earlier.  They pointed too rosy a picture of life after the atomic wars.  I new this when I was a kid too.  The filmmakers even put an epilog notice stating just this.

Well, it's probably still better than ("T)its A Wonderful Life" or "Mr. Fun's Mondo Adventure."
:P

Xanadu, which doesn't qualify due to extreme kitsch factor. 

"The China Syndrome"
"Big Trouble in Little China"
"The High Road to China"
"Shang-Hai Surprise" (Madonna)
"Graffiti Bridge" (Prince)

"Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom." 
All action no substance.  The ditzy dame  "Willie Scott" played by Kate Capshaw did a lot of damage to the film.  The IJ character works much better when he's got a leading lady who's smart and shrewd, such as Karen Allen's "Marion Ravenwood" from Raiders.

i had an idea for a new superhero: "Bumblin' Man"! he has a magical ability to actually pratfall his way out of fights by slipping and falling out of the way of incoming kicks and punches and accidentally knocking things over that render criminals unconscious. the "B" and the "M" on his costume would be sorta close to each other but not so close it's obvious.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coleman_Francis

Coleman C. Francis (January 24, 1919 – January 15, 1973) was an American film director and actor. He has become known in recent years for the abysmal production quality of his three self-produced 1960s films. His trademark style includes murky black & white scenes with poor acting, usually in desert locations, a preoccupation with light aircraft and parachuting, and coffee or cigarettes serving as a prop or a center of conversation. The plot often wanders inexplicably, to the point that some critics have suggested it represents an intentional artistic style.

"All the way to hell with a penny and a broken cigarette!"

   Last Crusade is George and Stevie's apology for TOD.  Last Crusade came dangerously close to being a comedy.  I really don't need to see two hours of Indy bickering with his old man.  Yuck...

Prince was overconfident.  Just because he could make great music didn't mean he could make great movies.  Even "Purple Rain" looks totally campy today.  It was a big hit in 1984.  I saw it in the theater then.  The world was crazy 4 Prince that year!
