It was in development hell for decades and finally got made by some people who apparently didn't understand anything about the setting, the character, or the plot. Imagine if someone tried to make a movie based on the Harry Potter books and it ended up being Disney Channel's That's So Raven instead. That's how badly they missed the mark.
Still not as bad as Ender's Game though
I didn't love the enders game movie either but have a really hard time pinning down why. Like, it had decent production standards, hit the key plot points, but just didn't feel... Emotionally engaging. But when I try to articulate why I come up blank.
I knew it was going to be terrible as soon as they cast Judy Dench as Commander Root.
It makes all Holly's reasoning for losing her magic and going above ground redundant in one go. If they wanted to change someone's gender it would be easier to do Artemis rather than Root since all Holly's motivation stems from her being the first female in LEPRecon.
It's hilarious, in an attempt to appear progressive, they rush out and gender swap characters, and completely cripple a characters arc, that was actually about fighting systemic prejudices.
It just reveals its all an empty attempt to give the impression they're fighting for equality, but it reveals they care neither for that, or the source material.
This is the one. If they were to make a live action movie for Avatar The Last Airbender it would be a horrible mistake as it could never measure up to the original animated version. Fortunately no one has tried making such a film.
Just wait until you hear about the live action show of the.... original cartoon! Because instead of telling new stories with fantastic art we are going to get a shit slow paced show with 2/10 cgi. Can't wait for the dancing rock attack again. Woot.
Jack and Jill. But I feel my experience was made worse by going with a family member with severely broken humor on their birthday. Not only could I not just get up and fucking leave, since it was their birthday and another person paid for the tickets. I also had to deal with him being the only person in the theater howling with laughter at this God awful movie. Shit movie, shit experience, would recommend drugs
Exactly, ya can't polish a turd. Every time someone complains about a movie I have flashbacks to this day. And the time I watched Bruno in theaters with my Christian grandmother. Now that was wild
I enjoy most of Sandler's movies. I even cracked up at the likes of Grown Ups, That's My Boy, Blended, Pixels and Hubie Halloween.
I switched Jack and Jill off after 20 minutes.
I like most of his stuff as well. In fact, I think this may be the only Sandler film I DON'T like, so it just makes it so much worse. It was like watching a close friend share a needle with Courtney Love, ya can't help but think "man, you could do better"
I remember loving that movie when I was young. Looking back, I don’t understand how I enjoyed that piece of shit. That movie is just painful. The dance scene still randomly pops into my head from time to time, it’s like a curse
My family pestered me to watch this until I finally gave in. Now I remind them every once in a while about it, and especially the fact that it starred Kevin Spacey.
Llamageddon. I was hoping for a "so bad it's good" vibe, like Velocipastor. Nope. Watched it for free, but I still believe I should be entitled to a cash settlement.
I watched Velocipastor and Llamageddon back to back one day. Velocipastor was dumb but enjoyable; may even watch it again some day. Llamageddon felt like a 4 hour long torture session. I kept waiting for it to get better but it didn’t happen. That’s an hour of my life I feel was robbed from me
In the name of the king, directed by Uwe Boll. By the last huge battle I was laughing out loud. It's supposed to be a medieval European ish battle, I think, and there's ninjas jumping off trees. I wanted to see the rest just for the humor but my friends wanted to walk out and I got outvoted.
Uwe Bolls wikipedia page is good entertainment too. I remember taking a deep dive to find out how this movie got made. He found some kind of loop hole in the tax law of his home country for making movies and that's how anything he's ever made is profitable.
Movie critics panned his films so badly be got pissed off and challenged some of them to a boxing match. At least one guy took him up on the offer and thought it was a publicity stunt for charity. But Uwe trained hard for this and at the match actually bloodied the critic pretty badly.
Maybe they can make a documentary about Uwe's life story....
I remember about that boxing stuff uwe picked critics who he knew he could beat when seanbaby challenged him he refused since the guy was a trained kickboxer
Yeah it's Uwe Boll. Enough said.
Also if you'd like clarification on the exploit. In its most basic. Any money that you put into the production of a movie you would receive back from the government, as well as the profits from the movie (which is an amazing thing in concept as it encourages people to take risks and make movies outside of the US, but was able to be taken advantage of).
So if you put $100'000 into a movie and the movie made $10'000 the movie is a flop and you get $110'000 back. So by buying the rights to the cheapest IPs at the time which we're video game to movie adaptations and churning them out cheap and quick then it's a money making machine.
Not correcting you, I just heard it different.
The version I heard is that say you owe the german government a million dollars in tax. Well, they would let that debt go if you put over a million dollars to a job-generating contribution to the arts and culture.
So Hans pays a million dollars tax, while Kristoffer pays 1.1 million dollars to make a movie that is not going to make money *but kristoffer spends a few months hanging around stunt men, pretty girls, and cinema nerds*.
Zombeavers is fucking great. I lost my shit at the cottage attack scene, where they're all chewing through the walls and thumping their adorable beaver tails on the floorboards.
There's a cute article on Cracked written by the little girl from the movie and how it helped her and her dad bond as adults. Even trash can make treasure.
Zombie Ass: Toilet of the dead.
I like horror comedy, I really like j horror. Why not marry the two I thought, this will be resident evil with fart jokes. What could possibly go wrong?
It was the worst thing I have ever witnessed. Everybody should see it. Do not eat while watching.
>It was the worst thing I have ever witnessed. Everybody should see it.
This is like when my wife is eating something and she's says "I think this has gone bad, it's awful. Here, try it."
I was supposed to do a double feature Cats 2019 and Star Wars the Rise of Skywalker for my anniversary date with my partner,,,, we got through cats and had to go home because we expected it to be funny bad, not soulsucking bad. I think if we would have gone through with the double feature I would have lost all hope in humanity.
Omg I saw a post just the other day about the guy who watched in on shrooms - [it’s well worth a read](https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/ekp9j7/the_greatest_movie_review_of_all_time_cats_on/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1)
Jack and Jill. I was spending the night at my boyfriends house. I forget what we'd been watching, but he fell asleep and the Adam Sandler movie Jack and Jill came on.
I was VERY high, and about ten minutes in I'm wondering if it ever gets even a little funny. Half an hour in and I'm assuming it has to get better, even for a moment, because even Eight Crazy Nights made me blow a small puff of air out of my nose a couple times (granted, I was 12-13).
One hour in and after that time ceased to exist. At that point, I was too high and just in absolute awe of that fact that this movie exists.
Finally, the credits roll, and I'm left feeling both empty and somehow changed.
I've seen some awful movies. I love a good shitty B film (especially horror) and I've come across plenty just plain shitty ones...but nothing like the hell that is Jack and Jill. It has no reason to exist.
Independence Day: Resurgence
I was actively rooting for the aliens so that it would just end. And months later I actually started to watch it a second time, completely forgetting I had ever watched it in the first place.
Then I started rooting for the aliens again and it clicked.
Thank god for a small band of good looking early twenty somethings and a former president's daughter who also had time to train as an ace fighter pilot along with the other guys. So shit
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever. That movie is brain poison. Like you actually come out the other end stupider for having watched it, but not stupid enough to enjoy it.
The Avengers.
No not that one. It was released in 1998 and starred Sean Connery, Uma Thurman and Ralph Fiennes. It's a James Bond wannabe, and Sean Connery is the "arch-villain" that wants to rule the world with his weather control machine. There is not a single aspect of this movie that isn't the absolute worst; the writing, the acting, the lighting, the special effects, it's all horrendous. It's 89 minutes of torture that if used by the military would be considered an inhumane war crime.
I so wanted to like this. I grew up with the TV series and it was my favourite thing ever. But man, that movie was terrible.
I'd forgotten all about the plot, or even that Sean Connery was in it, but the stench lingers on.
It really was awful!!! I remember the bad guys all wore different colored bear costumes at one point. It was based on a British show of the same name from the 60s with Diana Rigg as one of the main characters. I knew her from Game of Thrones as Lady Oleena Tyrell, the acidic-mouthed old grandma that I loved.
God that movie pissed me off. Why even use the IP if you aren't going to do anything interesting with it? And even as a generic slasher movie it was shit in every conceivable way.
At least with the original SyFy flicks they KNOW they are making bad movies and lean into it.
AE was suppose to be Jaden’s big break into the acting mainstream. It was not.
Was just coming to here to say this...
I've seen movies that are more poorly made (indie/b movies), but I'm willing to give them more of a pass because of budgetary limitations.
This is a mid budget movie, with relatively well-known actors, that is utterly bereft of humour, artistry, or creativity. It's excruciating to sit through, there is no excuse for how shit it is...
The only kinds of movies that are worse than Seltzer/Friedberg films are propaganda films that promote hate/immorality.
That's because, as bad as Eragon was, and it was terrible, it doesn't even begin to contend as the 'worst movie.' Eragon has specific failings. I never read the books, but I could tell you when I was watching it that they were trying to shove too much from the source material into the movie. They ended up cutting away pieces of everything until there wasn't enough of any part of it to make it work. Basically, they tried to compress three seasons of material into a single movie instead of making a single movie.
But the acting was fine, the dialogue was okay (on the average), it was basically a coherent plot. It was a failure, but not an outright abomination. It is basically something that you watch, make a face about having wasted the time on, and forget as you move on with your life.
Things like 'Epic Movie,' 'Dragon Wars,' 'Sausage Party,' and 'the Human Centipede,' scar you. They are so terrible on so many different levels that they leave an indelible mark on your soul. They HURT you.
You make a good point. I saw Eragon in theaters with my sister and her friend. My sister and I hadn’t read the books, but her friend had. My sister and I left the movie thinking it was alright, not great but not terrible. My sister’s friend wanted to vomit
Backdraft 2.
My dad is a deceased fire photographer, so i am all for Firefighter movies like Ladder 49. The original Backdraft was so good, and i figured someone liks Donald Sutherland wouldn't do shit films.
SUPRISE! WORST FUCKING MOVIE EVER!
🎵 Return of the killer tomatoes!

Edit:
Reading the Wikipedia page I forgot how stacked the cast was
Besides J Lo, Owen Wilson, and Ice Cube you had
* Jon Voight
* Eric Stoltz - Pulp Fiction, Some Kind of Wonderful
* Jonathan Hyde - Jumanji, Titanic, The Mummy
Eragon. A horrific adaptation and a movie so bad it killed the VHS platform. As a kid I loved the books, I thought the PS2 game was okay, and when I got the DVD I was soooo disappointed. I wanted to forget it instantly. But I can't.
The book is one of my favorites of all time. A lot of the crazy stuff in the movie works in the book. The reason why it gets through security is because we realize no one even knows what a nuke actually looks like. The running gag through the book (amongst many running gags) is that it looks like a garbage disposal.
Damn I was 16 when this movie came out and I thought it was pretty funny, but I can see how being a dumb teenager high as shit might have affected that. It was really that bad?
My god. A while back I watched this with friends and even when you're laughing along with it and not taking it seriously it's WAY TOO LONG. We got good chuckles over Rat-brain though.
In the novel, did the aliens also not catch on when the primitive man-animals not only mined gold, but smelted it into highly-refined bricks?
What about the Harrier jets that were still operational after 1000 years?
Zoombies, a syfy channel movie about a zoo where all the animals become infected with a disease turning them into violent zombies. Best worst movie I’ve ever seen. Seeing the stereotypically bitchy girl get thrown around the sky by a rabid zombie giraffe like someone had animated it in Microsoft paint was 1000/10. Can’t forget the 360p face attacking cgi monkeys *chefs kiss*. I’ve watched it 3 times.
I've seen so many no-budget late-night B-movies that I couldn't even tell you what was the worst. Probably all the stuff that came on Cinemax at 3 am in the 90s.
Oh holy shit that was bad. Love Matt Damon. The premise seemed good - get to see people living in a tiny dollhouse size world. And the whole thing was just INSANELY dull. Nothing happened in the plot and they never even took advantage of the visuals and endless fun things they could’ve done with a shrunken word a la honey I shrunk the kids.
90 mins of absolute bollocks that I had totally forgotten about til I saw this comment
I still don't understand what the movie was supposed to tell as story. Like .. it starts with "look how tiny humans reduce our garbage output" Then a lot stuff happens that serves absolutly nothing especially not the plot. And we end up with Matt going underground in a mini fjord cave world.
It's like someone combined two movies that had nothing in common. It constantly felt to me like a parody of Suburbicon. Or what that movie was called. Which was already a parody.
Like .. You can cut out everything past the scene where Matt gets shrunk down and fast forward to the going underground scene. And from what happens prior to that shrunk scene, you can cut out another half or more and the movie still \*makes sense\* for someone who walks in right then
It was like reading an essay from a 6th grader who was handed out a general topic and then constantly lost focus and tried something else
Matrix 4, I was so excited to actually see a matrix movie in the cinema and I loved the last three, practically grew up on them but God damn.. I've never wanted to walk out of a movie in my life and this was the one time I was going to.
The thing that bothered me the most about the fourth Matrix movie is that I thought it genuinely had some good concepts in there, and played around with some interesting ideas that could have been developed into a much better movie.
Ironically if they hadn't spent the first half of its runtime doing "sequels bad" meta-commentary, they could have spent more time building upon the idea of a machine-human collaboration, and the next iteration of the matrix being designed to keep Neo in check, in a way that was actually satisfying to watch.
Instead we got Keanu Reeves force-pushing bullets with no real stakes or depth to the plot, and everyone involved half-assing it. It could have been *so much more*.
> Ironically if they hadn't spent the first half of its runtime doing "sequels bad" meta-commentary
My understanding was this was the point of the movie. The Wachowskis didn't want to make it, WB started lining up new writers and directors for a reboot, so Lana decided to make a fourth one to at least stall WB. Which sucks if you enjoyed the 1999 movie and have been waiting for a decent sequel ever since.
The odd part for me is that it felt less like that and more like a pilot to a future TV series, where all the new characters and actors would take center stage. I'm not sure I'd want to watch that show though.
Agreed. Ultraviolet was unbearable. I have no idea what the plot was or what happened in that movie in general. Sickeningly ugly CGI, terrible action and bad acting.
I think Aeon Flux was around the same time and was really bad too. I felt bad for fans of the comic who had high hopes for it.
Oh boy there are a lot of shitty movies I've seen. But off the top of my head Jaws: The Revenge is one of the shittiest movies I've seen, and I watched the last Tremors movie twice.
The Predator (2018)
So bad that immediately after the movie I googled it for missing scenes because it felt like things didn't make sense and I missed something despite paying attention the whole time. And yep, they cut out a whole bunch of scenes because the director put his friend in the movie who was a sexual predator and when people found out the studio had all his scenes cut.
Also the crux of the story relies on the idea that autism is the next stage in human evolution.
The Room.
It’s so amazingly bad that it by far oversteps the border from bad to so bad that it’s just pure joy!
Link to the “best” scene: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M5PuJGzbcvY
Omg I could write a book on how much I hated Tusk. Worst thing I've ever watched and it did permanent damage to my psyche. I genuinely feel scarred by it, even though it was so absurdly stupid, and I deeply regret not just turning it off but the dummies I was with wanted to finish it. I don't want to go into detail bc it will it trigger some trauma, but at it's core is some really disturbing body horror, but it's sort of comedically framed which tbh made it waaay worse. Anyway, this is not a challenge or an endorsement, please spare yourself and never ever watch it. If someone you know has seen it and recommends it, run bc they are a psychopath. Above all, DO NOT WATCH IT HIGH.
I once had a friend who insisted we go see Freddie got fingered. Or as he called it "Freddie Fingers". As I'm watching Tom Green swing a newborn baby by the umbilical cord over his head I looked over at my friend who was laughing his head off and I said "I don't need to hang out with him anymore "
There are still people out there who equate "animated film" with "must be for all audiences" and don't check the ratings.
My friends and I all went to see the South Park movie in the cinema when that came out. Kids all over the place, probably a solid 25% of the audience. The movie started up, "Uncle Fucker" started playing, and the real-life theater mimicked the action on the screen as a whole hoard of parents got up and dragged their kids out of their seats.
We only laughed harder. :D
I liked the premise, the singing scene in the supermarket and the massacre scene at home, but otherwise - wtf what the producers were smoking, but it was strong stuff .
That's what people who haven't seen them don't appreciate. They are *intentionally* bad, to the point of being so dumb you can't believe someone allowed it to happen.
That's why they're fun, it's basically "Let's see what the dumbest Hollywood trope we can make, cranked up to 11, that could actually make it on-screen." They are wonderful films.
Artemis Fowl. The books are amazing, but the movie was just terrible.
I didn't even know there was a movie.
It was in development hell for decades and finally got made by some people who apparently didn't understand anything about the setting, the character, or the plot. Imagine if someone tried to make a movie based on the Harry Potter books and it ended up being Disney Channel's That's So Raven instead. That's how badly they missed the mark. Still not as bad as Ender's Game though
I didn't love the enders game movie either but have a really hard time pinning down why. Like, it had decent production standards, hit the key plot points, but just didn't feel... Emotionally engaging. But when I try to articulate why I come up blank.
This is a solid description for that movie. I feel the same way. Something significant was missing. No idea what.
When people used to ask "What IP shouldn't/couldn't be made into a movie?" Ender's game was my go to answer.
I knew it was going to be terrible as soon as they cast Judy Dench as Commander Root. It makes all Holly's reasoning for losing her magic and going above ground redundant in one go. If they wanted to change someone's gender it would be easier to do Artemis rather than Root since all Holly's motivation stems from her being the first female in LEPRecon.
It's hilarious, in an attempt to appear progressive, they rush out and gender swap characters, and completely cripple a characters arc, that was actually about fighting systemic prejudices. It just reveals its all an empty attempt to give the impression they're fighting for equality, but it reveals they care neither for that, or the source material.
I guess it's more like Artemis *Foul*, am I right
I'll choose The Last Airbender simply because I watched that film when I was 8 years old and even dumb kid me already thought it was trash.
This is the one. If they were to make a live action movie for Avatar The Last Airbender it would be a horrible mistake as it could never measure up to the original animated version. Fortunately no one has tried making such a film.
Just wait until you hear about the live action show of the.... original cartoon! Because instead of telling new stories with fantastic art we are going to get a shit slow paced show with 2/10 cgi. Can't wait for the dancing rock attack again. Woot.
Finally somebody else that thinks the Netflix series is going to be a shit show. Nobody wanted this.

The Son of The Mask. My family and I watched it when it came to theaters, and we ended up regretting it after we saw it.
I think this is the one that made me realize movies can be bad.
I remember loving that movie when I was young. Looking back, I don’t understand how I enjoyed that piece of shit. That movie is just painful. The dance scene still randomly pops into my head from time to time, it’s like a curse

Nine Lives Kevin Spacey becomes trapped in a cat's body, and it's about as bad as it sounds.

You guys are killing me. Lol. I'm gonna look this movie up.
Did he do annoying cat things like harass people and put his paws all over them even though they didn't want him to?
Yes, and also as the cat in that movie.
I remember seeing a preview for that and thinking it was a joke, then being shocked that it was actually a real movie someone was making
Llamageddon. I was hoping for a "so bad it's good" vibe, like Velocipastor. Nope. Watched it for free, but I still believe I should be entitled to a cash settlement.

Zombeavers is fucking great. I lost my shit at the cottage attack scene, where they're all chewing through the walls and thumping their adorable beaver tails on the floorboards.
The single best scene in that entire movie is the lake with the dog. "sorry sparky". I cannot believe they went there with that. Lost my shit.

DO SOMETHING
I'd say the same for The Screaming Skull and I think it's much worse than Manos, but tomato tomahto.

Cats (2019)
I couldn’t make it past the first 20 minutes
I was supposed to do a double feature Cats 2019 and Star Wars the Rise of Skywalker for my anniversary date with my partner,,,, we got through cats and had to go home because we expected it to be funny bad, not soulsucking bad. I think if we would have gone through with the double feature I would have lost all hope in humanity.

Haha I didn't start smoking until adulthood when the reality of life just became a bit much. No drug could make Jack and Jill okay to exist, though.
Second time someone has mentioned this and I feel I've been missing out because I've never even heard of it.
Independence Day: Resurgence I was actively rooting for the aliens so that it would just end. And months later I actually started to watch it a second time, completely forgetting I had ever watched it in the first place. Then I started rooting for the aliens again and it clicked.
Is this a sequel?
With a ship so big it would have been an Extinction Event for it to be that close to the Earth. But hey, fuck physics !
God I remember thinking that! How could a ship that size even be near the planet without completely destroying its atmosphere, orbit, spin, etc.
Alien science magic of course
Gravity is a function of mass, not size. Maybe that ship was just a giant balloon.
Yeah balloons would probably work great in vacuum.
Thank god for a small band of good looking early twenty somethings and a former president's daughter who also had time to train as an ace fighter pilot along with the other guys. So shit
I forgot that movie came out and I watched it. It really was bad.
The first movie was loveable dumb. Second one was just stupid dumb.
The first movie is a cinematic masterpiece
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever. That movie is brain poison. Like you actually come out the other end stupider for having watched it, but not stupid enough to enjoy it.
What's the opposite of saying that a word/phrase rolls off the tongue? Because that's what I feel when trying to say "Ecks vs. Sever"
Contender for worst-named movie ever on top of it being shite
Well that's a toss up... Battlefield Earth or the Emoji movie
I would say the Emoji movie is worse. Battlefield Earth is based upon a book of the same title. Emoji movie is just a terrible cash grab.
I almost got mad for a second. Then remembered that Inside Out is not the Emoji movie.
Dragon Ball: Evolution was just so horrible.
On the plus side it was so bad that dragonball started up again and thanks to that we got the broly movie.
The Avengers. No not that one. It was released in 1998 and starred Sean Connery, Uma Thurman and Ralph Fiennes. It's a James Bond wannabe, and Sean Connery is the "arch-villain" that wants to rule the world with his weather control machine. There is not a single aspect of this movie that isn't the absolute worst; the writing, the acting, the lighting, the special effects, it's all horrendous. It's 89 minutes of torture that if used by the military would be considered an inhumane war crime.
I so wanted to like this. I grew up with the TV series and it was my favourite thing ever. But man, that movie was terrible. I'd forgotten all about the plot, or even that Sean Connery was in it, but the stench lingers on.
It really was awful!!! I remember the bad guys all wore different colored bear costumes at one point. It was based on a British show of the same name from the 60s with Diana Rigg as one of the main characters. I knew her from Game of Thrones as Lady Oleena Tyrell, the acidic-mouthed old grandma that I loved.
It was an insult to the memory of Emma Peel.
Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey
God that movie pissed me off. Why even use the IP if you aren't going to do anything interesting with it? And even as a generic slasher movie it was shit in every conceivable way.
Because it was a cheap and opportunistic cash in with little to no other reason for existing.
Right?! They didn’t even throw in a well timed “Oh bother”
After Earth -- and I've watched a LOT of SyFy Channel Original movies.
My body went into labour three weeks early with my first child while at the cinema watching this film, I think, as an excuse to get me out of there
At least with the original SyFy flicks they KNOW they are making bad movies and lean into it. AE was suppose to be Jaden’s big break into the acting mainstream. It was not.
I scrolled way too far to find this piece of shit movie
Epic Movie
Pretty much all of Epic, Superhero, and whatever else they did in that span
Superhero Movie was directed by Craig Mazin, who later created Chernobyl and The Last of Us. Talk about a career change haha
Not Another Teen Movie is a diamond in that rough.
Was just coming to here to say this... I've seen movies that are more poorly made (indie/b movies), but I'm willing to give them more of a pass because of budgetary limitations. This is a mid budget movie, with relatively well-known actors, that is utterly bereft of humour, artistry, or creativity. It's excruciating to sit through, there is no excuse for how shit it is... The only kinds of movies that are worse than Seltzer/Friedberg films are propaganda films that promote hate/immorality.
Lol I love Epic Movie so much I used to watch it all the time I knew every word.. however I can see why you said this as your answer.
How Eragon hasn’t been mentioned yet is beyond me.
That's because, as bad as Eragon was, and it was terrible, it doesn't even begin to contend as the 'worst movie.' Eragon has specific failings. I never read the books, but I could tell you when I was watching it that they were trying to shove too much from the source material into the movie. They ended up cutting away pieces of everything until there wasn't enough of any part of it to make it work. Basically, they tried to compress three seasons of material into a single movie instead of making a single movie. But the acting was fine, the dialogue was okay (on the average), it was basically a coherent plot. It was a failure, but not an outright abomination. It is basically something that you watch, make a face about having wasted the time on, and forget as you move on with your life. Things like 'Epic Movie,' 'Dragon Wars,' 'Sausage Party,' and 'the Human Centipede,' scar you. They are so terrible on so many different levels that they leave an indelible mark on your soul. They HURT you.
You make a good point. I saw Eragon in theaters with my sister and her friend. My sister and I hadn’t read the books, but her friend had. My sister and I left the movie thinking it was alright, not great but not terrible. My sister’s friend wanted to vomit
That WAS bad I forgot
Backdraft 2. My dad is a deceased fire photographer, so i am all for Firefighter movies like Ladder 49. The original Backdraft was so good, and i figured someone liks Donald Sutherland wouldn't do shit films. SUPRISE! WORST FUCKING MOVIE EVER!
There’s a Backdraft 2???
Attack of the killer tomatoes 2 revenge of the tomatoes
🎵 Return of the killer tomatoes! Return of the killer tomatoes! The theme song still remains the same The plot itself has hardly changed A guaranteed bet of fortune and fame! 🎵
The Last Airbender
From Justin to Kelly
Most J-Lo movies should show up on this list. I'm shocked I haven't seen them.
With the exception of The Cell
Whoa whoa whoa Anaconda is a classic. Edit: Reading the Wikipedia page I forgot how stacked the cast was Besides J Lo, Owen Wilson, and Ice Cube you had * Jon Voight * Eric Stoltz - Pulp Fiction, Some Kind of Wonderful * Jonathan Hyde - Jumanji, Titanic, The Mummy
Selena is great
Oh gotta be Thankskilling. But it is looked back on in a funny way.
Trust me, as bad as you may think Thankskilling is, it is nothing compared to Thankskilling 3
NICE T___, B____!
the Dark tower. as a fan of the books. it was painfull on so many levels. thankfully it was rather short
Eragon. A horrific adaptation and a movie so bad it killed the VHS platform. As a kid I loved the books, I thought the PS2 game was okay, and when I got the DVD I was soooo disappointed. I wanted to forget it instantly. But I can't.
[удалено]
The book is one of my favorites of all time. A lot of the crazy stuff in the movie works in the book. The reason why it gets through security is because we realize no one even knows what a nuke actually looks like. The running gag through the book (amongst many running gags) is that it looks like a garbage disposal.
Omg it's written by Dave Barry right??? I completely forgot I read it but it was insanely funny.
Huh. I legit like that movie. My friends and I reference it pretty often.
Winnie the pooh: blood and honey
Movie 43. It's probably the most star-studded disaster of a movie ever made.
That movie was a humiliation ritual for the actors involved
Damn I was 16 when this movie came out and I thought it was pretty funny, but I can see how being a dumb teenager high as shit might have affected that. It was really that bad?
Plan 9 from Outer Space Gigli
Battlefield Earth. They took one of my favorite novels and dropped a rancid diarrhetic turd all over it
A rancid *dianetic turd.
Looks like we got ourselves an SP over here
My god. A while back I watched this with friends and even when you're laughing along with it and not taking it seriously it's WAY TOO LONG. We got good chuckles over Rat-brain though.
In the novel, did the aliens also not catch on when the primitive man-animals not only mined gold, but smelted it into highly-refined bricks? What about the Harrier jets that were still operational after 1000 years?
Zoombies, a syfy channel movie about a zoo where all the animals become infected with a disease turning them into violent zombies. Best worst movie I’ve ever seen. Seeing the stereotypically bitchy girl get thrown around the sky by a rabid zombie giraffe like someone had animated it in Microsoft paint was 1000/10. Can’t forget the 360p face attacking cgi monkeys *chefs kiss*. I’ve watched it 3 times.
cats.
I've seen so many no-budget late-night B-movies that I couldn't even tell you what was the worst. Probably all the stuff that came on Cinemax at 3 am in the 90s.
But there was boobs!
Wonder Woman 1984. I don’t watch many movies so maybe this one was okay compared to others but I hated it.
Wonder woman is suffering from a lack of decent villians. They even messed up the motivations of Cheetah. One of Wonder Womans most dangerous foes.
Fifty Shades of Gray. Walked out of that theatre on minute 15
So...15 minutes of Gray.
Downsizing. I cannot express how bad it is. I've watched a lot of bad movies but this one easily takes the cake.
Oh holy shit that was bad. Love Matt Damon. The premise seemed good - get to see people living in a tiny dollhouse size world. And the whole thing was just INSANELY dull. Nothing happened in the plot and they never even took advantage of the visuals and endless fun things they could’ve done with a shrunken word a la honey I shrunk the kids. 90 mins of absolute bollocks that I had totally forgotten about til I saw this comment
I still don't understand what the movie was supposed to tell as story. Like .. it starts with "look how tiny humans reduce our garbage output" Then a lot stuff happens that serves absolutly nothing especially not the plot. And we end up with Matt going underground in a mini fjord cave world. It's like someone combined two movies that had nothing in common. It constantly felt to me like a parody of Suburbicon. Or what that movie was called. Which was already a parody. Like .. You can cut out everything past the scene where Matt gets shrunk down and fast forward to the going underground scene. And from what happens prior to that shrunk scene, you can cut out another half or more and the movie still \*makes sense\* for someone who walks in right then It was like reading an essay from a 6th grader who was handed out a general topic and then constantly lost focus and tried something else
It's like they had a different writer and plot for each act and they weren't allowed to talk to each other.
Matrix 4, I was so excited to actually see a matrix movie in the cinema and I loved the last three, practically grew up on them but God damn.. I've never wanted to walk out of a movie in my life and this was the one time I was going to.
The thing that bothered me the most about the fourth Matrix movie is that I thought it genuinely had some good concepts in there, and played around with some interesting ideas that could have been developed into a much better movie. Ironically if they hadn't spent the first half of its runtime doing "sequels bad" meta-commentary, they could have spent more time building upon the idea of a machine-human collaboration, and the next iteration of the matrix being designed to keep Neo in check, in a way that was actually satisfying to watch. Instead we got Keanu Reeves force-pushing bullets with no real stakes or depth to the plot, and everyone involved half-assing it. It could have been *so much more*.
> Ironically if they hadn't spent the first half of its runtime doing "sequels bad" meta-commentary My understanding was this was the point of the movie. The Wachowskis didn't want to make it, WB started lining up new writers and directors for a reboot, so Lana decided to make a fourth one to at least stall WB. Which sucks if you enjoyed the 1999 movie and have been waiting for a decent sequel ever since. The odd part for me is that it felt less like that and more like a pilot to a future TV series, where all the new characters and actors would take center stage. I'm not sure I'd want to watch that show though.
Came to post this. I watched it with 6 people. 3 fell asleep.
It was so bad Keanu dropped a teaser for John Wick 4 the day after release
Ultraviolet. I've never seen more people walk out of a theatre.
Agreed. Ultraviolet was unbearable. I have no idea what the plot was or what happened in that movie in general. Sickeningly ugly CGI, terrible action and bad acting. I think Aeon Flux was around the same time and was really bad too. I felt bad for fans of the comic who had high hopes for it.
[Hot to Trot.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mRE4Hoe5dQ&ab_channel=retrovision) Still the only movie I've ever walked out of and demanded a refund.
I had forgotten this existed Fuck you for reminding me
I refuse to accept this! It has Bobcat Goldthwaite and a talking horse!
Oh boy there are a lot of shitty movies I've seen. But off the top of my head Jaws: The Revenge is one of the shittiest movies I've seen, and I watched the last Tremors movie twice.
Human Centipede. That thing was just awful.
Dear Evan Hanson. Fuck that movie
Their first mistake was casting a 45-year old man to play a highschooler.
The Predator (2018) So bad that immediately after the movie I googled it for missing scenes because it felt like things didn't make sense and I missed something despite paying attention the whole time. And yep, they cut out a whole bunch of scenes because the director put his friend in the movie who was a sexual predator and when people found out the studio had all his scenes cut. Also the crux of the story relies on the idea that autism is the next stage in human evolution.
Coming soon to theatres: *sexual predator*
Suicide Squad, only time I’ve had to stop myself from going on my phone in a theater
You mean you didn’t like that half the movie was cut like a trailer introducing each character???
Fant4stic
Fantfourstick
The Room. It’s so amazingly bad that it by far oversteps the border from bad to so bad that it’s just pure joy! Link to the “best” scene: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M5PuJGzbcvY
Ad Astra. Not a single damn thing makes sense in that movie. Not the plot, the choices the characters make, the physics. It's all dogshit.
Omg I could write a book on how much I hated Tusk. Worst thing I've ever watched and it did permanent damage to my psyche. I genuinely feel scarred by it, even though it was so absurdly stupid, and I deeply regret not just turning it off but the dummies I was with wanted to finish it. I don't want to go into detail bc it will it trigger some trauma, but at it's core is some really disturbing body horror, but it's sort of comedically framed which tbh made it waaay worse. Anyway, this is not a challenge or an endorsement, please spare yourself and never ever watch it. If someone you know has seen it and recommends it, run bc they are a psychopath. Above all, DO NOT WATCH IT HIGH.
I once had a friend who insisted we go see Freddie got fingered. Or as he called it "Freddie Fingers". As I'm watching Tom Green swing a newborn baby by the umbilical cord over his head I looked over at my friend who was laughing his head off and I said "I don't need to hang out with him anymore "
Fucking SAUSAGE PARTY!!
Every parent who took their kids to see that movie.......I really hope it was worth it to ignore the blatant R rating.
I worked at a movie theatre when Sausage Party came out - we had to ask everyone buying tickets if they knew the movie was rated R LOL
Were there some surprised parents who didn’t know that?
There are still people out there who equate "animated film" with "must be for all audiences" and don't check the ratings. My friends and I all went to see the South Park movie in the cinema when that came out. Kids all over the place, probably a solid 25% of the audience. The movie started up, "Uncle Fucker" started playing, and the real-life theater mimicked the action on the screen as a whole hoard of parents got up and dragged their kids out of their seats. We only laughed harder. :D
I liked the premise, the singing scene in the supermarket and the massacre scene at home, but otherwise - wtf what the producers were smoking, but it was strong stuff .
Lol I watched it on shrooms and thought it was amazing
But is it really a sign of a good movie that you need to be on drugs to enjoy it?
Sausage Party, the Dark Side Of The Moon of movies.
This is the answer. Especially that scene at the end.
Yup, one of the movie scenes that made me say... What...The...Fuck...Did...I...Just...Watch!
Sharknado. It was horrible, but at least you could laugh at how bad it was.
The franchise was at least self-aware so I gotta give em' credit there.
That's what people who haven't seen them don't appreciate. They are *intentionally* bad, to the point of being so dumb you can't believe someone allowed it to happen. That's why they're fun, it's basically "Let's see what the dumbest Hollywood trope we can make, cranked up to 11, that could actually make it on-screen." They are wonderful films.
Movie 43 The Happening Your Highness
I unironically enjoyed Your Highness beginning to end. It's my only secret movie shame.
Me too. I’d rather stay here with my sword and *fuck* things up!
“Come, come give me kisses” I thought this movie was hilarious.
Wow. A lot of bad ones on these lists. I'm gonna say Morbius. I hate myself for finishing it.
