It was so weird.

I don't even see why this question is up for debate. It is impossible for any movie you could name to be more abomnible than Battlefield Earth.

Yes I will, if you so desire......

Being John Malkovich was pretty lame...and I like John Cusack movie normally

Cruel Intentions was bad Even if it wasn't a rip off

King Kong- Which one? Or Both?

I assume we're not doing "So bad it's good" movies like Plan 9 From Outer Space or Showgirls. I'll also assume we're skipping movies that never, ever had a chance of being good, like Children of the Corn IV. So that leaves (in approximate order, starting with the worst):

Tarzan (Bo Derek version)
Blair Witch Project
Congo
Lost Highway (I love David Lynch, but this bit)
Wonder Bar (1930's musical featuring a blackface number called "Goin' to Heaven on a Mule," in which Al Jolson dreams of pork chop trees and possum pie groves. Also features dancing watermelon slices and a craps game with St. Peter. Must be seen to be believed.)
Endless Love (edges out Blue Lagoon for the hotly-contested title of Worst Brooke Shields Film -- though I admit I haven't seen Brenda Starr)
Moment by Moment (intergeneration love between John Travolta and Lily Tomlin )
Drop Dead Fred
Rat Race (a hideous ensemble comedy I saw on a plane recently)
Anti-Trust

Being John Malkovich? Pulp Fiction? Election? I can understand "most overrated" or "I couldn't stand it", but worst? I wasn't the biggest Being John Malkovich fan either, but I can see how other people would love it. And you gotta admit: some parts are funny. John Malkovich as a puppeteer? He getting hit by the side of the road by some redneck who calls out his name? "Hey, Malkovich!"

None of those have sunk to the depths of these really, really bad movies: Mannequin, Ghost, Dirty Dancing, Battlefield Earth.

Anyway, my list:

Coast to Coast - Dyan Cannon in a trucker movie. I was 12 or so when I walked out of this movie.

The Boost - James Wood goes on a downward cocaine spiral. Movies where people lose all their money really depress me, especially if they do it of their own vices.

The Hitcher - A painful movie to watch, this had possibly the cruelest death ever filmed.

Rhinestone -

Staying Alive - Truth be told, Laura and I laughed our way one evening through the horribleness that is the sequel to Saturday Night Fever. Cameo alert: Watch John Travolta bump into a furred-up Sylvester Stallone on the streets of NYC!

Stop! Or my Mom will Shoot! -

See? These are bad movies.

Good list, Rufus.

But I'm wondering why so many people hated Blair Witch? I thought it was a hell of a movie.

In a good horror movie, the rush you feel comes from an empathetic fear for the hero, praying s/he can escape and/or vanquish the evil monster.

In Blair Witch, you pray that not only the Witch but all the Unholy Powers of Hell will show up and please, please kill these hideously boring, unbearably whiny protagonists, so we can all go get a beer already.

That's my reason, anyway.

BTW, agree with your comments on Pulp Fiction, Malkovich, and especially Election (one of the funniest films I've seen in a long time). And Resevoir Dogs? I actually think it's a stronger film than Pulp Fiction! Some interesting tastes here, that's for sure.

you sickos you have no taste in movies.

election wasn't exactly great, but it wasn't bad. same with malkovich. platoon. you people need mental therapy


I can't think of any bad movies. mainly becaue I only watch good movies.


star wars episode 1. I was watching it the other day. Visually it looks great. but that is it. nothing else there. writing is horrible.

star trek 5. what the hell is this crap? 9 isn't much better.

gladiator: ok I like most of this movie. but the incest bit was too much

LOTR- fellowship of the ring: just kidding. but I absolutely hated the first hour of this movie. Luckily it picked up in interest.

Not Another Teen Movie, and all the other "parodies" which actually manage to suck even more than the movies they supposedly poke fun at.

Congo and Battlefield Earth also. Congo sucked so very, very, much.

DD: "Battlefield Earth" IS possibly the worst film ever made, it isn´t even funny like "Plan 9 from outer space" for instance

Other stinkers are:

Mary Shelley´s Frankenstein (with Kenneth Branagh) Grossly overacted by KB who seems to be on crack during the whole movie...

Hudson Hawk another gross overacting performance, this time by Bruce Willis...

Nothing but trouble thoroughly unfunny horror/comedy attempt by Dan Akroyd

more to follow...

Freddy Got Fingered was even worse than Battlefield Earth.

Let us not forget the complete sh*t that was Pearl Harbor (I'll use the American spelling, I wouldn't want to use our spelling and have it associated with this country ).

Another film which I thought was a pile of **** was Starship Troopers. Completely rubbed me up the wrong way, and I thought it was crap.

And those Scary Movie films, never seen one, although I must admit I have avoided them like gonorrhoea.
