| WORST MOVIES OF ALL TIME ? (222 views) | AUTHOR / DATE |
| Lately I've been thinking about some of the most horrid and crappy flicks that I have seen. I've thought about the big budget Hollywood popcorn flops and the arthouse "classics" that I can't help but despise as well as the B movies that should never have been thought of. I'm trying to compile my top ten worst films list. Definites so far are "The Last Eve", "Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter", "Shadow: Dead Riot", "Twin Daggers" and a few others. Curious about your thoughts and nominations. Seen a major pile of sh*t ? Tell me about it. | Bastard Ronin 9/29/2008 7:39 AM |
| #2 | Oh man...well you certainly nailed some of the worst ones from recent memory. This is going to be controversial, but one of my absolutely most hated films from recent years was "The Bourne Ultimatum". The camera was so freakin' shaky and nauseating, the editing so pointlessly fast and choppy, it was like watching a film from the inside of a blender.
Bad bad movies are one thing, but it almost pisses me off more when the movie had a chance to be really good but was ruined by some jackass who couldn't use a camera, or couldn't properly record dialog, or light a scene...
Don't you wish that you could just go back into the editing room sometimes and tweak a movie, change the soundtrack, do little changes? Seems kind of crazy to spend $100 million making a movie and just have one version of it... :) | Choco 9/29/2008 3:45 PM |
| #3 | Here's some old school turds for ya:
1)Attack of the Venoms. My boys the Venoms really stunk it up in this one.
2) Nine Demons. Another piece of shit from the Venoms. Thank God these weren't he first two movies of there's I saw or I probably would never have watched another.
3)Kung Fu the Invisible Fist. Chan Sing Rocks, this movie sucks.
4)True Game of Death. This movie is just bad. Never try to imitate Bruce Lee.
5)Battle Wizard. This is a real piece of shit. It looks like a Power Rangers movie. The story is even worst.
6) General Stone is tops of the dung heap. Stone Warriors "come to life? to fight. As bad as it sounds. | William Giordanella 9/29/2008 4:52 PM |
| #4 | Great topic. I always mean to keep a list of the worst I've seen but end up talking myself out of devoting any more energy to them, though now I realize it should a public service sort of thing. Some I can think of right now are "The Touch" and "Second Time Around" - total, nonsensical garbage. "Mindhunters" is another. I do believe that "The Last Eve" is my personal worst, though. | Mimi 9/29/2008 4:59 PM |
| #5 | I could list about a thousand... but most fresh in my memory is RUSH HOUR 3, just saw it for the first time, last night.... oh the horror...!!!! Tired unfunny jokes, lame gags, pathetic action, bad story, laughably bad dialogue.... Chan should just retire, and I say this as a huge JC fan. Chris Tucker is doing same stale stchick he did back in the mid 90's, and it was barely funny then.... not funny now. I can only dread the horror show that will be THE SPY NEXT DOOR!!!! JC's next Hollyweird venture! | JAY LEE 9/30/2008 10:00 AM |
| #6 | Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter is hilarity...for about 10 minutes.
Probably the WORST film I've witnessed in recent years was Be Cool. I wanted to tear my own head off it was so obnoxiously pathetic and not funny.
Worst film that is AWESOME because it's so awful? Samurai Cop. HKflix sells it, check it out. I love it. | TheDenizen 9/30/2008 1:07 PM |
| #7 | I tend to do a pretty good job of avoiding things that are bad. My spidey sense has been well honed. But a friend of mine forced me to see the third Mummy flick and it was terrible. Not only did it have a kid (a surefire way to kill a good action franchise) and some horrible CG. No, that would have been bad enough. But it had to go and take a big, fat, BM on my 'hong kong' sensibilities.
They tell me they're giving me another Mummy flick (of which I very much enjoyed the first one). They tell me it's going to have, Jet, Michelle, and Wu Jing. That's amazing! And, as usual, they all get totally marginalized in a stupid movie.
Worse than that was Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I had such low expectations for it. Anything loosely strung together and mildly entertaining would have satisfied. Instead, Lucas kills a franchise by making a kids movie. Few real locations, no larger-than-life antagonist. Poor CG. Aliens. Offspring... | Garvinstomp 9/30/2008 10:01 PM |
| #8 | I used to watch Elvira, Mistress of the Dark when I was a kid and she used to show some of the worst movies of all time. Try Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. | Big Will 10/2/2008 11:59 AM |
| #9 | The 1998 Hollywood remake of Godzilla with Broderick.
I even saw it in theaters....ugh. | KanYozakura 10/5/2008 6:57 PM |
| #10 | I have done my best to forget the waist of time I spent on some of the worst films put on celluloid. There are some pretty bad ones that I have forgotten the titles to but here are some that more than qualify;
1.) Bruce Li The Invincible: The kung fu apes did make it bad funny in a strange way.
2.) Bruce Li IN New Guinea: This movie sucked in every aspect!
3.) Fist Of The Unicorn: Yusuaki Kurata needed a check bad to appear in this garbage!
4.) Fist Of Fear, Touch Of Death: A boring horrid piece of work starring Fred Williamson.
5.) Jim Kelly movies with the exception of Black Belt Jones. Black Samurai, Tattoo Connection, and Hot Potato. Some may qualify as so bad that they are funny, but they still smelled a little to me!
6.) The Ed Wood films Plan 9 From Outer Space and Bride Of The Atom, they were funny but crap!
7.) The infamous Captain America movie starring Matt Salinger. Complete crap like Roger Corman's Fantastic Four! | Sgt. T 10/5/2008 7:28 PM |
| #11 | Wow, Sgt. T, you don't mess around! Some of those are the HARDCORE bad films!! | Choco 10/5/2008 8:51 PM |
| #12 | We forgot to mention the newly released (on DVD) Nick Fury flick starring Hasselhoff from '98. That is a special kind of bad. | Garvinstomp 10/6/2008 1:16 AM |
| #13 | I started watching YO YO COP GIRL last night, and 30 minutes in, its pretty freaking horrible with possibly the worst special effects in an opening sequence I've ever seen. Will let you know if it deserves to be on this list when I finish watching it. | YoMama 10/15/2008 3:43 PM |
| #14 | Oh, anything with Ben Affleck in it, except for maybe "Chasing Amy", not that that was good because he was in it. | YoMama 10/15/2008 3:44 PM |
| #15 | Fist Of The Golden Monkey. The movie was so bad I don't no how they were able to conciously continue filming. | Kung Fu Classic Viewer 10/24/2008 1:41 PM |
| #16 | ATTACK OF THE EYE CREATURES - 1965 | SB Fanatic 10/27/2008 8:31 PM |
| #17 | According to Criticker, the 10 films I've ranked the lowest out of all the films I've seen are: Be Cool, Catwoman, Epic Movie, Kicking & Screaming (Will Ferrel in a kids soccer flick, ugh), Rush Hour 3, Wild Wild West, Hudson Hawk, Tomcats, Pearl Harbor and Son in Law (though really anything with Pauly Shore could be on this list).
Some stinkers. | TheDenizen 12/2/2008 7:48 AM |
| #18 | "Pearl Harbor" is infuriating to me because there are huge chunks of the film that are spectacular, but then there's all that f'ing crap ruining it. I absolutely think that the "big attack" scene has some of the most amazing, realistic FX I've ever seen on film (up there with some of the stuff from "Starship Troopers"). I'd KILL to be able to re-edit "Pearl Harbor" somehow into a much shorter, really kick-ass film without all the useless romantic fluff and tedium. | Choco 12/2/2008 11:22 AM |
| #19 | Choco, I have a similar feeling about "Spider-man 3". If you remove all of the awesome FX and super hero fights you have one of the worst movies in history. The direction, writing and acting were just painful. I mean, damn, me and my crew could have made a better Spider-man flick with their means completely drunk. But, it's clear now that Sam Raimi prefers crack. | Bastard Ronin 12/11/2008 9:20 AM |
| #20 | Speaking of Spiderman (and other superhero movies of late) What is up with the hero always ripping his mask off to give away his secret identity??? I went nuts when Spiderman ripped off his mask in Spiderman 2 on the train and then everyone says "We won't tell your identity Spiderman." Why didn't Stan Lee say "no way in hell?" | William Giordanella 12/22/2008 7:46 PM |
