What are some of the worst films you have seen?

Anything by Shyamalan, Tarantino, and Cronenberg.

I don't have a problem with Boll or (Paul W.S.) Anderson and the like because everybody should know what to expect when you walk into one of their movies. It's the overrated and gimmicky directors whose movies I truly loath.
 
Eraserhead. :mad:

Nothing else even close (except maybe Dune).

Hell, the guy looks like that guy, Beakman, from Beakman's World!
 
The absolute worst ever was Pokemon, The First Movie. My kid made me take him and I've hated him ever since.;)

I can't believe Borat was a pick and personally thought it comic genius. Maybe it was better for me because I know a few real life people who Borat could easily have been modeled after. Oh well, to each their own.

Other horrid movie picks are almost anything on LMN.

1. Saw (I just don't get this genre of gratuitous torture flicks…)

Yeah Saw was just so pathetic you had to laugh your way through it. But I think Jason vs. Freddy has got to be the worst attempt at a horror film ever.

Pretty much everything but specifics-

Juno
Napoleon Dynamite
(the new) War of the Worlds
Any teen comedy or teen horror. They're either horrifically unfunny or so obvious and cliché that it becomes an unintentional comedy.

I agree with you on War of the Worlds and any teen comedy or horror film, however I can't disagree with you more about Napoleon Dynamite or Juno. Both of those were truly original and interesting movies.

That was one of the funniest Jack Black movies ever made. You have to watch it all the way through to approve of the "sweded" method and the message at the end that history is what you record it to be.

With all that said, Amelie is still one of the best foreign films ever made and my nominee for worst film ever would have to be the Banger Sisters or some crap like that -- I've seen so many bad ones they all kind of blend together now.

EDIT:

@NCMacGuy - yeah Borat was great except for when he wrestled naked with his producer. That almost made me heave.
PS - You Australians aren't welcomed here at my fruit stand. Go buy your banana and apple elsewhere. ;)
 
Worst ever films I've seen?

These come to mind right away:
AI, I am Legend, Entrapment, Xanadu,
 
My other half says "The Hulk"

I say...

Big let down...

Hostel

and that horror film, the British one... where the foot is in the fridge. Any ideas?:eek:

sorry i tend to forget the names of bad films i watch.

Mark.

For me an interesting film is one that I can't predict the ending so early on. Juno. It was painfully obvious that the older couple weren't going to stay together and that there was going to be a conflict on whether Juno was going to keep the baby in the end. Terribly flawed and predictable.
Also the way they tried to highlight trinket items and themes (that phone, that music, the furniture and styling) was so obvious.

Napoleon Dynamite? Just mindless, aimless, plotless drivel that played out more like a Day in the Life style TV documentary.
