Worst film ever?

[DotCommunist]

Manhunter!?? It's brilliant! You're not thinking of that, surely!??

IIRC the guy out of Manhunter (red dragon was de book) had a cleft plate and a hare lip. Not a mask. And it was fucking brilliant

 

[damnhippie]

Mortal Kombat

An American Haunting

some terrible low-budget horror film called The Ticks, about giant ticks sucking people's blood, starring Carlton from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. In retrospect, the warning signs were there...

some Italian horror film called The Church, which ended with a woman having sex with a big rubber Satan puppet.

anything with Kevin Costner in it.

ETA: anything about people coming to terms with something.

Nah, s'not that.

 

[PacificOcean]

Mortal Kombat

It's funny about horses for courses as that is one of my all time favourite films. I think the DVD has warn through now.

"FINISH HIM!"

 

[Idaho]

My brother went to see Sleepless in Seattle once. I asked him how it was.

"Shit in Seattle" he replied.

On the same note, Ms Idaho likes to go and see Rom-Coms but she says that Maid in Manhatten pushed her tolerances to breaking point.

[*]Resident Evil

resident evil?!?! fine film that!

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Face/Off has two of the worst actors ever in it and they are even worse when they're pretending to be each other. I was amazed at how dull an action film could be.

This is very true but there are many many many worse films that have been made.

 

[Kenny Vermouth]

Eraserhead

 

[jugularvein]

only a few have compared with the utterly mindblowing premise of the OP

 

[Flashman]

I still can't believe a mate and I saw Roadhouse three fucking times at the flickers. FFS.

 

[Yetman]

Eraserhead

I've got that on vid, was gonna watch it soon.....is it really shit? I'm a fan of lynch but not in his fucked up 'work everything out for yourself' films.

And if we are talking non-cinema releases then has anyone seen Octopus 3? Or Overboard with Adam Sandler? Or any of those 4 DVD's for £1 packs?

 

[Orang Utan]

Eraserhead is brilliant

 

[undercover]

I vaguely remember Bloodbath at the House of Death being spectactularly awful, but having just looked it up for the first time in probably 20 years, i have a strange craving to see it again just to confirm that.

I'm sure that the stars of Kenny Everett and Pamela Stephenson will prove my memory right...

 

[nino_savatte]

Eraserhead is brilliant

Seconded.

 

[Idaho]

I have remembered what the worst film ever is!

Shopping with Jude Law.

What a load of British Cinema nonsense that was. Meaningless crap set to a wafer thin backdrop which emphasised style-over-substance but yet lacked any real style.

 

[Idaho]

Eraserhead is brilliant

Never seen it but I know I would hate it. Looks all tortured and meaningful. You can just imagine the director thinking - "oh this will be really harrowing to watch, they will probably have nightmares for a week or two after - and yet still it will have absolutely no meaning"

 

[Griff]

I've got that on vid, was gonna watch it soon.....is it really shit? I'm a fan of lynch but not in his fucked up 'work everything out for yourself' films.

Brilliant and quite disturbing.

 

[The Boy]

some terrible low-budget horror film called The Ticks, about giant ticks sucking people's blood, starring Carlton from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. In retrospect, the warning signs were there...

NO FUCKING WAY!!!!

seen that a coupla times when stoned and I reckon it falls in the so bad it's good category.

In fact, it does. It's a simple unalienable (is that even a word) truth.

 

[Yetman]

Eraserhead is brilliant

Nice one, I'll watch it soon then

 

[kerb]

48 you cheeky little twerp !!

aw sorry bomber. i just thought that was released in the forties and you might have been say 14, then add on 60 years and spank me sally, you'd be a pensioner

and thats young twerp oldie

 

[Boogie Boy]

Bladerunner - over rated special effects festival masquerading as a story (even allowing for the end speech by Hauer).

BB

 

[Mogden]

The Perfect Storm - Too much schmaltz
Crash, the 2004 film - It lived up to its name but not in the way they'd hoped
The Watcher - Not Keanu's finest hour

heh! i saw Ticks not-stoned...which was my second mistake

 

[Flashman]

Oh and Closer, utterly shite from start to finish, can't quite believe Marber wrote it.

 

[Groucho]

Another vote for Forest Gump.

 

[8ball]

I really didn't mind Forest Gump but it really seems to wind some people up.
Same goes for Independence Day and Pitch Black, they all seemed like passable examples of their genre. Plus I really enjoyed Face/Off.

I'm never going to live this down

 

[Flashman]

I liked both the Riddick films, Chronicles was obviously big budget city in comparison. Hope they make another, I'd like to see how he goes as leader of the Necromongers.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Oh and Closer, utterly shite from start to finish, can't quite believe Marber wrote it.

Yes, this was a poor film wasn't it? The whole thing seemed totally staged, not really believable at all. And very wooden.

 

[Flashman]

Yeah, I thought for a while that the fact that it was a play originally might have had something to do with your description, but realised actually no, it was just shite. Unbelievable characters, poorly written and dreadfully performed by all, Law and Owen particularly.

Horrid. Avoid at all costs.
