Worst film ever?

KellyDJ said:
Streetfighter
I was nearly in that as an extra, went for an "audition" when they were filming it in bangkok, and got to prance around in one of those blue/black cammo suits before failing to make the cut....

Their loss though, as without me in it, it sunk to the depths of being mentioned on a worst film of all time thread...:p
 
i dunno really. i'm a prejeudiced opiniated bastard when it comes to films, so there's loads i just won't watch, on the basis that they look arse/have an arse in them/are likely to be arse/the last fim the directo made was arse etc etc, so there's lots i'm sure i would have thought were the worst films ever if i'd watched them...streetfighter, end of days, total recall etc etc.

worst i've seen are pitch black, slither, xxx ( a rare occasion when i broke the arse principle and watched it) and star wars....any of the fuckers, they're all unwatchable dross.
 
Blair Witch 2 was terrible and utterly pointless after the (I thought) quite good orignal.

Aye I saw it for the first time recently and its utter arse.

The worst film I've seen recently is that Alexander one, fucking awful.

And those new Star Wars movies are laughably bad.

Do you mean Reign of Fire?

Yeah. :mad:

I really got taken in by the poster for that.

Pissed off with London, struggling into work on the tube, I suddenly see a poster for a film involving huge dragons burning London to the ground, fighting against helicopter gunships. It sounded utterly immense.

The actual film though was seriously anticlimactic compared to what the poster conveyed. The poster was IMO the greatest film ad poster ever.

YES!! Thats the fucker :mad:

They must have realised it was shit and then paid for some top ad people to come and get people to see it by using a great advert :mad:

Fucks. I hated it.
 
I proposed Junior but I'm going to stick my neck out and nominate Species; a film that appears to be centred on male fears of female sexuality. Alost every scene is a reference to this fear. Shocking, absolutely shocking.
 
'Howard the Duck' was probably one of the worst films I ever had to sit through at the pictures. :(

Fucking awful.

So we're all agreed it's American Beauty then?

No, it's Face/Off
Look, are we not confusing rubbish with brilliant now? Are you seriously saying that these films are worse than, say, 'Speed 2: Cruise Control'? I mean, fuck off...
 
Showdown in Little Tokyo starring Dolph Lundgren and Brandon Lee.

The highlight is after dolph has slept with the love interest and she turns to him and says "that time I heard you coming!" (him having snuck up on her earlier in the film.)

pure. class.
 
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.

I thought it was a crackin' flick. :)
 
Yeah me too :confused:

As for 'American Beauty': the cinematography in that film is amongst the best I've ever seen. Pure candy for the eyes, but the film still has a lot more to it.

What was that film where Magnum PI played an Irish settler in Australia???

At first glance I thought that was a film with Tom Selleck playing an Irish setter in Australia which sounded brilliant

Freddie Got Fingered has to be up there. Or down there, rather.
Bollocks, thats a very funny fillum.
As for genuinely bad:
-Hamburger Hill
-Love Actually (and all those nauseating Hugh Grant made-for-yank films with foppish cunts living living on the South Bank working in a right on job, they are truly shit and give impressionable people abroad a very warped idea of what goes on in England)
-Dude wheres my car

It's just DLR trying to be an iconoclastic barb in the collective urban conciousness. He's rubbish at it :D
If I have saved just one person from having to sit through Bladerunner, then my work is done.

:cool:
 
Gone in 60 seconds.
No Retreat No Surrender 3
Roadhouse.

Will be back with more nominations later.
 
'Truly, Madly, Deeply': some bullshit love story about ghosts or something 'starring' Alan Rickman. I remember it only for Rickman's performance in one, solitary excruuuuuciating scene. I've plucked this description of it from IMDB, where it stands as the sole voice of reason, bordered on all sides by silly bitches bashing on about how lovely the film is:

http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0103129/usercomments?start=70

Am I alone in hating this movie? Or is it because I come from the same part of London as these characters? If someone asked me to hop and tell them my life story in 30 seconds, I know what two word answer I'd give them.
I think I was only about 10 when I saw that scene but, even then, I paused in horror with my chips halfway to my mouth, watching this cretin hopping along telling the simpering cow he was with where he grew up, and so on, and thought:

"What a cunt".

To this day my feelings are unchanged.

no way is roadhouse that bad!
karate kid III should be on the list.


Roadhouse is unmitigated shite. Granted it occasionaly makes me laugh which may make it unsuitablefor this thread.

I agree with KK III
 
More

The Green Berets - Starring John Wayne. This is essentially a liaison between the Pentagon and Hollywood to present the Vietnam War as 'just'. Proof that Hollywood isn't a hotbed of communism, liberalism or whichever 'ism' is on the right's shitlist for the week.

XXX - Vin Diesel shouts, punches and shoots his way through a typical Hollywood actioner that has the barest of storylines and even worse acting.

Breathless
- Unnecessary Hollywood remake of the French Nouveau Vague classic A Bout de Souffle. It stars the Dali Lama's arse-kisser-in-chief, Richard Gere.
 
A few contenders:

  • Dances With Wolves (admittedly I saw this when very young so I may be wrong,but I doubt it)
  • Mortal Kombat
  • Resident Evil

But the worst for me is an obscure one which annoyingly I can't remember the name of. It was a low budget British horror film where a Jason-like masked serial killer falls in love with a blind girl. Truly truly awful. Anyone know the name?

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