Worst film you have ever seen and why?

[electrogirl]

"really good" - electrogirl

That's illegal now you know.

 

[electrogirl]

Reno (where is that poster now?) gave some scathing condemnation on that film. His ire rested most heavily on the 'tasteless peadophilia sub-plot'

Me, I enjoyed the film because I love crappy time travel hollywood nonsense.

Haha the paedo bit is pretty bad. It was soooo long though, and I didn't care about ANY of the characters and could hardly keep up with which bit of time he was in.

The Butterfly Effect.

I preferred The Butterfly Effect 3: Revelation.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

i agree - there's a lot of fantastic films being made in Britain

Yeah, I made a post the other day saying that the UK film scene appeared to be having a bit of a renaissance and was disagreed with. Can't remember what thread it was.

 

[Orang Utan]

i don't know about renaissance - they've been making good films all the time

 

[ajk]

Crash (the one what won best picture). Possibly the single most patronising film I've ever seen, I learnt more about the complicated issues of race relations from Ebony and Ivory. Toss.

 

[DJWrongspeed]

The Blair Witch Project 2 because it's shit, an obvious cash-in and the only film I have ever walked out of the cinema to.

Entirely agree, I caught about a minute of it on TV a few weeks ago, terrible stuff, the concept is so wrong.

Blates did you watch the directors cut or the cinema version of butterfly effect?

i like the directors cut but the normal version misses the point entriely.


On a similer note the non directors cut version of daredevil its amazing how much 20 mins of kiddy editing can ruin a film.

Killer Clowns from Outerspace- sounds good but it's too shit to even be a contender for 'so shit, it's good'. It's shit-ness goes beyond that!

 

[Cloo]

'Three men and a little Lady' - was got out for me on video when I was about 9 and I switched off after a while of more 'carefree Americans show uptight Brits who are trying to send sweet little girl to boarding school *boo* their delightful American pluck'. *Vomits*

I watched it on telly, but still, does it make Ashton Kutcher act better or the script less cringement on a stick? Liked seeing Randy as a goth though.

I don't know why I trust my sister when she tells me films are good, she said The Hills Have Eyes was the scariest thing she'd ever seen and she also made me watch Gothika which was just ridiculous.

Spoiler: endings of butterfly effect

did it end with him and the girlie passing each other on the street in a de ja vu moment.

or him stangling himself in the womb?

The 1st.

The 2nd doesn't exist..does it? DOES IT??

Also you've just ruined the ending, for like, everyone.

 

[DotCommunist]

Yeah, the ending will enrage any sci fi geek anyway. It's totally Grandfather Paradox, which is well annoying.

 

[kained&able]

you saw the really shit version then, lacks any darkness and generally annoyed me.

The directors cut ain't bad at all.

Spoiler: to argue with dotty

there is no paradox his life didn't happen and everyone was therefore happy

[electrogirl]

Does he really ......?

Good choice. That film was terrible!

 

[sned]

I like bad films.

Outpost - a Scottish-made horror about the ghosts of Nazi super-soldiers. Enjoyed it but it was pretty bad.

The Burning - B-Movie about a caretaker who gets killed by students and comes back from the dead to get revenge.

there's more... too many to mention here.

im always looking for new bad films to watch

 

[kained&able]

Does he really......?

yeah! its proper dark.

 

[ajk]

Spoiler: dave

If his life didn't happen, then he couldn't kill himself. I.E. classic grandfather paradox.

In which case the film should not have existed.

Yeah you can't beat a good bad (i.e. b-movie) film.

It's the ones which are irritatingly smug I can't stand!

Spoiler: pardoxical

nah i was happy with it. cos of the time travel shiz and then nothing happens after it(well for kutcher), no needto realign the time streams or anythingm his life just ends and thats it. One of the few films with a paradox in it that i thought was decently resolved.

The Burning is great - it's got a young George Costanza with hair in it

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Yeah, and i absolutely loved Dog Soldiers, another classic crap b-movie which is somehow great.

thats a good bit of sci fi b movie entertainment. Not crap.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Independence Day - too cringing too watch. Or Captain Corelli's Mandolin for the worst casting ever.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

thats a good bit of sci fi b movie entertainment. Not crap.

So what's the dividing line between a Dog Soldiers and an Anaconda?

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Independence Day - too cringing too watch. Or Captain Corelli's Mandolin for the worst casting ever.

Independence Day wouldn't quite be in my all time list, but it's one of the poorest of any really major blockbuster

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

she also made me watch Gothika which was just ridiculous.

I saw the press screening of that and everyone, and I mean everyone laughed and said 'what the fuck was that' at the end. I have never been to a press screening that had so much bonding with strangers (over the films crapness). I think you could have said to anyone, 'man that was shit, lets grab a pint and forget about it'.
