The worst movie of all time . . .

[zoltrix]

Since I'm really bored, and I've always wanted to start a thread but never done it, here goes:

What is the worst movie (Not including TV movies) ever made, and why?

My vote goes for Mission to Mars, and anyone who's seen it knows why. The ending was the most disappointingly awful thing ever.

 

[Siren]

Just about any oldie porn

 

[bluntforcemama]

StarShip Troopers

We did this yesterday...

...so I'll give the same answer.

Plan 9 from Outer Space.

Wins a Turkey title regularly. Meant to be so bad it's good.

I just find it B.A.D.

 

[p_p_man]

Ah nooo....

StarShip Troopers

Great film...just great.

Night of the Lepus. What a horrible movie!

Carnivorous rabbits?! WTF?

Bad, just bad.

 

[Never]

HELLO!

I'm sorry but you're all wrong here.
The Worst movie of all time is "Glen or Glenda?" with honorable mention being given to "Plan 9" and "Orgy of the Dead".

Yes, all of these were written by Ed Wood.
In 1980 'The Fifty Worst Films of All Times' and 'The Golden Turkey Awards' gave Ed, two years after his death, the Golden Turkey's for Worst Film of All Time, and Worst Director of All Time.

I'll pay money to anyone who can find me films worse than the three listed above.

[edit]
And yes, I've seen Night of the Lepus. How anyone could call a film with cute bunnies in it bad I don't know.
Okay, maybe it's the worst film not made be Ed Wood.

I refer you to "Egah". I have seen Glen or Glenda and Plan 9. Both are so bad as to be funny. When a film is so bad that even MST3K can't save it, such as in Egah's case, you know it's got to be pretty frikkin bad.

 

[p_p_man]

What Never said...

...I'll just keep Plan 9 as my No 1.

The unheralded bad movie of all time is "Viking Wowen" (American International Pictures) with Abby Dalton. Very bad but hilarious.

Also, what's that SciFi movie with Zsa Zsa Gabor in it about the Venus being inhabited with only women. I think the title mentions Mars but they never go there!

Terms of Endearment.
I never rooted so hard for a terminal disease in my life.
Too bad it wasn't contagious....

 

[RisiaSkye]

In keeping with Pyper's rationale

I also submit Manos, the hands of fate
Though Andy Warhol's Sleep belongs on this list, too.

Also, Troll 2. All one needs to know about this movie is that it takes the characters over an hour to notice, in a town full of creepy-crawlies, that Nilbog (the town name) is Goblin spelled backwards. And when they do, somehow it explains everything. And, you can spot stage hands, boom mics, and other amateurish errors all throughout.

Finally Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-a-Rama. Even Rhonda Sheer's old USA Up All Night marathons couldn't make this one watchable.

 

[Bubblegum *sugarless*]

Grease 2

"We're gonna bowl tonight?" Ughh.

 

[asylumkitten]

I don't know...

I watched "Eyes Wide Shut" last night and it was horrible. The worst acting...the worst plot...it just all around sucked. The nudity was the only thing good about it. I knew I should have just watched a porno. *smiles*

 

[Ask For More]

This is a tough call because there are so many bad b-movies it makes the choice somewhat difficult

Out of all the films I've seen I can't remember one well enough to single it out as the worst....probably blocked out the emotional trauma of watching it!

 

[unusuallyconfused]

I saw the movie "the Assassin" which was incredibly stupid. It had some decent reviews and I thought it sucked.

 

[Renegade]

Rage of the Werewolf. A very cheap B-Movie that I unfortunatly own. *Shudders*

 

[BlondGirl]

Something Wild

That was a horrid film.

I recently saw Down to Earth and debated about demanding my money back.

 

[Andra_Jenny]

To be the worst you need a measuring stick,
like cost to return.

Ishtar?

 

[Merelan]

Let's see where do I start...
Space Crystals? That is awful, you keep expecting it to turn into a porn, due to music and acting. Naked Space, though funny as hell. That one is suppose to be bad. But exceeds bad by several whatever it is you use to measure bad movies with. Thought the singing alien is cool. "I want to eat your face..."

Let's see. I love Plan 9, Husband hates it. Guess you have to be sick to enjoy it. Especially the scenes where the set chiropractor replaces Bela Lugosi by holding the cape over his face. The great one had died during the filming of it. In fact, maybe I should watch that one now.
"We are all interested in the future, because that is where we all will be spending the rest of our lives." Hahahaha


Thanks. Keep listing the movies, I am taking notes before ascending on the local video store and making Miss Barbie Bitch wince. Yes, she kinda looks like Barbie and dresses and acts like a Barbie come to life with a doll stand shoved up her ass. If so, then I guess I would be cranky too. Hates it when I come in as she has never heard of anything filmed before 1995 and I actually make her look things up and order them. Sheesh. Naughty Merelan.

B-movies don't count

If we include all the B-movies, the list would never end. The people who made those movies were obviously TRYING to be bad, and they succeeded tremendously.

As for Starship troopers, you've gotta be kidding me - That was awesome! Any movie with giant insects can't be all bad.

I agree, Eyes wide shut was awful. Also awful was The Opposite of Sex, with Christina Ricci, and The Wedding Planner, w/ J.Lo. Of course, all Romantic comedies are pretty much the same, so they all count at the bottom.

 

[scylis]

Titanic.. but the ending WAS ok, though i wish Leo would have had a more grisley death..

 

[nasty]

I agree with p.p

Plan 9 From Outer Space was HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That movie STINKS!!!!!!!!!! It is BAD!!!!!!!!!!! The acting is WORTHLESS!!!!!!!!! The plot is RETARDED!!!!!!!! The effects are TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you tell I hated it?

 

[RisiaSkye]

zoltrix

Come on! I loved The Opposite of Sex. Oh well...

If we're sticking with movies that had an actually budget and/or cast, I nominate In Love and War with Sandra Bullock and Chris O'Donnell. Wretched, just wretched.

Also, Super Mario Brothers with Bob Hoskins, The Marrying Man with Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin, and Excess Baggage with Alicia Silverstone and Benicio del Toro.
