Worst movie you have ever seen?

[RoseRed]

All I remember of that movie is when he shoves that huge needle into Uma Thurman's (sp?) heart after she OD's on coke.

The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is the funniest movie I have ever seen in my life. When Leatherface's brother was chasing the girl at the end, and he was right up on her and waving his arms around, but still couldn't seem to grab onto her, I was laughing so hard I thought I was going to pee in my pants. The newer one though, that kinda scared the crap outta me.

Worst movie would probably be Head of State (Chris Rock)

You know what's a pretty good "bad" movie? Casino. We're watching it right now - Sharon Stone should have gotten an award for that performance.

Best: Gone With the Wind

Why is gone with the Wind so good. My mother picked my name from that movie. Then I was it I thought it was boring. So what is so good about Gone With The Wind?:shrug: :shrug:

Too true, that movie always holds my attention when Im flipping channels. I've probably seen it 20 times. One of the few movies where I thought Stone was great.

Wonder how many of the younger crowd has seen "Failsafe", think it was made in the mid to late 50s..b/w...I still find it riveting tho I haven't seen it in a few years.

You know what cracks me up about Casino? Watching it on TV where the language has been cleaned up.

"Freak you! Freak you, Sam!"
"Freak me? Freak YOU!"

RR, I thought she snorted heroin.

Maybe it was, I guess I didn't pay close enough attention.

My wife and I tried watching Gone With the Wind. It was a decent piece of moviemaking, but we couldn't stand Scarlet's whining and we turned it off after an hour. "Frankly, my dear, you're a spoiled brat."

I'm 37 and I saw FailSafe on TV as a teenager. Gripping with an excellent cast. (I sound like Leonard Maltin.) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058083/

The worst one I've seen lately (last 5 years) is "The Mexican" with Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts. I still can't understand how that BAD of a movie could be made with those two.

Some of Julia Roberts' roles get on my nerves. She was too angry in The Mexican and Erin Brockovich. Every time she began haranguing someone, I cringed.

I liked part of Forrest Gump. But I was turned off by Zemekis' use of Jenny to imply that the 1960s were evil, especially when he hints at the end that she has AIDS. That's the kind of stridency that I hate in Oliver Stone's films. I was surprised to find out that the original novel is more of a black comedy.

Worst, *WORST* movie had to be, "Battlefield Earth". The whole theater was ####ed. I've never read the book, but some present said it was pretty faithful to it - so I have to think, damn, how DID that book ever get MADE?

I really didn't like "3000 Miles to Graceland".

All of the Batman movies after the first one.

All of the Superman movies, after the first one.

Come to think of it, most of the lesser known "super-hero" flicks, like "The Phantom" and "Captain America", "The Avengers", "Darkman", "Judge Dredd", "Tank Girl", "Legend of the Lone Ranger", "Barb Wire".

I LIKE them when they are *supposed* to be campy and silly. Like "Meteor Man". And I'm probably the only guy on the planet who actually LIKES "Hudson Hawk".

(Previously, someone listed "GroundHog Day" as their worst. It has always and continues to be, one of my all-time favorite movies. But that COULD be, because I like the transformation of Murray's character from self-centered jerk, to sneaky opportunist, to conniving "player", to desperation, despair, sucide, resignation and finally, acceptance, optimism and kindness).

Stupidest Movie: Clerks ...

Favorite: Shawshank Redemption

WORST MOVIE EVER!!!

The worst movie I had to ever sit through was "Stuck on You". It was from the same guys who did "Me, Myself and Irene".

They went from first to worst between those two runs...

Next to "stuck" I have to say the "New Guy" pretty much sucked too.

Worst: Club Paradise and Kung Pow. enter the fist.

Yeah - that one sucked pretty hard. Which was a bummer, because the commercials made it look funny, and I wanted to see it.


There may be more movies I hated worse than that one - but the only one I can think of right now: Leprachaun.

OMG that was horrible.

Love stuff by the Cohens: "Raising Arizona" "Fargo"
M Night Shalyman: "Signs", & the "I See Dead People"

Used Cars, Blue Velvet, and really obscure stuff like Atomic Cafe, Liquid Sky & Repo Man were great as were almost every 50's & 60's war movie, the classics like Bogie & the Duke, almost every one is great.

Love the old black & white movies, with great use of shading & shadows, film noir stuff, gives you a feeling color movies never can.

So bad it's good: of course anything by Russ Meyers, a lot of the 60's movies, "Our Man Flint", the zany swinger movies .

Worst, almost everything that comes out nowdays, especially the over-hyped ones like Matrix, Superhero stuff, anything by Stallone, predictable plots.

Blue Velvet,

Dennis Hopper really made that movie by his character of Frank.

Never really under stood what the message we were to get from the movie, unless it was in small quiet mayberry type neighborhoods, evil still lurks.
