What is the worst movie you've ever seen?

Mission to Mars. Ugh. Everyone involved should be deeply ashamed.

I seldom go to the movies anymore since I think that most movies stink! I get videos so if I start watching them and don't like what I'm seeing, I can just turn them off. The last time I went to the 'cinema', I went because the movie starred Bruce Lee's son and so I went to please my husband. It was "The Crow" and I'll have to say that that was the worst movie I've seen.

I know I've seen some bad ones, but the truly bad ones at least stood out from the mediocre. I've only ever walked out on a live performance and that was a community theatre (professional)
performance of Yes, Virginia, There is A Santa Claus. Yuck. Oh, and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes may be a cult classic but it would have been better in stew than on screen.

Definitely Scary Movie 2 ... it was HORRIBLE. No plot, not very funny, just plain 'ol BAD.

That's a tough one because I've seen a lot of crap. I really hate "It's a Wonderful Life", but I don't know if it's the worst I've ever seen. I also hate really long movies.

There are several. One that sticks out is Scary Movie 2.

I try to blot bad movies out of my memory. Probably one of the horrible "educational" films that were inflicted on me in my elementary school days.

Hands down it was this horrible, HORRIBLE kung-fu spoof movie that my son just had to go to the theater to see last year. KUNG POW. Ack! Terrible! My "loving," "considerate" ex actually went to far as to buy this movie for my son's at home viewing pleasure, knowing full well that this child will watch a movie over and over...and over...and over...........and over....

It depends what you class as "worst" I suppose - there are plenty of films I've given up on half way through due to boredom, goreyness or excesive fart jokes. The Cable Guy is the first one that springs to mind. The worst in a so-bad-it's-good way has to be Razor Blade Smile, which has a reasonable plot, but a budget of about 50p, and some truly awful acting, oh, and a fantastic sex scene or two thrown in for good measure. Really funny, but probably not in the way it was
intended!

I don't see many movies. I still shudder when I remember a grim evening of films produced by
underachieving-but-supposedly-talented-students.

Still by far this movie called "Boxing Helena" by David Lynch's daughter. It had no redeeming qualities. Not even nice camera work.

This French movie we had to watch in high school! It was probably four hours long and it was about this family who lived in a house with green cement for a yard. There was a big fish fountain in the middle of the cement, and these little kids kept blowing whistles to get people to walk into poles. Other than that, the movie just followed the different family members around at the market and other places. It was simultaneously strange and dull. My husband remarks that I have to put in something about The Fast and the Furious, but that's not really in the same category.

I just saw Reefer Madness, that was a pretty bad movie. But it does have some kind of historical value. I did really hate evry Jean Claude Van Damme movie I have ever seen.

I can't think of any. I usually walk out if they are that bad.

It's a tie for worst-ever movies. There were two. Dr. T and the Women and Zulu. I have a huge list of movies I just wouldn't bother watching again, but those two are on my "just burn the videos" list.
