On another thread we got to talking about crappy movies and I want to see your pics:

-The Terror Of Tiny-Town (the all-midget western)
-The Unborn (the 90's one, not the recent version)
-Dragonlance Chronicles (the naimated movie- it'll kill your inner child)
-Event Horizon: a haunted house in space with a drive that escaped from a Tool video. The ship itself looked a bit like a rubber chicken.

I would also have to go with:
  • Highlander 2
  • Highlander: Endgame
  • Alien: Ressurection
  • The Green Slime
  • Any of the made for Sci-Fi (now the Ebonics driven SYFY) channel
  • Battlefield Earth
  • Willow

It's all totally subjective. There are some people who love Event Horizon (not my favourite film, but I've seen much worse) and others who even like Hudson Hawk for goodness sake.

Personally I rather like Willow, one of the only 'sword & sorcery' films that I can sit through.
While on the other hand I understand Buckaroo Banzai has a loyal following of fans while I really don't get the appeal and after two attempts have so far been unable to sit through the whole thing.

Any "worst" film really depends on the criteria as it's very hard to define quality and of course the MST3K/Rifftrax people have made a living off the "so bad it's good" factor.

Moonraker-
see Roger Moore waddle through a 007 movie!
see Retards in love- in zero G!

Robin Hood: Men in Tights
I cant believe thsi was made by the same guy that made Blazing Saddles.

The Fifth Element- yeah a lot of people love it but a lot of people vote Republican too.
No plot, of any kind, whatsoever.
The nice SFX dont excuse Chris Tucker's annoyance factor.

I didn't find Endgame that bad (at least in comparison to the other Highlander films, especially the fifth)

I have a VHS copy of Green Slime, it's terrible but it's really funny to watch. The theme song is trippin'

"You won't know it until you're dead! Green Slime!!!"

Saw that in the theater. A local cinema was showing old movies for cheap all summer once when I was a kid.

Exactly my point. I thought it was tedious shite.

I'm sure someone out there thinks the likes of 'Batman & Robin' or 'Battlefield Earth' are cinematic genius.

The Creeping Terror - Giant mutant rug that eats people, or rather people kinda crawl into its mouth. Features a bizarre scene where the narrator goes on and on about the pros and cons of being married.

Naked Fear - A stripper, needing money, engages in prostitution. Her first customer just happens to be a serial killer(don't you hate when that happens) who then proceeds to drop her naked in the middle of a forest/desert. Probably the flimsiest rationale for having a woman prance around naked outside of a porno. At one point she's found by some guy and his two sons, one of which assumes she's a hippie cause she's naked! Then there's a weird scene where the guy and his sons engage in prayer! I dunno if they were trying to go for realism here, as I'm sure people do pray, but just seems inappropriate after seeing a woman run naked for the past 45 minutes! Towards the end the chick gets Wonder Women strength and invincibility, biting of the serial killer's ear Mike Tyson style and mangling his leg, taking a couple of shots from his sniper rifle at almost point blank range, and getting run over by a van driven by a couple of stoners! She then proceeds to steal the stoners' van, run over the serial killer, and drive back to town where's she discovered by police. But even that's not the end! She has to be bound to her hospital bed cause now she's all crazy and violent! And she actually breaks from her bonds, where the movie pulls a Star Trek (2009) and jumps 10 years ahead, ending with the chick now working as a vigilante killing sex offenders. This steaming pile also features a subplot with some other guy which does nothing but pad the film.

Boy this post got long! [Wink]

That sort of reminds me of a film I caught the last two thirds of ages ago, though for the life of me I can't remember the title.
Again, it had a girl who spent most of the film running around in the altogether (though she has knee length hair that's draped down her front, so you have to wonder about the point) from some weird, winged demoness/succubus creature that likes impale people though the chest. I missed the first part of the film so I'm not sure why the thing was chasing her or why she was in the buff, though a vaguely remember some college type kids finding her tied to a log in a cave...I don't know, that film was weird.

The Mexican - I got dragged to this with friends, and if it wasn't for the fact that they just happened to be my ride home I would have bailed.

Casino Royale - If I wanted to watch people play cards I'd... well I've never wanted to watch people play cards and I doubt I'd ever will so I'm not sure where I'm going with this. Either way it was a bad waste of time.

Dungeons and Dragons - Was a little too low budget, it could have been better.

Wing Commander - Oh shit. This movie killed Wing Commander for me.

Wing Commander 3 had Mark Hamill, the movie had Freddy Prinze Jr. That makes me sad.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change.
The courage to change the things I cannot accept.
And the wisdom to hide the bodies of all the people I had to kill today because they pissed me off.

I was going to borrow this off of a friend. Not a good idea to do that then? [Frown]

Why can't they make a live action movie out of it - or even a gritty TV drama!?!

Lord knows how much I agree with you here. I played Wing Commander to death and that movie completely ruined the entire franchise. Ahh the things I would do to play WC3 again... That and X-Wing vs TIE Fighter.
