I thought The Lost Boys was pretty bad when it came out but that didn’t stop me from seeing it around 25 times or so. In the theatre, no less. Thank god for dollar night!

I just thought a lot of the scenes were kind of hokey…

So, what about some lists of worst movies ever made?

Well… being a connoisseur of bad horror movies, I’ll just mention a few.

For really bad bad movies, the worst I’ve seen is The Last Horror Movie. We were watching it at one of our Movie Nights, and we ended up turning it off after half an hour. It was so tedious.

For wonderful bad horror movies, I vote for Frogs, Blood Gnome, Voodoo Academy, A Bucket of Blood, and Rats.

We recently got The Rats (aka Deadly Eyes), which involves daschunds dressed up in rat costume. I have high hopes for it.
wink

 

I thought that House of 1000 Corpses was AWFUL.
My friends and I turned it off after the first 30 minutes or so.
I’m sure Rob Zombie is a genious and all, but that movie sucked.
.. in my opinion smile

Well, my wife and I rented ‘Descent’ thinking it would be a fun picturesque movie (I mean, the starlets were all beautiful young women) and it turned into this non-sensical very stupid ‘gore’ movie, with no redeeming features.

‘Descent’ has got to be in any self-respecting list of ‘most disappointing movies, although it did show a lot of wonderfully uncovered starlet thighs and sweaty, heaving bosoms.

Dan, sometimes not the right guy to send to Blockbuster Video, you know?

Looked like another typical Sandler comedy…

Oh yes, The Descent is very, very bad.
SPOILER-ISH BELOW!

Women getting attacked by what looks like a tribe of Gollums whilst in a cave? What a disappointing movie!

Okay, here are some of the movies I’ve seen that I consider to be various types of bad.  They’re in no particular order, really.

“Good” bad movies:
- I admit I have a weakness for a lot of those old “giant reptile/insect/octopus/alien attacks” types of movies, especially the older ones before they got into all the digital special effects.
- Eight Legged Freaks (2002) (although really, this movie was supposed to be bad in a good way, so since it is maybe that makes it just a good good movie?  Or maybe not. . .)
- The Conquerer (1956) (John Wayne as Genghis Khan in an epic miscasting!)
- Independence Day (1996)
- Red Sonja (1985)
- All those Missing In Action movies (1984 onwards)
- Plan 9 From Outer Space (1959)
- Godzilla (1998)
- Starship Troopers (1997)

“Bad” bad movies:
- A lot of those old “giant reptile/insect/octopus/alien attacks” types of movies, especially the newer ones after they got into all the digital special effects.
- 2001:  A Space Odyessey (1968)
- Apocalypse Now (1979)
- Get Shorty (1995)
- A Clockwork Orange (1971)
- Red Planet (2000)
- The Birds (1963)
- The Shining (1980)
- Mars Attacks! (1996)
- Antz (1998) (I just find Woody Allen to be annoying in most of his pictures, after about the first twenty minutes or so of his portraying yet another quirky and neurotic guy)
- The Island of Doctor Moreau (1996)
- All those Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler movies that all sort of blur together because the actor always plays the exact same character with only a different name
- Dune (1984)
- Full Metal Jacket (1987)
- The Thin Red Line (1998)
- Lost in Space (1998)
- Some movie portraying the story of Exodus that I saw on a Christian television station (although I did keep one gem from the experience:  a wonderful line where Moses, upon coming down from the mountain and finding the Hebrews have been bad boys, turned to one man and, in righteous wrath, denounced him as a “traitorous turnip!“).
- A good percentage of the Sci-Fi Channel productions
- Event Horizon (1997)
- Barry Lyndon (1975)
- Waterworld (1995)
- Highlander 2 (1991)
- The Avengers (1998)
- Star Wars:  Attack of the Clones (2002)
- Planet of the Apes (2001) (even if the human girl was kinda cute)

Okay, the best movie that no one ever heard of:

‘Once More Around’

with Richard Dreyfuss and (sigh…......) Holly Hunter.  (Note to Bebe:  she does not stand a chance of affecting my school-boy infatuation with you, so keep them bodyguards near!)

Wonderful movie, incredibly well-written, and Richard Dreyfuss is amazing in his portrayal of his character.  The movie starts out a bit oddly, with Richard Dreyfuss making a bit of a fool of himself (actually, a big asshole) at an awards dinner in his honor, then he progressively becomes more and more endearing, and of course Holly Hunter goes from despising him to loving him, and the ending is honestly heart-wrenching.

My mother picks the WORST movies.  She looks at who is in it & sees how interesting the blurb on the back is…And then I happen to see it on the kitchen counter before she watches it.

“Mom, this is soft porn.“
But the back of it was interesting.
“Soft porn blurbs are ALWAYS interesting.  It’s how they hook you.“

Then when she says she will watch it anyway (to prove how wrong I am of course)...she will undoubtedly call me w/i 30 minutes of starting the movie & go, “Why didn’t you tell me it would be like this??“  And she’s all freaked out of course.

I hate when she is the one to pick out a rental!  Having worked in a video store for nearly 2 years…I can very easily tell an A movie from Bs…and Fs of course.  You don’t even have to read the blurbs.
