Ghost Ship.
90 minutes of total bumgravy.
'I know, let's make a rip off of The Shining, on a cruise liner!'.
Let's not, eh?
Good points:
One scene at the beginning. Just the one mind.
Bad points:
Absolutely everything else.
It makes Supergirl look like the Godfather.
Bah........
Date Night is always worse.
Nahhh can’t beat the recently released Mulan. At one point sees a potential avalanche BEHIND the opposition army so sets off on her horse, time wise 5 seconds later and she’s there!!! Utter tosh, 2/10!!!
It's on Amazon.
Go and watch it, then have a think about what you've just said.
Grease is arguably the worst film ever.
Dolittle and I'll sit through all sorts of garbage, terrible story, terrible acting, terrible accents.
The Happening load of bollocks of a story and **** all ever happens.
So this means you have watched "D' Mrs. Brown's Boys Movie" and it's better than Ghost Ship?
Any Sharknado film
Waterworld
All Harry Potter films
Meet Joe Black.
Thought I was in with Shoz when I went to the cinema with her to see it.
Turned into an experience neither of us could ever speak of again; purely because of the film.
Nothing is as awful.
So this means you have watched “D’ Mrs. Brown’s Boys Movie”
Damn, I was pretty certain Grease was the worst ever movie, it's even worse than the Star Wars movies. But just the title of that movie and now I'm not so sure.
Get Out
Monumentally, embarrassingly bad film.
Worse still, I only watched it as someone on here said it was really good. 😳 Last time I listen to you stwf...
Repossessed
Don’t know if it counts but I was roped by my 8 year old into taking her to see “Cats and Dogs 3” this afternoon.
That’s just an entirely new level. It makes Open Water look like the first Jaws.
Oh and Get Out is a great film.
Troll Hunter. And Van Helsing...
Tomb Raider
And Van Helsing
Was just coming here to say Van Helsing. Utter bilge.
Waterworld
Piss off waterworld is great.
Freddie got fingered
Meet the Spartans.
What’s my prize?
Nicolas Cage has been in some shockers.. but Left Behind stands like a shining beacon of dog crap among the meerly bad films..
J
The Mist
Cocktail. I bet none of you have seen it. I haven’t seen it all, I fell asleep. In the cinema. It was a matinee.
Apparently "The Room" is the worst film ever. So bad they made a movie about it "The Distaster Artist". Haven't watch either. I've been enthusiastically told I have to watch the first because it's soooo bad. Doesn't really sell it to me!
88 Minutes starring Al Pacino.
It was filmed in 2004 but never finished, when the studio got into trouble they scraped up whatever was on the cutting room floor and pushed it out to an unsuspecting audience in 2007.
Highlander 2 blows goats.
The witch or Sweeney Todd.
Two massive, massive disappointments.
Dude, where's my car?
Only film that has ever made me leave a cinema.
Highlander 2 blows goats.
I may have to concede you have a contender. Highlander 2 would have been better if it had been ‘Highlander 2 blows goats’
Bad many of the suggestions so far maybe at least most of them have pretty decent filmography and production values.Just tune in to the Horror channel any day and see ridiculous stories,terrible acting,worse scripts,schoolboy photography and the worst "special effects" ever.
Ladies and gents, I give you "Faces in the Crowd":
"A horror-thriller centered on a woman living with "face-blindness" after surviving a serial killer's attack. As she lives with her condition, one in which facial features change each time she loses sight of them, the killer closes in."
Utter bilge
Grease is arguably the worst film ever.
Fack off!!
2020 ****ing ridiculous. 6 days 7 nights ****ing awful. The long kiss goodnight, OMG ****ing awful!! Gina Davies actually picks up a gun that has been sat in flames for a good minute or so and fires it. Like it wouldn't burn her ****ing hand!! Utter shite.
Am I the only one to have watched Boomerang starring Eddie Murphy?
Also, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Not the Johnny Depp version, the £1.99 straight to dvd version based around the Johnny Depp film.
Tree of Life - a couple of hours I will never get back despite a cast including Brad Pitt, Sean Penn and Jessica Chastain.
Highlander 2 blows goats
This, highlander 2 is so bad it ruined highlander.
Ghost Ship.
90 minutes of total bumgravy.
‘I know, let’s make a rip off of The Shining, on a cruise liner!’.
Let’s not, eh?
What you should have watched was Triangle
The biggest bag o'shite I've ever sat through was King Frat - kinda like Porky's but faaaar worse.
P.S. Troll Hunter is all kinds of awesome!
Shaving Ryan's Privates or Jurassic Pork.
Open Water.
... is the right answer, and it's so bad that you beat me to citing a fairly obscure film here.
Apparently “The Room” is the worst film ever.
I'm aware of this but I've not watched it yet. I'm halfway through reading an introspective on it independently of this thread.
Highlander 2 blows goats
Highlander 2 was a troubled film and this is a complex answer, it's now midnight so I'll come back to this tomorrow.
Obviously none of you have seen "Silverado"....
Star Wars all of it and it's children.
The Disaster Artist is a good film, didn’t make me want to watch The Room though which does seem to be generally regarded as the worst film ever.
As I recall that was an accolade frequently given to Showgirls, a film I managed about 10 minutes of
Problem is that most people don't watch truly awful films, so if you ask someone, they will usually list something mediocre rather than truly awful. I went through the Wikipedia list of worst films to check whether I'd actually seen any, I've only seen Reefer Madness, which is hilariously silly.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_considered_the_worst
However, Bat Pussy sounds intriguing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bat_Pussy
The largest area of criticism was placed on Bat Pussy's sex scenes, which have been heavily derided for their uniquely unappealing and unerotic qualities, as well as Buddy's visible impotence.[6][17] Multiple reviewers have labeled Bat Pussy "anti-porn" for its "unarousing" depiction of sex and nudity. Brad Jones of The Cinema Snob called it both "anti-porn" and "anti-sexy", while AV Maniacs not only agreed with the "anti-porn" title but also contested its categorization as pornography, as "there is no discernible '****ing' in it" and it "completely and utterly fails to elicit even the minutest amount of arousal in its viewers"
But, my award goes to United Passions on the grounds that it's not even a heroic failure, just an utterly cynical attempt at propaganda by people who should have known better. With a budget in the $25 million region, it grossed $319 on its opening day.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Passions
You lot have clearly never seen R.O.T.O.R.
Just to be controversial I will say 1917.
The stupid way they make it look like 1 scene.
The story is utter bollocks and completely unrealistic.
I've got a real contender here: Mongolian Death Worms!
It's on Amazon prime now. Watched it, well half of it with a kebab last night. Brilliantly terrible.
The greasy strangler anyone?
Nearly 50 replies and no one has said Battleship. I can only assume I’m the only person here to have tried to watch it.
Honourable mention to Kill List. Incomprehensible p!sh.
Dunkirk (the 2017 version).
I think some people are struggling with the concept of "worst film ever".
I'll continue this trend - Blade Runner. Dull, dull, dull.
Blade Runner 2049 just plain boring never watched it to the end just gave up
I think some people are struggling with the concept of “worst film ever”.
Maybe the thread should be ‘The Film I dislike the most’, because as far as I know there aren’t any film critics on here, although happy to be corrected. Just because you or I dislike a film doesn’t make it the worst film ever. (The obvious exception to that is The Manitou, see thread above) 😉
"The Ghost".
All the more notable for being a Roman Polanski film. Whatever you think of the 5-foot Pole you wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole, he's directed some excellent movies.
This one stars Ewan McGregor as a ghost writer, hired to do the autobiography of an unpopular former Prime Minister (played by Pierce Brosnan, literally doing a bad Tony Blair impression).
The dialogue will make you cringe your own skin off. The audience, watching what is supposed to be a thriller were pissing themselves laughing throughout. The plot makes about as much sense as a one-inch hospital. Ewan McGregor wanders through the whole thing looking like he's suffered a head injury and has to work out what's happening in every scene.
It's almost so bad, it's good, but, regrettably, not quite.
I think some people are struggling with the concept of “worst film ever”.
Yep. Although I think it's extremely good, I can understand people not being into Bladerunner, for example. It's well, made with a very good cast, and the plot makes sense. It's just that many people aren't into that genre of film. I personally think Saving Private Ryan is overrated, the assault on the beach was generally excellent but the rest of it was cliched and predictable. It's not terrible though, just a bit predictable. Truly horrible films (Reefer Madness, for example) are just terrible in every way - ridiculous script, crap acting, nonsensical concept.
Edit. I just remembered that I once rented Who Is Harry Kellerman and Why Is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me? because it had Dustin Hoffman in it so I assumed it would be a safe bet. My god, WTF were they thinking? Pretty sure that's the worst film I've seen by people who should be able to make a good film.
Attack of the oversexed rugsuckers from Mars?
Anyone?..
I rented it on VHS.
It was as expected. Animation quality that bagpuss creators would be ashamed of.
Crank , but it's probably just me because they did a sequel.
Highlander 2 was a troubled film and this is a complex answer,
I'm expecting revelations about the goats...
Seriously, troubled or not the end product was pish.
As for whoever suggested Troll Hunter, I thought it was great fun.
Watty is right though, lots of people suggesting films they didn't like or just trying to get a rise out of others by suggesting things like Star Wars or 1917.
Snake Eyes.
The Last Unicorn.
Highlander 2.
An eclectic selection unified only by their utter crappness.
I reckon if you’ve actually watched the whole film, you can’t say its the worst of anything. If it’s that bad you either wouldn’t watch it at all (Mrs Brown’s Boys movie)(because you just know its utter crap ) or you wouldn’t make it past the first hour - for me that’s Highlander (1), but I know people like the film, so it’s obviously not the worst ever... or Cake, with Jennifer Anniston, which would be near the top on the list of shite.
I offer no comment on idiotic or trolling suggestions, except The Greasy Strangler, which is awesome. whoever suggested it is clearly a Bullshit Artist!
I reckon if you’ve actually watched the whole film, you can’t say its the worst of anything.
I mostly agree, but then you get nonsense like Harry Kellerman which looks promising until you get to near the end and you realize that it's just pretentious nonsense dressed up as art. Instead of all the bits being individually awful, it's the totality of the thing that is awful. Quite an achievement, really.
Bruce Willis has been responsible for around 5 hours of my life being wasted, herself loves his oeuvre.
Item 1: Armageddon
Item 2: G.I. Joe
Both piles of steaming ordure.
Anyone who goes and sees Mrs Brown in a cinema loses all ability to comment on others film choices (either that or you were on a sure thing). You paid money to see that after so many TV appearances? (A one TV series programme at best).
trying to get a rise out of others by suggesting things like Star Wars or 1917.
Not really.
Although obviously not the "worst film ever" it is IMO, the worst film that has had so much critical acclaim thrust upon it. It presents itself as a historical drama, however, the story at it's core, is complete and utter nonsense. It just does not accurately reflect WW1 military practice at all.
Item 1: Armageddon
Wrong.
Liv Tyler is in it.
obviously not the “worst film ever” it is IMO, the worst film that has had so much critical acclaim thrust upon it.
So, you need the “Most overrated film ever” thread.
(start it! it’ll be a long runner!)
Anyone who goes and sees Mrs Brown in a cinema
Did anyone? would they admit to it?
Most of the films mentioned were hardly a suprise - you don't go to watch Dude wheres my car? without a fair idea its not going to be up there with Shawshank Redemption
But Prometheus...........well that was a suprise
Shit Sci-Fi/fantsy films, TV series like Battleship and Van Helsing I actually enjoy. Someone said above about the Horror channel which seems to have loads of really crappy knock of versions that looked like they were filmed, edited, and CGI from on an iphone that just makes you think why even do it.
The Road
Eyes Wide Shut. Only time ive walked out of a cinema.
With the exception of Top Gun all films with Tom Cruise in are near the top of my list
So, you need the “Most overrated film ever” thread.
(start it! it’ll be a long runner!)
Not quite.
It's because the storyline is absolute horseshit!
I don't mean in a "Saving Private Ryan - there were no Tiger Tanks in Normandy until later" kind of way or a "Fury - They would of just called in an airstrike on the SS Division", it's the worse than that.
The Blair’s Witch Project is probably the worst film I have seen at the cinema.
With the exception of Top Gun all films with Tom Cruise in are near the top of my list
He has done some rubbish, but his best movies were pretty decent. , Jerry Maguire, Born on the Fourth of July, Magnolia, Minority Report were pretty solid.
Why are people listing AAA movies? Even the shit ones have great effects, acting, cinematography or something else that saves them.
Real crap films are a whole different level.

I think the closest films with an actual budget get to being truly bad are Adam Sandler’s Netflix films. He’s actually turned his career in to that scene from South Park.
Accepting the points above, then ignoring them - any Terminator film after T2
We watched Dark Fate last night and despite it looking and sounding great, the underlying message has been milked to death.
How many times can time be re-written and all the lines from the first movie be used.
Clearly loads but I wonder if they could have done something different with the Terminator franchise as an evolution.
Early 80's watching straight to video. You've seen everything else and are forced to the low end titles.
Really, where to begin ? 😆
1.Chuck Norris.
Chuck Norris movies (at least the ones I've seen) aren't terrible movies, they're B-movies. They're entertaining enough if you're into that sort of mindless action stuff, they're not meant to compete with Kubrick etc.
showgirls and its got naked women in it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
