Worst Movies Ever

[guywithashovel]

The Strangers was really creepy. I like horror movies, and they usually don't faze me much, but that one actually did put a scare in me. During the evening after I saw it in the theater, I was in the house and almost every time I turned around, I almost expected to see one of those masked faces in one of the corners.

And yes, if the little introduction at the beginning of the movie is any indication, it was based on a true story.

It wasn't just the Paris Hiltion character, I get overall creeped out at the overall recurring theme of a lot of horror movies involving small towns in the middle of nowhere with creepy people and really creepy agendas with stranded people and strangers.

Speaking of which, The Strangers. That movie........that's based off a true story, right? What...the....hell.

Splice was pretty sick, though. Sick as in gross.

Splice *could* have been a good movie if it had figured out what sort of movie it wanted to be. But it couldn't figure out if it wanted to be quirky, tragic, Frankenstein, an actual monster movie or....what....ever the hell happened in the last 30 minutes with all the sex and rape and <shudder>

I'm surprised that so many of you hated the House of Wax movie with Paris Hilton. Maybe it wasn't the most original story ever told, and perhaps it was a bit predictable, but Paris did get impaled with a stick in it (I think it was a stick . . . been a while since I've seen it). Surely that has to give it SOME redeeming value.

I saw Piranha in the theater several months ago. The idea of fish from millions of years ago coming back to kill people is kind of interesting. But the movie just seemed like an excuse to show hordes of scantily clad college girls.

Splice was pretty sick, though. Sick as in gross.

In the comments for the Listverse entry, one person says they were throwing things at the screen cuz of the stupidity of "Middle Part"; does that sound familiar?

Oh god, "Showgirls". That was utter crap. The Simpsons even parodied it in one episode. XD

Also; "Battlefield Earth". Utter trash from start to finish. John Travolta should be ashamed of himself.

I've seen stills for HC, and other than a reflexive squick-factor over the connection, they looked pretty laughable, really.

^-.-^

I've actually seen the Human Centipede and laughed through most of it. Then again, I'm a sucker for over-the-top horror movies with crazy/gross plotlines. I have a fairly strong stomach and I believe my husband and I were eating when we first began watching the movie. It's not a good movie by any means, and I wouldn't want to watch it again, but it's one of those that I felt I needed to add to my list of "yeah, I watched that". The sequel, however, I have no desire to watch. Once was enough.

Oh, my, how on earth could I forget to mention another craptacular movie: Showgirls

First we've got a 'star' who wouldn't bare herself for the camera previously because she was a serious actress who then goes full nude for a pile of crap. Then there's the so-called protagonist, who I wanted to die an agonizing death by the end of the thing for being such a heartless, self-centered bitch. The only really decent character in the whole thing gets messed up for no reason I can figure other than because the writer couldn't figure out a better way to show off just how unlikeable the main character was.

Here's the Listverse list in question; scroll down to the bottom of the page to see the entry for Human Centipede.

Warning: Extremely Disturbing Content!!!

Don't watch the trailer if you have just eaten. I will say that I didn't dare click it; the discription alone made me feel ill. X_x

Pah, that guy was as much a surgeon as a 3 year old with Play-Doh is a sculptor. Sewing mouth to anus does not a single creature make. He'd have had to connect the digestive tracts of the 3 individuals entirely. As is, the bottom 2 would have died, anyway, from malnutrition or disease from ingesting fecal matter, whichever came first.

I could think up a better scenario in a COMA.

So yes, add Human Centipede to my list, for just plain idiocy. Scat fetish thinly disguised as a horror film. Feh on those involved. FEH, I say!

[telecom_goddess]

Please tell me you've never watched Human Centipede; that's about the most disgusting movie I've ever heard of. It was listed in a Listverse list; that's how I heard of it, and there's going to be a sequel to it out this year. Ew. X_x

I just watched PART of a trailer for that and DAMN. Siamese Triplets and bad surgeons doing bad things to people...yeah it looks fucked up.

[Lace Neil Singer]

Splice was just....messed up. Would you believe me if I told you that my bf and I were gorging ourselves on pizza and cheesesticks while watching that gross movie?

Worst movies now that I have seen... got to mention "The Legend Of Chun-Li". Urgh, that movie was putrid. All the characters were fucked up and gotten completely wrong, the acting was terrible and the storyline stunk like week old dirty socks. At least "Streetfighter" redeemed its awfulness by being somewhat funny; there is absolutely nothing to recommend "The Legend Of Chun-Li". I wasted far too much of my life watching that pile of crap that I'm never going to get back.

I liked Zombie Strippers, at least the stripping parts. The boring socio-philosophical whatever parts were lame as Hell.

The Meat Eater
Devil Dynamite
Twilight
The Punisher (with Thomas Jane as Frank)

I wasn't expecting anyone to actually KNOW Zombie Strippers

As far as House of Wax I mean the remake with that dolt Paris Hilton. Anything with her is bad. Oh and I forgot to add Glitter....didn't watch much of it but don't need to.

[telecom_goddess]

I liked the original Dumb and Dumber, that movie is one of those that cheers me up just when I need it (I had a really horrible work week one week, oh hell, any week, but this week was bad and they were playing D&D at the gym and it totally lifted my spirits to work out to that movie).

There are some other really *out there* movies, moreso low budget or straight to DVD, that I see at the movie store, and I just wonder if more people need to be institutionalized for their crazy ideas.

Did you mean The Rage, Carrie 2? Because I don't remember a remake of Carrie, in The Rage, Rachel is Carrie's half sister, her father being Ralph White who was also Carrie White's father. That movie sucked, though, I will agree with you on that.

No I don't mean the Rage Carrie 2 that was ok. I mean the remake of Carrie....I saw a small bit of it on tv the other night and left the room in disgust.

I was actually considering starting a thread on this very topic. I don't know about worst, but when I think of movies that were painful to sit through, these are the ones I think of.

Master of Disguise: Maybe not the worst, but by far the most annoying movie I sat through. The jokes sucked, the plot was stupid, and there was not one character I didn't want to punch in the face. I think the line "This is what you are doing, this is what I want you to do" sums up my thoughts on the movie perfectly.

All pokemon movies: Now I love pokemon. I was obsessed with the card game when I was a kid. I also loved the video games, and I gotta admit, it's a unique concept. But the anime was simple horrible, and since it was probably butchered by 4kids, had to have been aimed at a much younger audiance than I was at the time. But despite the lameness of the show, it was still pokemon and for those die hard fans like myself, I couldn't say no to it.

The movies are a different story. They tried way too hard to be something epic, but considering the one dementional characters of the show, they failed, failed EPICALLY. It's not the titanic, it's fucking pokemon! It's about collecting little monsters and fighting with them. It cannot be taken that seriously. And the ending to the first movie was the most laughably awful ending to any movie I've ever seen. LAME!

LOTR: I didn't read the books so I'm judging this from a pure movie standpoint. And really, from a movie standpoint, it's not that bad. The battle scenes are cool and the plot's a good idea. My problem is that is dragged on and on and on. The first 2 movies were 3 hours each, but the last one was FOUR HOURS LONG! That's TEN HOURS TOTAL!! I have a hard enough time sitting through movies as it is, but this took the cake. Especially since there were many scenes of them just sitting around talking or staring at the ring. If you're make me sit through your movie, FUCKING DO SOMETHING EXCITING!!

And the worst piece of shit I ever sat through was....

Dancer in the Dark: Movie I had to see for a film class unfortunately. This movie was everything I hate in a movie.
-Excessive melodrama: Check!
-Shoddy camera work: Check!
-Horrible musical numbers: Check!
-Characters making dumb, contrived decisions for the sake of drama: Check!
-Mind numbingly depressing mood: Damn straight!

It was just an unpleasent movie. The only thing that was missing was excessively graphic violence. And while I'm sure that was the intent of the creators, that doesn't change the fact that it was unpleasent and I hated sitting through it. When I see a movie, I want to be entertained, not frusturated, annoyed, bored, and depressed. This movie did the latter for me so I have to put it at number 1 for the worst movie I have ever seen in my life.
