Freddy got fingered is probably the worst movie I've ever seen.
Steel is pretty Terrible. Judd Nelson was the best thing in that movie.
I think its funny that the common denominator is Shaq.
Meet the Spartans had no redeemable qualities whatsoever, ( except maybe the pit of death scene, I remember chuckling)
A lot of those parody movies that don't know the meaning of parody (Date movie, Superhero movie, epic movie, Scary Movie after the second one ect)
Meet Dave also sucked. HARD

Sucker Punch is the only one I can think of off the top of my head. How I managed to sit through the whole thing is beyond me.

Here's the thing about Suckerpunch... What did people expect this movie to be? Because a TON of people i've spoke to about this all have the same conversation with me:

"Suckerpunch was garbage! It looked so awesome in the trailers..."
"Well, what were you expecting?"
"I don't know. The trailers looked awesome. Hot girls, mechs, dragons, steampunk nazis..."
"Yeah. And the movie didn't have that in spades?"
"Well, yeah, it did but it all sucked!"
"I'll ask again, what were you expecting?"
"...I don't know.."
"Were you seriously expecting a good story that combines all those elements? And directed by Zack Snyder?"
"Obviously not."
"So...?"
"...I don't know!"

It baffles me, I guess. Did I like it? Myeh. For what it was, it was fine. Kinda fun. I mean in the first 20 minutes we got two music videos, that was pretty different and interesting. Zach's a great visual storyteller(and not much else, to be honest) so I thought this movie only played to his strengths.

Bah. Sorry for the rant I'm not trying to defend the movie; to each their own. But I'm just curious how SO many people were disappointed with it. I just don't know what else they could have expected other than what they got.

I can think of three times when I actually wanted to get up and walk out of a movie: When a Stranger Calls, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and Watchmen. I just wanted to die in my seat, so I could leave.

To be honest, I'm sure I've seen worse stuff on TV or Netflix, but I guess that wouldn't upset me in such a memorable way.

Not really the worst movie I've ever seen but Dark Knight Rises was the worst I've ever felt in a theater.

Man of Steel was another one. Bummed me out and I was completely zoned out around the part where he fights the spider robot drill thing.

I felt a bit like that in MoS. So much fighting that by the time the last battle began, I was like, "More? I wanna go home..." Definitely felt better the second time, though.

A lot of the "so bad their good" flicks, Plan 9, Terror Of Tiny Town, Manos: The Hands of Fate, Birdemic, The Room, Abraxas: Guardian of the Galaxy. Good times.

Ive seen bad movies but theyre more funny than awful because theyre so stupid.

There is one movie I truly hate, Close Encounters of the Third Kind. I know its considered great and all but that was the most worthless 2+ hours Ive sat through.

In short...its far too much buildup for little to no ending if it can even be called that because not one miserable thing is ever explained. Not even vague interpretation.

Most of the time I'm able to avoid bad movies either by reading what critics commented about it or from word of mouth from friends and acquaintances.

One movie I went to where I was bored beyond measure, and where the plot was thin and insipid was The 13th Warrior (1999). I think there was so much enthusiasm about Antonio Banderas after the successful, The Mask of Zorro in 1998, a lot of people assumed The 13th Warrior would be just as great but it wasn't.

...I'm sure there are others, but I would have to dig deep in my mind for them.

The Michael Bay Transformers movies are terrible, just plain terrible with little to no redeemable qualities.

Pearl Garbour is another train wreck, the first American Godzilla, the Silent Hill movies and the Resident Evil flicks.

Yeah, Ive noticed that. Video game movie adaptations are almost always terrible, because they miss the point and appeal of the video game in question. and when there is one that might be good, it never gets made.

There was a Castlevania movie in the works, but they gave up on that one.

Yeah, but usually they often are enjoyable in a "so bad it's funny" but Silent Hill and Resident Evil just makes me groan.

All the Friedberg/Seltzer movies are horrible, but the worst of them all has to be Disaster Movie. It was just painful to watch. Easily the worst movie I've ever seen.

Dragonball Evolution and The Last Airbender were frustrating for me to watch as a fan of their respective shows. Say what you will about Michael Bay and George Lucas, but at least they know how to direct and shoot action sequences.

A Good Day To Die Hard made me ashamed to be a fan of the franchise and action movies in general.

Batman and Robin is comedy gold. It is so awful and poorly made, that it's hilarious.

Last Airbender: Though I'll admit I'm not a die-hard fan of the show, this movie annoyed me in how not only was it a poor adaptation of the source material, but just a bad film in general. Wooden acting, bad pacing, little-to-no character development, and just really below average special effects. I know all of that makes it sound like it's a laughably bad movie, but even if you laugh throughout the whole time, it gets a bit depressing. And I just love how it ends with a cliffhanger. The perfect example of M. Night (or Nick, whoever made the decision) counting the chickens before they hatch. While I recall hearing the film did make enough profit at the box office, it wasn't enough to green-light a sequel, though the blacklash was probably more than enough to scare them away from doing one anyway.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs: Yeah, I'm probably the only one who didn't really fall in love with this movie despite hearing so many people saying it was good. Wasn't a fan of the animation or the character models. Too exaggeratedly expressive for my liking. The characters weren't very likable or interesting, and the jokes, can't remember one. Didn't even bother with the sequel.

Man I followed the preproduction of Silent Hill like a HAWK. I was so damn certain it was going to be the one that broke the stigma of video game movies.

Then I saw it

^This! What were they thinking? oh wait, yeah, money

Jack and Jill was pretty terrible, I love Adam Sandler when he's working with Drew Barrymore but his films without her are getting worse!

Along the lines of bad movies made from video games- Max Payne. I couldn't even finish it... just..... couldn't. I have no idea what they thought the games were about. But the movie was just ..... I just want to forget that I tried to watch it. "Tahiti is a magical place."

On the subject of video game movies, House of the Dead maybe one of the worst ever made. It was poorly acted, sloppily written, and horribly shot.
