I think it was called Cop & 1/2, he dared me to make it through it and The Punnisher (the newer one).

In the same genre, The Apple.

I wanted to shoot the stupid, self-absorbed parents who really deserved to be dead. I found that movie to be terribly sad.

Plan 9 from Alpha Centauri is so bad as to be good....

next has to be Steve McQueen's 'The Blob'


and for films that entirely miss the point.... the original 50's version of '1984' with Peter Cushing.

I have wanted to see that version of 1984 again for a very long time. I hope that the John Hurt & Richard Burton version is going to be re-released on DVD. The 2003 DVD release is selling for $45 and upwards on amazon.com.

The original version of The Blob starring Steve McQueen (and made right here in SE Pennsylvania) is a work of near brilliance. All of the sequels and remakes have sucked.

Robot Monster.
An alien that is a gorrilla costume with a divers helmet using an intergalactic communication device that blows bubbles?

Psycho - The remake blew dog cock.
The original was a masterpiece.

I thought "The Blair Witch" sucked donkey dick from Hell with AIDS.
Ready To Rumble - WTF?

And I thought "The Passion of the Christ" was a really well thought-out porn comedy, but others disagree.

Interview With the Vampire - my ex sat through it believing I had enjoyed the book (nope) I sat through it because he was a horror fan and I thought he was enjoying it.

In fact both of us would have been happy to walk out of the cinema after 20 minutes - the only time this has happened to me.

But then I enjoyed quite a few of the films nominated on here - I even bought Starship Troopers on DVD.... Maybe I should read the book now?

STARSHIP TROOPERS WAS NOMINATED!?

Great fuckin' movie. The book was a thousand times better, but still, it was a great action/scifi movie.

I wouldn't say Starship Troopers was the worst movie I've ever seen, but it's quite a stretch to call it "great."

Yes, the book was amazing, but the movie? That slime trailing bloated rat-fuck gastropod of a movie was *anything* but great. I'll give it a point or two for decent CGI, but otherwise, that thing just made me want to vomit. I'd rather roll around in a vat of feral porcupines than see that, that...

ugh, excuse me. I have to stop now...

Mom and Dad Save the Universe, or something like that. An idiotic flick about some flying car that takes people to planet Spango. I don't really remember much, it's been a while since I saw it and vowed to never watch it again.

"Mom and Dad Save The Universe" IDIOTIC!?!

HOW DARE YOU!

HOW FUCKING DARE YOU!

How can any movie with a flying car and John Lovitz be...

Flying car...

John Lovitz...

John...

Lovitz...

Oh God, my brain is melting...

Please kill me...

Maybe you have a point, PizzaMonkey.

'Til There Was You (this one, since there are actually several movies by that title.)

SOOO painfully boring. At least when I'm seeing a movie I hate, I can get into actively hating it. This movie just gave me a headache.

although his first post apocalyptic flick, A boy and his dog was pretty campy and despite the long build up to a cheap pun at the end, I found it enjoyable. I may have been eating shrooms though...
