How About The 5 Worst Movies Ever

We have a thread about the 5 best movies and it started me thinking about the movies I couldn't stand to watch.

Some of this stuff I did not make it through.

1. The Razors Edge (Bill Murrays 1st attempt at a serious role)
2. Slingblade. (HUH???? I think I am actually dumber from watching it.)
3. Meatballs II (first movie I walked ever walked out of)
4. That Gulf War Movie w/Meg Ryan as a Huey Pilot.
5. Peggy Sue Got Married. (My wife loves this movie and we own it but every time it's on and I see and hear Nicholas Cage talk it almost drives me to violence)

Honorable mentions that I did not put on my list:

Anything made in the last 5 years with Lou Diamond Phillips.
Anything that has Michael J. Fox in the military or as cop.

The Haunting (what a waste of Liam Neeson)

The hollowman (the Kevin Bacon movie...hmm, let's greenlight a movie around a rape scene with an invisible guy...yeah!)

Any Jean Claude Van Damme movie. Timecop especially, or the one where he punches a snake...dumB!

There are SOOO many horrible movies...I'll pick on bad movies that a bunch of people actually enjoyed (I'd love to know where these idiots live, btw):

Pretty Woman (obvious)
Anger Management (what was Jack thinking???)
Battlefield Earth (sweet jesus...)
JFK (his accent...omg)
Daredevil (red tights = sexual ambiguity to the MAX!)

3. Waterworld (only movie I ever walked out of)

I just thought the acting was horrible, and that some of the lines were WAY cheezy. Such as when that one guy asks the Rock's character, "Will you be the one, to stand alone, against the pharoah?" Or something to that effect.

Maybe it just wasn't my cup of tea. I did enjoy the previous 2 Mummys though.

Yeah the village was pretty bad, I hate movies that try to "fool the audience" with some gimmicky ending.

Worst movie i saw and walked out on was
"Kull the conqueror, even if it did have Tia Carerre...It stunk!

At the top of my list has to be Broken Lizard's Club Dread. What a piece of ****. The Jean Claude Van Damme movie where he's a karate master and the final fight takes place in a ring that's in the shape of a flattened U. You know where he gets blinded and screams a whole lot? I think that was Bloodsport. And Street Fighter.....yeah. Nearly all MTV movies except for Napoleon Dynamite and Beavis and Butthead Do America.

That movie is so bad. I thought it would be alright, but I probably laughed one time watching it.

Home Alone 4 is probably the worst movie I have seen.
Or maybe Going Overboard. Horrible movie.
I have seen so many bad movies I should be able to pick 5.. Maybe I'll add more later.

You know the movie sucked, but it was hillarious how they used the heavy metal soundtrack. I was cracking up the whole way through that film.

You'd be amazed how many bad movies you find when your guitarist goes through the "cult" section of Hollywood Video and you agree to watch them.

From there:
1. Scarecrow Gone Wild (even if it DID have Ken Shamrock in it)
2. Cheerleader Massacre
3. Miner's Masacre (worst movie EVER!!!)

From elsewhere:
Napolean Dynamite (how am I supposed to like a movie where I want to beat the crap out of all but three people? Who greenlit that piece of crap?)
Any Disney direct-to-video sequel. Seven months ago, I wouldn't care. Then I fell for a girl who grew up in Dine-heim and for some reason rents and buys all these things. WHY ARE THESE THINGS MADE? They are HORRIBLE!!! gah.....

"Axe swinging through fiery clouds w/heavy metal intro"...I think that was the best part of the movie then it went all downhill....
