What is the worst movie you have ever seen?

Think that title would have to be handed down to Thankskilling

The Happening is easily the worst movie I have ever seen.

" V For Vendetta, Riddles of the Sphinx or Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. "

Without a doubt the worst movie I've ever seen is The Happening. Holy shit, what a travesty.

There are too many bad films to name but for reference i am going to guess the following sucked:

Starring Kate Hudson, except Almost Famous
Made by Tyler Perry
Anything that includes a Wayans brother
Any remake of slasher films from the 70's-80's
Any SNL 10 minute sketch made into movies. There are a few exceptions, but for every Wayne's World, there are a dozen Ladies Man.
Starring Jack Black, for the most part excluding of course School o Rock and Orange County, but  would someone please help him pick some more good scripts.
Anything with the word Twilight, or Transformers in the title.
You have a chance with a 2 in the title,  a very slim chance for a good time with 3 ,and just send me your money when paying to see a 4.
Poster and promotion is quoted by someone you never heard of as, "The ______ movie of the year!"
A lot of Stephen King book adaptations, and Julie Roberts movies are like a box of chocolates, you get the real deal, or just plain shit.
Video Game adaptations.
Pre 2000  Comic book adaptations.
"Dance", "Sing", or "Married" is in the title

That probably knocks out a couple hundred movies. Hopefully that helps.

I sifted through this thread just to see what you'd say. May I ask why V for Vendetta? "

Probably Thankskilling or Pterodactyl (starring Coolio - for real). Actually, Pterodactyl was so horrible I felt compelled to buy it.

Cheaply made, poorly directed and bad acting make it a bad film but it's the horrible political message that just makes it super gross. "

Poorly acted eh?

Cheaply made eh?

As for poorly directed, the movie flows wonderfuly, and as a fan of the book it the events are re-arranged and potrayed in a great way squeezing the story into a resonable runtime.

Yeah that message is sure disgusting all right, how could anyone believe in such a thing?

Transformers: Rise of the Fallen

Mystery Team

Samurai Cop?

  

well lets see  Cannibal women and the advacado jungle of death. GI Joe, American Kickboxer 5, Nick fury agent of shield,  you guys should be thankful if Avatar, Kill Bill  and even Battlefield earth are the worse movies you've seen. I've seen stuff that makes those look like a hitchcock did them.  Wraith!? Malibu Bikini shop!?  We can do better here! Postman pftt thats not bad.

Sorry I had to sign up just to say start diggin the deep well for this. THere are much worse movie out there then these. Well Outside the turkish start wars... that may be the worst movie ever made anywhere.

 Including Mannequin 3.  I almost put down Hamburger the motion picture but that was kind of funny...

Hey Giant bomb BTW first post.

" Anything made by the "Scary Movie"-people. They need to stop. "

kudo's for samurai cop now we're talking worse movies!

@HandsomeDead:

District 9 is a far superior movie to Avatar

I just saw the Green Hornet. Don't know if it is the worst movie I have seen or if the disappointment is just fresh in my mind.

" Mine would be Battlefield Earth with John Travolta. "

" I know which is actually the worst movie ever made. Here it is, the death of cinima. (yep, that bad.)

  

  
It is so nightmarishly bad that I could actually grab a piece of paper, puke on it, and it would still be better than this for the fact that puking on just a piece of paper accurately takes some skill. (sick skill... no pun intended.) Everything horrible you can think of a movie is within this one, but 10 times more cheesier and moronic than humanly thought possible. If aliens ever find our planet a total wasteland and saw that this movie was the only surviving culture of our planet, they would thank God for getting rid of us so they wouldn't have been subjected to this awful quality of movies.

Meet the Spartans was pretty fuckin' bad.

@HandsomeDead:

I respectfully disagree with you, as District 9 is one of the most original movies I've seen in years. I hold no interest in ever watching pocahontas  in space ever again. I thought it was an ok movie, and worked better as a technical marvel than it will ever work as a great movie. However you're entitled to you opinion and we must obviously share much different tastes.

Also, I was far more impressed with District 9 visuals anyway, Avatars only stronghold. Last time I saw human actor CGI character interaction that impressive and rasing the bar would be back in the Jurassic Park/Alien days (aware that cameron did Alien)

I'm just of the impression that Avatar is one of Cameron's  worst movies and nothing really special.

@HandsomeDead:

District 9 concepts and themes are far more original than anything I saw in Avatar, and was shot for pennies in comparison. The ending of District 9, the way the story was presented, the overall qualtiy of the story alone as well as the outstanding special effects bring the aliens to life as well as the films climax, all add up to a movie that I'll always remember and will always hold as one of the greatest movies ever made.

You can simplify District 9 down to alien persecution but that is really far from fair at all. Sure that's a major selling point in the plot, but on top of that we have the relationship between the main character, his wife, and her fathers motives to allow him to die in order for Humans to be able to use Alien weaponary/profits. We have his unfortunate fate, his fight for survival, the promise left to him that he will be cured, and his desire to return to his wife.

Avatar on the other hand, while far, far from a bad movie, was just a little slopping in some parts to really make it memorable for me at all. It was awesome in theaters, and the blu-ray is gorgeous but when it comes down to it Avatar is a lot of flash. I never really believe the relationship between the dude in some alien copied body and a native, the movie runs a little long,  the dragon flight scenes are amazing, the world is well crafted, the writing is rather poor, the acting is good considering the mediocre script, and the films climax reminded me a lot of Final Fantasy 9.

While watching Avatar I was also never really convinced what I was watching was real. The contrast between cgi and live actors was pretty blantant. I felt for the aliens in District 9 because they were so believably human it almost seemed like an impossible feat. They crafted the aliens in district 9 in the light of a species trapt on earth with no way home. You feel for them, and it's one of the many ways the film succeds on multiple levels.

" The original Last House on the Left. "

Yeah, that was pretty bad. Although I recall the rape scene was "well done" because it disturbed the shit outta me. "

Transformers 2
The Hebrew Hammer (If you could even call this a movie)
Legend


I can't pick just one...

As much as I don´t care about the Story and the plot holes I have to say the Transformers cartoon movie is pretty shitty. But hey, it´s Transformers!

District 9 and Avatar are both good movies.  Arguing which one is better is kind of pointless, especially in a thread about the worst movie ever seen.

@HandsomeDead:
Points taken, and I respect you can stand on your opinion. Only a few things I want to add though is

1. The faux documentery I thought was an excellent way to tell the back story without stretching boring runtime. And I feel the way it "ditched" it was intentional, to move on with the story of the films characters.

2. I also feel the movie justified it's action packed ending, it built and built towards it it's whole running time. Also, the ending shot with him making the "trash flower" is imo one of the greatest shots I've ever seen. The alien father and son's relationship and their desire to get home, on top of his desire to be reunited with his wife all seemed like justifiable reasons to fight their way to what they both wanted. Also the alien "evolution" throughout the film was expertly done and it you could feel the change as the minutes passed on.

3. I think the 'serious' theme and setting of D9 also worked into it's favor, just on the perspective that what was happening in D9 seemed a lot more real, almost plausable, and the characters plights are by no means light and happy in anyway. Now, in Avatars defence, it loses no points for not being totally serious or real/plausable because it wasnt going for that, and it worked great as a fantasy/action movie.

I just feel, that 10 years from now, D9 will be remembered for it's story, acting, and emotional character bonds, and Avatar will be remembered for it's ingenius technology and 3d camera tech that was used to shoot it.

@Parkingtigers:

I hate Twilight as much as the next guy, but in the films defense, they're actually a step above the complete and utter waste of paper the novels are.

Not counting getting drunk with a bunch of friends and riffing throughout the entire movie like I did for Showgirls, The Happening, and most recently Boondock Saints 2. 
I would say willingly it would be Garbage Pail Kids which I blame on a horrible video store that had free kid's rentals and an endless supply of bad 80's kid's movies.

Catwoman by a mile

Sucker Punch

Eragon.
Walked out of the theatre.

" Gattaca.  "

I cant really think of many on the top of my head, first one that springs to mind is Resident Evil Degeneration...just because it bored the shit outta me

Hack.

Some cheap horror film about a bunch of kids on an island being killed off to make a snuff movie.

skyline

" The Fantastic Four. "

The Room.

On a more even scale - Equilibrium or the Polish Palimpsest.

" Mine would be Battlefield Earth with John Travolta. "

Either Uwe Boll's "House of the Dead" or  "Beat" with Courtney Love, can't even remember how I ended up watching that one but I just wanted to hang myself it was so bad.

Legion was just a horrible movie.
