50 films I REALLY didn't like. In rough order from "so bad I want to gouge out my mind's eye" to "almost bearable if I was only half conscious".

Bloodsport III (1997,  R)
Bloodsport III
This is honestly and truly the WORST film EVER made (with the possible exception of the fourth instalment, which I didn't know existed until recently). If you have a fascination with truly bad films give this Z grade flick a try, and it might just become your personal worst film ever made too. It starts off ok as a laugh at how ridiculous it all is but even that wears off pretty quickly. I haven't seen any of the other Bloodsport films, but even fans of the first 2 seem to be mostly mystified by how such a steaming pile of crap was created.

Scary Movie 2 (2001,  R)
Scary Movie 2
I concede that I didn't mind the first one, and the third instalment isn't a complete waste of space, but number 2 is close to my most despised film ever. So stupid. So not funny. So crap.

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! (1978,  PG)
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!
I couldn't sit through all of this. It goes for the 'it's so bad it's good' B horror movie and just ends up being so bad it's still stinks. Barely a chuckle.

Miami Vice (2006,  R)
Miami Vice
Wow, what an absolute stinker! Michael Mann is a talented director and really shows off his ability to make the violence seem real, but unfortunately everything else about the movie is bad. To say that I just couldn't care less about the characters or what the hell was going on would be a wild understatement. Do avoid this one.

Michael Jackson - Moonwalker (1988,  G)

Godzilla, King of the Monsters! (1956,  Unrated)
Godzilla, King of the Monsters!
After watching the original Japanese version 'Gojira' I was interested to know just how much the Americans butchered the film when they made their own version. The answer is, a hell of a lot. The scenes with Raymond Burr are spliced into footage from the original in the most stupid and contrived ways, and it's often completely obvious that the footage comes from two different films. What's more, the American commentary is patronising toward the Japanese people and the overdubs are terrible. It's such a messy, heavy handed attempt at changing the film for an American audience. Chances are I may have been kinder if I'd seen this version first, but as a contrast to the original it is possibly the best example of the Western world getting hold of something and completely fucking it up.

National Lampoon's Van Wilder (Party Liaison) (2002,  R)
National Lampoon's Van Wilder (Party Liaison)
The day I watched this was the day gross out jokes officially crossed the line for me. That thing with the dog wasn't even the slightest bit funny. Just horrible.
8
American Wedding (2003,  R)
American Wedding
I give the first American Pie a lot of credit, even though the number of crap gross out films that it spawned make me wish it had never been made. The sequel was ok too. But this one just made me sad. Fucking hated it.

Not Another Teen Movie (2001,  R)
10
Wrong Turn (2003,  R)
Wrong Turn
Awful movie. Just awful. It makes me sad to see this has a 3.5 star average, and Wolf Creek (a far better example of the genre) only has 3.
11
Thirteen Ghosts (13 Ghosts) (2001,  R)
12
The Game Plan (2007,  PG)
The Game Plan
Saw this on the plane. Not surprisingly it's pretty awful, but I suppose I've endured worse.
13
27 Dresses (2008,  PG-13)
27 Dresses
A chick flick through and through. But more to the point it just isn't a very good one.
14
Rush Hour 3 (2007,  PG-13)
Rush Hour 3
Some of the action scenes are pretty cool, and there are a few good laughs, but mostly it's actually pretty dull.
15
American Pie 5: The Naked Mile (2006,  R)
American Pie 5: The Naked Mile
I pretty much wish I'd never seen this. It starts off bearable, but as the jokes get more and more ridiculous (and trust me they do), they entire movie also gets more cringe worthy. It actually might be a competitor with Cruel Intentions 2 for the "descending a movie franchise into nothing but soft porn" award. That's enough American Pie!

Music and Lyrics (2007,  PG-13)
Music and Lyrics
Pretty awful. I was in a bad mood walking into the cinema, and i was almost ready to break something walking out.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End (2007,  PG-13)
Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End
What is with this current trend of releasing a 3rd movie in a series and cramming it way too full of crap. Like the third instalments of Spiderman and Xmen, this is just way too long, and way too convoluted. Really disapointing.

Shin seiki Evangelion Gekijô-ban: Shito shinsei (Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death & Rebirth) (1995,  Unrated)
Shin seiki Evangelion Gekijô-ban: Shito shinsei (Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death & Rebirth)
Don't bother. From what I can tell the first half is an attempt to pack the entire series into an hour as a catch up. It doesn't really work, because I still hardly had any idea what was going on, and if you've watched the series you'll surely be a bit bored. and the second part is repeated in the 'End of Evangelion' film anyway.

Best leave this one to the kids.

You, Me and Dupree (2006,  PG-13)
You, Me and Dupree
Quite awful. Wilson's characte is more lame and irritating than genuinely funny, and Matt Dillon's is dead boring.
22
House On Haunted Hill (1959,  Unrated)
House On Haunted Hill
As the synopsis says, it's not scary and it doesn't make much sense.

Guess Who (2005,  PG-13)
Guess Who
Saw this on a plane so i might have been feeling a bit cynical and tired, but I don't think I laughed once.

Bewitched (2005,  PG-13)
Bewitched
I somehow managed to convince myself that this was going to be decent. The concept seemed kind of clever, and I'd heard some reviews say it was a good parody of Hollywood etc ... unfortunately it's terrible. Now I have the embarassment of being reminded by my girlfriend every few weeks that I chose to hire this out :p
31
The Wedding Planner (2001,  PG-13)
32
Secret Window (2004,  PG-13)
33
Cellular (2004,  PG-13)
Cellular
Quite terrible. Sad to see Mr Macy stoop to this :p ... Maybe it's just me, but I thought Kim's acting in this was THE MOST cringe worthy peice of cinema I've ever sat through.
34
The Rundown (Welcome to the Jungle) (2003,  PG-13)
35
Cold Mountain (2003,  R)
Cold Mountain
This and 21 grams are my two favourite films to tell everyone how over-rated they were.
36
Swordfish (2001,  R)
37
21 Grams (2003,  R)
21 Grams
Very disapointing.
38
Jeepers Creepers (2001,  R)
Jeepers Creepers
In regards to movies that take unexpected turns in the middle and seem to become a different film altogether, this is probably only second to 'Dusk till Dawn' ... and in this case it is very much a bad thing. The first half is a fairly decent thriller where the bad guy is an unseen truck driver ... then suddenly a giant monster shows up and we're left with one of the stupidest schlock horror films imaginable.

Children of the Corn (1984,  R)

Revenge of the Nerds IV: Nerds in Love (1994,  R)

Revenge of the Nerds (1984,  R)
Revenge of the Nerds
The nerds' musical number at the end is quite memorable, but mostly I thought this was a waste of time.
44
My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006,  PG-13)
My Super Ex-Girlfriend
Poor. Doesn't know whether it wants to be a sex-romp or a Disney-esque family comedy ... and either way it's just not that funny or charming. Also, Wilson doesn't hold up as a leading man too well.
45
Bee Movie (2007,  PG)
Bee Movie
Didn't really enjoy it. It's all a bit too silly, and I didn't find it that funny.

Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008,  R)
Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay
I had some hope for this, because I didn't mind the first one and the escape from Guantanamo Bay concept seemed like a good one. Turns out it's a big pile of meh. One of my favourite things about the first one were the jokes about the ethnicity of the main characters, which would poke fun at the ignorance of white America. They kind of went a bit overboard with this one though, especially in the first half, and it stops being funny after a while. The gross-out jokes are really turned up a notch too (almost every bodily fluid shows up at some point), and it just felt unecessary to me. Also, a lot of the things that the movies makes fun of are so serious (rape in detention centres etc.) that I found it hard to laugh. If you're going to try that kind of thing you've got to make sure you do it really well, otherwise the audience is going to feel uncomfortable ... and Harold and Kumar just don't have what it takes to pull it off.

I thought this was kinda Crapola. I can't really be bothered explaining why.
