    Travolta, DeVito... just hated the characters, the posing, the dialogue, the premise, the violence with the jokes, but most of all the sunglasses on everyone... if it was meant to be ironic or post-ironic it didn't work on me... I just felt stupid sitting in front of it.

    Forrest Gump is too well done in many ways to qualify as truly bad, but I don't want to see it ever again unlike pretty much every other Tom Hanks movie.

    I had the misfortune of trying to watch 'Nacho Libre' a few days ago, and I don't know how it did not make the list. Truly horrible.

    I liked it - I went in knowing exactly what I was getting: silliness.

    I've seen about 30 of them, and as usual with these types of lists, the author has apparently not seen many movies in their lifetime, because there are much, much, MUCH worse films out there.

    Highander 2 is not bad in it's restored version and I like Streetfighter, but that might just be my kung-fu chick fetish talking. The rest look pretty bad - a lot of sequels and comedies. I guess comedy is hard...

    I think we're all agreed that Jaws : The Revenge is Michael Caine's finest hour

    Here's a vote for "Meet The Fockers". How could such an all-star cast turn out this (IMO) atrocity?

    I have to admit that I didn't see it, but since I thought that Meet the Parents was a steaming pile of horse excrement, I would not subject myself to the sequels. I know some people liked that movie, I just found it irritating.

    I enjoyed 50 Shades of Black.

    The only one I'd remove is The Fog remake - it's by no means a great film but I think it's ok and certainly watchable, no way should it be on a list with films as bad as this.

    The worst film I have ever seen is Jack Reacher Never Go Back so that should be on the list. If anyone says they enjoyed that film it is my test whether they are an idiot or not.

    I'm very surprised that THIS movie wasn’t on the list:

    It was just... plain terrible.

    It was initially titled "99" but you're right ; the title should be changed. Too bad one only has access to changing it for the first 30 min. I'll ask a moderator.
    Apparently, you do enough to read and post in the thread. ;)

    Watch the original ; the French movie Le Dîner de Cons. Absolutely hilarious.

    I did find Dinner for Schmucks entertaining. Silly non sequitur-ish humor makes me laugh.

    Fixed. All such lists have Recency Bias.
     
  15. Went to the first page, then clicked next. Nothing really happened, but I saw activity in the background....ad blocker, etc.

    Closed the link. Obviously (IMO) doing things I didn't want. Any of these things where they want you to open page after page of Ads (or worse) really ticks me off. I'll just read the comments on this thread.

    If the list doesn't include Ishtar, something is very, very wrong.

    I didn't see any of the top 10, but I've seen at least 35 from the rest of the list, and at least 5 in the theater.

    I went to summer camp in the 80s and we would watch movies when it rained, that's where I saw a lot of them, including Supergirl and Howard the Duck, among others.

    Santa Claus Conquers the Martians tops that list for me.

    Not gonna click 11 times just to feed advertisers.

    If anyone cares to paste the whole list, that would be great.

    I'd somehow never even heard of this movie, but just reading the synopsis online made my head hurt. How does something like that get greenlit?

    I can hardly believe, I had only seen three of these - to my credit, only one which I actually paid to see in a theater! Other two were guilty curiosities on cable. Knowing what usually shows up on "low-hanging fruite"-lists like these, I was prepared to not having seen a one of 'em.
    On the other hand, shame on me for taking the (click-)bait, and having scrolled through some eyeball-hungry content-creator's crap-ass site for some semblance of "authority" in the first place. :doh:
