another WORSE movie thread!!!

[sm]

Yentel.

I still ain't figured how I got roped into attending that movie. Free Tickets perhaps...
There were NO guns at all , lest not in the parts before we walked out.

Much nicer rest of the evening, both of us snuggled on the couch and me reading Ruark's The Old Man and the Boy aloud.

Pump shotguns, covey of quail, dogs, missing quail, getting hung up in a fence...

I just saw the WORSE movie EVER. in my life.. EVER. EVER EVER..

TRIPLE X "2" State of the Union.. <-- do NOT rent/buy/touch or breath near it.

Funny litte aside...I know three people who were exteras in the scenes that were shot in DC. My sister, her best friend and best friend's fiancee...they were students at Catholic University (located in SE D.C.) and needed money so they were exteras...I've been tempted to rent it just so i can freeze frame it during those scenes to see if i can spot them. BUt thay warned me and all their friends that it was a bad movie even beofre filming was finnished for it.

bad movies

House of the Dead
The Visitor
H.G. Well's War of the Worlds (Timothy Hines of Seattle version)
Gates of Hell (Fulchi's Fear in the City of the Living Dead)

remakes of House of Wax, The Haunting of Hill House, Texas Chainsaw Massacre

I also need to tatoo on my ticket paying hand "Avoid Uwe Boll"

Absolute Aggression (made in someone's back yard I think)
Existanse (I think the spelling is right)

Nuff Said

The Haunting Of Hill House

A true Bowser...'74 - '75 I believe. Recall having to record promos for that locally, as the studio had no jing for national radio spots! RRRRUUUFF!

Take Care

I'm surprised no one mentioned "Brokeback Mountain". No I didn't see it, but it wouldn't surpirse me if this crowd liked it.

 

[Manedwolf]

Boy, you guys do watch some bad movies. One of the worst films I ever saw (and yes I know it is critically renowned...I just hated it) was "Boys Don't Cry" with Hilary Swank. I also walked out on "Dumb and Dumber". I also agree with foghornl who mentioned "Mars Attacks"...talk about disappointing. If you want to see campy alien invasion done right rent "Spaced Invaders" or "Killer Clowns from Outer Space". Shame on Sergeant Saber..."Napolean Dynamite" was awesome...it reminded me so much of my childhood that it creeped me out.

"Santa Claus Conquers the Martians".

So bad it can cause head trauma to watch, I think. But funny.

 

[CWatson]

Surprised nobody metioned Cabin Fever.

With so many bad gun - related big budget films how can you pick on cult faves like "Hell Comes To Frog Town" or "Chopper Chicks In Zombietown?" Next thing you know you guys will pick on "They Live."

"Manos, Hands of Fate" was slightly less excruciating on MST3K than the Italian zombie drama "I Spit On Your Grave" (which promised free airsickness bags to all who attened... we walked out 10 minutes into this badly dubbed hooror romp filmed in high chroma 16mm to watch F/X with Bryan Brown... and it wasn't too bad.

WORST firearms film ever? I'm gonna call it a toss up between the Richard Chamberlain/Sharon Stone version of "King Solomons Mines" or the Lou Gosset/Chuck Norris flop that was "Firewalker".

Norris lost points on that one.

 

[SLCDave]

Sheesh, what about Hell comes to Frogtown? Clearly your standards have not yet encountered some of the films from down in the sub-basement of cinematic gunslinging.

I thought I was the only one that lived through that movie!?! Roddy Piper at his cinematic best!

I'd have to say the wost movies I've ever seen are tied: Frogtown and Leprechaun in the Hood (the 5th Leprechaun movie), although I DO have to appreciate the weapons stockpile in Ice-T's 'fro.

Split Second

Rugter Hauer and Kim Catrall

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105459/

I have no idea who the IMDB reviewers were, or what they are smoking, but the movie they reviewed as a "passable B movie", and "great sci-fi horror cult classic" was not the film I saw. The year after high school in '92 a bud and I actualy managed to catch this film in theaters.

There was some kind of problem with the movie and they switched directors about halfway through, all the action and the attitudes of the actors just changes abruptly from post-modern, sci-fi film-noir tension, to a self-depreciating campy style. I think it's because they realized the film was an utter cr@pfest, and needed to try an pass it off as campy horror, as if that's what they were going for all along.

The action takes place in a mid 2000's London flooded by global warming, and the Bobbies are now all heavily armed, and splash around the city in jacked up 4x4 Jeeps. The flooding and general modern decay has turned London into a cross between Venice, and "Escape From New York". Rugter Hauer is the sterotypical "loose cannon" detective. There's a string of Satanic murders, but the murder must have super-human abilities to get in and out of where they happened, and do things like string bodies up on the celings etc.

Well, the monster is a 99.9999% rip-off of H.R. Gieger's Alien and is supposed to be some sort of Rat-Man-Satan fusion/mutation caused by global warming and the flooding of London. Kim Cattral shows up partway through as Rugter's ex-girlfriend somehow.

The only notable thing is that it's the only time I've ever seen "short-barreled, belt-fed, multi-barrled, gatling style, assult shotguns" used on screen.

" I thought it was dumb that after the mafia guy declared he would give $10 million to whomever busted him out of prison, all these guys with ultra tactical weaponry and skill to match just came out of the woodwork."


Actually, the guy offered $100 MILLION DOLLARS! That's a huge load of money to me.


As far as a truly horrible movie, "The Bravados" with Gregory Peck has my vote. That was a disgrace to the Western genre of films.

 

[Nightcrawler]

A (dis)honorable mention goes to Napoleon

WHAT?

That movie brought back a lot of...erm...bad memories...for me. I know, I know! It's hard to believe looking at my rugged, chiseled features, or my calm, suave demeanor, but I wasn't always this awesome.

I loved the film all the same.

GASP!!!! Noone better pick on "They Live"!!! Rowdy Roddie Piper is a genius. he is just misunderstood. i have been watching him on the small screen since I was a kid. he also does not live to far from me and I occasiionally catch a glimps of him locally.

 

[PlayboyPenguin]

I hope you are being sardonic...if not that was a very small minded thing to say. But there is one in every crowd.

 

[Tequila_Sauer]

Batman 3 and 4
Wild Wild West
Mortal Kombat 2 (whatever that second one was called)
Little Nicky

That's my top 5 worst movies ever list. Also, there was a terrible movie with Juliette Lewis and Giovanni Ribisi where they're both mentally disabled and have a relationship. I think it was called "The Other Sister" or some such. It was very stupid and genuinely made me uncomfortable watching it.

As a general rule, I've found any movie based on a videogame to be crap.

Although, I must confess an admiration for Milla Jovovich in the first Resident Evil ...

Wait until Silent Hill comes out in April. Screenplay written by Roger Avary (pulp fiction, reservoir dogs) and directed by Christophe Gans (Brotherhood of the wolf.)

Composed by the same guy who did the games, not a hollywood production, and Gans hates Uwe Boll and is happy that he got a hold of this movie before Boll did since Christophe Gans is a huge fan of the games. It won't be an action shooter movie that resident evil was turned into. The only person that has a gun in this one is a cop. All of the fans including I are betting that this will be the best game to movie adaption so far.

 

[Dr.Rob]

AJ I swore that movie was called "Scorpio Rising"

"What do we do now?"

"Now we get big %$#@%^* guns."


It wasn't that bad.

 

[modifiedbrowning]

Anyone seen the new Steven Seagal movie "Black Dawn"? Talk about craptastic. He doesn't even do his martial arts stuff anymore, they use a stunt double and try to hide his face with bad camera editing.

Air Force One is still the worst movie I have ever seen though.

 

[UWstudent]

I liked batman 4 (wasn't that the latest one?).. anyway, i thought it was cool. I also enjoyed DOOM.

see, i can enjoy "bad" movies..

another decent movie i'd recommend would be black hawk down..
just saw it for the first time. very realistic.

Whoa, a Silent Hill movie!
I only played the second game, but it was a great experience.
I want to try the fourth.
Mortal Kombat was a good movie, imo.
As for bad movies...um...well, I can't think of any...but I do have two words:
Soap.
Operas.
I once saw a real cheesy one where this lady had a revolver pointed at a guy. They were both standing beside a car. The badguy was situated near the rear bumper, and the lady next to the driver's door. She kind of steps foward a bit and fires.
Now, get this--the man leans back exactly like Neo from The Matrix (only not as slow and even cheesier looking), it even shows the bullet travelling by his shoulder into a fence behind him.
He then slaps the gun out of her hand.

All of these video game movies make me feel old. I missed the video game craze completely. I have bought everyone out there for my neice and nephew though like the new XBox360 this x-mas but if they ask me to play with them I am lost...way to many buttons. What happened to a joystick and one red button?

 

[UWstudent]

The XXX series isn't supposed to be realistic- think updated James Bond. When was the last time Bond was realistic- a .380 PPK making devastating hits at longer ranges while moving?

I do believe that those "vertical explosives" were just blowing the hatches off of airvents. I didn't find this movie all that awful- not great, but I wasn't expecting Oscar-level material. I was expecting a mindless run and gun flick. For that, it's passable.

i dont think they were air vents.. because later in the movie, ice cube was using a rope to bring him up to the surface and shoots at the side of the verticle hole breaking dirt off, down on the people below..

but james bond WAS realistic.. there was always an explanation to how the .380 bullet killed the bad guy..
sometimes he had to shoot the bullet into a rail accellerator that increased the .380 to a velocity of a 10mm, then being deflected off a helicopters chopper blades, into the next chopper where the bad guy is, hitting the only fuel line hose that makes the entire helicopter blow up..
