There should have been only one!!
During the planet Ziest scene a friend of mine got up to leave, I stopped him thinking "surely it will get better" It never did and I had to appologise for making him stay and suffer. That is a movie that owes me more than just my money back, they owe me a appology for the pain they inflicted.

An old gf of mine was a huge fan of Lambert. We saw a review that went something like "Christopher Lambery and Sean Connery reprise their roles as immortal warriors from the planet Ziest.' and we really wonder if the reviewer had the right movie. We owed the reviewer an apology, we -really- should have listened.jdavis said:

Oh, please, none of the films mentioned even approach the un-watchable, boredom-inducing, brain cell-killing spawn of evil such as:
Night of the Lepus - a small western town is terrorized by....giant rabbits. Where are the French when you need them? Anyway, I think the giant rabbits are finally defeated by.....car headlights.
The Creeping Terror - unattractive extras terrorized by, well, a very slow moving shag carpet. The film was made without sync. sound. Just narration. That went on and on. For what seemed like hours, as the carpet remnant approached a car & the poor lovers inside could not escape. From a carpet. That moved about five feet a minute. Did I mention that many of the people in the movie actually paid money to be in the movie (instead of getting paid as extras)?
The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies - no film could ever live up to that title. Though the musical number, "Uh Ooh Wow Wow" almost does.
Rat Fink a Boo Boo - by the same writer/director of the previous film. I can not relate to you how mind-numbingly bad it is. Wait, I can. Makes the D&D Movie seem like, well, Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings.
And honorable mention to:
The Terror of Tiny Town - not a genre movie for these categories, it still deserves mention as the first (and last) all-midget western. All I can remember is the one line (used twice): "Why, the low-down coyote!" With 'coyote' pronouned kie-ote. Well, it might have been "Why, the low-down varmint" but I really think it was "coyote." I just can't bring myself to watch it again to see what the line really was. And Plan 9 from Outer Space was one of the first movies I bought on DVD.

Hmm...now I'm trying to recall a French film done by their version of Ed Wood. Some sort of zombie or vampire movie but early on in the film the one camera was broken and would only film at half speed so the director had the cast do everything in slow motion in the hope it would all come out ok.

I would watch all the movies mentioned back to back just to never see my personal white whale;
Superman IV!
There is no part of this movie that isn't painfull,
The repeated ad nauseum and baddly bluesceened supes flying into the camera
The Daily Planet baught out by a tabliod and all the reporters continue to work there.
Revealing his secret ID to Lois, flying her around for a while and making her forget again.
Superman decides to rid the world of nuclear missiles and all the nations just hand them over.
When Radioactive Man is blasting people and supes just stands there saying "No! Don't do that!"
Oh and Lenny Luthor
Superman IV!

if your looking fro lowbudget bad there was a movie called Curse of the Queerwolf, it was bad, real bad and that's all I'll say about that.
Surf Nazi's Must Die, must be seen to be believed.
Barbarian Queen has been mentioned in other threads, soft porn meets barbarians meets oh so bad script. Heck they made a sequel.
Hell Comes to Frogtown, Roddy Piper at his best, which is really really bad.
Any Hulk Hogan movie, Santa with Muscles is one of the worst movies of all time.

Bah, sean connery is never supposed to loose!
Biggest problem with The Avengers (besides the whole lack of an avengers feel) is the casting.

There are a few movies there that come to mind as not being all that bad:
70. Super Mario Bros. (1993) 3.4 (2313 votes) - very campy, but rather funny
78 McHale's Navy (1997) 3.5 (865 votes) - again, there's a lot that I'd think was worse.
90 Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002) 3.6 (1392 votes) - rather mediocer with overused plot and action, but none of it particularily bad.
100 Beowulf (1999) 3.7 (1182 votes) - I only saw this once, and it was a few years ago, but I seem to recall it being decent.

2 nights ago I rememebred something worse than Species II. We've got the DVD. It was Planet of the Apes.
GOD! That movie SUCKED! It was SO boring! And they changed the ending! It was a classic ending! But NOOOOO! They had to Make Abe Lincon into an ape, WHICH MAKES NO ****ING SENSE! Damn! That was one ****ing, **** film!
And for some reason, my housemates liked it.
