A24 4,359 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Jesp, I think you'll like Spoorloos very much, especially after or before seeing the ridiculous US remake The Vanishing. I saw "The Vanishing". I liked it well enough, but I am sure the original is better. I will see Karakter and Spoorlos.As an JWfan you will be pleasantly surprised with Karakter.

nightscape94 965 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Manos: The Hands of FateEasily. Oh my sweet God, this movie is so terrible. Years ago, before MST3K got ahold of it, the step-father of a friend of mine had this movie, and dared us to watch it. I didn't understand what he was getting at. I had no idea a movie like that could even exist. This movie isn't even in the vein of 'so bad it's funny' like Plan 9, it's just awful, and caused me serious pain.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,238 Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Plan 9 is still awful. Just because it's funny because it's awful doesn't change the fact that it's awful.Perhaps. But it's still better than those movies that are so awful they're beyond enjoyable. Regarding the Batmen mentioned above: Batman Forever and Batman and Robin are truly horrible. The only good things I remember about them are Goldenthal, Clooney, Kilmer and Silverstone.Marian - who still needs the B&R score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaderbait1 1 Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Even if I hate a movie I can usually watch it through at least once. The only movie that I had to turn off, and really felt that I had wasted parts of my life on was Jason X. Undoubtedly the worst movie ever made. It was so bad, it didn't even have humor value to make fun of it. It's simply awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 For some dark and mysterious reason, I saw the trailer for the next Uwe Boll film. It even said "an Uwe Boll film" on screen. How they hope to attract anyone with that is beyond me. It has Kristinna Loken in a tight leather top, but that's about all there is to this movie.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 It's hard to say, but this might just be the worst movie ever made. EVER. I caught the end of this twice on Showtime. My mind cannot comprehend how something like this gets made. Watch the two clips for some laughs, the second one is just some guy recording his TV, but it's worth watching.

Delorean90 42 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Troll 2 (I do not dignify it with italics), from the 20 minutes I managed to watch in horror, has got to be among the worst movies EVER MADE.

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Hmm...while probably not the worst film from a "general" point of view, I would nominate Waterworld, as it is (one of) the worst of the few films that I have seen.1941Do you really despise 1941 that much? There is no denying that the film is an unmitigated mess of practically 250 confusing story lines that resolve in an arguably unsatisfactory way, but I consider it entertaining nonetheless(that and the "Swing, Swing, Swing" sequence immediately raises it to a level far beyond "Worst Movie Ever", at least in my eyes). One could do far worse, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scallenger 487 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I agree with the MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE suggestion. I've tried watching it stand-alone and... I don't think I want to EVER again. lol. However, watching the Mystery Science Theater 3000 version is a bit of an experience that you have to put yourself through at least once. Nothing is more fun than suffering through a really, really bad movie with a group of people! Because, really, MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE was filmed on a vacant lot...

Charlie Brigden 7 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I think it's always interesting to take into account certain things, not least how subjective this can be. After all, one man's Ed Wood might be another man's Scorsese. But also what materials, talent, budget were available to the filmmaker at the time, which I think is why BATMAN & ROBIN rightly is so often mentioned, because it's a picture with some genuinely good actors and artists that managed to make a two-hundred million dollar carcrash. I've seen lots of terrible films on TV, video and the internet, but DEUCE BIGALOW, MALE GIGOLO is probably the worst film I've paid to see.

The best aspect is the score, which is fantastic.At least Superman IV has ORIGINAL music by J.W., which makes it essential, in my books. It is also closer in "spirit" to the first two movies than III is.Howazbout The Swarm (bad film, but what a score???!!!), Jaws 3-D, Jaws: The Revenge, Beyond The Poseidon Adventure, When Time ran Out, Poseidon, Hook, Diamonds Are Forever, and many more coming soon to a terminal near you (if I can remember them).I have waxed lyrical on the merits of 1941 at this site for almost ten months, now. Yes, it is confusing, plot-wise, but it boasts superb visual effects, fine cinematography, great sound design, and a brillant score. IMO it is far better than Spielberg's more lauded efforts, such as all films begining with Indiana Jones And The..., Hook, Jurassic Park, and The Lost World, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
