BAD movie

[THE PILGRIM]

Lately I have tried to watch a lot of NETFLIX.
Longmire, Godless, Jericho, The Ranch, Haven, Z Nation, and a few more- like them a lot.
But a lot of the movies and limited series are just bad!
Often, I can't make it through one show.
So if you have seen any NETFLIX shows you like, post now or forever hold you peace!
Another series that one of you guys recommended that I really like -its on Utube- was the Aussie Navy Show.
PS: even guys who I really like a lot, like John Wayne and Clint Eastwood made some less that stellar movies.
Clint singing, I probably don't need that. Josie Wales - I love that movie!
Duke - numerous I like a lot, some not so much. Yellow Ribbon is probably my fav.

The Big Labowski, or Kingpin, or any movie about bowling.

So many truly awful films, so little time. I don't go to the movies much (last film I went to was "The Simpsons Movie"), but I've seen plenty on TV. Generally any film produced by American International Pictures is guaranteed to be a turkey. They brought us such classic cinema as "Blacula" and "Count Yorga", plus the Vincent Price classic "Dr.Goldfoot and the Girl Bombs". I think they may also be responsible for the samurai/western train wreck "The Master Gunfighter" starring the guy from the "Billy Jack" films.

Speaking of "Billy Jack", the worst of them was "Billy Jack Goes to Washington". It makes the original "Billy Jack" look good.

Worst movie I actually saw in a theatre has to be "Kuffs", although "JFK" is a close second.

The new mad max movie is the worst film ever

 

[Snapping Twig]

Plan Nine from Outer Space is universally decreed and accepted as the very worst.

That said, I can tell by the replies that no one here has seen Iron Sky.

Here is a real stinker called From Hell It Came.
About a guy who is killed and comes back as a killer tree.

A lot of shows on Netflix are somewhat subjective in their appeal...what I like, normal people may not. Anyway, I've enjoyed a lot of shows on Netflix, like "Hatfields and McCoys" which is a limited series; Breaking Bad; Dexter (liked the show until the ending); The Tudors (be forewarned...lots of nudity/adult scenes); Spartacus (the series, not the old movie...and very graphic sex scenes, so not for the kiddies); and Crown (two seasons so far, about Queen Elizabeth II.) I also like some shows like Grey's Anatomy and The Walking Dead, which are missing the latest season, but you can catch up if you missed any prior episodes when they aired. I also like Sons of Anarchy, which is complete.

Sometime in early 1980s, I was in Pittsburgh visiting my friend while he was a graduate student at Carnegie Mellon University, somehow he got a couple of free tickets to see the movie "Jaws 3" in 3D, so off we went, beside us, there are only 2 other people in the cinema , I'm not sure the other 2 paid for the their tickets or like us, they have free tickets. Honestly I've seen some pretty bad ones in my time, like "Twins" with Danny Devito and Arnold Schwarzenegger, (wife insist to see it) do not watch "Jaws 3" even it's free, the time you spent can be use for other much more profitable pursuits, take my words for it.

The Big Labowski, or Kingpin, or any movie about bowling.

Dude! I protest! The Big Lebowski is great! Try, for example, on Youtube, the dream sequence: “Big Lebowski - Gutterballs.” I posted a link once here, and got chastised for the, um, racy content? Anyway, I think it screamingly funny satire, as was, to me and many others, the whole movie.

His name is....

Here is a real stinker called From Hell It Came.
About a guy who is killed and comes back as a killer tree.

His name is....TABOINGA!!!!

I got a kick out of the native women talking in a Bronx accent, "Here, I found some berries that we can eat." I wonder if that one has been on Mystery Science Theater 3000?

Again, there are many varieties of 'bad' or 'worst' movies. 'Attack of the Killer Tomatoes' was MADE to be stupid. One of the actors said the guy flying the helicopter must have gotten his pilot's license from Timothy Leary. He ACTUALLY knocked the tail rotor off the copter and the footage looked so good they used it in the movie.

"Zombie Lake"......what a bore. The only 'exciting' part was an upward view of a woman treading water. Of course nothing could be 'seen', and of course the girl got zombified. After several deaths, the Mayor tells the town council that "If this keeps up we'll have to call the police!:

Glen or Glenda - Ed Wood movie about one of his favorite subjects...cross dressing. See the 'Ed Wood' movie with Johnny Depp and Martin Landau. It's a great story about his dubious 'career'.

Actually Plan Nine from Outer Space is kind of entertaining. There are more mistakes in a matter of minutes than any movie ever made.

"I, a fiend? I, a fiend?

and...

"You earthmen are Steupid! STEUPID!"

Robot Monster. Man in gorilla suit and an old brass diving helmet haunts Bronson Caverns with a bubble making machine and a pair of TV rabbit ears.

"Teenagers from Outer Space" is a SCREAM. But if you really want to bust a gut laughing, watch the MST3000 version.

Worst trick pulled by a director: Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren, Peter O'Toole, and John Gielgud made a 'serious' version of Caligula. Then the director added many scenes of hard core sex and violence resulting in a movie that everyone hated.

How many people know that 'Mars Attacks' was inspired by a series of trading cards in the early 1960s that were full of gore, sex and violence? I had these cards, and thought they were really cool until some silly parents decided to have them pulled from the shelves. So yeah, Mars Attacks was made to be stupid. I mean, using Slim Whitman songs to destroy the martians by making their heads explode........

The trading cards are selling on Ebay for THOUSANDS of dollars. Two that I remember in particular were the Martians invading the college girls shower room and killing the earthlings by tying them in front of cannons and...

I agree and disagree....

I hate to rain on the parade; my grandkids rented the modern remake of the 3-Stooges. We endured 90 minutes of torcher.

Before it's even thought about, NOBODY can do the Three Stooges except for the Three Stooges and nobody should try. But I'll have to say that they guys that made this movie, did about as good as could be expected from anybody. And they did include a lot of the gags. I'll have to ask my brother if he ever saw it. He is a reknowned Three Stooges scholar and the world waits for his opinion.

Last movie I paid to see was in1987. Never gave Hollywood another cent after that.

According to the senses......

Should be a matter of personal taste but some just universally stink.
The most disappointing is seeing a flick that should be good and it fails, I looked forward to seeing 2001 Space Odyssey for years and finally saw it about 1990. I don't think I've seen from beginning to end, for me it just fell flat.
What I really like is going in with no expectation of anything and ending up enjoying a diverting couple hours. I thought Cowboys vs. Aliens was a hoot.

..especially visually and auditorially, the spectacle of going into space like being on a airliner to the music of Richard Strauss was pretty awesome. And that it started when early man used a bone for a tool. The story concerning HAL was intriguing, exciting and original. But that continuing to find the 'monolith' (whatever the hell that was) as we journeyed farther into space along with the very dated 'LSD' sequence and the ending with the old man turned into a fetus was a lot of hooey. ESPECIALLY when viewed outside of the 60's.

So, IMHO, 2001 was both a great movie and a stinker, depending on which part you watch.

 

[rwsmith]

I saw that.....

You apparently have never seen George C. Scott in "The Savage is Loose".

That was a movie that was interesting only from a psychological standpoint. Let's put people in an Oedipus situation that they can't escape from and see what happens. I thought it downright funny when he showed up ready to kill his son after almost being burned alive.

My solution would have been to kill the kid and George C. Scott and have Trish Van Devere all to myself.

PS: Scott was actually married to Van Devere and I'll bet he wasn't sharing her with NOBODY!.

 

[Texas Star]

I saw, The Mountain Road this week on YouTube.

Apart from liking that all the US guys had .45 autos and seeing a B-25 take off, it was a real dud.

Probably the worst movie Jimmy Stewart ever made.

 

[S&WWheelGun]

Open Water is the worst movie I have seen yet! It was billed as the next Jaws movie. I love those kinds of movies so I watched it with my wife. What a total waste of 2 hours! Can't believe they are already on Open Water 3? Insane

 

[OLDSTER]

Dude! I protest! The Big Lebowski is great! Try, for example, on Youtube, the dream sequence: “Big Lebowski - Gutterballs.” I posted a link once here, and got chastised for the, um, racey content? Anyway, I think it screamingly funny satire, as was, to me and many others, the whole movie.

AGREE!! The Dude abides One of the best "gigglers" of all times. Right up there with Blazing Saddles and Caddy Shack

 

[S&WsRsweet]

Worst movie I ever saw was back in the 80s called Grizzly .It was after the first jaws movie and they advertised it as " Jaws with Paws " about this giant prehistoric looking bullet proof grizzly bear .It was supposed to be scary but the scary part was I paid to see it.My first wife was with me we were dateing she pretended to be scared and I pretended to be her protective boy friend I must admit that girl could kiss .

 

[littleriver1]

I thought I was the only one that liked Mars Attacks. I really need to add Killer Clowns from Outer Space and The Green Slime. It's like instructions in how to die in slow motion. I love watching early B movies but if the they are so bad you can't laugh then they are just bad.

Billy Jack...

Billy Jack was a fairy tale for the times.

There were a few cool things in the movie, though,

The 'Billy Jack Butt Crack' he have to the bad guys.

The 'snake dance' where he let the rattler bite him.

Whacking the punk kid across the throat and killing him.

Billy Jack had made an appearance in "The Born Losers' where he shot a guy's sunglasses in half while they were still on his face.

Tom Laughlin was in 'South Pacific' and a few small parts. He wrote the screenplay for 'Billy Jack' in 1954 after seeing the treatment of Native Americans in his wife's home town. He had a really unorthodox relationship with studios in trying to bring movies to the theaters, but with a lot of turmoil and disagreement. His interests in psychology and opening one of the biggest Montessori schools in the country were probably more successful. After it all, adjusted for inflation, 'Billy Jack' was the largest grossing Independent film of all time.
