Bad Films

I'm sat at home and my housemate is watching a film called Red Eye. It is completely wankenschaft. I can't stop laughing at it, it's so gash i felt compelled to start this thread of hilariously terrible films. And I don't mean so-bad-they're-good films or ironic eighties cack.

Go!

Are you saying Ghostbusters is a bad film? My life revolved around those 2 films till I was 11. I love 'em.

A Steven Segal film is a must. My choice: Out For A Kill

It even has that twat from So Solid Crew who Segal meets in prison, telling him to not forget about him...We never see this guy again for the rest of the film. Also to my knowledge Segal never changes his clothes for the duration of the film.

Check out this scene:

...Serious WTF.

Most of the dialogue is added in after shooting, put in when the the actor's face isn't on-screen, to hide the fact that their lips aren't moving...

the only movie i have walked out of: king arthur (the one with clive owen). i had no idea what was going on in the final battle. everyone has been betrayed by a double-crosser, but they don't know about it. double crosser hides in a tree for some reason. tristan (the cool guy with long hair and a falcon) fires an arrow in the air to celebrate the end of the battle, it kills the guy hiding in a tree. then the world explodes.

I thought Schindler's List was a really bad film when it came out.

I'm not being ironic, I really wanted to walk out the cinema but my girlfriend at the time was finding it deeply moving.

I've kind of kept it to myself all these years.

Oh, hold on a minute - Forrest Gump.

there you go, two films never to watch.

speaking of bad film, I actually made a movie review blog simply by using the pass/fail rating.

North.

I went to the world premiere @ Odeon Leicester Square with Rob Reiner personally introducing it as he'd finished editting it that day. People started walking out about 20 minutes in and I think we lasted nearly 45 minutes.

It was such a disaster it has never been released on DVD. Now that's a shit film.

I enjoyed the new Rambo! Wrath of God...Blah. Herzog is the most overrated directors of all time. I like what he writes but there is nothing exceptional about his directing. Thomas Mauch his long time cinematographer should be more recognised IMO.

I've been thinking a bit more on this - an unwatchable film for me - seriously, ten minutes of drop-jawed incredulity was all I could take - was a film on the TV a few months ago called "Rodger the Dodger". I couldn't understand how it got okayish "this is an indie film with sharp dialogue" kind of reviews when it came out. It's so awful I can't even begin to tell you. Anyone seen it and have a different opinion of it?

I liked that film. The dialogue was sharp-ish.There does seem to be an influx of shit indie films though. I blame Wes Anderson.

You mean Untold Scandal which is based on Dangerous Liaisons on which Cruel Intentions is also based.

Shame it is a brilliant movie.

Steven Segal! you got to be careful dissing him man, talk like that could come and round house you one day. i think there is a place on this world for a cop turned bad, or bad cop with a heart. its not a crap film cause it doesn't fail on its promise.

The only film i have walked out on in a while was "Knocked up" - i didn't even smile, it was so predictable. i then fell asleep during superbad.

Oh with you on Irreversible. great movie! sadly Tartan have gone under so be interesting to see how these edgier films will make it to our libraries...

That's no problem. You just have to run away. Segal can't run for jack! He always runs like someones shoved a broom handle up his arse.

The Postman. That film is unbelievably awful. It was nearly ok, but just costner's appalling timing made it unwatchable. It's like every time he opens his mouth in the film he finds it necessary to pause for dramatic effect, but the pauses are always far too long.

VeeVee, who directed untold scandal?
