Worst movie you've ever seen?

[Melinda9]

I did not like

House of Flying Daggers



IT WAS JUST SO BORING, sorry for those who love it !

A few days ago I attended a screening of "Once Upon A Time In India: Laagan."



If movies that are pure cliches annoy you, you may very well consider this one to be a serious candidate for "Worst film ever." It's the kind of film where you root for the "bad" guys to win, just so that the ending won't be the painfully predictable turd you know it's going to turn out to be.

I would have to say Dragon Wars (released in 2007). The film was pretty much one gigantic letdown, starting with the fact that there were no dragons (only two giant snakes) until the very last MINUTE of the film and there was only one battle involving a dragon (not "wars"). Also, they somewhat conspicuously recycled some shots of stuff blowing up during the big city-in-peril scene. The film was so bad that it made average/mediocre films I saw around the same time (like The Seeker) seem like masterpieces by comparison. I have yet to see a movie for which i can't say, "Well, at least it wasn't as bad as Dragon Wars!"

Zack and Miri make a porno. (A comedy, not an adult movie.)

Well, the title doesn't exactly suggest a movie that I would find entertaining, but it was even worse than I expected.

[BitBuster]

Yeah, I knew better than to see that one. As you said, the title alone was a giveaway.

Oh man, that reminds me of a really bad movie about making a porno -- I think it was called Sex is Comedy or something, and it was in French.

[BitBuster]

^Yeah, I saw that. I don't think it was about making a porno per se; if I remember correctly, it was about the making of an artsy, "erotic" film, and the two leads, who had to film very intimate scenes, absolutely despised each other.



Good premise for a film, at least, imo.

[geodave]

Yeah, that was it. But it was lousy, IMO.

[BitBuster]

I honestly don't remember what I thought of it. All I know is that, just as I thought then, I think it's a plot idea ripe with interesting characters and confrontations. Perhaps it'd work better as a novel or a short story, where you wouldn't necessarily have to address the [blurred] line between the explicit scenes in the fictitious film and those in the "real" film. Then again, it may well be that dividing line that could give the film its power...

Need to finish my fantasy novel first.
