I'm curious to see what the last awful movie people watched, I'm currently watching Blade: Trinity since it's on free-to-air t.v. and I'm doing other things but I'm really asking myself why. I could comment on everything wrong with this movie but it'd be a very long post.

Time to share Jinxsters!

I've been making an effort to watch a lot of horror this month, which means I've had to sit through a good amount of mediocre to bad movies. Last night I watched a late 80's slasher called "Intruder." It had a few charms, but overall, it was pretty stinky.

The other night I watched "Whatever Happened to the Morgans." As is the case with most of these movies, it wasn't so much terrible as it was mediocre, but that's what made it so terrible. A truly terrible movie would have at least been entertaining on some level.

Good point. Ridiculing an awful movie is it's own form of entertainment.

Meh is just..... meh

20 minutes into Prince of Persia I fell asleep, then I woke up about 15 minutes to the end of the movie. I was in the cinema with 7 friends. I might've been embarrassed but I'm told I didn't miss much.

I saw "My Soul to Take 3D" last weekend. Holy crap, that was terrible.

Last night I was poking around the On Demand channels and discovered that AMC has a handful of zombie movies available, in anticipation of the Walking Dead premiere.

So I cued up 1958's TEENAGE ZOMBIES, which was every bit as awful as you'd imagine. A terrible, washed out print somehow only increased the cheesy enjoyment.

Here's Allmovie's plot synopsis:

"A deranged female scientist conducting weird experiments on a remote island kidnaps teens and injects them with a formula that transforms them into zombies."

They did have WHITE ZOMBIE available, though. Might do that tonight.

The Nightmare on Elm Street remake was dreadful, IMHO. Not scary or entertaining, plus several plot holes.

Speaking of bad horror movies I recently watched the new My Bloody Valentine and wow it was bad. I was disappointed that Jensen Ackles was in it too (I'm a Supernatural fan) I kept saying over and over again 'you poor man, why are you in such a bad movie?' But I guess even bad movies help pay the bills.

Cats and Dogs 2: The Revenge of Kitty Galore. I have a 4 year old and it was at the drive in.

It's a toss up between Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married, Too? and Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire.

Dreadful titles aside, these "films" were abominable.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Terrible movie, and yet, not nearly as bad as the shitty G.I. Joe movie from last summer.

I haven't seen a movie I really, REALLY hated in a while-I think the last one would have had to have been "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo". I found nearly no redeeming qualities in that movie. It's a pretty bad sign when the rape scene is by FAR the best part of the movie.

They were playing Dinner with the Schmucks on my flights, and I caught about 10 minutes of it. WAS NOT GOOD.

Were Scarlet and the Baroness at least as hot on screen as the stills I saw made them look?

Yes, they were gorgeous.

But, just to tell you how bad the movie was:

The Baroness is hypnotized into being evil, and is "cured" in the end; just in time to fall in love with Duke.

Bitch Slap. Which is kind of a porn with violence but no hot sex. So it really just doesn't work.

Disaster Movie.

Wasn't even the "So bad it's good" kind, it was just awful.

The last AWFUL movie I watch was The Human Centipede. Here's what I wrote about it in anothe thread on these boards:


One of my pet peeves is when I ask somebody "So what's "IT" about?" Be it a movie/book/tv show/etc. and they go on to tell me plot point by plot point what happens in "IT". I don't want you to tell me the EVERYTHING that happens in the story, give me a general idea what it's about thematically. Well, this is one of those stories that's completely about what happens. NO subtext whatsovever... I can tell you exactly what happens in the movie and that's exactly ALL it's about. Horrid film.


To make up for even mentioning an awful film I watched I'll recommend a GREAT film I watched in the last month or so:

Unfaithfully Yours (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0040919/)

And here's what I wrote about it in another thread on these boards:


Another insanely clever, fun and hysterical Preston Struges movie I could ssee becoming one of my favorites with multiple viewings. It's great to see movies honestly deal with unwarrented male jelousy and especiously as creatively as this one does.


seriously. AVOID The Human Centepede and RUN out to buy or rent or watch Unfaithfully Yours. FANTATSIC FILM!

As much of a fan as I am of horror movies I'm avoiding The Human Centipede like the plague.

I saw the Hate By Numbers episode on it. I didn't even see the full ad and I was still turned off by it. Seems more like a gross out scary than slashers, thrillers and the like.

My worst ever was called Intersection with Richard Gere.
Gere plays an architect trying to decide between his wife (Sharon Stone)
and his mistress (Lolta Davidovich)
After deciding on Davidovich, he gets into a car accident and dies.
HORRIBLE movie.

Repo Men. First of all, it sucked in general. Secondly, it's "twist" sucked. Third, we got a "rental only" disc from Netflix where they disabled ALL of the special features, including THE FRIGGING SUBTITLES. When you're watching a mumbly movie starring Jude Law and Forest Wittaker... YOU NEED SUBTITLES.

Ugh. Hate the "rental only" discs from Netflix. Might as well go back to Blockbuster...

I hate gore-fest movies, I watched the first The Hostel and some of the Saw movies but never again. At least the first Saw movie had some interesting intrigue, now it just seems to be 'let's see how we can find interesting ways to kill people in this next sequel.'
I also hated The Hills Have Eyes because it was more a movie to appal the audience instead of scaring them.

I have a new one. Last night I tried to watch a movie called Brain Dead. Not the Peter Jackson one (also known as Dead Alive). That movie was fun. No, this one is from 2007. Terrible acting, terrible dialogue, no plot. The gore looked good, but that wasn't enough to get me to sit through the whole movie. I shut it off halfway into it. I'm a person who almost NEVER shuts off a movie, so you know it was pretty bad if even I couldn't make it to the end. Maybe I'll try to watch the second half sometime, just for the sake of completism.

The consensus I've heard is that it's less a bad movie for being disgusting and more a bad movie for just being badly acted, badly written, badly shot and not making a whole ton of sense.

I wanna say Jumper, but I'm trying to forget the bad ones. I do remember watching something a little more recent where the New Zealand actor that was in it let his American accent slip, but I forgot which one it was.
