View Full Version : Worst movie you ever saw in theaters?
GoOKC1991 10-23-2013, 02:58 PM The movie you went and saw and thought "I want my money back" and or "What a waste of time".
For me, The Wrestler....walked out on it actually, I know it was very popular, it just wasn't my thing at all and thought it was awful.
Roger S 10-23-2013, 03:10 PM Pretty much anything my wife drags me to see.
Martin 10-23-2013, 03:10 PM hmmm... i'm gonna go with island of dr. moreau.

Have you ever heard Ralphie May's comedy bit about that movie?
You Light Up My Life at Shepherd Twin. Walked out.

I love the description of the woman's hair. "Cuba divin' ain't nobody gonna catch me cuba divin'. Norkelin'. Ya'll ever been norkelin' before?"

Yup!
OKVision4U 10-23-2013, 04:05 PM Have you ever heard Ralphie May's comedy bit about that movie?
no what is it?
Also, toss in Star Wars Atack of the Clones. It was even worse than phantom menace which is also a strong contender for worst ever.

Just the facts 10-23-2013, 05:39 PM Bill and Ted's excellent adventure! I was young! lol
This thread is for 'worst ever', not best ever.
Worst that I paid money for - Happy Feet.

and then? lol
The Avengers! The 1998 film based on the old TV series. Sean Connery, Ralph Fiennes, and Uma Thurman. I made it thirty minutes before I walked out.

Same here

The wild wild west movie was horrid and should have been buried in a deep dark hole upon release ....ditto for.
Three Amigos

RadicalModerate 10-23-2013, 07:55 PM Exorcist II: The Heretic.
Before it was over, comments from various members of the small crowd watching it made the experience a lot like being at a live taping of Mystery Science Theater.
Rollover
Literally a snoozer. I actual only saw about the first fifteen minutes. Then I fell asleep.
Achilleslastand 10-23-2013, 08:02 PM And might I add this.........
The series was great and the movie had to ruin it all.

Ginkasa 10-23-2013, 08:48 PM Miami Vice is the only movie I've walked out of.
OKCisOK4me 10-23-2013, 10:44 PM Miami Vice is the only movie I've walked out of.
That was my choice. Approximately 15 or so friends (a few of them police officers) and I went to see it expecting big time action but it just ended up being a snoozefest! Heck, if you look at his directors credit...it shoulda been good but it was just abysmal...
Celebrator 10-23-2013, 11:24 PM Something to Talk About (1995) Julia Roberts and Dennis Quade. I went on a date in high school to that movie and it is the only one I have been in where I fell asleep.
Also, Election (1999) Broderick/Witherspoon. I walked out.
The Five Year Engagement, another one we walked out on. Dismal dialog and zero chemistry between the two leads.
TaoMaas 10-24-2013, 05:58 AM Hmmm...there's actually some fairly decent movies being listed here. lol I've seen plenty of stinkers, but the worst one I ever paid to go to a theater and see was Battlefield Earth.
RadicalModerate 10-24-2013, 06:04 AM Battlefield Earth (with John "The Scientologist" Travola in the lead role as sort of a low-rent Klingon) was the worst movie I ever saw rerun on television. Had I seen it in a theater, I would have rated it above Exorcist II: The Heretic (in terms of awfulness or worstness).
Battlefield Earth is, like, The "MacArthur Park" of movies.

Martin 10-24-2013, 08:57 AM i remember really disliking batman and robin. i know some people really like this one, but i've got to mention it... the fountain. i think the only movie i've ever walked out of was baby's day out. -M
warreng88 10-24-2013, 09:02 AM My wife tried to make me leave The Dark Knight because it was too creepy. I told her to sit through half and if she is still creeped out, we can leave. After the movie, she said she was glad we didn't leave although there are a ton of plot holes.
OKVision4U 10-24-2013, 09:16 AM The Lone Ranger. ...just bad.
It would help if theatre seats had electrical sockets so I could take my cpap along in case the movie went south on me. I snore way too loud to fall asleep in a movie.
MadMonk 10-24-2013, 01:45 PM Blue Velvet, hands down. Its the only movie I've ever walked out on.

Battlefield Earth is awesome!
RadicalModerate 10-24-2013, 03:14 PM Battlefield Earth is awesome!
Yeah. Awesome BAD!!!!!!!
(Why it's so bad that it made me leave the -ly off of awesom....)

OKCretro 10-24-2013, 03:24 PM saw a movie a few weeks ago, walked out after 45 minutes.
It was called "thanks for sharing" it was with Gweneth Paltrow. horrible horrible movie
OKCisOK4me 10-24-2013, 04:56 PM Yeah. Awesome BAD!!!!!!!
(Why it's so bad that it made me leave the -ly off of awesom....)
No really, I love it. Thankfully, I have a buddy who bought it on bluray so I can just borrow it from him at any time. If you think about it, it's kinda like the Ancient Alien Theory except in the future. The Annunaki came to earth and used humans to mine gold...exactly what this race does...
RadicalModerate 10-24-2013, 05:31 PM Battlefield Earth | RiffTrax (http://www.rifftrax.com/rifftrax/battlefield-earth)
Yup: Vinnie Barbarino in a low-rent Klingon costume.
At some point in post production they should have spliced this into the soundtrack:
GHS8hj4TdT8
It's about as rambling and disjointed as the rest of the film . . .
"It's not nice to be dissin' L. Ron Hubbard" . . .

"So knock it off."
I stand by my opinion that, compared to "Battlefield Earth," the Ed Wood Klassic, "Plan 9 From Outer Space" is "Citizen Kane".
kelroy55 10-24-2013, 05:31 PM Eraserhead... weird movie
RadicalModerate 10-24-2013, 05:42 PM I saw Eraserhead once. It caused permanent brain damage.
(Even thinking about it creeps me out. Almost as much as "Battlefield Earth". . .)
"Barbarella" was pretty bad. And I actually DID see that one in a theater.

You have to be kidding, RM. That was a fantastic movie and this scene is a classic and worth the price of admission by itself. I have no idea why Jane didn't win her first academy award with this one. :cool:

zookeeper 10-24-2013, 08:50 PM Has anybody mentioned Ishtar?
ljbab728 10-24-2013, 08:52 PM Has anybody mentioned Ishtar?
Not necessary to mention. It's in a category of it's own.
OKCisOK4me 10-25-2013, 12:59 PM I'm surprised no one's mentioned 'Gigli' but as lj posted, it too, is probably in its own category.
MadMonk 10-25-2013, 01:13 PM I'm surprised no one's mentioned 'Gigli' but as lj posted, it too, is probably in its own category.
LOL, I don't think that many saw that one in the theater. :D
OKCisOK4me 10-25-2013, 01:17 PM LOL, I don't think that many saw that one in the theater. :D
Didn't it get pulled after only like a week or something?
RadicalModerate 10-25-2013, 01:37 PM So . . . Word on the street has it that they are planning a "sequel" to GIGLI and ISHTAR that will merge both films into one for re-release. The working title is I RIG GHASTLI. It will complete the trilogy of cinematic shame. I think it will be about Key Grips in the Italian movie industry. Probably it will feature a romp thorough Tuscany at some point. A Felliniesque romp except if Fellini was brain dead.
bchris02 10-25-2013, 01:41 PM What about Bug with Ashley Judd? That movie was so bad it was actually enjoyable because of how bad it was.
TaoMaas 10-26-2013, 07:34 AM Since someone was brave enough to admit to liking my "worst", I guess I'll fess up to enjoying some of the other movies listed. I actually liked The Wrestler, Blue Velvet, and Election quite a bit. I thought Reese Witherspoon was great as Tracy Flick in Election. She really made you dislike her. lol Some of the others I like as just pure brainless fun...Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure...Dude, Where's My Car? (worth watch just for the tatoo scene)...Elf...and Three Amigos. I think Blue Velvet is the only one of those I actually paid to see in a theater. The rest were just rentals.
