Scary Movie is a real contender, though it can't top that magnificent sex scene in the pool with Kyle McLachlan. :sex:

How's about the Robert Stigwood movie of the Beatles album, Sgt Pepper's, with Peter Frampton and the Bee Gees "doing things they're not proud of now" to paraphrase Dr. Clayton Forrester from MST3K, though he was talking about another movie.

Never seen either of the movies, but have not heard ONE good thing about either. Hey, I like gratitious skin as much as the average guy, but I can't even bring myself to watch Showgirls when it's on the tv, and I won't even think about renting it. :dead:

Make that "The Lost World".

Please, Mr. Spielberg, after all these years, can you tell us who teached that T-Rex how to helm the boat?

I thought Moulin Rouge was completely unwatchable, but most people seemed to love it.

My favourite "worst" film just has to be Plan 9 From Outer Space. Dustbin lids as flying saucers, change of lead actor half way through etc. etc. Total quality.

Yep, Manos, The Hands Of Fate is truly, truly wretched, starting with the title. Don't really know a whole lot 'o Spanish, but doesn't that mean Hands, The Hands Of Fate. Poor, poor Torgo, so misunderstood by humans. :rolleyes: It is certainly more watchable when being roasted by the MST3K crew.

Speaking of which, Santa Claus Conquers The Martians also gets a grand MST3K treatment as well, with one of my all-time fave holiday songs Let's Have A Patrick Swayze Christmas. Truly essential viewing for the warped.

I'm probably going to get some serious stick for saying this but The Sixth Sense has to be one of the worst movies ever. It was way too long; it could've been over in an hour. Plus I already knew the ending before I saw it, which made things even worse. If you haven't seen it, count yourself lucky!

No it wouldn't; like I said, it was too long and I don't think I could've watched the whole thing even if I hadn't known what the ending was. Also, in reply to AgentWood's post, I knew the ending because I didn't see the movie until about a year after it came out (I watched it on TV one night), by which time it had all come out in the press.

Well Shelley, this is probably why you didn't enjoy this.

Not only did I love that movie, but it was nominated for best movie of that year...

Ok, this doesn't imply a movie is good for the mass public, but I think that was a hell of a good movie, especially if you didn't know the ending!!

This would be like watching the Crying Game knowing :lol:, altough I prefered the 6th sense ;)

But, in my opinion (and I realise I'm in a SERIOUS minority here), I think Silence Of The Lambs is one of the greatest piles of shite ever. I could be kind & say I think it's over-rated, which I do, but my honest opinion is it's total crap.

Surprisingly (?), I've not watched any of the sequels. ;)

that's franken-steen! the producers is fantastic, and i enjoy spaceballs, as well ('pizza the hutt' is the best character name i've ever heard). and, although history of the world, part I wasn't a cinematic classic, i could watch it a million times.

I haven't seen Showgirls, and probably never will, but I have to think that Galaxina, with the late Dorothy Stratten, would give it a serious run for its money. Galaxina is to Spaceballs as Cannonball Run 2 is to Hamlet, and I say that as someone that barely made it through Spaceballs in the theater. As far as nauseating experiences in the theater, which are in a different class than those that can be defeated by a quick click on the remote, my personal low points are Spaceballs, Yentl (with Barbara Streisand), and the English Patient.

the english patient? i loved it! but then again, i'm a sucker for 'those kind' of films (period/historical dramas) and for ralph fiennes :love:. i wept like a baby at the end.

I have The Producers on DVD, an essential buy if I do say so myself. Any MB fan who doesn't have it yet is crazy....:spin:

Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein are classics as well. Spaceballs suffers from being made TEN YEARS after the film that inspired it, but there are some good laughs. Silent Movie made me laugh as a kid, but I haven't seen it in a while. Everything else in Mel Brooks' catalogue I avoid like the plague

I thought the book Hannibal was rather good, how he worked in the factual Beast of Florence investigation and the Pazzi story. A lot of people complained about the ending being too romantic / cliched but I was quite taken with the book

jesus-colostomy bag-christ, the worst one i saw this last year (that I'd been eagerly awaiting from all the reviews) was Igby Goes Down. I haven't seen such a repulsive piece of crap in I don't know how long. watching a bunch of prissy bourgeois shit-eating pseudo-culturati new yorkers who think they ooze cleverness with every intonation is not my idea of a good 2 hours. I knew it was going nowhere when i hadn't laughed anytime during the first 1/2 hour. how i sat through all of it is a miracle to me. what a waste of good talent in that one!

Aah, the Baldwin brothers - I think they deserve a whole category by themselves. And I probably risk being ridiculed for the rest of my existence for this, but I didn't think that Waterworld was unwatchable - c'mon, Kevin Costner with webbed feet and Dennis Hopper with bald head and eyepatch can't be that bad. Looking at all the movies mentioned above, I still think Showgirls is a clear winner. And it pains me to say that, because I'm a massive Twin Peaks fan and I still can't believe that Agent Cooper could've fallen so far.

Push - is your screenname inspired by The Cure song, perchance? i noticed The Cure in your "favorite bands" listing, so i thought i should ask. it's one of my favorite Cure songs.

Actually, that's just a happy coincidence - my name started out as "Push the little daisies and make em come up" from the Ween song, but as my weight started diminishing over the last month (being an alcohol and coffee free month for detox purposes) my name likewise shrunk. When I finally crack the 80kg barrier I might revert to "P". :) BTW, are you going to get the trilogy DVD when it comes out? (not trying to hijack the thread)

Ok, I agree with you on the Baldwin brothers....and as a SCUBA instructor I did find the webbed feet and the gills kinda cool in Waterworld, but come on....the movie sucked!

Lordy! what a thread. What's worse than Showgirls ? I immediately thought of Demi Moore and she's not even in it. I was thinking "Striptease", that's bad. Recently I have wasted time in front of "Blues Brothers 2000", "The Velocity of Gary" and "Dude Where's My Car".

Just how many bad Hollywood films can you make about high school jinx as the life changing Prom night approaches. This whole Prom thing has screwed up about 3 generations of Americans now.

"winner", well... seriously, you should check out Galaxina to see if you still feel that way. The best performance in the film was the very brief celebrity cameo... by the original Batmobile. I kid you not. Sample line : "Frank Future ? Oh yes, I remember him. He was delicious."

I'm surprised no one has mentioned "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" (co-written by Roger Ebert) or Grease 2: two "sequels" that actually made the first movie great by comparison :barf:

True. I didn't even bother to go to both my high school proms because all the music that would be played would be rap. But, instead, I probably did stay home and watch terrible movies - that were probably better than showgirls though - but I don't really remember.

I thought the same as you, but saw Red Dragon a couple of weekends back, on a recommendation from a friend who'd also thought the same, and was pleasantly surprised. The [different from Manhunter] opening scene is a cracker. On a par with the original, though not quite as stylised, but perhaps tries too hard to explain the psyche of the Red Dragon himself.

I'm amazed no one's mentioned Godfather III. What utter garbage when compared to the first two films. Sacrilege. One film that should never have been made.

Jeepers Creepers is by far and away the worst film I've seen in recent years though. Started well but fell away miserably and I didn't stick around for the end.

Jeepers Creepers has the feel and dread of the start of Texas Chainsaw and up to the bit where he falls down the chute it is blinding. Then it turns to rat shit.

Red Dragon is I thought pretty good throughout with Fiennes putting in a great performance, outclassing somewhat Hopkins somewhat as a twitchy nutbag who can't cope with emotions

But JARVO? Whats up with Godfather 3? It was pretty awesome, classic stuff where the helicopter massacres the big meet and the classic assassin stuff at the end... C'mon....... Al rules, as ever.... hooooha!

They played the 3 albums live back to back (old to new), following the tracklisting - then an encore of a few Cure classics. They've also just signed a new 3 album deal with their new label. To various other NOOL'ers, please insert derogatory Cure comments here..................................... :)
