Not even the worst of these movies is as bad as the ILX 1990s poll
these movies are all better than those you voted for in the ILE "best of" poll
I think there are more good films in this thread than the ILE Best of the '90s.

Dumb point taken!

I only said it once, for the record, but I'm glad I'm not alone... except for romantically.

Funny Farm -- This is a terrible, unfunny comedy starring Chevy Chase and worse yet directed by George Roy Hill, who made quite a few really good movies at one point. It is the worse movie I ever actually paid to see.

All of those Fear/The Babysitter/Poison Ivy 2 movies from the early 90s are pretty atrocious.

Scanners,
or
Naked Lunch.

Cronenbourg is a genius? Only if genius means rubbish.

No-one mentioned "Sliver" yet? In that case, I will.

Ah, sorry i spelt his name wrong, but Cronenbourg or Cronenberg, he's still made the same dire films.

How the heck did I forget Star Wars Episode i? That might be worse than anything else on this thread.

― Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Friday, 18 February 2005 16:11 (nineteen years ago) link

Does The Star Wars Holiday Special count as a movie? If so, it's a dead cert.

Battleship Potemkin yo, the storming of the Winter Palace had every cliche in the book.
-- Gordy Stevenson (sonofsteve...), February 15th, 2005.

HAHAHA. Brilliant!

Aw, c'mon - they weren't cliches in fucking 1924!

But that's my only comment regarding the dozen-or-so above films that I like. My choice for worst:

"Crash" (wurst movie I ever paid money to see!) may have turned me off Cronenberg (& R. Arquette for that matter) forever - and I liked everything previous. Never woulda believed that any film could be repellent, unbelievable and deadly dull all at once - a near-impossible combination! - so at least I'll give him credit for that.
2nd würst $ layout: "Howard The Duck", and in fact EVERYTHING w/George Lucas's name on it after, oh, 1981 is a contenda. And every movie in which Michael Douglas plays an executive. And the aforementioned "Con Air" - Has there ever been a worse film w/as many usually dependable actors? (No.)

Search party required for Myonga Von Bontee's sense of humour!
