Not recently but i am going to watch Prometheus and i hear it is pretty bad.
In response to the 'good movies' thread, feel free to add any howlers you wish to this list. :lol:
I have just watched Maximum Overdrive again, a feature length film based on a Steven King short story 'Trucks' about a meteor passing earth and all the worlds vehicles coming to life. I loved this movie as a kid and was looking forward to seeing it again.
It.
Was.
Awful.
:lol:
In a similar vein, my brother put me on to a film called Hybrid. He sold it to me as being 'a bit like Christine' - a killer car etc etc.
While some of the acting was ok, it was one of the worst ideas for a movie I've ever seen made reality. :lol:
Buy it next time you're around the supermarket bargain-bin. :wink:

Revolver.
Absolute cak and not even in an hilariously funny way, just rubbish. :?
Cheers,
Neil.
Strippers Vs Werewolves. Out of work soap actors in made for DVD production.
Project X
it may have been funny when I was a teenager but now I've got kids of my own, watching a load of drugged / drunk adolescents wrecking their parents house just isn't my thing!
Man on Ledge.
Utter drivel.

Prometheus was pretty poor. Also saw Thor recently, didn't think a lot of that. Wooden actors. Only saving grace was Anthony Hopkins.
The post above reminds me, yes i saw Captain America which bored me to death with it's cliches.
I haven't seen this but the trailer is so bad I might give it a go :lol:

Just what the hell was Christopher Plummer thinking when he agreed to do this?
Cheers,
Gary
The Fourth Kind, what a load of drivel
Haywire. Dog-toffee. Steven Soderburg directs Michael Douglas, Ewan MacGregor, Antonio Banderas, Bill Paxton and Michael Fassbender in an utterly snooze inducing pseudo 1970s assassin caper. Amazingly it seems yo receive nothing but praise from critics.
Tower heist
Footlose
Three musketeers
Rum diary
Journey 2

Killer Elite - pants
Kick Ass - pants
Horrible Bosses - pants...although you do get to see Jennifer Aniston in her undies
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow - pants
It's the curse of night shifts--i have to occupy myself somehow and it's usually watching crap films
All of Bruce Lee's films except "Enter The Dragon".

Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
No, because I know 99% most of the time if there's a good chance I won't like it...so I don't bother. :)

Still gets 4.9/10 on the IMDb site so it can't be a total howler.
Worth a look for the AC/DC soundtrack alone. :lol:
iron sky
Monsters - the cheapo Sci-fi set in Mexico.
Utter, utter tosh :P
Red Tails, i couldn't believe they could stick so many cliches in one movie, but George Lucas has proven me wrong yet again, i couldn't even watch it all the way as it was so bad.

Good production given the budget though I thought.
Phone booth
The Mothman proficies
The blob
All dogshit.
Remake of Arthur.
Oh.
My.
God.
The Human Centipede is one of the worst films ever, only just surpassed by its sequel :shock:
Anything on the syfy channel , so bad they are sometimes good :) . Thursday night its Piranhaconda certain to be a future classic :lol:

A step down from soap acting, and the scripts appear to be written by primary school children. :lol:
Caught a few minutes of transmorphers a few weeks ago - which was an atrocious rip-off of it's more famous cousin. :?
+1 just awful :twisted:Originally Posted by Bruce
I watched Sharktopus after reading about it here.Really bad but couldn't stop watching for some strange reason.
Wanted with James McAvoy and Angelina Jolie.
Utter claptrap
Seen some tripe films recently but not all that current as been catching up. The worst were, in no particular order...
Monsters
Jack Brooks monster slayer
Death at a funeral
Murder set pieces
Tree of life
The wrestler
Battle los Angeles
to name but a few!

Bet it wasn't as good as Sharktopus (?). Eric Roberts' finest film. Or was it called Octoshark? Oh well, I'm sure you get the gist.Originally Posted by jez
The Grey starring Liam Neeson. A bunch of not particularly likable blokes get chased by dogs - tedious.
The missus starting watching ET the other day when it was on. I'd never seen it but, my word! How on earth did that become a blockbuster???
Cant remember exactly what it was called but stumbled across one the other day called something like:
"meglagigantic shark vs rediculouslyoversized croc".....or something like that. Think I watched it for about 60 seconds before switching over in disbelief!!
Watched Vantage Point (Dennis Quaid / Matthew Fox / Forest Whitaker) the other night with the missus, what a shocker!!!
1hr 26mins too long!!!
IMDB rating of 6.6, I rate .6!
Woh now tiger DO NOT DISS ET :evil: :lol: :lol:Originally Posted by BSB
The American.
Boring drivel. Beautifully filmed, but soporific and with a quite meaningless plot, if indeed that's what you could call it. Again, loved by the critics.
However, for all its awfulness, it has Violante Placido in it, in some transparent smalls, and parading about in a way that I found perfectly enjoyable to watch... and is recommended for this reason alone.
The Tourist: Another 'faxed in from the adoption agency' Jolie performance - a bit of pouting and some arching of the eyebrows. Predictable and silly, the only highlight being Johnny Depp almost reprising his Captain Jack character as he runs across the rooftops barefoot in one scene.
Eat Pray Love: pain-in-the-ass, hard to please married woman leaves her husband and sets off around the world to 'find herself'. Even my wife was begging me to switch it off after 20 mins and she loves Julia Roberts films. Should have been called 'Stop Eject Dispose'.
Why in gods name did you even end up watching these....... you've only yourself to blame :wink:Originally Posted by Shakespeare
We have young kids so can't get to the cinema that often. We have a playlist set up with LoveFilm, but they arrive in a random order. We both add films to the list so inevitably I end up having to sit through (or feign illness) romcoms and chickflicks
I came home from the pub one night rather worse for wear and stumbled across this film on some channel or other, i couldn't beleive what i was watching but had to sit it through till the end, bad, disturbing, not sure which, but the next day i didn't beleive i'd seen what i vauguely remembered seeing so googled it to make sure it wasn't a dream, nope it was real, and there was a sequel :shock:Originally Posted by amnesia

The wife watched Buffy The Vampire Slayer the other day on Film 4.
I thought it would be pretty bad, but it did exceed even my worst expectations!!
Still struggling to get my head around the fact that there is a film called Sharktopus... :shock:
How could anyone NOT expect that to be shite with a title like that?! :?
In spite of my better judgement, I "had" to watch Ghost Rider - The Vengence. What a waste of time!
Tried to watch 'Project X' last night. What a waste of 30'.
Dolphin Tale - the usually hot Drew Barrymore develops a prosthetic tail for a dolphin.
Absolute girly sh@@e
Terminator Salvation, was utter crap.
Prometheus, was nearly as bad as Starship Troopers 2.
Biggest disappoint of the year, a massive turkey.
Widdly Scott should be beaten with a stick for stupidity.
