A Time To Kill Rotten Tomatoes
Plenty of bad movies get rated on Rotten Tomatoes, but it's rare to come across a pic score a flat 0% without a single critic to defend something about the motion picture. If y'all didn't recall it was possible, accept a walk down the cinematic hall of shame and feast your eyes on some of the worst movies (co-ordinate to Rotten Tomatoes) to date.
Each film on this list has managed to achieve a flat 0% rating, implying a time suck of epic proportions should y'all choose to watch them. Manifestly, these movies should but be viewed at your own run a risk. Consider yourself warned!
Await Who's Talking Now (1993)
Although the original Look Who's Talking film scored a mere 57% among critics, it was a viewer favorite, which prompted the creators to make not one, only two sequels. The first ii featured John Travolta, Kirstie Alley and a serial of talking babies. Cute, right?
In the 3rd film, Look Who'south Talking Now, the filmmakers instead swapped the babies out with crude talking dogs who brand constant sexual references. Very kid-friendly, right? Information technology's incommunicable to sympathize how anyone making the moving picture failed to consider this strategy would completely alienate the target audience and critics.
Although Hollywood may occasionally be able to stomach a bad movie, there's null it hates more than a blatant rip-off. Such was the case when MAC and Me was released in 1988. The story features a young, wheelchair-bound boy who meets MAC (Mysterious Alien Creature), an alien who needs aid finding his mode home. Audio familiar?
Patently, the filmmakers idea that putting the poor child in a wheelchair would go on everyone from realizing they had patently hijacked the plot of East.T. Information technology didn't work — Duh! — and critics weren't shy nigh letting anybody know what they thought almost it.
Jaws: The Revenge (1987)
As Steven Spielberg told a moving-picture show festival audience in 1975, "Making a sequel to anything is just a cheap carny trick." The fact that he understands what so many other filmmakers fail to grasp, however, didn't keep three sequels to his hit movie Jaws from existence fabricated by other misguided industry professionals.
The tales of terrified beachgoers merely kept coming until finally Jaws: The Revenge, the franchise's quaternary movie, finally sank things one time and for all. The movie'southward nonsensical plot, bad special effects and sloppy execution were more than critics or moviegoers could handle with a straight face.
Staying Live (1983)
Always noticed that there's something near dance movies that seems to inspire a million sequels? Before the days of the Pace Upwardly franchise, Staying Alive led the fashion toward insipid dance picture show franchises of the future. Unfortunately, this questionable sequel to the successful Saturday Night Fever came nowhere near the success of its predecessor.
John Travolta returned as Tony Manero in a plot gear up vi years after he won the legendary disco contest in the commencement film. The plot mostly serves equally a filler for additional dancing that the filmmakers mistakenly counted on to comport the movie.
Bolero (1984)
Poor Bo Derek. One day, her career was off to a great start, and the next, her hubby, John Derek, had a not-then-brilliant idea called Bolero. Written and directed by John himself, the picture show features Bo every bit a recently graduated woman in the 1920s who traipses all over the globe in an endeavour to lose her virginity.
The whole thing turned out to exist ane of those movies that's funny for all the wrong reasons, and it was largely considered a huge mess by critics. On the other hand, it won half-dozen of its 10 Razzie award nominations. Maybe that counts for something — or not.
Dream a Little Dream (1989)
Y'all know you have failed in a spectacular fashion when not even teen heartthrob Corey Feldman could save your '80s movie. Such was the example with Dream a Little Dream, a baroque story most an elderly couple who undertakes a mystical experiment.
As a result, they end up trapped in the bodies of two teenagers, whose lives don't turn out to exist what they had expected. Non surprisingly, the flick itself turned out to be epically incoherent. Roger Ebert dubbed information technology "an aggressively unwatchable motion-picture show," while other critics questioned whether the writers had whatever thought what they had created.
Trouble Child (1990)
A couple adopts a immature boy who turns out to be an absolute nightmare who is determined to brand their lives hell. While this might audio like a solid premise for a horror movie — maybe it would have worked that manner — Trouble Child actually tried to present itself as a slapstick comedy.
The problem was that none of the jokes were the least flake funny, and the plot itself came beyond as more than hateful-spirited than fun. The result was a mess of a film with a lead graphic symbol that neither adults nor children could bring themselves to sympathise, let solitary similar.
Megaforce (1982)
Megaforce was supposed to chronicle the tale of an elite group of international warriors, but it turned out to be something virtually critics had to strength themselves to watch. Equally one reviewer put it, the moving-picture show was "the kind of bad that makes y'all wish y'all were somewhere, anywhere else."
The motion picture barely grossed a fourth of its $xx 1000000 budget, piddling of which appeared to accept been used to improve annihilation about the pic. With bad dialogue, cheesy special effects and a ridiculous plot, Megaforce ended up being the most unintentionally funny action moving-picture show of all fourth dimension.
Highlander ii: The Quickening (1991)
Few movies brought fans, critics and fifty-fifty its ain crew together in mutual cloy quite like Highlander 2. The original Highlander at least accomplished a cult following, but the sequel pretty much only borrowed the title and absolutely none of the adept parts of the storyline.
The filmmakers bizarrely tossed much of the original movie's plotline and twisted the premise to include aliens contesting on an environmentally plagued World in 2024. Rumor has information technology that fifty-fifty manager Russell Mulcahy asked to supercede his name with a faux one but was forbidden by his contract from bailing out.
American Canticle (1986)
If yous have never heard of this 'lxxx'south gymnastics story, then you're not alone. The story centers around a young male gymnast who works through various issues, meets a girl and trains for the Olympics — you know, the usual athlete coming-of-historic period story. Who amend to play him than an actual Olympic golden medal gymnast, correct?
Apparently not. While product didn't take to worry near training Mitch Gaylord to do the gymnastics, they probably should accept focused a little more on preparation him to human action. The sloppy story and overload of cliches came in second only to his less than gold-medal acting operation.
Police force Academy four: Citizens on Patrol (1987)
You know how even the funniest joke loses all its hilarity if the same person keeps telling it over and over? That's sort of what happened with the Police Academy franchise. While the original was hilarious, nobody was laughing anymore by the terminate of the sixth sequel.
Among the most painful of the follow-ups was the fourth installment, in which Commandant Lassard decides to recruit civilians to work alongside the cops. The flick seems less concerned with a plot of any sort and plays out more like a string of gags tied together in the longest YouTube compilation ever.
Ambush (1993)
Based on the comprehend solitary, Deadfall looks like a movie that could concenter plenty of unsuspecting viewers. It has Nicolas Muzzle, James Coburn and even Charlie Sheen among its cast, non to mention a Coppola in the director's chair.
As it turns out, information technology's merely a lesson in never judging a book — or a movie — by its cover. The film is basically an attempt at film noir gone terribly wrong. Although the filmmakers managed to get the look right, they forgot the part where you really need a strong plot to brand the whole matter work.
A G Words (2012)
When your movie is shot four years before anyone dares to really release it in theaters, you know you're in for a rough ride. A Thousand Words made the mistake of taking the hilarious Eddie Potato and pretty much forcing him to pull off an hour and a half of recorded silence.
Why? Because if his character spoke too much, he would exist doomed to go a magical tree in his backyard. By the time the film was over, audiences everywhere were more desperate for Irish potato to regain his oral communication than his graphic symbol was.
Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star (2011)
Despite its name, this movie ironically did more to tank the career of pb player Nick Swardson than assistance it. If you didn't encounter it, fear not. It'due south pretty much just ane long joke that keeps struggling to tell itself for the near painful 96 minutes always.
You go a socially challenged loser child who moves to 50.A. to follow in his porn-star parents' footsteps. Unless the previous sentence made yous express mirth hysterically, so trust us when we clinch y'all that yous didn't miss anything. Seriously, it doesn't get whatever funnier from in that location.
Gotti (2018)
Although it was released a mere two years ago, Gotti has already gained the pop vote for the worst mob movie of all time. John Travolta stars as infamous mobster John Gotti in this biopic, which attempts to cram the guy'due south entire life into 105 minutes.
Gotti was many things, and an interesting guy was certainly 1 of them. Unfortunately, the film fails to capture this fact and also manages to be ridiculously slow in its endeavor to entertain. Ane critic actually said he would prefer to "wake up next to a severed horse caput than ever watch Gotti again." Yikes!
Dark Crimes (2018)
In the '90s, virtually of us thought of Jim Carrey as the hysterically goofy star of films similar Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Dumb and Dumber. Then, one day, he all of a sudden stunned the world with his obvious dramatic talent in movies like The Truman Prove and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
So, when Dark Crimes came forth, it seemed promising. The motion-picture show cast Carey as a detective, and he did a pretty skillful chore with what he was given. That said, the flick was less the thriller it was intended to be and mostly just too agonizing to really watch.
The Ridiculous 6 (2015)
It seems similar we all cruel so in love with Adam Sandler during his early on career that we just can't bring ourselves to give up on him. Information technology was probably his early success that made him rich enough to start bankrolling his own movies, and things have been going downhill ever since.
Among the worst of his creations is The Ridiculous half-dozen, a would-be Western satire that is just painful to watch. Aside from its lame jokes, the film is insanely racist and disrespectful toward Native Americans — to the caste that several Native American actors walked off the gear up.
Max Steel (2016)
Non all superhero movies are created equal, as Max Steel will exist the first to grudgingly admit. While many activity films spawn toy lines, this one did things backwards and attempted to brand a movie out of an old toy from the belatedly '90s.
The movie tells the story of a boy named Max who meets a metallic alien being that can wrap around him similar a knock-off Iron Human suit. The rest of the film follows adapt with 1 superhero cliché after some other, none of which are executed one-half besides as they are in the films they shamelessly mimic.
Simon Sez (1999)
Remember when Dennis Rodman was withal around? Well, of course, in that location was someone out there who just had to ride the coattails of his 15 minutes of fame by dropping him into an action picture. Hence, Simon Sez, the sequel to Double Have, was born.
While Rodman at least had Jean-Claude Van Damme to back him up in the showtime film, he has to resort to teaming up with a pair of random computer hacking monks in the sequel. Prepare to spend the whole movie wishing he would only requite information technology upwardly and exercise a couple of dunks instead.
Return to the Blueish Lagoon (1991)
Although The Blueish Lagoon didn't even garner a 10% fresh rating from critics in 1980, that didn't stop someone out in that location from thinking a sequel would still be a great thought. 1991 saw the ill-blighted release of Return to the Blue Lagoon, which fared even worse than the original.
The film plopped then-teenagers Milla Jovovich and Brian Krause onto a desert island, threw in a little romance and a lot of flesh, and hoped for the best. Unfortunately, the movie tanked and was even accounted by one critic to be "for pervs and frustrated holidaymakers only." Ouch.
The Garbage Pail Kids Movie (1987)
Back in the '80s, there was a card collecting trend featuring the Garbage Pail Kids. With characters meant to be knock-offs of Cabbage Patch Kids, the cards featured kids that were super gross in means that only young boys find fascinating.
To the horror of parents everywhere, someone decided to turn the tendency into a truly terrifying alive-action motion-picture show. While the cartoonish creatures may have looked harmless plenty on the cards, their boob counterparts were the stuff that nightmares — and years of intense therapy — were made of.
Peak Domestic dog (1994)
While Chuck Norris may have spawned a series of hysterical memos detailing his epic levels of greatness, Top Dog is his Achilles Heel that refuses to die. How could an activeness-comedy starring not just Norris just also an ambrosial dog possibly go incorrect?
Well, the first mistake was inserting our heroes into a "family unit-friendly" moving-picture show laden with Neo-Nazis terrorists and White Supremacists. (What?) The second was having the poor taste to release it 2 weeks after the Oklahoma City bombings. All this added upwards to an ballsy fail that was near booed out of the box function.
Jury Duty (1995)
This Pauly Shore flop was plenty to leave nearly movie fans preferring bodily jury duty to sticking around until the final credits rolled on this movie. The tale revolves around an uninspired slacker who gets the bright idea to sign up for jury duty and so he can take advantage of the complimentary room and lath. (Exactly where is this jury duty?)
The rest of the film mostly focuses on him coming upwardly with the most abrasive means possible to go on the instance going, merely so he doesn't lose his temporary digs. By the end, you're sure to be just every bit frustrated as his boyfriend jurors.
Ed (1996)
You could almost hear the commonage shatter of the hearts of Friends fans around the globe when this bad boy flop came out. The sports comedy featured Matt LeBlanc — of Joey Tribbiani fame — and a lovable, baseball-playing chimpanzee named Ed. What could go wrong?
So much. Although the premise could have been a solid child feature in the right hands, the filmmakers fell back on a string of potty jokes and very fiddling else to brand the movie funny. The whole affair just seemed like such a waste for LeBlanc'south comedy skills, and it didn't practice the chimp whatsoever favors either.
iii Strikes (2000)
Starring Brian Hooks and written by the same guy who penned the hysterical Friday, this one-act gem seemed destined to be a winner. Wrong! Past the time information technology was all said and washed, critics were fix to lock this i upwardly and throw away the key.
The plot centers around a ii-strike felon who is trying his best to stay out of trouble, a chore that turns out to be surprisingly complicated. The movie relies more often than not on super lowbrow sense of humour, which might have been excusable if it had really managed to be funny.
Redline (2007)
You know those bargain bin DVDs that look like dollar store versions of popular movies? Redline is pretty much their king. Imagine The Fast and the Furious but without the plotline and with women depicted equally cipher more than arm candy. That pretty much sums up the moving picture.
Rather than attempt to tell a story of any sort, the moving picture is a blatant vanity project meant to show off a agglomeration of flashy cars, complete with the calendar girl side pieces. Save your time and flip through a car calendar at a truck stop instead.
The Nutcracker in 3D (2010)
Seriously, how exercise you even mess up The Nutcracker? Sadly, this misguided children's motion-picture show pulled it off, much to the dismay of horrified film critics everywhere. The Hollywood Reporter called it "an apparent Scrooge-similar attempt by Russian filmmaker Andrei Konchalovsky to forever ruin children'southward associations with the classic Yuletide ballet."
Despite the film'southward solid cast, which included Elle Fanning and Nathan Lane, information technology veered so far away from the much-loved traditional tale that it became something else entirely. You had one task, Nutcracker. Step abroad from the 3D glasses and stick to the beloved story.
National Lampoon'southward Golden Diggers (2003)
This sincerely misguided effort at a comedy stars Will Friedle, who played the lovably bumbling Eric Matthews on Male child Meets World, and Chris Owen as the two least funny guys in any comedy ever. The hijinks brainstorm when the boys decide to marry two older women, in hopes that they volition soon die and leave them a large inheritance.
Presently, everyone is trying to murder everyone else, and the mystery of why this hateful-spirited motion-picture show was e'er considered a comedy but keeps getting deeper. If you desire a real laugh, read the pic'due south Rotten Tomatoes reviews instead.
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002)
Look no further than this 2002 gem for proof that star power alone can't save a bad moving-picture show. Starring Lucy Liu and Antonio Banderas, the movie is about 2 government agents who are fighting over who can get their hands on some new diabolical weapon first.
An understandable plot, however, seems to be the last thing on the filmmakers' minds. The entire picture is more similar one big cord of explosions, bullets and plotlines gone rogue (and incorrect). With more than 100 bad reviews to its name, if it'south not the worst picture of all time, it's definitely pretty close.
Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas (2017)
As 1 critic summed this one up, "Saving Christmas is basically 80 minutes of Cameron lambasting Christians for non existence his equal when it comes to intolerance and shut-mindedness." The motion-picture show left both believers and nonbelievers alike wondering what had just happened to the incredibly confusing last 80 minutes of their lives.
The bizarre undertaking looks more similar something Cameron filmed on his telephone after a few too many egg nogs and is more than or less him preaching a sermon he didn't bother to research. The whole thing comes across more than like a vanity piece than an inspirational message.
Folks! (1992)
Tom Selleck, the actor who resembles a real-life Ken doll, made a major mistake when he took the lead role in the incredibly problematic Folks. In the film, Selleck's Jon Aldrich tries to manage his work and personal life while his parents, peculiarly his male parent who lives with dementia, continued to make his life more and more problematic.
Folks! was heavily panned for its negative portrayal of anyone over the age of 50, merely particularly for the low-brow humor at the expense of someone living with dementia. You couldn't find any folks in the archives who had a expert thing to say about this poorly-written movie.
A Low Downwards Muddy Shame (1994)
A flick with the likes of Keenen Ivory Wayans and Jada Pinkett Smith sounds like information technology would be a recipe for a good movie, right? Wrong. This action/comedy dud written, directed by and starring Wayans was panned for its terrible plot lines and story structure.
Legendary motion-picture show critic had some particularly cutting words for the LAPD-focused motion-picture show: "Hither is a movie nigh guns. Take away the guns, and the picture would be about cypher much. The plot, the dialogue and all just one of the characters are so shallow that, without murder for a punch line, they'd deflate." What a shame.
Precious Cargo (2016)
Sigh. Poor Bruce Willis. This movie was so bad it makes other bad movies await good. Willis played the role of Eddie Filosa, who convinces a crime boss and his gang to steal $30 million in diamonds from another crime gang in substitution for a woman.
Another film whose plot points and story structure are merely filled with guns and loftier-speed chases. The inexpensive dialog and intentionally funny moments turned into a piece of painful, gut-wrenching movie theatre. It should honestly exist retitled "Full Garbage".
Transylmania (2009)
A grouping of sexy college co-eds party abroad in a vampire-filled Romania. What could mayhap get incorrect? When the pb grapheme Rusty arranges the Eurotrip and so he could meet his Internet girlfriend Draguta, you realize how much actually will go wrong in this far-from-campy movie.
The moving picture is filled with a bunch of tired gags, monsters that aren't scary and too many characters to develop an analogousness towards whatsoever of them. For a movie from the National Lampoon franchise, this screwball comedy actually fails to evangelize any "mania" outside of pure nausea.
London Fields (2018)
The clairvoyant Nicola Half dozen, played by Amber Heard, learns that she will die at the hands of a man in her life. Naturally, she begins to engagement three men to discover which one will be her killer. That makes total sense, correct? Zilch disruptive to contemplate there.
The film grossed $168,575 on its opening weekend, with a per-screen average of $261. The Independent's critic Kaleem Aftab claimed, "Virtually scenes lack pace, are performed badly and are accompanied by a running commentary of action we can see for ourselves."
