Here are the ten worst movies of all time, according to Rotten Tomatoes

From a casual look thru, it looks like Adam Sandler is in several of these movies.

Gigli is at 6% on Rotten Tomatoes and has 186 reviews, so it is surprising it’s not here. Maybe there are many many more at 6% and you had to be below 6% to make it on the list?

I think the worst movie I’ve seen is “Silence of the hams”, which was a really bad parody of Silence of the lambs by a less than mediocre Italian comedian who somehow managed to involve Mel Brooks in a cameo

I recently saw Ed Woods’ Bride of the Monster in a theater… Just stellar stuff.

If the philistines who made this list only watched the old classics… This list is full of modern movies.

This.

A bunch of friends and I blew lecture to catch the first matinee. We were not pleased.

“Highlander 2: The Sickening, there should have been only one” was our name for it afterwards.

All you people talking about Highlander 2 are really confusing me. There is no such movie. They went straight from Highlander to Highlander 3. I have no idea why they skipped #2, but they did. Highlander 2 does not exist. Don’t try to convince me otherwise.

Where is United Passions?

With budget of 30 million dollars, a Rotten Tomatoes score of 0, and a MetaCritic score of 1 (!), it opened in 10 cities with a weekend gross of 918 dollars. It pushes the idea that FIFA is a great and noble organization, fighting corruption and enabling soccer to save the world.

I guess for a movie to be on that list, a lot of people need to actually see it to realize just how awful it is.

I only ever walked out on one movie. I think I was 7 years old so maybe it wasn’t exactly my choice. We all left. It was…Yellow Submarine, which I see is regarded as innovative in animation and has a 97% tomatometer. Maybe I need to rewatch.

Ok, your comment is going to force me to break character, which I didn’t want to do, but that’s ok. The Star Wars prequels are bad movies, especially the Phantom Menace. The sequels aren’t great, and the Rise of Skywalker is almost as bad as the Phantom Menace. The Matrix sequels aren’t great, but only the last one from a couple of years ago is actually a bad movie. None of those movies makes me want to pretend that they never existed in the first place. I just wish they were better. Highlander 2 makes me wish, and often pretend, that it never got made at all. There is nothing redeemable about that film at all. Hell, the subsequent films and tv series also pretend as if that movie doesn’t exist, and I can’t think of another film series where that’s happened.

Batman & Robin (1997).

Not just the worst movie ever, but as one reviewer put it, the worst thing ever in the entire history of stuff.

I have to agree with you. I really liked Highlander and I don’t know why they decided to make such a mess.

I’m still actually mad at myself for sitting through a free viewing of Meet the Parents.

No MST3K fans in the house? Weird. The crew determined that Manos: Hand of Fate was the worst movie ever made. And it is terrible, I can’t say I’ve seen a worse movie. [Then again, I’ve steered fully clear of Ishtar, Gigl and Human Centipede]

We can’t comment because the Master wouldn’t like it.

One of my favorite running (err…foot-dragging) gags on MST3K involves Manos

Manos wouldn’t have met the criteria, not having 20 reviews on RT (not that I agree with their criteria).

Regarding Ishtar, I recently saw that Gary Larson has apologized for his comic “Hell’s Video Store” (with Ishtar as the only available film). Apparently he got to see it and didn’t think it was that bad.
