What is the worst movie in your DVD collection?
All Monsters Attack (aka Godzilla's Revenge) Why Joel and the 'bots didn't rip on this one is beyond me. Worst. Godzilla. Movie. Ever.

I also have a copy of Jekyll and Hyde: The Musical Starring David Hasselhoff that I won at a Christmas party three and a half years ago. I've been too scared to put that thing in my computer.

1. I'd say the first Fantastic Four movie.
Edited on Sun Jul-27-08 09:57 PM by jtg33
I didn't actually spend money for it, don't worry. A former friend of my parents got it for my mom for Christmas one year, because he's completely clueless as to what sorts of movies she really likes (foreign movies, subtitled stuff, those sorts of movies). Needless to say, she didn't want it, and I offered to take it off her hands for her.

As soon as I find a $5 copy of it, the title of Worst Film in My Collection will be snatched away by Snakes on a Plane.

2. The Blue Collar Comedy Tour
My mom got it for me one Christmas and I've never viewed it. I've seen those guys on TV before so I don't need to watch the DVD to know it sucks.

3. Something About Mary
I should give it to Goodwill! Then the worst would be one of my cheap horror movies, which I have to hold onto :headbang:

5. I've got a few.
Terminator 3 was pretty bad. I've got some pretty bad kung fu movies. The 13th Warrior. Johnny Mnemonic. Total Recall (I don't even remember buying that one... maybe it belonged to The_Animator and I accidentally grabbed it when I was packing my stuff. :P)

7. Total Recall, that brings back memories.
The woman with three breasts was hot, but I can't stand Arnold Swatcheneggroll movies.

6. Toxic Spawn
Ever heard of this movie. One of the worst movies I have ever seen and I own it on VHS. The earth is attacked by alien green jello eggs.

8. The Great Gatsby
It's one of my favorite books, but Gawd, what a DISASTER of a movie. Sam Waterston saves it -- to me he is the perfect Nick Carraway -- but Redford and Farrow...ye gads.

12. I think you're right
It was a let-down. I watched it right after I read it and it sorta undid what I was feeling from the book.

10. That's only half the movie though.
2 and 3 are two halves of one movie. :P

13. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005)
Worst adaptation of Hitchhiker ever.

And I had such high hopes.

14. Definitely "Mosquito Man."
Edited on Sun Jul-27-08 10:31 PM by BlueIris
Ultra-bad sci-fi flick starring Corin Nemec. And shut up.

15. The original "Batman" movie
It hooks you right away in the opening scene when Batman is hanging off of a rope ladder over the ocean while the Boy Wonder pilots the helicopter. A shark jumps up and bites Batman's leg. Whew! Lucky for him he had some "Bat Shark Repellent" in his utility belt!

I know it was supposed to be campy. But, sheesh!

17. "Terror From Beyond the Grave" A collection of four really, really bad zombie movies.
One of them is directed by Lucio Fulci, if that tells you what to expect.
This is why stupid people and five dollar bills are a bad combination. :cry:

18. I bought ALL of the new Godzilla DVD reissues EXCEPT that one
Of course, If I'd purchased the box set, I probably would have gotten it "free" in light of what I paid for the 6 individual DVDs I now own.

But I have an old VHS tape of "Godzilla's Revenge," so I knew I had no need for it on DVD.

:toast:

20. Easy. Red Zone Cuba.
But that's why the DVD is a Mystery Science Theater DVD!

So bad.... you can't make out the story!

I love every unintelligible minute of it (as long as Mike and the 'bots are there with me)!
