**The Boys In Company C** has to be the worst war movie I’ve ever seen. That was the best climax they could come up with? A soccer game? And personally, I’d rather have Gomer Pyle watching my back than any of those whiney maggots. Marines don’t behave like that.

My pick for worst sequel is **Blues Brothers 2000**. I trust I don’t need to elaborate.

I second **Howard The Duck**. It’s the only time I ever walked out of a theater.

Driven with Stallone.

The worst part of the movie.

The young hot-shot driver gets mad and steals a F-1 racecar and drives it down the street.

Stallone, the cagey vet, steals another F-1 racecar and they have a big chase through the middle of town in freakin’ F-1 racecars.

After about 5 mins of this foolishness, they stop and Stallone takes the young guy to the side and he gives him a pep-talk. End of scene, no police to be found.

I run one red light and cops are pulling me over, but if I am driving through town 150 mph in an open-wheeled racecar in a Stallone movie, I will be OK

\*\* The Thin Red Line \*\*, the worst, most pretentious load of crap I’ve ever seen. One of the only movies I ever walked out of. After Saving Private Ryan, this was a huge disappointment.

**Death to Smoochie!** I forgot **Death to Smoochie,** a very bad, very, very bad movie with so much potential. I so wanted it to be good, and it wasn’t, oh Gods, it wasn’t good at all.

There was once a remake of “King Solomon’s Mines” starring Richard Chamberlin and Sharon Stone. Oh, it was horribly, horribly done. No continuity from shot to shot. It couldn’t decide if it was satire, or serious, or camp. Awful. I was too stunned to ask for my money back

I remember “King Solomon’s Mines”.

That was the first VHS tape I ever rented.

I have no idea why I remember that.

to the person who dissed Happy Gilmore, you must have missed 98% of the movie.

**George of the Jungle** was horrible, I fell asleep during it one time

**Robinson Crusoe on Mars** was booooooooooring

**Wild Wild West** sucked hard

**Rocky Road** , a steaming pile of crap from some independent filmmaker. It seems to have been erased from existence as I can’t even find it on rottentomatoes.

**Pootie Tang** , the only movie I ever saw in a theater that I walked out on. (The movie i wanted to see was sold out.)

**Raindrops** , another awful independent about a guy who gets whacked on the head and turns into a simpering doofus.

**Austin Powers 2 & 3** such fantastic let-downs considering the brilliance of the first one

**The Blaire Witch Project** fuckin’ dumb. Not very scary either.

Oh! I almost forgot **Mission to Mars** , one of the most awful, scientifically absurd, horribly written, terribly acted, absolute pieces of crap ever committed to film.

Is that the one where the hero never fell under the aliens control because he had a plate in his head? If so, I’ve seen it.

**Armageddon  
Bad Boys  
Ode to Billy Joe**

I actually know one of the supporting actors from **Night of the Lepus**. He once told me he still makes about $20 a years in resdiuals from it.

It gets even better; the camber on a regular road should have destroyed the suspension within a few yards.

The Man to Fell to Earth. I saw it one time and it was the only time I left the theatre in the middle.

Jeepers Creepers was the last really bad movie I saw. Glad some friends rented it so I didn’t have to pay cash to see that piece of excrement.

Oh my frickin god! I remember that movie! I remember seeing it as a little kid and being _freaked out!_ I want to go rent that now.

And the movie **Slugs** (I think) was a giant load of crap. Slugs killing people? Come on.

And the worst movie ever. Soul Survivor. I knew less about that movie after I watched it than before.
