Over 200 posts and no mention of **Wishmaster**? Not only is it the worst movie ever made, but I believe it to be the worst movie possible. Here’s a hint: Avoid any movie by Wes Craven. Also, **Anaconda**. A movie about giant snakes. While I didn’t see it in the theater, **Feeders 2** I bought for $2.50. Me and my mom watched it. I still wonder why I felt she deserved to endure that movie. Battlefield Earth, Wing Commander, nothing compares to this shitfest. I wholey recommend reading Something Awful’s review of it: [http://www.somethingawful.com/article.php?id=179](http://www.somethingawful.com/article.php?id=179) Also, Eight Legged Freaks. Dumbest movie I’ve seen in years. ---

My contribution to this thread is Megaforce, starring Barry Bostwick. It was a science fiction, action adventure made in the late seventies. Normally that’s a good thing, but the movie was painful. It must have had a really low budget because Barry Bostwick and Michael Beck wore tight silver lame’ spandex jumpsuits with matching headbands. IThe vehicles looked like RV’s stolen from the showroom and covered with cheap pieces of foam. In fact, the whole production looked like the set had been stolen piecemeal from different studios, hurriedly filmed, and returned the next day. I’m surprised that Megaforce hasn’t been shown on television yet. ---

Agree with **Armageddon**. I was astounded that not one moment was enjoyable. ---

i feel i would be remiss in my duty if i did not mention “along came a spider” with morgan freeman. even worse than the dent in my wallet was having to eat the s\*\*\* and agree with my date that it was a “pretty good movie”.
