Talk about that new Hemingway adaptation or anything else in the theatre.

i just watched Troll 2. see that movie. you will laugh your [spoiler]bleep[/spoiler] off. it's worse than baby geniuses 2. it has terrible dialogue, acting, plot, costume design, set design, it's just the perfect storm of bad elements of a movie. i don't care if you have to pay $20 to see it, just do it. you will not regret it.

Elves wins in my book.

Here's why:
- The plot is about a race of elves genetically bred by the Nazis to create a superarmy.
- This plot will begin when an escaped Nazi gets his granddaughter and daughter (who is one person) to begin this superrace when she becomes impregnated by one of the elves.
- The movie stars Dan Haggerty (yes, TV's Grizzly Adams) as a badass department store Santa named Mike McGavin who has to stop the elves.
- These are actual quotes from the movie (helpfully provided by IMDB):
Kirsten's Mother: Your father's in the study.
Kirsten: What? No. Grandfather's in the study. Dad is dead.
Kirsten's Mother: Your grandfather is your grandfather AND your father!

Kirsten: [after catching her brother spying on her] I'm your bleeping sister.
Kirsten's Brother: Yeah, you've got bleeping big tits and I'm going to tell everybody I saw them.

Mike McGavin: Tell me about the connection between the elves and the Nazis.

Having seen none of these movies, my vote goes to Elves, based on vcalzone's description.

Although a few of those quotes sound a little AD.

Example:


Kirsten's Mother: Your grandfather is your grandfather AND your father!

Buster: You lied to me! You said my father was my father, but my uncle is my father... My father is my uncle!

O.K., maybe not the same.

looks like i have to pull out the big guns. there are no trolls in troll 2, only goblins. a family trades houses with another for a week for vacation and they go to the small town of nilbog (gee, i wonder what that spells backwards?). the goblins are vegetarians. they eat people by giving them some green stuff which turns people into half-human/half-plants, which just so happens to be the goblins' favorite food!

this is involved in one of the more well-known scenes in the movie. they are sitting down to eat a meal prepared by the family that they switched homes with, and it has the green stuff all over it. apparently they're too hungry to notice green cake frosting on corn on the cob. the main character, joshua, a boy about 10 years old, doesn't know what he should do to save his family. thankfully, his dead grandfather seth knocks on the window, and tells him that he has to do something. not helping much there. then grandpa seth freezes time, but only for 30 seconds. if he has this power, he could've given his grandson a bit more time than that. joshua thinks, then repeats "i must, i must do it!" to himself before he stands on top of the table, unzips his fly, and pees all over the food. obviously his family is upset, and his dad utters one of the greatest lines in cinematic history:

"Do you see this writing...? Do you know what it means...? Hospitality. And you can't piss on hospitality! I WON'T ALLOW IT!"

besides that, there's an incredible amount of horrible writing in this movie, which makes it very entertaining, to say the least.

Well, no one's going to top that. Let's call it a draw.

You want to hear of a bad movie? Try Halloween 3 Season of the Witch. It's a Halloween movie so it must be entertaining right? WRONG! But it must have Micheal Myers in it right? WRONG! Ok well I'm sure its at least scary. WRONG! Is the acting good? NO! Is the story good NO!

I saw this movie on TV yesterday and I would not recomended it to anybody.The first problem is that its a Halloween sequel but doesn't have Micheal Myers in it so truthfully its not a sequel which means the title is wrong. You want to hear the story outline. Halloween masks that on Halloween night will destroy the wearers head causing snakes and insects to spew out. The acting is dreadful the, visuals are appauling, and everything about just makes me want to puke all over your head. This is definetely one for the books. I'd say that it's got my vote for the worst horror movie of all time.
Hey, Mikey, relax. It’s just a giant banana.

Has anyone else seen American Pie 4: Band Camp? I'm pretty sure it's the worst movie I've ever seen (although Halloween 3 Season of the Witch sounds like it might beat it).
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words- "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Give me my money back, you...

To the best of my recollection, here is a list of the Top 5 worst movies that I actually paid to see in the movie theater:

1. Amityville 3-D
2. Quigley Down Under
3. Perfect
4. April Fools' Day
5. Legend (starring Tom Cruise)

Oh, and I even saw "Ishtar" in the movie theater. Call me weird, but I love that movie!

And between 1985-1991 I saw "Rocky Horror" about 20 times. I still can't tell if its a truly bad movie or not, but its a blast!

I have to disagree. It's a wonderful movie! This is one of those horror movies, like Friday the 13th part something, 'Jason Takes Manhattan', that is so bad it's brilliant. I'd rather watch it than any of the Michael Myers ones. A much misunderstood classic for me.

Tom Cruise related awfulness: I remember trying to explain Far & Away to a friend. She still won't believe that it actually exists. Oh, God, the accents hurt me.

Like during The DaVinci Code, to keep your esteem of Ron Howard intact you have to close your eyes and ears and think of Arrested.
