The worst film ever?

Post by Sionnach Glic »

Well, what film do you consider to be the worst ever made, and why?

Personaly, I'm going to have to nominate "Manos" The Hands of Fate.

Plan Nine from Outer Space. At least Manos has an entertaining MST3K version. ;)

True. But I've had the misfortune of seeing the non-MST3K version of "Manos". Dear Christ, that film was an abomination.

I was reading about Manos on Wikipedia yesterday. The Official Worst Film Of All Time, apparently.
However, the worst film I've seen is National Lampoon's Men In White.

EDIT: Though I haven't seen Manos or Plan 9, another candidate for worst film, or any Uwe Boll film, some of which are talked about as been the worst films ever.

Incubus. I don't mind foreign-language films, but that was in a language that nobody spoke - ever. Sorry, Mr. Shatner.

Incubus was the Bill Shatner "masterpiece" that was filmed entirely in Esperanto.

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation and Highlander 2 were bad for what came before.

Atonement was so bad that it's up for Picture of the Year at the Oscars.
