Worst movies I have watched

I have seen my fair share of bad movies. I'm not a connoisseur of bad films but I do enjoy watching some bad films and somebody make fun of the films that were horribly (and somewhat horribly) made. Here's my list of the twelve of the worst films I have ever watched. 

12. Batman & Robin (1997) - The movie that killed the franchise, starring Clooney, Schwarzenegger, Uma Thurman, and many others that overacted and made Batman a laughing stock of a franchise until it was rebooted.

11. Elmo in Grouchland - a horribly made movie by a puppet handled by a pervert, this movie should have been rewritten to eliminate Elmo and replaced him with some other puppet.

10. Howard the Duck - George Lucas is known for his award-winning and financially successful movies. This is not one of them. Hopefully when Marvel/Disney make a new Howard the Duck, they don't repeat the same mistakes as this 1986 monstrosity.

9. Plan 9 from Outer Space - a movie made by Ed Wood, the godfather of bad movies, this movie has an odd plot involving space aliens animating the corpses of Tor Johnson and Vampira to take over the world. If this the ninth plan, how bad were the first eight? Bela Lugosi was in the beginning but was replaced by a guy who tried miserably to act liked him.

 Disaster Movie (8) & Meet the Spartans (7) - These two parody movies should be scrapped into the ash-heap of history. Poorly made, produced, and written by two dumb screenwriters who try to make fun of movies with horribly executed jokes and puns.

6. Santa Claus Conquers the Martians - Christmas films are hit and miss. This one is a pure miss. Martians wanting to bring Santa Claus to their home planet is about as entertaining as watching grass growing.

Hobgoblins 1 (5) & Hobgoblins 2 (4) - I watched Hobgoblins on MST3k, it made the movie entertaining. However, this does not make up for the fact that these are awful film. I tried to watch the sequel but fell asleep half-way through.

3. Beast of Yucca Flats - a  Coleman Francis film with Tor Johnson as a scientist that was hit by an atomic blast that turned him into a mindless Beast.

2. Monster a Go-Go is one of the worst films because of the production problems and the fact that the end - "there was no monster" - made this a candidate for worst film ever. I have only watched this film via MST3k. I don't think I could survive watching this without the MST3k commentary.

And the top worst film..............

Manos, the Hands of Fate - created in 1966 on a bet, this movie should be shown in Film Making 101 on how NOT to make a movie. Various errors in plot and storyline, dialogue, production, voice dubbing, lighting, and overall sense of incompetence mires this movie in a cinematic cesspool. The fact that even the director thought it was bad, one of the main actors (John Reynolds - Torgo) commits suicide after the movie is made, and that the only reason anybody remembers this is MST3k making fun of it.

Thanks for reading this post. Please leave comments below and suggest any other movies that were awful. I can list two more movies that were awful - Stars Wars I: The Phantom Menace (Jar-Jar Binks) and Cloverfield.
