60 Worst Movies Ever: Hollywood Is Not Always About Blockbusters And Superhits!

The Failed Jaws Revenge

For the most part, the Jaws franchise was excellent, with action-packed, thrilling films that were a box office hit. Yet, the last installment of the series, Jaws: The Revenge was anything but spectacular, with the movie a massive flop.

The storyline was all over the place, with Ellen Brody believing that a shark followed them all the way to the Bahamas in quest of revenge. We have no idea what Steven Spielberg had in mind when coming up with the flick, but it's probably the worst one the producer has worked on yet.

 

The Disaster That Was Mac and Me

Any fan of sci-fi and extraterrestrial-themed movies has probably watched the flop film Mac and Me and got disappointed. Based on a story of an alien Mac, who made friends with a boy in a wheelchair, Eric Cruise, after running away from a NASA establishment, the flick is nothing spectacular.

While it was all not so good, there were some thrilling, notable performances, especially from Jade Calegory, who did well in his role. Still, with massive comparisons to E.T. the Extraterrestrial movie and poor product placement, Mac and Me wasn't what the fans hoped to get.

 

Unrated Bolero Failure

When a film is nominated for several awards, it means it's been quite successful, but some, like Bolero, were successful failures, judging by the nine Golden Raspberry Awards it took home. Despite its star-studded cast of Bo Derek and directed by her then-husband John Derek, the film was a colossal disappointment, earning Worst Picture, Worst Director, and Worst Screenplay, among other flop accolades.

The story is about a college graduate on a quest to find her first romantic experience wherever the perfect man would be in the world. While the plot is relatable, the 1984 film wasn't received well by fans and critics alike

 

The Return To The Blue Lagoon Didn't Work Out

For the most part, sequels follow a modesty successful first film, but in the Blue Lagoon series based on The Garden of Wrath book, things were different. The first of the bunch, The Blue Lagoon was not as thrilling, but the second one, Return To The Blue Lagoon marked the end of the series; that's how bad it was.

While it had a fantastic cast that included Brian Krause and Milla Jovovich, the script was entirely predictable and had nothing that would leave anyone watching at the edge of their seats. It's no wonder the flick got a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes!

 

Madhouse Was Madly Depressing

The whole idea of making comedy films is to make people laugh and have a light moment. Yet, that's not what Madhouse did, with the 1990 flick trying too hard to bring in the humor, to no success.

Featuring John Larroquette and Kristie Alley, the movie is about a stockbroker and his journalist wife who are leading the ultimate California life before unwanted guests interfere with their daily schedules, and they're trying to get rid of of of them. Unfortunately, the production didn't work out as expected, and it expectedly earned a 0% rating.

 

Dream A Little Dream Was Not So Rosy

Imagine starring in a film where, as an elderly couple, you and your significant other ends up in the bodies of two high school students. Starring the 'Corey duo' of Corey Haim and Corey Feldman, Dream A Little Dream was expected to be a box office hit.

Still, that's not what happened, with the movie making a paltry $2.5 million in the opening weekend, and the earnings significantly dropped by over 50% in the following weekend. The production was undoubtedly a flop, which goes to show if you put a fantastic cast with a below-par script, chances are the end product won't be top-notch.

 

The Slugger's Wife Batted Out

Most sports-related movies are usually thrilling to watch, and if mixed with some bit of drama, then more often than not, it's a hit than a miss. Yet, The Slugger's Wife, based on a story written by Neil Simon that's about a baseball star who falls in love with a singer, didn't live up to the expectations.

The audience wasn't impressed with the film, with some critics claiming that it was one of the "least credible baseball films" made, and it scored a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and we don't think it can get worse than that!

 

Staying Alive Made A Mess Of Saturday Night Fever

Sometimes producing sequels might be a good idea, and other times, like in this case, it wasn't such a brilliant course of action. After the Saturday Night Fever film directed by Sylvester Stallone and written and produced by the legendary duo of Norman Wexler and Robert Stigwood achieved massive success, they decided to do a sequel.

Staying Alive was born, starring John Travolta, and while it did well commercially, raking in a cool $65 million, the film was not well received by critics. The upside of the production is, they got to make a fortune out of it!

 

Police Academy 4: Citizens On Patrol Franchise Cop Out

The first three films in the Police Academy franchise did well; they were funny and entertaining, but with the fourth one, Police Academy 4: Citizens On Patrol things started going haywire. The movie was the worst-rated of the bunch, and all for a good reason; there was no sense of humor that fans had come to love.

It marked the end of Steve Guttenberg playing the role of Carey Mahoney, and with a rating of 0%, it clearly didn't live up to the expectations of its predecessors. In an honest review, Rotten Tomatoes described it as "completely, thoroughly and astonishingly unfunny." Ouch!

 

Precious Cargo Heavy On Bruce Willis

Bruce Willis is among the greatest actors of all time, and his breathtaking performances have earned him Hollywood legendary status. Yet, despite his fame, not all his movies are thrilling, with Precious Cargo being one of his flops.

The film follows Bruce, as Eddie Filosa, who manages to persuade a mafia boss to steal some diamonds and in exchange he'd get a woman. The plot was as generic as they come, and it isn't surprising that it got the lowest rating that can be given, 0%. It seems not everything the talented actor touches turns into gold after all!

 

Highlander II: The Quickening Was A High-Grade Zero

Suffice to say that Highlander II: The Quickening was a total flop, just like its predecessor, The Highlander. One can only wonder why the producers thought making a sequel was a good idea. A wild guess would be that Highlander II was probably supposed to redeem the original movie's reputation, but alas, whatever tiny shred of glory the former movie was holding on to was tarnished after the release of this second installment.

The movie was released in 1991, and it managed to earn a glaring zero-rating on Rotten Tomatoes. A seemingly redeeming quality would be the fact that it grossed more than its original.

 

Pinocchio With The Downfall Syndrome

The movie Pinocchio was the huge spot on Roberto Benigni's otherwise budding acting career. After winning awards for Best Foreign Language Film, Best Score, and Best Actor at the Oscars following the success of Life is Beautiful, things were looking up for the actor and the world patiently anticipated his next big break.

Sadly, that awaited big break turned out to be a total disappointment when Benigni featured in Pinocchio in 2002. The English-dubbed live-action was described as annoying, creepy, and lacking in humor. Ladies and gentlemen, another zero-rated movie by Rotten Tomatoes.

 

The Bad News Bears Go To Japan Meant Bad News For The Cast

The third and final series of the Bad News Bears trilogy was simply bad news; even the cast had to agree that the movie was a colossal failure. Sometimes sequels can be a total waste of time, and this is proof of that. As a matter of fact, the sports comedy franchise was tagged as "one of the worst films of the '70s."

So many things were wrong with the movie, but one thing that stood out was that for a movie about little leaguers, only little was shown about baseball. Rather, the movie focused on Sumo wrestling. Then the one baseball game that we do get to see was poorly directed.

 

Dark Tide, A Prelude To Dark Times

This movie would make you question the benefits of shooting a shark movie. The thriller movie had low ratings for its dire dialogs and poor plot. A rather humorous critic said that only the sharks emerge with credits from the film. If Halle Berry had known that it would turn out as bad as this, she probably wouldn't have agreed to feature in the movie in the first place, but what's done is done.

The adventure/mystery thriller follows a female marine biologist who tried to stay in business even after the demise of her crew by sharks. With a low rating and negative reviews, what more can we say?

 

American Anthem And Its Bad Landing

Two things make viewers stayed glued to a movie: suspense and characters. When the characters don't deliver, and there's little to no suspense, then it's "boy bye" to the movie. That is a simple summary of what happened to the sports drama American Anthem. There really wasn't anything in the film to keep people attracted enough to give it a positive review.

More surprising is the fact that Olympic gold medal-winning gymnast Mitchell Gaylord played the role of a gymnast in this. Viewers expected an A-class performance because of the fact, but we all know how that ended.

 

Gotti Got Mobbed

Gotti is a 2018 movie that follows a young John Gotti who was raised on the streets of New York but soon found himself deep in the heart of the powerful Gambino family. If only Gotti could have also wormed his way into the hearts of his viewers, but given the low ratings and the vital detail that the movie was nominated for six Razzies, our dear outlaw failed to do just that.

The mob movie was criticized for being poorly written and devoid of tension. Really, when a mob film isn't tension-filled, what else is there to watch?

 

The Ridiculous 6 Was Not Worth It

An orphan found his five half brothers, all outlaws, and band up as The Ridiculous 6 to save their rebellious father. Although the movie had more views in 30 days than other Netflix releases when it came out in 2015, that didn't save the movie from some serious backlash.

One major reason why the film was highly criticized was the racial undertone that was scattered across its scenes. Adam Sandler's films have been falling on the wrong side of the bar for a while, and this movie turned out to be a perfect description of just how over the bar his movies had gone.

 

Cringey Is All You Get With Bucky Larson: Born To Be A Star

We have to give it up to Happy Madison Productions for its outstanding contribution to comedy. Nonetheless, the company did miss the mark with this particular film, which, to be fair, happens to the best of us.

Not even one out of the 36 critics from Rotten Tomatoes gave the movie a positive review. We summed up most of what these reviewers had to say and briefly put; this film provides a dull experience, and if humor is what you’re going for, you might want to consider other options. There’s nothing to laugh about here.

 

Fred: The Movie - You’re In For An Annoying Experience

Just from this movie's title, you might have already figured there's nothing exciting about it, and you're right. Nickelodeon saw the opportunity to make a profit off a mega vlogger's name, which, to their credit, is brilliant when the idea is properly implemented. The problem is that people are interested in the actual content creator, Lucas Cruikshank, more than they care about a fictional film about his life.

Audiences of this production took to the web and expressed their unpleasant viewing experience. One critic likened the movie to A Serbian Film, which had a similar storyline and an equally annoying effect on its viewers.

 

The Garbage Pail Kids Was A Painful Experience

We can’t even begin to imagine what the financiers of The Garbage Pail Kids felt after investing $1 million on the film, only for it to make 600K more from its sales. Contrary to the Trading Cards series that it was adapted from, this movie was a major flop.

Based on the votes cast on Rotten Tomatoes, everyone who had watched the film agreed that it was a painful experience to sit through. A movie critic from the New York Times took it even a step further, pointing out that the movie is highly inappropriate for the kids it mainly targets and even adults of any age.

 

The Master Of Disguise Had An Immature Comedic Approach

Everyone expected that The Master Of Disguise would be a hit as actor Dana Carvey, previously of Saturday Night Live played the film's lead role. Unfortunately, not even the star’s incredible sense of humor would save him on this one.

According to the movie critics, the jokes were childish and quickly proved to have been written without much sense. Nonetheless, even the worst of things have some good to them. Audiences of the movie praised the costumes and makeup used throughout this production, expressing that they were each very appealing.

 

Daddy Day Camp Is A Bad Sequel To An Incredible Film

Sometimes, the best thing that producers of a movie can do is bask in the glory of their successful film and move on to the next thing. Ask anyone who watched Daddy Day Care and they will tell you that the family comedy was delightful. Yet, the Daddy Day Camp sequel did everything but amuse its audience.

This movie only garnered a one percent vote on Rotten Tomatoes. Why? Viewers thought some acts meant to further the storyline and have a humorous effect were instead distasteful. As for the jokes used by the characters, they lacked originality, which was disappointing.

 

Jack And Jill, Great Cast, Bad Script

Here’s one thing that producers seemed not to have learned; just because you have A-list actors as part of your cast, it doesn’t guarantee a box office hit. You still have to put in the work and invest in a good script that audiences can enjoy.

We’re baffled that a movie with Adam Sandler, Al Pacino, and Katie Holmes could be a flop. So bad was this movie that it only had negative reviews on every platform. Not even a single soul was star-struck enough to write something good about this movie. Yikes!

 

The Return Of The Living De** II Sequel Lacked Originality

The original The Return Of The Living De** movie was a great treat to the audience, with just the right dose of horror and comedy infused into the plot. According to the reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, there were too many jokes that fell flat on this zombie comedy flick sequel.

As for every other scene that was actually funny in the second film, it sounded and felt exactly like the original movie's scenes, which is just laziness on the producers' part. It doesn't matter how funny a joke is, you can't tell it to the same person twice; that's an unwritten rule that everyone should know by now.

 

Problem Child Had Problems With Its Home Audience

For a movie that did incredibly well in theaters, we were surprised that Problem Child got a zero rating on Rotten Tomatoes. We’re not just talking about a movie with average success that made just enough profit to get off the flop category.

This is a movie that made $54 million only in the U.S and an extra $72 million worldwide. This favorable outcome even had producers making not one but two sequels of the film. Well, maybe watching a movie from home alone and at a theater with others makes a huge difference?

 

Folks! Failed For Making Light Of Serious Issues

We all love a good laugh. It's good for the soul and makes this mostly stressful life easier. Even so, it's frustrating to sit through a conversation with someone that makes light of serious issues, which is what Folks! did, just cleverly, in the form of art.

The manner in which the movie handled the theme of car accidents and dementia was simply awful, and the audience was having none of it. According to movie critics, we are better placed as a society to handle grave issues such as those mentioned when we give them the importance they deserve.

 

If Only The Talking Dog on Look Who’s Talking Now Was Mute

Most of us will admit this in a heartbeat; the only talking dog that we like is Scooby-Doo. This is just us, but if you want a successful movie with a talking animal, eliminate the actual humans and have it fully animated.

Look Who’s Talking Now was confusing for the audience. One minute, people are talking among themselves, and the next, the dog is excusing itself to give its opinion. One word; terrible. In our opinion, this film could have, without a doubt, performed better if it were cartoonized.

 

A Low Down Dirty Shame Was A Disgrace

There's nothing as important as knowing your lane and sticking to it, especially in show business. Here, it's up to the fans to decide whether you deserve a thumbs up or getting booed. The Wayans brothers established quite a name in comedy, but when Keenen Ivory Wayans chose to write, direct and star in an action film, that was a complete failure.

A Low Down Dirty Shame was the title of the 1994 movie, and although it had appearances by A-list stars like Jada Pinkett Smith, the outcome was a total disappointment, garnering a zero percent score on Rotten Tomatoes.

 

Wagons East Went South Fast

We mainly remember Wagons East as the last movie actor John Candy worked on before his demise from a heart attack. The Western adventure comedy was released in August 1994 and seemed to borrow a lot of its theme from Mel Brook’s work. Nonetheless, it ended up having the opposite effect, failing to come off funny and entertaining.

Candy starred alongside Richard Lewis in the film, but they were met by a zero percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes and abysmal performance. So they indeed fell off the wagon on this one.

 

Shadow Conspiracy Was Farfetched

When the 1997 action and drama film Shadow Conspiracy was released, the directors must have been sure they were headed for the Oscars. They had the perfect cast of Linda Hamilton, Charlie Sheen, and Donald Sutherland and must have considered the storyline genius.

Nonetheless, this would turn out to be a perfect lesson of never counting your eggs before they hatch because audiences found the plot of the movie surreal and super dull. So instead of the expected Academy award, a zero percent rating was waiting for the crew on Rotten Tomatoes.

 

Troll 2 Went A Bit Overboard

The downside of filmmaking is that when you spend tons of dollars hiring the best cast and shooting what you consider a classic hit movie, you never quite know what is waiting for you on the other side. Claudio Fragrasso did his best directing the 1990 supernatural comedy-horror Troll 2, but fans had a different opinion.

Although he had tried to create the perfect storyline of a family running away from vegetarian goblins who intended to mutate them into plants for food, most viewers trashed the film. Nonetheless, the time has a way of turning things around because now it has a cult following.

 

Exorcist II: The Heretic Was Failure-Possessed

Creating a sequel to an already successful work of art is a double-edged sword. It could either result in one hitting the jackpot or in shooting oneself in the foot. Exorcist II: The Heretic was the latter because audiences and critics regarded it as one of the worst films ever made.

The movie was written by William Goodhart and directed by John Boorman, based on the 1971 novel by William Peter Blatty. It portrayed Regan MacNeil still recovering from being possessed, but fans felt that it could not match the franchise's first installment.

 

Caligula Was Not Meant For Kids

Penthouse men's magazine's founder Bob Guccione had intended to make a classic erotic historical drama when he produced 1979's Caligula. The movie starred actor Malcolm McDowell and followed the rise and fall of Roman Emperor Caligula. Although the plan was to have an adult-rated film with a feature narrative, audiences perceived it as something else.

In the seventies, when the picture was released, viewers were pretty conservative. As a result, the many explicit scenes in the flick were disturbing to most people, resulting in the work getting banned in numerous countries.

 

The Apple Fell Far From The Tree

Creators of the 1980 science fiction musical comedy The Apple had a brilliant idea focusing on the themes of conformity vs. rebellion, referring to the biblical story of Adam and Eve. Still, it appears that the serpent tricked them, too, resulting in them getting kicked out of the Garden of Eden by fans.

The movie stars Catherine Mary Stewart living in a futuristic 1994 where she lands a record deal with an evil label Boogalow International Music. Writer and director Menahem Golan had tried to create a witty storyline, but viewers perceived it as one of the worst musicals ever.

 

Ishtar Was A Dramatic Nightmare

American action-adventure-comedy film Ishtar, starring Dustin Hoffman, was meant to be a classic story. In it, some lousy comedy writers take a trip to Morocco for a show, only to find themselves entrapped right in the middle of a Cold War standoff.

Although the script was somewhat perfect, the movie's production proved to be the actual drama. Unfortunately, the crew didn't seem to get along, and a change in studio management in between saw the post-production phase take a new turn. As a result, the picture became a total flop at the box office.

 

Hobgoblins Was An Absolute Rip-Off

Although not every filmmaker has a mammoth budget to work with like the major studios in Hollywood, one can still try to produce good quality even in a low-budget film. Rick Sloan failed in movie creation with Hobgoblins, possibly because he chose to do all the work of being the independent comedy horror film's writer, director, producer, cinematographer, and editor.

As with any other case of someone purporting to be a jack of all trades, the small monster picture had inferior quality, and most people considered it a total rip-off. Not even the tiny demon-like creatures portrayed could save it.

 

Parting Shots Was A Deserved Goodbye

Producers of the 1999 British dark comedy film Parting Shots had no idea how prophetic the title was because soon enough, audiences would be kicking them to the curb and bidding them goodbye. The cast selection was okay with Ben Kingsley, Oliver Reed, Felicity Kendal, and Chis Rea, but the plot proved to be a disaster.

The movie's release in the United Kingdom turned into a circus, with the national press thoroughly criticizing the storyline. As a result, it ended up being considered one of the worst films ever made.

 

Epic Movie - More Like Epic Failure

There was so much marketing hype behind 2007's Epic Movie, and all the promotions helped the low-budget flick to earn almost $87 million worldwide. Audiences who trooped to the movie expecting epic laughs came out terribly disappointed.

The film attempted to satirize some of the biggest productions of its time, including Harry Potter, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Instead of being a hilarious parody movie, however, this turned out to be one of the worst jokes in cinema.

 

The Last Air Bender, A Mind-Bending Mess

Fans of the popular animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender were looking forward to the live-action cinematic version. The film was co-produced by M. Night Shyamalan, so expectations were high. Sadly, the film was not able to deliver.

It did not help that it's production was delayed several times because of various difficulties, pushing back the film's release to 2010. Previews of the film were already scathing, and the movie opened to universally bad reviews from both the film critics and the series' dedicated fans.

 

Cats, The Purr-fect Disaster

When it was announced that Andrew Lloyd Webber's beloved stage musical Cats would be translated to the big screen, reactions were mostly positive. Once the film came out, however, audiences were shaking their heads in disbelief. Nothing worked from the plot, the visuals, and the CGI as the movie whimpered its way through its theatrical run.

Although Cats was nowhere near as entertaining as its stage musical version, at least we'll always have the hilarious memes and social media posts to remember it by. Some of the best laughs of 2019 came from audience reactions to the film. Even many of the cast members couldn't help but pile on.

 

Ballistics Faced a Severe Suffering

Anyone who has seen Ballistic: Ecks Vs. Sever will surely agree that this movie missed the mark by at least a mile. With its disconcerted plot, unoriginal action sequences, and dialogue that will make viewers cringe for weeks, it’s no wonder this movie got a 0% rating from critics at Rotten Tomatoes.
It was truly a waste because Ballistic: Ecks Vs. Sever starred Antonio Banderas and Lucy Liu at the peak of their careers. The two have starred in otherwise decent action films, so it’s disappointing how this flick turned out.

 

There Are No Words For A Thousand Words

Ever browsed through the movie selections in the local listings or the streaming platform and judged what to watch based on the plot descriptions? When one sees the storyline for A Thousand Words, which revolves around a magic tree and a totally ridiculous premise, the first instinct will be to say "No".

Even though Eddie Murphy and Kerry Washington top-billed this feature, the film was a letdown from the get-go. Critics and viewers definitely did not hold back their words when describing how much they disliked this production.

 

Dark Crimes Simply Could Not Be Salvaged

Let’s consider the premise of this particular movie. A detective realizes that there is an uncanny resemblance between a popular novel and an unsolved crime. So to solve the mystery, he begins to investigate the author. Sounds promising, and viewers had good things to say about actor Jim Carrey’s performance.

That, however, could not save the day. The movie is so bad that some critics had pretty harsh things to say about it, and we can’t help but reluctantly agree. Critic’s rating rose to 0%, and audiences were unimpressed enough to give a 30% score. Over-production has been determined as the culprit.

 

Friday Was Great, But Not 3 Strikes

The movie Friday, co-written by hip-hop producer DJ Pooh, was well received by its audience as fun and pertinent. DJ Pooh is the one whose directorial debut was 3 Strikes.

Unlike Friday, 3 Strikes has neither the charm nor an iota of humor. Critics can be counted on for making merciless comments, and one called it completely free from laughter. Others said that the movie was unnecessarily repetitive. The storyline of running away from cops to avoid being arrested and ending up in prison is not ideal comedy material.

 

Cabin Fever Remake Gives You Headaches

The original version of Cabin Fever was not well received, and the ratings on different websites were pretty average. The moviemakers went too far with their confidence, thereby creating a reprisal masterpiece with a "perfect" nil rating.

This film is about a group of young friends staying at a remote cabin and facing the threat of a flesh-eating virus. The movie is so dull that critics have commented that they took the pain of watching it so that others don't have to do the same. The advice is to watch the original movie if interested.

 

Why Did Redline Make Us Laugh?

The summary of Redline sounds like a rip-off of the fantastic Fast & Furious franchise. The central character Natasha wants to be a singer and is also an ace driver. A group of guys fight to secure Natasha on their team, and one of them kidnaps her.

Directed by stunt coordinator Andy Cheng in this new role, nothing can save this movie from being called horrible. It is so bad that even the fact that it is a directorial debut can not excuse it. Furthermore, the acting and dialogues are so banal that they make one laugh but not with the right purpose.

 

Max Steel Caught Rust Too Soon

We all have had bizarre childhood dreams regarding superheroes. That's how several superhero movies have done so well at the box office. But not all movies are meant to do well. Take Max steel, for instance.
The movie was about a teenager who moves to a new town with his mother and realizes that he can emit the most potent power in the universe. After teaming up with an alien who wants to utilize his abilities, the duo is unstoppable. Unfortunately, as gripping as the plot sounds, it was devoid of any characterization and plain boring.

 

Simon Sez Is What Happens When Things Are Not Meant To Be

After a successful career as a basketball player, former NBA star Dennis Rodman decided to try a hand at acting. But he should have selected a script that would've helped him at least prove his merit, only he didn't.

Some actors can carry a movie without supporting characters, but it is not easy for newcomers like Dennis. For an action thriller, Simon sez surely had nothing thrilling about it. If you want to watch a movie in this genre that has all cliches but still isn't fun, Simon sez is a great option.

 

Baby Geniuses Was Not A Genius Idea After All

Babies are smart; we can't deny that. Sometimes they surprise us by doing things we wouldn't have expected them even to grasp. Having an idea about a movie where babies are geniuses and have all the knowledge in the world was probably worth trying, but this movie shouldn't have made it to screen.

Other than the lack of storytelling in the whole plot, the actors also looked embarrassed to be a part of it. Ideas like baby geniuses are good discussion topics, but one shouldn't waste 95 minutes on it.

 

One Missed Call Is Worth Missing

Movies should make us feel the genre that they belong to. If we want to watch a horror movie, we want to feel the fear and terror in our bones. Maybe not too much, but at least something should be there to make these movies work. One missed call missed the point of being a supernatural thriller.

With the same old scare tactics and a flat plot, this movie failed to impress the critics and received negative reviews. It has been regarded as one of the worst J-horror movies ever made.

 

The Last Days of American Crime Punished Us All

When a movie with a star-studded cast is released, people have mixed reviews. Going by what usually happens, it is either a binge-worthy movie or the worst one ever exists; there's no in-between and The Last Days of American Crime was the latter.

The supposedly interesting plot had people who wanted to commit one last crime before the government wiped the server is an overused one, and it's high time Netflix understands it. Unfortunately, even the stars couldn't save the grace of this movie, and it wasn't talked about much.

 

London Fields Botched Its Source Material

London Fields, the 2018 movie, was an unsatisfactory adaptation of a well-loved book. It was deemed a failure due to its negligence to research its source material thoroughly, so much that its score on Rotten Tomatoes was zero.

The story is intriguing enough to capture the audiences’ attention, but its eclectic cast, careless execution, and lack of attention to detail led critics to issue roughly worded criticism. One critic went as far as saying that the only reason for people to watch this movie would be “morbid curiosity.” A harsher review would be hard to find.

 

The Disappointments Room Turned Theatres Into Its Namesake

The Disappointments Room was directed by the same D.J. Caruso, who directed excellent movies like Disturbia and Eagle Eye. Naturally, the expectation with this psychological thriller was quite high, and the letdown was extreme too.

The critics did not go easy on their reviews, saying things like “The Disappointments Room was a thriller that was completely thrill-free.” There was a consensus that all the cast members, including Kate Beckinsale, regretted signing up for this movie. As for the audience who spent money buying tickets, they were left disappointed as well.

 

BloodRayne Had No Game

Very few movies that are an adaptation of video games have reached the favorites list of critics. We still had high hopes for BloodRayne, a renowned video game adaptation directed by none other than Uwe Boll, the schlock-maestro. The game was complex and attention-capturing, but this did not translate to the movie.

It is an understatement to say that the production did not live up to its expected standards. The vampire flick got less than 4 percent on rotten tomatoes, and you would be hard-pressed to find movies with worse reviews than this one.

 

The Legend Of Hercules Was an Epic Flop

Nothing less than epicness is expected of a movie that tries to depict the life and adventures of the legendary Greek God Hercules. Still, the 2014 movie The Legend Of Hercules could only gather a 4 percent score on rotten tomatoes, making it an epic failure on the charts.

The Kellen Lutz starer gathered brutal criticism as it was neither legendary nor had good action to make it sail through to the side of hit movies. We can only hope that in the future, some good directors will do justice to the great Hercules and show him in all the glory that he deserves.

 

The Sun Did Not Shine On The Fog

The classic John Carpenter film The Fog was remade in 2005 and met critical disdain. As part of the horror-thriller genre, this Tom Welling starer is about a town engulfed in a mysterious fog of an unknown origin.

It failed to leave an impact because the movie could not create a creepy atmosphere and produce the eerie music that should have had the audience hanging to the edge of their seats. The problem with remakes is that there is a point of comparison, and this one was so far away from the original that the comparison was, well, “Foggy.”

 

Vampires Suck Backfired

With a string of hard-hitting, tongue-in-cheek flicks like Meet the Spartans and Epic Movie, the Friedberg-Seltzer team was flying high, making their way to Hollywood greatness. Yes, their movies were spoofs that made fun of other films, but they were hilarious.

Once the Twilight series hit the big screen, it was only a matter of time before the franchise was given the spoof treatment. Vampires Suck was the name of the installment responsible for the glorious task, but it took its name a little too seriously. Unlike its predecessors, the movie disappointed big time, and critics and fans had a field day ripping it apart.

 

Matthew Perry's Unfriendly Encounter With Serving Sara

After having massive success as Chandler Bing on Friends, Matthew Perry was already a legend. Then came The Whole Nine Yards and the actor proved that he was more than just a silver screen master garnering attention from all over.

Sadly, Matthew's fantastic run came crashing down after the release of Serving Sara. The movie was a romantic flick with Matthew in the lead role, but audiences and critics thought otherwise. The Rotten Tomatoes reviews were scathing, and a four percent score should give you an idea of what the audience felt about this.

 

Rollerball Couldn't Get The Ball Rolling

Remakes are probably among the worst things to hit modern cinema - what happened to good old creativity and storytelling? 2002's Rollerball is a classic example of how remakes fail to capture the essence of the original.

Saying fans and critics despised this remake is an understatement. The movie got a rating of three percent on the tomato meter, and understandably so. The newer version focused more on the gore, and the protagonist was not as intriguing, leading to a confusing experience. The studio went off the mark here.
