Rotten Tomatoes It Comes At Night
Plenty of bad movies get rated on Rotten Tomatoes, but it's rare to come across a movie score a flat 0% without a unmarried critic to defend something about the flick. If you didn't think it was possible, take a walk down the cinematic hall of shame and feast your eyes on some of the worst movies (according to Rotten Tomatoes) to date.
Each movie on this list has managed to reach a flat 0% rating, implying a fourth dimension suck of epic proportions should you cull to watch them. Manifestly, these movies should only be viewed at your ain risk. Consider yourself warned!
Look Who'due south Talking Now (1993)
Although the original Expect Who'due south Talking moving picture scored a mere 57% among critics, it was a viewer favorite, which prompted the creators to make non one, simply two sequels. The first two featured John Travolta, Kirstie Alley and a serial of talking babies. Cute, right?
In the third pic, Wait Who's Talking At present, the filmmakers instead swapped the babies out with rough talking dogs who make constant sexual references. Very kid-friendly, right? Information technology'due south impossible to understand how anyone making the film failed to consider this strategy would completely alienate the target audience and critics.
Although Hollywood may occasionally be able to tummy a bad movie, there's nothing information technology hates more than a blatant rip-off. Such was the example when MAC and Me was released in 1988. The story features a immature, wheelchair-leap boy who meets MAC (Mysterious Alien Animate being), an alien who needs help finding his way habitation. Sound familiar?
Apparently, the filmmakers thought that putting the poor child in a wheelchair would keep everyone from realizing they had obviously hijacked the plot of E.T. It didn't work — Duh! — and critics weren't shy about letting anybody know what they idea well-nigh information technology.
Jaws: The Revenge (1987)
Every bit Steven Spielberg told a film festival audience in 1975, "Making a sequel to anything is just a cheap carny trick." The fact that he understands what and then many other filmmakers fail to grasp, however, didn't go along three sequels to his hit movie Jaws from being fabricated by other misguided industry professionals.
The tales of terrified beachgoers merely kept coming until finally Jaws: The Revenge, the franchise'south fourth movie, finally sank things once and for all. The picture show's nonsensical plot, bad special furnishings and sloppy execution were more than than critics or moviegoers could handle with a straight face.
Staying Live (1983)
Ever noticed that there's something about dance movies that seems to inspire a million sequels? Before the days of the Step Up franchise, Staying Alive led the fashion toward insipid trip the light fantastic toe pic franchises of the future. Unfortunately, this questionable sequel to the successful Sat Night Fever came nowhere near the success of its predecessor.
John Travolta returned as Tony Manero in a plot set six years after he won the legendary disco contest in the outset film. The plot mostly serves as a filler for additional dancing that the filmmakers mistakenly counted on to acquit the movie.
Bolero (1984)
Poor Bo Derek. One day, her career was off to a great starting time, and the next, her husband, John Derek, had a not-and so-brilliant idea called Bolero. Written and directed by John himself, the movie features Bo as a recently graduated woman in the 1920s who traipses all over the globe in an attempt to lose her virginity.
The whole thing turned out to exist i of those movies that'due south funny for all the wrong reasons, and it was largely considered a huge mess by critics. On the other mitt, it won six of its x Razzie award nominations. Maybe that counts for something — or non.
Dream a Little Dream (1989)
You lot know you have failed in a spectacular style when not even teen heartthrob Corey Feldman could salvage your '80s movie. Such was the case with Dream a Piddling Dream, a bizarre story about an elderly couple who undertakes a mystical experiment.
As a result, they stop up trapped in the bodies of two teenagers, whose lives don't turn out to be what they had expected. Not surprisingly, the motion picture itself turned out to be epically breathless. Roger Ebert dubbed it "an aggressively unwatchable motion picture," while other critics questioned whether the writers had any idea what they had created.
Trouble Child (1990)
A couple adopts a immature boy who turns out to be an absolute nightmare who is determined to make their lives hell. While this might sound like a solid premise for a horror pic — peradventure it would accept worked that way — Trouble Child really tried to nowadays itself equally a slapstick comedy.
The problem was that none of the jokes were the least bit funny, and the plot itself came across as more mean-spirited than fun. The event was a mess of a film with a lead character that neither adults nor children could bring themselves to understand, let alone like.
Megaforce (1982)
Megaforce was supposed to chronicle the tale of an elite grouping of international warriors, only it turned out to exist something most critics had to force themselves to watch. As one reviewer put information technology, the film was "the kind of bad that makes you wish you were somewhere, anywhere else."
The movie barely grossed a fourth of its $20 million upkeep, footling of which appeared to accept been used to meliorate annihilation nearly the pic. With bad dialogue, cheesy special effects and a ridiculous plot, Megaforce ended upwardly existence the most unintentionally funny action movie of all time.
Highlander 2: The Quickening (1991)
Few movies brought fans, critics and fifty-fifty its ain crew together in mutual disgust quite like Highlander two. The original Highlander at to the lowest degree achieved a cult following, but the sequel pretty much merely borrowed the championship and absolutely none of the good parts of the storyline.
The filmmakers bizarrely tossed much of the original movie'south plotline and twisted the premise to include aliens battling on an environmentally plagued World in 2024. Rumor has it that even manager Russell Mulcahy asked to replace his proper name with a fake i but was forbidden past his contract from bailing out.
American Anthem (1986)
If you lot take never heard of this '80'south gymnastics story, and then you're not lone. The story centers around a immature male gymnast who works through diverse issues, meets a girl and trains for the Olympics — you know, the usual athlete coming-of-age story. Who meliorate to play him than an bodily Olympic gold medal gymnast, correct?
Apparently not. While production didn't accept to worry about training Mitch Gaylord to practise the gymnastics, they probably should take focused a little more on training him to act. The sloppy story and overload of cliches came in second but to his less than gold-medal interim performance.
Police University 4: Citizens on Patrol (1987)
You know how fifty-fifty the funniest joke loses all its hilarity if the aforementioned person keeps telling information technology over and over? That's sort of what happened with the Police Academy franchise. While the original was hilarious, nobody was laughing anymore by the cease of the sixth sequel.
Amid the most painful of the follow-ups was the fourth installment, in which Commandant Lassard decides to recruit civilians to work aslope the cops. The pic seems less concerned with a plot of any sort and plays out more like a string of gags tied together in the longest YouTube compilation ever.
Ambush (1993)
Based on the encompass alone, Deadfall looks like a film that could attract plenty of unsuspecting viewers. Information technology has Nicolas Cage, James Coburn and even Charlie Sheen amidst its bandage, not to mention a Coppola in the manager'due south chair.
As it turns out, it's just a lesson in never judging a volume — or a movie — past its encompass. The picture show is basically an endeavor at film noir gone terribly wrong. Although the filmmakers managed to get the look correct, they forgot the role where yous really need a stiff plot to make the whole thing work.
A Thousand Words (2012)
When your flick is shot iv years before anyone dares to actually release it in theaters, you know you're in for a rough ride. A Thousand Words fabricated the mistake of taking the hilarious Eddie Murphy and pretty much forcing him to pull off an hr and a half of recorded silence.
Why? Considering if his character spoke too much, he would be doomed to become a magical tree in his backyard. By the time the film was over, audiences everywhere were more desperate for Murphy to regain his oral communication than his character was.
Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star (2011)
Despite its proper name, this motion-picture show ironically did more to tank the career of lead actor Nick Swardson than assistance it. If you lot didn't see information technology, fear not. It's pretty much just i long joke that keeps struggling to tell itself for the most painful 96 minutes ever.
You get a socially challenged loser kid who moves to L.A. to follow in his porn-star parents' footsteps. Unless the previous sentence made you express mirth hysterically, then trust usa when we assure you that you didn't miss annihilation. Seriously, information technology doesn't get whatever funnier from there.
Gotti (2018)
Although it was released a mere two years ago, Gotti has already gained the popular vote for the worst mob moving-picture show of all fourth dimension. John Travolta stars as infamous mobster John Gotti in this biopic, which attempts to cram the guy's entire life into 105 minutes.
Gotti was many things, and an interesting guy was certainly one of them. Unfortunately, the film fails to capture this fact and also manages to be ridiculously boring in its endeavour to entertain. Ane critic actually said he would prefer to "wake up next to a severed horse head than e'er watch Gotti once again." Yikes!
Night Crimes (2018)
In the '90s, most of us thought of Jim Carrey equally the hysterically goofy star of films like Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Dumb and Dumber. Then, i day, he of a sudden stunned the globe with his obvious dramatic talent in movies like The Truman Evidence and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Listen.
So, when Dark Crimes came along, it seemed promising. The film cast Carey as a detective, and he did a pretty skilful job with what he was given. That said, the film was less the thriller it was intended to exist and by and large just besides disturbing to actually watch.
The Ridiculous vi (2015)
It seems like we all roughshod and so in love with Adam Sandler during his early career that we just can't bring ourselves to surrender on him. It was probably his early success that made him rich enough to start bankrolling his ain movies, and things have been going downhill ever since.
Amongst the worst of his creations is The Ridiculous six, a would-exist Western satire that is just painful to sentinel. Aside from its lame jokes, the movie is insanely racist and disrespectful toward Native Americans — to the degree that several Native American actors walked off the prepare.
Max Steel (2016)
Not all superhero movies are created equal, equally Max Steel will exist the outset to grudgingly admit. While many action films spawn toy lines, this one did things backwards and attempted to make a film out of an quondam toy from the late '90s.
The motion-picture show tells the story of a boy named Max who meets a metallic alien being that can wrap around him like a knock-off Iron Human being suit. The remainder of the moving-picture show follows suit with one superhero cliché after another, none of which are executed half as well equally they are in the films they shamelessly mimic.
Simon Sez (1999)
Remember when Dennis Rodman was still around? Well, of grade, in that location was someone out there who just had to ride the coattails of his 15 minutes of fame by dropping him into an activity flick. Hence, Simon Sez, the sequel to Double Take, was born.
While Rodman at to the lowest degree had Jean-Claude Van Damme to back him up in the beginning picture show, he has to resort to teaming upward with a pair of random figurer hacking monks in the sequel. Gear up to spend the whole motion picture wishing he would just give it upward and do a couple of dunks instead.
Return to the Blue Lagoon (1991)
Although The Blue Lagoon didn't even garner a 10% fresh rating from critics in 1980, that didn't stop someone out there from thinking a sequel would still be a great idea. 1991 saw the sick-fated release of Return to the Blue Lagoon, which fared even worse than the original.
The film plopped so-teenagers Milla Jovovich and Brian Krause onto a desert island, threw in a little romance and a lot of mankind, and hoped for the best. Unfortunately, the movie tanked and was even accounted by one critic to be "for pervs and frustrated holidaymakers only." Ouch.
The Garbage Pail Kids Film (1987)
Back in the '80s, there was a bill of fare collecting trend featuring the Garbage Pail Kids. With characters meant to be knock-offs of Cabbage Patch Kids, the cards featured kids that were super gross in ways that but young boys discover fascinating.
To the horror of parents everywhere, someone decided to turn the trend into a truly terrifying live-action motion picture. While the cartoonish creatures may take looked harmless plenty on the cards, their boob counterparts were the stuff that nightmares — and years of intense therapy — were made of.
Top Dog (1994)
While Chuck Norris may have spawned a series of hysterical memos detailing his ballsy levels of greatness, Summit Dog is his Achilles Heel that refuses to die. How could an activeness-comedy starring not just Norris only too an adorable dog possibly go wrong?
Well, the first mistake was inserting our heroes into a "family unit-friendly" film laden with Neo-Nazis terrorists and White Supremacists. (What?) The second was having the poor taste to release it ii weeks after the Oklahoma City bombings. All this added upwardly to an epic fail that was well-nigh booed out of the box office.
Jury Duty (1995)
This Pauly Shore flop was enough to go out virtually pic fans preferring actual jury duty to sticking effectually until the last credits rolled on this film. The tale revolves around an uninspired slacker who gets the brilliant idea to sign up for jury duty so he can take advantage of the costless room and board. (Exactly where is this jury duty?)
The balance of the film mostly focuses on him coming up with the almost annoying ways possible to keep the instance going, but so he doesn't lose his temporary digs. By the finish, you're sure to be but as frustrated as his fellow jurors.
Ed (1996)
You could almost hear the collective shatter of the hearts of Friends fans effectually the globe when this bad male child flop came out. The sports comedy featured Matt LeBlanc — of Joey Tribbiani fame — and a lovable, baseball-playing chimpanzee named Ed. What could go wrong?
So much. Although the premise could take been a solid kid feature in the right easily, the filmmakers fell back on a string of potty jokes and very trivial else to make the film funny. The whole thing simply seemed similar such a waste for LeBlanc's comedy skills, and information technology didn't do the chimp whatever favors either.
3 Strikes (2000)
Starring Brian Hooks and written by the aforementioned guy who penned the hysterical Friday, this comedy gem seemed destined to be a winner. Wrong! Past the fourth dimension information technology was all said and done, critics were ready to lock this i up and throw away the fundamental.
The plot centers around a ii-strike felon who is trying his best to stay out of trouble, a job that turns out to be surprisingly complicated. The pic relies mostly on super lowbrow sense of humour, which might have been excusable if it had actually managed to be funny.
Redline (2007)
You know those bargain bin DVDs that look like dollar store versions of pop movies? Redline is pretty much their rex. Imagine The Fast and the Furious just without the plotline and with women depicted as nothing more than than arm candy. That pretty much sums upward the movie.
Rather than try to tell a story of whatever sort, the film is a blatant vanity project meant to show off a agglomeration of flashy cars, complete with the calendar girl side pieces. Save your time and flip through a car calendar at a truck stop instead.
The Nutcracker in 3D (2010)
Seriously, how practise you lot fifty-fifty mess upward The Nutcracker? Sadly, this misguided children's film pulled information technology off, much to the dismay of horrified film critics everywhere. The Hollywood Reporter called it "an credible Scrooge-like endeavour by Russian filmmaker Andrei Konchalovsky to forever ruin children'southward associations with the classic Yuletide ballet."
Despite the film's solid bandage, which included Elle Fanning and Nathan Lane, it veered so far away from the much-loved traditional tale that it became something else entirely. You had ane job, Nutcracker. Step away from the 3D glasses and stick to the honey story.
National Lampoon's Gold Diggers (2003)
This sincerely misguided effort at a one-act stars Volition Friedle, who played the lovably bumbling Eric Matthews on Male child Meets Globe, and Chris Owen every bit the two least funny guys in whatever comedy ever. The hijinks brainstorm when the boys decide to marry two older women, in hopes that they volition presently die and leave them a big inheritance.
Earlier long, everyone is trying to murder anybody else, and the mystery of why this hateful-spirited picture was ever considered a comedy just keeps getting deeper. If you desire a real laugh, read the film'south Rotten Tomatoes reviews instead.
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002)
Look no further than this 2002 jewel for proof that star ability alone can't save a bad flick. Starring Lucy Liu and Antonio Banderas, the movie is most 2 government agents who are fighting over who can get their hands on some new diabolical weapon first.
An understandable plot, however, seems to exist the last thing on the filmmakers' minds. The entire movie is more like i big string of explosions, bullets and plotlines gone rogue (and incorrect). With more 100 bad reviews to its name, if information technology's not the worst movie of all fourth dimension, it'southward definitely pretty close.
Kirk Cameron'southward Saving Christmas (2017)
As ane critic summed this i upwardly, "Saving Christmas is basically 80 minutes of Cameron lambasting Christians for not being his equal when information technology comes to intolerance and shut-mindedness." The motion picture left both believers and nonbelievers alike wondering what had merely happened to the incredibly confusing concluding lxxx minutes of their lives.
The bizarre undertaking looks more than like something Cameron filmed on his telephone after a few as well many egg nogs and is more or less him preaching a sermon he didn't carp to research. The whole thing comes beyond more similar a vanity piece than an inspirational message.
Folks! (1992)
Tom Selleck, the actor who resembles a existent-life Ken doll, fabricated a major fault when he took the lead role in the incredibly problematic Folks. In the moving-picture show, Selleck's Jon Aldrich tries to manage his work and personal life while his parents, particularly his father who lives with dementia, continued to make his life more and more problematic.
Folks! was heavily panned for its negative portrayal of anyone over the age of 50, but especially for the low-brow sense of humour at the expense of someone living with dementia. You couldn't find any folks in the athenaeum who had a expert thing to say nearly this poorly-written movie.
A Low Down Dirty Shame (1994)
A movie with the likes of Keenen Ivory Wayans and Jada Pinkett Smith sounds like it would be a recipe for a skilful movie, right? Wrong. This activeness/one-act dud written, directed by and starring Wayans was panned for its terrible plot lines and story structure.
Legendary film critic had some particularly cutting words for the LAPD-focused moving-picture show: "Here is a flick well-nigh guns. Have abroad the guns, and the picture show would be about nothing much. The plot, the dialogue and all merely one of the characters are so shallow that, without murder for a punch line, they'd debunk." What a shame.
Precious Cargo (2016)
Sigh. Poor Bruce Willis. This pic was so bad information technology makes other bad movies expect good. Willis played the office of Eddie Filosa, who convinces a criminal offense boss and his gang to steal $30 meg in diamonds from some other criminal offense gang in commutation for a adult female.
Some other film whose plot points and story construction are just filled with guns and high-speed chases. The inexpensive dialog and intentionally funny moments turned into a piece of painful, gut-wrenching cinema. It should honestly exist retitled "Total Garbage".
Transylmania (2009)
A group of sexy college co-eds political party abroad in a vampire-filled Romania. What could possibly go wrong? When the lead graphic symbol Rusty arranges the Eurotrip so he could run into his Internet girlfriend Draguta, you realize how much really volition go wrong in this far-from-campy picture show.
The movie is filled with a bunch of tired gags, monsters that aren't scary and also many characters to develop an analogousness towards any of them. For a movie from the National Lampoon franchise, this screwball one-act really fails to deliver whatever "mania" exterior of pure nausea.
London Fields (2018)
The clairvoyant Nicola Six, played by Amber Heard, learns that she will die at the hands of a man in her life. Naturally, she begins to date three men to notice which one will be her killer. That makes total sense, right? Nothing confusing to contemplate there.
The film grossed $168,575 on its opening weekend, with a per-screen average of $261. The Independent's critic Kaleem Aftab claimed, "Most scenes lack footstep, are performed badly and are accompanied by a running commentary of action we can run into for ourselves."
