Cinema has behind it a prolific history of great classics that have managed to shape what we know today as the seventh art. Magical works that make us dream , or cry, and for which we come to give our life when it comes to feeding it with dreams. Now, in all this time, we have also seen many titles that threaten that magic of the industry, infumable films that have shaken the box office. Do you know what they are?
The movie menace
As we tell you, cinema has lived through turbulent processes throughout history that made many think that it could disappear. The first great revolution came with the sound film, which came to eliminate at a stroke the artists who had earned a living telling their stories with just the chords of a simple piano in the room. Later came color , which was also going to create many problems for those nostalgic for black and white, but it prevailed, and you won’t see with what vigor.
And what about television? With its massive implementation and the arrival of cable platforms, many thought movie theaters were dead but they still survived… until the internet arrived, where the seventh art once again demonstrated its power by maintaining itself without too many problems. There are always downturns, but never a complete defeat that is still not confirmed today despite the streaming platforms.
Now, a permanent threat that has remained undaunted throughout all these years is the one that could have done the most damage to the foundations of the cinematographic universe. And yes, indeed, we are referring to the bad movies, to the abominations that have been devised by minds that are scantly respectful of cinema and that with their bad scripts, terrible directors, worse staging and demolishing actors, have not managed to scare us and let’s empty the halls in disarray.
The worst movies in history
It is precisely in honor of that legion of worst movies in history that we are going to take a short tour of the 15 most unfortunate, ordered from best (if that adjective can be applied here) to worst according to the ratings obtained on IMDB , the largest database that we can find on the internet about any type of film, series or audiovisual product that has been launched in the world throughout history.
Are you ready for this nonsense of movies? Here are the worst of them all…
15 – From Justin to Kelly (2003)
A waitress from Texas and a college student from Pennsylvania meet during a vacation in Fort Lauderdale and it will be music that unites them forever. Or not? Imagine the rest…
IMDB Score: 2.8
14 – Dragonball Evolution (2009)
This movie was not destined to reign in these lists of worst productions but it did, despite being based on one of the most popular animes on the entire planet: Dragon Ball . Not even Son Goku was able to rescue her from the trash can where fans of the franchise keep her.
IMDB Score: 2.8
13 – Radhé (2021)
Indian production that tells us the story of the capture of the gangster Gani Bhai. It will be the ACP Rajveer Shikawat, alias Radhe, who is in charge of starting a chase with the aim of finding the richest man in the city, who is still in charge of the mafia. We can’t even imagine what can come out of it…
IMDB Score: 2.7
12 – Alone in the Dark (2005)
Not even the fact that it was based on a mythical video game from the 90s saved it from being burned. Alone in the Dark is one of the worst productions that we remember of all those that are inspired by IP of games for computers or consoles. A pity because they had good rattan to have done something more interesting.
IMDB Score: 2.7
11 – Pledge this! (2006)
If you take a look at the trailer you will see Paris Hilton acting in this movie that if you want we will tell you what it is about: at the University of South Beach, a group of first-year girls want to get accepted into a Sorority. We can continue, but we almost let you try to see the film, so you will discover all its mysteries…
IMDB Score: 2.7
10 – Battlefield: Earth (2000)
John Travolta has not been seen in another like it. In the year 3000 the Earth is in the hands of the Psychlos so we are all enslaved. Obviously we are not satisfied with living like this, so a revolution begins that tries to return freedom to the entire planet. Do you want any spoilers?
IMDB Score: 2.6
9 – Epic Movie (2007)
There is a genre in itself that are the movies that make fun of others that have been successful and that usually call them with titles like Disaster Movie , Spanish Movie … or Epic Movie . On this occasion, the target of ridicule and jokes are the epic sagas in the style of Pirates of the Caribbean , Superman and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory . If you are able to endure it until the end… congratulations! You can with everything.
IMDB Score: 2.5
8 – Saving Christmas (2014)
Kirk Cameron, the successful teenager in the 90s, starred in this film that takes us to a Christmas party where he wants to show us that Jesus Christ himself is still one of the essential elements of those parties. We cannot imagine what we are going to find… what about you?
IMDB Score: 2.5
7 – The Mask 2 (2005)
If the first film is not bad at all and it helped us to meet a wild Jim Carrey repainted thanks to digital effects by computer, the second does make the definitive leap to true audiovisual grotesque . Take a look at the trailer that is priceless. Or if?
IMDB Score: 2.5
6 – House of the Dead (2003)
If there is a director who is a specialist in making authentic clunkers that are impossible to see, that is Uwe Boll , who in this film gives us a virtuoso demonstration. The story of a group of students who travels to an island to organize a rave in the midst of a zombie invasion is one of those that mark an era. If you take it as a joke, it is even funny.
IMDB Score: 2.5
5 – Beauty and the Beast (2008)
Paris Hilton tried again with this movie in which she is the main protagonist… and that’s how it went. Her story puts us in the shoes of a man who wants to keep a date with the celebrity ‘s character but, to get it, he will have to fulfill a mission: find a suitor for her friend, who is slightly uglier than the blonde. millionaire Well, quite a bit more. Hence the title in Spanish.
IMDB Score: 2.4
4 – Birdemic: Shock and Terror (2010)
If Alfred Hitchcock raised his head, he would persecute those responsible for this cinematographic attack. Birdemic tells us the story of a horde of mutated birds that attack a small town… but the heroic performance of the two protagonists will appear. How will they be able to end the threat? What are you on tenterhooks for?
IMDB Score: 2.3
3 – Superbies (2004)
We entered the Top 3 of this classification and it must be said that the leading boys are not to blame for the mess created by the elders. This film tells us the story of a group of little talkers who embark on a mission to crack the code behind children’s language. A mission that will allow all the babies in the world to obtain the salvation they long for. Indescribable.
IMDB Score: 2.3
2 – Hands: The Hands of Fate (1966)
With almost 60 years behind it, this film is horror and horror in broad senses of the words. His story tells us how a family gets lost on the road and ends up encountering a satanic sect. If you are going to see it, keep this name: Torgo.
IMDB Score: 2.2
1 – Disaster Movie (2008)
In the first place of the worst films could not miss one of those Losquesea Movie that laughs at other productions that have been successful. In this case, natural (and other) catastrophes are used to make characters from movies that have nothing to do with the genre appear on the screen: like Iron Man, Indiana Jones, Enchanted and a host of other unbearable things that will make you hate the movies for the number of such bad jokes.
IMDB Score: 2.1
Would you include any other film in this “select” list?
