Worst movie you've seen

[FatAndFaithless]

If you're talking disturbing-as-shit movies, A Serbian Film takes the shit cake.

All Serbian films or did you have one in mind?

The title is literally "A Serbian Film".

After you have gouged out your eyeballs with a melon baller, how will you post here ???

Go watch Caligula, you'll find it to be worse. Much worse.

WWGVT ???

Helen Mirren and John Hurt were in Caligula!
I quite enjoyed it in places. Particularly as it during the phase of Helens career when she wasn't afraid of a bit of nudity...

I noted Losty would find it worse, I liked the camp factor and the unintentional humor in Caligula. And just knowing they sunk like $10 million in it makes it even funnier.

The machine that mows off heads was a particular favorite of mine.

Well you can see why I got confused. It's an ambiguous title.

Just googled it....that sounds like one sick film.

It's pretty grotesque.

John Hurt wasn't in Caligula. Granted, he played Caligula in I, Claudius, but that's an entirely different story.

Of course, it did star Malcolm McDowell, John Gielgud, and Peter O'Toole.

Loved 'The Gods Must Be Crazy'

I agree with Star Wars being good at the time.
I was about 10 when I saw it at the cinema.
It was a double feature with 'Battlestar Galactica.'
It was the school holidays and it was so crowded we had to sit on the floor up front.
One of my best memories.
Partially because I was squashed up against some girl who had boobs. :-)

You're right! I was getting Malcolm confused with John there, still a fine actor so just transpose the names and my point still stands.

Am I the only hater of this film?

I turned it off after a while because it was so awful.

I will not find it anything at all. I am not watching it. Not even a chance. One disturbing movie is enough. Never ever again.

I thought Battleship was incredibly shitty.

After seeing it, I posted this thread (spoiler alert) having to rant for want of brain bleach.

As an American, I'm always embarrassed to watch movies centered around what I like to call "The Lieutenant Hotdog" trope. The use of this trope was what I really didn't like about the rebooted James T Kirk character in the recent Star Trek movies.

To quickly run down the nature of the Lt. Hotdog trope:

• Lt. Hotdog is a young, washed up nobody who's haunted by some sort of family tragedy.
  
• Lt. Hotdog joins the military.
  
• Lt. Hotdog is supremely talented for no particular reason, often despite having been a drunken loser at the start of the movie, but also brash and a loose canon. He does the kind of things that would get someone in the real military dishonerably discharged or, at the very least, on permenant menial duty and kept the HELL away from fighter jets or leadership roles.
  
• Lt. Hotdog goes too far one day and really gets in trouble with the brass. Bonus trope points if the trouble was a fight with a rival that later turns out to be an important team member, with whom Lt. Hotdog patches things up and works with to get the job done.
  
• Lt. Hotdog is called into the commander's office and is given the "what am I going to do with you?" speech. "You're very talented yatta yatta but..." It looks bad for Lt. Hotdog. The hammer is about to come down but just before it happens...
  
• Main crisis of the movie takes place just before the book can be thrown at Lt. Hotdog.
  
• Lt. Hotdog rises to the occassion and saves the day, he becomes the hero and gets the girl in the end.
  

As tiresome as it is predictable as it is wildly unrealistic. The trope is also borderline Marty Stu.
