I almost hired that one but was advised not to by the DVD hire owner!  So if a DVD shop owner recommends against it, then it must stink!  When it comes to hiring DVDs when I'm bored, my standards are pretty low, especially when it comes to sci fi and horror.

The box looks nice, though!

DVD Hire shops still exist? 

I've not seen it, but really? The worst film ever? Really? I mean surely you've seen something else that was indescribably terrible?

Hmm...I might make a thread about films that are GENUINELY terrible... 

I was subjected to Blade Trinity last week... it was so godawfully terrible that I went and washed up instead of having to watch it

I like the Blade films 

I'd heard Skyline was shite.

I would like to put forward "Mega Piranha" forward for the title of genuinely terrible.    I knew it was one of the seriously cheesey disaster/monster films on the Sci Fi channel...   but some of them are quite good (in a laugh & point kind of way).    Loch Ness Terror is one of my faves, and Mega Shark vs GIant Squid was hilarious..    but Mega Piranha had no redeeming qualities what so ever.

Ever seen Night Of The Lepus?

1970s terror-fest starring killer bunny rabbits!

2012 was a bit of a shocker and I suppose similar in its approach to effects over substance.  Great special effects but how many near misses can you cram into a film?  And such obvious stereotypes that you know exactly which of the characters will live and which will meet a grizzly end as soon as see them.  Suffice to say, the good ole American every-man family survives.

Oooh.. no !

But I will keep an eye out for that one...       good quality cheesy fun film then? 

Hmmm, yeah, they do where I am.  I'll never have Murdoch's Sky, can't get cable and BT vision is a rip off.  Aside from the cost, I have far too much clutter as it is without loads of DVD boxes everywhere.

Flippin hilarious

Zoltan, Hound Of Dracula is another one - softy-looking Rottweiler with a great set of false fangs!

I'm sure you will be thrilled to learn that they are making a sequel per IMDB

But there was no plot?

the problem with Skyline is they make you go thru the whole ....... only to get to the end where it all makes sense & the movie actually begins. A number 2 would be great if they followed it on. Cause it is a great concept.

Have you seen Blade & Blade II

*makes mental note*

this is fab....    I have new cheeeese to watch

Was Blade Trinity the one with the vampire dogs...    one of them a Pomeranian?    Its worth a gold star for that alone surely? 

A killer Pomeranian? Brilliant!

Caption: "For the last time, Paris, I am NOT getting into your frickin Gucci handbag.."

I went to watch one of the Pirates of the Caribbean films with the boy a few years ago (the one with Kiera Knightley in) and it was crap. (Probably summink to do with Kiera Knightley, right enough).

hahahahahaha... 

kinda makes you wish they were real doesn't it?

[edit]   this was in response to Toids post..    Karma slipped in without me noticing

one of them is way way too long...      the one when the black pearl voyages through the sea of the damned or dead or something

I saw a bit of one of those Pirate films. Load of old cobblers, despite Johnny Depp being in it.

Slipstream

Is the most boring, self referential, pretentious, disjointed, unwatchable mess I've ever seen.  Self financed by Anthony Hopkins and it's easy to see why no studio would take it on.  It's an endurance test.  I got totally confused and annoyed in equal measure.  Almost every review of the film concludes that it's Anthony Hopkin's vanity project.

hubby has seen Skyline and he says he thinks it was very good...   he did say the best bit of the storyline came in during the last few minutes...   and that there is talk of a sequel which he reckons will be good.

But then he thought Inception was good, so I don't take his appreciation of a film to mean much 

no, just Trinity, it was on TV last week and B wanted to watch it.. he seemed to like it 

Meet The Spartans was absolute shite, as I expected it to be.

How many lame boring, pop culture references can they cram into a film?  I can't remember if there was a reference to Sir Mix-a-lot's "Baby Got Back" but it seems like it's the law to reference that song in these braindead films.  It amazes me that people can sit through regurgitated references to youtube memes, Britney Spears, Simon Cowell and Ugly Betty and find those references funny.

Inception was an IMMENSE film. I loved it. People who say they don't like it obviously didn't understand it...  *scarpers to the hills*

Carnelian, I wouldn't give those films the time of day:

Date Movie

Epic Movie

Disaster Movie

Vampires Suck

I've not seen them, only the trailers, and even then I demand my money back. (Scary Movie made me laff though )

Mamma Mia.  Case closed 

Eddy Murphy has done some awful films in his time.

It did get one laugh when the guy asked where his dogs were (after falling off the roof) and the response was "I dunno, have you tried the lobby?"

If I was a bloke I would take umbrage at that remark!

Gawd I dunno...all I remember was Johnny Depp (who I don't get especially as a pirate), Kiera bloody Knightley (who was more wooden than Noah's ark) and a giant squid in the sea.

I fell a kip after that

I watched the first Beverly Hill's Cop again last night and it reminded me how good he was when he first started out. (I like all the BHC films - Murphy makes them for me).

I liked him in Coming to America, too. Wasn't all that taken with the Nutty Professor. Haven't seen anything else with him in or if I have I've forgotten it.

if you were a bloke that had slipped in without me noticing I wouldn't care! 

I love Johnny Depp as a pirate.   Keira bloody Knightly I don't like at all though.    And yeah...  I fell asleep during the sequels to the original film..    they are good to fall asleep to..  like Bond films.
