For me, the Human Centipede. A premise too ridiculous to take seriously as a horror film and too one note to work as funny, intentional or otherwise.

I genuinely appreciate the Human Centipede films. I thought the scientist in the first movie was a very iconic and memorable character in the horror genre, then the second was just flat out insane and hilarious in its depravity. I think I'll add Mysterious Skin to this list. Seriously. Don't watch it. Ever. Unless you want to know what it's like to have felt like you've been raped by the writer/director after you've watched it. I'm not even making light of that. I honestly felt like I was personally violated by Gregg Araki. I guess everyone is different and while I won't be watching it again anytime soon because it is a very uncomfortable film to watch.. But I don't see how it filed under a movie with no redeeming qualities whatsoever. The film is uncomfortable in a good way and should be given credit for being one the very few films to actually tackle pedophilia in a realistic and mature fashion and not gloss over how the effects of sexual abuse on a child can last them a life time. I give Serbian Film some merit too. Really rough movie to watch but I can appreciate how it really didn't handle the premise with kid gloves. It was a film about horrific shit presented as horrific shit and it was really exhausting to watch but it really did paint a picture of how heinous it is. The latest movie I remember watching that just didn't do anything for me at all was "I'm Still Here", the movie about Joaquin Phoenix's pretend mental breakdown. I just didn't get what the purpose of it was, it wasn't believably executed, it wasn't really funny, there wasn't any sense of character development, there wasn't much of a social commentary to it. |

I think the real problem with I'm still here is its hard to find it funny when its common knowledge how his brother died. Also Me and You and Everyone We Know. Honestly this film tries way way way too hard to be quirky but instead it comes across as pretentious and just plain distributing. Not to mention the whole Pepsi challenge blow job contest scene involving those two 14 year old girls and that loser dad's son was just plain embarrassing. |

Hall Pass was pretty f***ing terrible. Just full of terrible, puerile jokes that had no relevance, seemingly being there just so people could have a little immature giggle. Literally the only redeeming part was when the Australian chick got her tits out, and even then, they weren't THAT great.

Not trying to spark any outrage but my wife and I walked out of Passion of the Christ during the whipping. Really had no interest in it after that when it came out on dvd.

Star Wars ep 2. Attack of the clones. Bad acting, terrible script and it just kept going...and going.........and going Some of the action scenes were pretty good... and one of the that guy with the glasses team managed to make a 20 minute video in defense of it... while still of course mentioning the obvious things (like you know hatred of sand...) thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/teamt/mjtv/ss/39121-shameful-sequels-in-defense-of-episode-2Personally I thought Red Zone Cuba was the worst of the Coleman Francis trilogy. Beast of Yucca Flats at least had the out there narration and Tor Johnson. Blasphemy! Beast of Yucca Flats is a cinematic masterpiece!  |

It gives us Halle Berry looking hot in that outfit, so that's one redeeming quality. You mean that ripped up thing she wore for the most part? Hell no! The first initial costume she had on, I thought was far better, and even sexier, despite it not showing off as much skin. |

Well if you sat though it when was theatrical released unless you understood french you wouldn't have a clue what anyone was saying because Godard wanted to give the middle finger to English speakers by not having proper English subtitles. |

"Love Don't Cost A Thing" is another movie that I didn't care for that has no redeeming qualities. I only watched it because I am a fan of Christina Milian. She looked great in that movie, as did Melissa Schuman (Formerly of the group Dream). Those are the only things that I can think that are REMOTELY close to being redeeming qualities. The movie sucked.

Street Fighter Legend of Chun Li (seriously nothing about it was good)
Castle of Fu Manchu (not even MST3K could make this film watchable)
