4. Plan 9 From Outer Space
From 1959, The cast and crew had to be baptised before shooting began because the only group that would fund the movie was a Baptist church. With cardboard sets, microphones shadows in shot, UFOs that were children’s model kits hung from fishing line, no continuity in scenes going from day to night from shot to shot in a single scene.

From 1967, the first and fortunately only monster movie musical, set in a carnival it has such hit songs as “The Zombie Stomp”, zombies that look like the elephant man, it has Gypsies and lots of dancing and singing. The director even appeared in the film under his oh-so-cool stage name Cash Flagg.
If you have a problem with what I say, learn the meaning of a joke and shut up
wow, thank you. those sounds like some AMAZING titles.
shareSome of those films are good. Some I also wouldn't mind seeing.
For DEMONIC TOYS and updates on Full Moon Films:

The Beast of Yucca Flats should be on the list. As well as Manos: The Hands of Fate
shareI can't believe Troll 2 is not on this list.

Although, there are some pretty bad movies on your list. I think some of them don't deserve to be on the worst movies of all time list.
For example, while "Mimic" is nowhere near as good as Del Toro's Spanish-language films, it's still the best english-speaking movie I have seen by him. Also I liked "The Sixth Sense".
However, why isn't "Garbage-Pail Kids: The Movie" not on the list for worst films ever. That movie was unbelievably awful, it makes me ill just thinking about it!
Why was Spider Baby on there? I dug that movie.
Some of the worst I've seen from recent years are Funny Games (U.S.), Bug, Redline, and Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror. But of all time? I hated My Father the Hero but the worst of the worst has to be The Beast of Yucca Flats.
I did sixty in five minutes once...

Speed 2 and Batman & Robin weren't mentioned it this film. Neither was Jaws 4 as you mentioned in another post.
Is there another version of this film?
grrr arg h4x0r 7Eh pl4NE7share
Are you kidding? Some of those movies are great! Like The Addams family movie, Alien 3, The Sixth Sense, and Braindead! Others aren't so great, but are definitely not the worst. Like The Stuff, Jurassic Park 3, and The first two Scary Movies.
"Negative, I am a meat popsicle"
There's some great films on the list (Robot Monster, Plan 9, etc), which, whilst poorly made, are insanely entertaining. The worst films ever should be films that suck on every level.
Tomb Raider
Tomb Raider 2
King Kong (2005)
Die Another Day
Dragon Wars
The Dark Knight
Faces Of Death
Devil Hunter
Death Proof
Halloween 2007
The Pure And The Evil
etc
I've no doubt someone, somewhere will find something to like about these though.
J.D.'s revenge has a plot that is a bit out there and more than a few unintentional laughs but overall that movie is considered to be one of the better ones of the Blaxploitation era and it has some exceptional acting.
Where are true turkeys like "Abbey", "Dr. Black, Mr. Hyde", or "Blakenstein"? Better yet, how could they have even missed "Soul Vengeance"? I wonderful story about a soul brother out for revenge using his leathal member (and by member I don't mean family).:D Check it out if you never heard of it.
