What is the worst movie you've ever sat through in theaters? Tell me your horror story.?

Answer 1

I have seen a lot of really bad movies, but two experiences really stand out in my mind.

When I was in high school, there used to be three X-rated film theaters in our area (they are no longer allowed in our state). I have a good friend who is gay, and as soon as he turned 18, he wanted to go check one out. He didn't have a car then, so I drove him downtown. I dropped him off, and before he went in, we agreed I would come back in two hours. There was no parking anywhere, and it was snowing so heavily that everywhere I might have gone to while away the time was closed, including the mall, the library, and all the coffee shops and restaurants in the area, so I finally decided I would go sit in the theater lobby. Well, they didn't allow you to sit in the lobby. You had to buy a ticket, and you had to go into the theater. I thought I'd just go hang out in the bathroom, like sit on the edge of a sink, or something, and smoke and try to flip my butts into a toilet. Well, it's a gay theater, so there's no ladies room, or rather, men are using both restrooms, and they aren't using them to go to the bathroom, if you know what I mean. So I end up going in and sitting in the very back row. The movie was horrible, as cheap porn always is, with a very cheesy soundtrack and a lot of moaning and groaning. The worst thing was that the floor was so wet it was slippery and sticky, and there were men either hooking up or pleasuring themselves all over the place. It was so disgusting I actually went back outside, but there was no place for me to go, and it was so cold I couldn't sit in the car, so I had to go back in. I was sitting there, trying to imagine I was somewhere else, and suddenly the whole thing just got to me, and I got the giggles. I couldn't control them, and then I was laughing uncontrollably. I sat there and laughed for 45 minutes, until the "feature" ended, while all the men shouted at me to shut up or leave. One of them actually went and got the manager, and the manager told him I had paid for my ticket, so I had a right to do anything I wanted, including laughing out loud. My friend was not amused, but I was still laughing about it when I dropped him off at home an hour later.

The other was when I was even younger, because I didn't have a driver's license. My cousins were visiting for a holiday, probably Thanksgiving, and someone dropped us off to see Jaws 3-D. Well, we were young, and a scary movie, especially one in 3-D, seemed ideal. The problem was that they didn't use the traditional blue and red 3-D technology where only certain parts of the movie are blurry. They used some new method where both lenses of the glasses are gray, and the entire film is blurry if you don't watch with the glasses on. The movie was really rotten, but the thing that made the whole thing so wretched was that the glasses were making people sick. People were throwing up into their popcorn buckets because they would suddenly get sick from their eyes being messed up. Of the three of us, two of us got migraines, and two of us threw up, and yes, I was the lucky one who got to do both! And I remember that I was so sick and dizzy I couldn't get up to go to the restroom; some nice man came and helped me out to the lobby. But it was really awful in there. People were sick left and right, and there was a huge line at the restrooms, and little kids were crying because of the chaos. It was just a mess. I remember that the theater pulled the movie the next day, which was a Saturday, and they refunded money for advanced ticket purchases. The theater just wasn't set up to handle that many people being sick at one time. Looking back, it seems funny now, but it sure wasn't amusing at the time.

Later that night, my one cousin and I (we're the same age) were on the floor in my bedroom because we had migraines and were still sick and everything was spinning so we couldn't even get into bed. She reached over and grabbed my hand and said in all seriousness, "I love you, and you are one of my best friends in the whole world, but I am NEVER going to a movie with you again." We still laugh about it.

Answer 2

The worst movie I ever sat through has to be Creep! I can't believe that people actually thought it was good!

1) There was last train on a circle line that doesn't have last trains.
2) This creature has for some reason suddenly decided to start killing dozens of people in one night. If it had ever done this before, there would have been stories and rumours.
3) If there was a last train, another train pulling in to the station and stopping would have been picked up by the central control board
4) We are shown an old hospital room, for no apparent reason as it is never explained
5) We are shown pictures of a younger version of the creature standing with some guy, again for no reason as again it is not explained
6) The creature subjects the homeless girl to a horrific(but very unbelievably carried out) ordeal, but has apparently not bothered to do anything like this to anyone else as we are shown other people being kept in semi-submerged cages, again, for no apparent reason
7) We are asked to believe that the creature went up to the security guard's room, and killed him, and got back to it's lair, without the woman seeing him (given the layout of some subway stations, I suppose this one CAN slide)
8) We are never given any back story to this creature. We don't know how he came to be in existance, why he's haunting the subway or why he's killing pople. Like I said earlier, all we are given is a room and a photo, no explination what so ever.

There are loads more reasons as to why this is the single most crap movie ever, but I kept falling asleep and I have no desire whatsoever to re-watch the film, so these are the only one's I can think of off the top of my head right now.

Answer 3

The worst movie I ever sat through was Elizabethtown. It was the most pathetic piece of trash I have ever seen. I kept thinking it would pick up and the story would improve, ut it just seemed to get worse right down to the part where the cousin lives his dream of being a rock star by playing in a hotel ballroom while the fire sprinklers are going off. And it's attempt to be deep and intruiging was just painful to watch. This movie caused me physical pain.

Answer 4

White Chicks
Scary Movie 4
Little Man

I dont know why I gave those movies a chance. After the first 30 minutes I knew I was wasting my time and money and I did not find hardly anything funny in all three of the movies. What was funny was I sat there.

Answer 5

I'm an M. Night Shyamalan fan and I love his movies. I'm going to see "Lady in the Water" and I'm stoked about it! But I gotta say that "The Village" killed me! It was so STUPID! Completely under the bar when compared to other Shyamalan films such as "The Sixth Sense" and "Signs" and because I'm a comic book fan, "Unbreakable". And if you've never seen "The Village" and plan to, stop reading--MOVIE GIVEAWAY--they lived in a freaking village in isolation on a land preserve and the town officials dressed up as giant porcupines to keep the townfolk from discovering the truth! This movie is completely beneath the supernatural genius of Shyamalan and is UTTERLY BORING!!!!!!!! My rant is done. Thank you for listening.

Answer 6

The remake of 'The Haunting' was horrible but I have a built in defense mechanism, I can black out instantly and go into dream sleep, I mostly woke up at twenty minute intervals making loud caustic comments about how crappy the film was - - much as I did when I was dumb enough to watch a wretched piece of **** called 'Bats' one of Lou Diamond Phillips string of unpalatable cinema.

Answer 7

Looking for Mister Goodbar. Diane Keaton, Richard Gere. Using your word "worst" as the most emotionally unbearable. Using your term "sat through", I've got a hitch. I walked out on the last scene. Met another woman also smoking a cigarette on the sidewalk, approximately my age then. Few words were necessary between us. Words like, "Nope, not me, thank you, will not watch that."

Answer 8

The crappiest movie I've ever sat through in the theater would have to be "A Walk in the Clouds" with Keanu Reeves. That movie was totally BORING. It was pretentious crap that was totally predictable. The only reason I went was that my best friend went with me to see a cool movie (Dante's Peak), so I had to go see a movie with her. She loved that chick-flick romance crap. I am a chick, but I hate hate HATE chick flicks.

Answer 9

Taxi--i wanted to run everyone in that film over with their cars--

i went on a first date to see this movie--not hard to figure out why it was also the last date when he thought it was funny ( and it was the second time he had seen it he liked it so much)

Answer 10

The Blair Witch Project. They gave away the ending at the very beginning of the movie...
