* Creator/FrankMiller may be famed for his work in comics (despite his output from the 2000s onwards being of debatable quality), but few, if any, would defend 2008's '''''Film/TheSpirit''''', his adaptation of Creator/WillEisner's famed comic book series.[[note]] Miller was allegedly friends with Eisner and, after his passing, decided to do the movie to honor him, vowing "nobody else can do this", hence his seemly-odd choice of project[[/note]] Spurred on by the success of the 2005 Creator/RobertRodriguez adaptation of ''ComicBook/SinCity'', Miller used his honorary co-director credits on that to launch his own solo directorial career in Hollywood with this movie -- with disastrous results. The green-screen technology used for ''Sin City'' is abused in a way that makes the world feel shockingly empty despite several effects companies involved. The tone ranges wildly from Miller's trademark noire-esque deadly seriousness to goofy slapstick with no consistency (the first fight between the title character and his arch-nemesis, the Octopus, has them smacking each other around with sinks and toilets in a bog while exchanging gritty banter afterwards). The plot is bare-bones despite being 103 minutes long and boils down to a 3-way tug-of-war between the Spirit, his rival/lover Sand Saref, and the Octopus over a vague McGuffin called "the Blood of Heracles", which the Octopus wants to use to turn himself into a god. The characters get it no better. Creator/EvaMendes' Sand Saref is reduced from the cunning rocket scientist/engineer foil from the comics to a slutty ComicBook/{{Catwoman}} knock-off, the Spirit himself is constantly lusted after by every female character in the movie to ever interact with him, no matter how minor, ''including Death herself'', all for no given reason, and Creator/ScarlettJohansson is wasted in a woodenly-acted role as the Octopus' henchwoman. Worst of all, poor Creator/SamuelLJackson, while trying to ham it to high heaven as the Octopus, who was TheUnseen in the source material, gets it the worst as he is constantly wearing a different outfit in ever scene he's in for no reason (including a Nazi uniform at one point), and has a god-awful RunningGag where's he's making egg puns or comments related to eggs no matter how forced or random it is. That's not even including the {{Retcon}} to the Spirit's backstory where his resurrection was the result of an experiment the Octopus performed on both of them, giving them a HealingFactor. The movie was savaged by critics and movie goes alike, bombed horribly at the box office, and aside from co-directing the ''Sin City'' sequel, served as a CreatorKiller for Frank Miller's tenure in Hollywood.

Creator/EvaMendes' Sand Saref is reduced from the cunning rocket scientist/engineer foil from the comics to a slutty Catwoman knock-off, the Sprit himself is constantly lusted after by every female in the movie to ever interact with him, no matter, how minor, '''''including Death herself''''', all for no given reason, and Creator/ScarletJohannson is wasted in a woodenly-acted role as The Octopus' henchwoman. Worst of all, poor Creator/SamuelLJackson, while trying to ham it to high heaven as The Octopus, who was TheUnseen in the source material, gets it the worst as he is constantly wearing a different outfit in ever scene he's in for no reason (including a Nazi uniform at one point), and has a god-awful RunningGag where's he's making egg puns or comments related to eggs no matter how forced or random it is. That's not even including the Retcons to the Spirit's backstory where his resurrection was the result of an experiment The Octopus performed on him. The movie was savaged by critics and movie goes alike, bombed horribly at the box office, and aside from co-directing the Sin City sequel, served as a CreatorKiller for Frank Miller's tenure in Hollywood. Creator/FilmBrain and Creator/Linkara teamed up to rip it to shreds [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjTHtrAPj6o here]].

* Creator/FrankMiller may be famed for his work in comics (despite his output from the 2000s onwards being of debatable quality), but few, if any, would defend 2008's '''''Film/TheSpirit''''', his adaptation of Creator/WillEisner's famed comic book series. Spurred on by the success of the 2005 Creator/RoberRodriguez adaptation of ComicBook/SinCity, Miller used his honorary co-director credits on that to launch his own solo directorial career in Hollywood with this movie.....with disastrous results. The green-screen technology used for Sin City is abused in a way that makes the world feel shockingly empty despite several effects companies involved. The tone ranges wildly from Miller's trademark noire-esque deadly seriousness to goofy slapstick with no consistency (the first fight between the title character and his arch-nemesis, The Octopus, has them smacking each other around with sinks and toilets in a bog while exchanging gritty banter afterwards). The plot is bare-bones despite being 103 minutes long and boils down to a 3-way tug-of-war over the Golden Fleece and a vague Maguffin called "the Blood of Hercules", the later of which The Octopus wants to make himself immortal. The characters get it no better.

* '''''Film/TheNeverEndingStoryIIIEscapeFromFantasia''''' takes {{Sequelitis}} to jaw-dropping extremes. Having run out of material to adapt, the film instead treats characters, locations, and the basic premise of the [[ShowWithinAShow namesake book]] as throwaway window-dressing for a trite, derivative, [[InNameOnly and otherwise completely unrelated]] plot involving bratty teenagers in a fantasy setting. The story seems to outright shun even basic reasoning--whole story beats rely upon the cast playing hot-potato with the IdiotBall, massive plot holes are kept in place by a single word[[note]]Bastian points out that there is a way to immediately resolve the plot, only for the Childlike Empress to shut him down by simply saying: "No, Bastian."[[/note]], and the dialogue contradicts what occurs on-screen. The film is further mired in desperate attempts at appealing to teens, from the change in setting to the [[TotallyRadical ridiculous dialogue]]. And to add insult to injury, it just plain looks cheaper. Nothing more so than the animatronics--Creator/JimHensonsCreatureShop's poorest showing to date, especially compared to the first two films. [[CreatorBacklash You shouldn't ask]] Creator/JackBlack (who plays the main villain--a [[BadassDecay high school bully!]]) or WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic (who [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWJ5rg-xwIg reviewed]] the movie) about it...

* '''''Film/{{Wired}}''''' (AKA "the movie Hollywood doesn't want you to see") is a notorious biopic about the late Creator/JohnBelushi based on the book of the same name by Creator/BobWoodward, which was criticized for being exploitative and sensationalist and derided by John's family and friends with good reason. The movie treats Belushi as a stereotypical drug addict,[[note]]The film glosses over most Belushi's short-but-illustrious career to focus almost exclusively on his drug addictions, and on top of that, he is portrayed as a boorish, violent, unprofessional, adulterous, openly racist hedonist who cares nothing for the harm his actions caused. In real life, while he did struggle with cocaine addiction, John Belushi was a kind, compassionate, generous man who took his work seriously and made a genuine (albeit sadly unsuccessful) effort to clean up his life.[[/note]] and thus [[{{Anvilicious}} treats its message like an]] Series/AfterschoolSpecial. The film also contains moments in John's life that either never happened or are heavily disputed, like him being punched by an {{Expy}} of Creator/JohnLandis while being high on coke (which Landis denied doing) or performing live in concert as Film/TheBluesBrothers; it also contained rather mean-spirited scenes of John being chastised for his drug use by (get this) his Puerto Rican guardian angel (played by the [[{{Brownface}} decidedly not Puerto Rican]] Ray Sharkey)[[note]]In a case of bitter irony that further eroded the movie's moral high ground, Sharkey was a drug addict in real life and died in 1993 of AIDS after reportedly contracting HIV through intravenous drug use. If that wasn't enough, Sharkey was rumored to have gotten John hooked back on drugs after he got sober enough to film ''Continental Divide'', meaning that John's "guardian angel" was played by the man who '''indirectly killed him'''.[[/note]] and by Woodward (who John never met in real life), and John's ghost screaming for help as his body is cut open by a coroner, while a ''{{laugh track}}'' plays. Even putting aside the relentless amount of victim blaming and tasteless sequences, the non-linear structure is poorly handled and the story is incredibly repetitive, being made up of various scenes of John taking drugs, being chastised by various characters and ''[[Series/SaturdayNightLive SNL]]'' re-enactments. Even the tone is inconsistent, attempting to be a serious drama whilst incorporating bizarre fantastical elements that render the film hard to take seriously overall. The movie's reception was overwhelmingly negative, with a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 4%, and nowadays it's perhaps best known for being the film debut of Creator/MichaelChiklis (who played John), and yet it almost [[StarDerailingRole derailed his career]] just as it began before he bounced back with ''Series/TheCommish''. Creator/DanAykroyd hated the movie so much that he fired Creator/JTWalsh (who played Woodward) during the production of ''Film/LooseCannons'' due to Walsh's involvement in the film. Perhaps as the result of the film's infamy, even in the age of streaming, ''Wired'' has [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes never received a physical home video release outside of a brief life on VHS and a poor-quality, out-of-sync print on Amazon Instant Video]]. WebVideo/TheCinemaSnob takes a look at it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyMl23hd-Us here]]. Interestingly, musician Music/PeterGabriel was said to have enjoyed it, but he was under the impression he was watching a rough cut of ''Film/SayAnything''.[[note]]Gabriel asked to see said rough cut after Creator/CameronCrowe asked him for permission to use "In Your Eyes" in the film. Crowe's assistant sent Gabriel a copy of ''Wired'' by mistake and Crowe didn't find out until Gabriel expressed concern over the main character dying of a drug overdose.[[/note]]

* The American remake of '''''Film/OneMissedCall''''' not only bungled every last component of Creator/TakashiMiike's classic, but it also shamelessly ripped off other horror movies such as ''Film/FinalDestination'' and Creator/GoreVerbinski's rendition of ''Film/TheRing''. The film also failed in adapting the scenes directly ripped from the Japanese version, bewildering viewers who did not watch the original and angering the viewers who did. Even if the movie was not a remake, the film's plot is hopelessly lazy, the acting is poor, and the "shocks" [[NightmareRetardant were anything but scary]]. The remake's shortcomings were so egregious that [[GenreKiller it effectively killed any further interest in remaking Japanese horror films]]. The film received the [[MedalOfDishonor "accolade"]] of being named by Website/RottenTomatoes as the 2nd worst movie of the 2000s, with all 80 of the critics tracked by the site giving negative reviews. Audiences didn't think much better of it, giving it a user rating of about 4.0 on IMDB.
* '''''Film/TheOogielovesInTheBigBalloonAdventure''''', a children's film produced by [[Series/{{Teletubbies}} Kenn Viselman]] based on a series of {{Public Service Announcement}}s and a concept purchased from a NoBudget EdutainmentShow. It was done on $20 million but doesn't even remotely show it, instead faithfully adhering to every negative stereotype associated with children's entertainment. It's built around AudienceParticipation--rare for a cinematic release (perhaps for very good reason, given the target audience)--but [[FakeInteractivity completely mishandles it]], and [[ExcusePlot what little plot there is to speak of]] is idiotic. The writing is infantile at best, with painfully unfunny jokes, inane and repetitive songs, and the odd jarringly transparent ParentalBonus. Not even the multitude of star actors (a good chunk of whom are [[QuestionableCasting completely unsuited for their roles]]) could save it. It made less than 2% of its budget back, underperforming ''WesternAnimation/{{Delgo}}'' in its opening week, yet the director said that [[https://www.thewrap.com/oogieloves-worst-ever-box-office-bow-notoriety-we-were-looking-54471/ "it was never about the box office".]] Bafflingly, the director also asserted that all of the negative feedback would [[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity result in]] ''[[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity The Oogieloves]]'' [[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity becoming a franchise.]] Needless to say, that [[StillbornFranchise never happened]]. Creator/BradJones and his friends on ''WebVideo/MidnightScreenings'' tear this movie to shreds [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9SGhX6-SMw here]], and he later takes it on as WebVideo/TheCinemaSnob [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKLwprcW8Ew here.]] Creator/NathanRabin also had some harsh words in his [[http://www.avclub.com/articles/something-close-to-madness-case-file-24-the-oogiel,85088/ "My World of Flops" article]] for this film. ''WebVideo/CinematicExcrement'' talked about it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r3vfY697_I here]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6kcJP4KdXY here]]. ''WebVideo/IHateEverything'' also talked about it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1j4GRlz-FQ here]] for his Search for the Worst, and considered it the worst movie he'd seen until [[Film/Birdemic2TheResurrection several]] [[Film/TheLastAirbender other]] [[Film/BabyGeniuses films]] came along. Watch WebVideo/{{Bobsheaux}} tear it apart [[https://vimeo.com/537855571 here]] and see WebVideo/AniMat get broken by the movie [[https://youtu.be/u6akzyu-lIQ here]]. The WebAnimation/{{Spill}} crew, on the other hand, were [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ8bMk61XJU awestruck]] about how insane the movie gets. WebVideo/MusicalHell also [[https://youtu.be/AYO7I-YH2K0?si=L3jK5NNr2IPkC85Q rakes this one over the coals]].

* '''''Film/SimonSez''''' is a 1999 action [[BuddyPicture buddy comedy]] that revolves around an Interpol agent named Simon (Creator/DennisRodman), who teams up with another agent, Nick (Creator/DaneCook) in order to save a kidnapped girl (who was later revealed to be just hanging out with her boyfriend) and defeat an arms dealer. To start things off, Dane Cook is ''absolutely atrocious'' in this film, since all he does is act like an [[UnwantedAssistance annoying prick]], and say cringeworthy dialogue (in one case, a horrible voice impression of Chewbacca). In other words, [[PoorMansSubstitute he's trying to be]] Creator/JimCarrey, but the execution and the way he acts makes him look extremely horrendous. Aside from that, you've also got [[SpecialEffectFailure extremely terrible special effects]], random nonsense (at one point, Micro and Macro, a duo of "cyber-monks" who are surprisingly enough played by the late John Pinette and Ricky Harris, pointlessly make Nick do stupid dances while Ricky talks through a speaker to make it look like he's actually God), unnecessary pop culture references, and a villain who acts way over the top (and not in a good way). The saddest part of it all is that Rodman, [[NonActorVehicle a basketball player by trade]] who was cast in the leading role ostensibly as a result of his supporting role in ''Film/DoubleTeam'', is actually ''[[TookTheBadFilmSeriously the only person who actually can act]]'', which sadly killed off his acting career for good, since the only film he would star after this mess was an awful low-budget 2009 basketball film called ''The Minis'', which starred a cast full of people with dwarfism (which is actually very impressive, considering the standards of Hollywood). Because of this, it was heavily trashed by critics, gained a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, and is a contender for the IMDB Bottom 100 with its 2.6 rating, and it bombed at the box office, grossing only $292,152 out of its 10 million dollar budget. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NntJlHzxe-k Here is]] Webvideo/TheNostalgiaCritic and [[Creator/AllisonPregler Obscurus Lupa]] dissecting it. WebVideo/GoodBadOrBadBad [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nir3rrCmw7c also express their dissatisfaction with this film]], while also mocking Dane Cook throughout the whole review. WebVideo/TwoTakes also [[https://www.youtube.com/embed/oat0tHxRBfY tackles this pathetic mess]] as part of their IMDB Bottom 100 marathon.

* '''''Turn It Up''''', a 2000 attempt to make rappers Pras and Ja Rule movie stars, which obtained an 8% on Rotten Tomatoes and an 18 on Metacritic. The film is an obvious attempt to ape the cult success of ''Belly'' but while that film covered up its shortcomings with an unmistakable style that wowed its fans, this film is simply boring and has awful acting and production values to boot. Not even Creator/JasonStatham can make it watchable, and Creator/NewLineCinema essentially gave it the Invisible Advertising treatment, as it grossed only $1.2 million on a $9 million budget. Further rubbing salt in the wound is that ''this'' was the last movie to ever be screened at the legendary Indian Hills Theatre before it was demolished following Carmike's bankruptcy.

'''Important Note''': To ensure that the movie is judged with a clear mind and the hatred isn't just a knee-jerk reaction, as well as to allow opinions to properly form, '''[[Administrivia/NoRecentExamplesPlease examples should not be added until at least one month after release]]'''.

* Despite (or perhaps because of) an AllStarCast with [[Music/OutKast Big Boi]], Music/LilWayne, Creator/TerryCrews, and [[Series/TheAndyMilonakisShow Andy Milonakis]], '''''Who's Your Caddy?''''', which is a poor rip-off of ''Film/{{Caddyshack}}'', gave in to the worst stereotypes of African-American culture. For example, there's a scene in which the main character's mother cooks up some fried chicken. Creator/JeffreyJones plays the villain despite being a ''[[QuestionableCasting registered]] [[PaedoHunt sex offender]]'' since 2002, with his performance limited to playing what is essentially an older version of his Ed Rooney character from ''Film/FerrisBuellersDayOff'', a much better film than this. There's also loads of ToiletHumor and bad direction. The worst aspect of this film is the acting, where everybody delivers a shockingly awful performance, as in "we're starring in this film just for our paychecks" performance, with Faizon Love being the worst offender. It has a 6% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 1.8 rating at Website/{{IMDb}}. What box office it ''did'' draw was bolstered by people thinking it was a [[FilmOfTheBook film adaptation]] of the book of the same name by sportswriter Rick Riley. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeFJUE3itRE Allison, Phelan, and Mathew air their thoughts]] on how awful ''Caddy'' truly is, with the exception of Creator/JamesAvery, (who had the only funny line in this entire "comedy")[[note]]In case you are wondering what exactly that line is, it's "What are you? Two pussies having a pity party?"[[/note]].

* '''''Witless Protection''''', the last of a triad of films which featured Daniel Whitney's Creator/LarryTheCableGuy character AsHimself. Larry's a small-town sheriff who unwittingly abducts a witness under protection by FBI agents... who it turns out are actually in the employ of a big-city gangster and are out to silence her. [[ClicheStorm On top of a plot that plays every cliché straight]], the film features Larry at his least likeable, a load of unfunny jokes, and a plethora of outright insulting moments, with little to redeem it in the slightest. To top it off, Larry makes a lot of racist remarks, as Creator/LeonardMaltin noted in his reviews. (This also marks Creator/JennyMcCarthy's second appearance on this page; although she didn't write it unlike ''Dirty Love'' and only plays Larry's girlfriend.) Unlike the films that preceded it, it made only around half of its budget and was more or less the StarDerailingRole for Whitney as a live-action leading film actor. Also, it was Creator/YaphetKotto's last film.

* The [[{{Understatement}} unbelievably horrifying]] '''''SWAP.avi'''''. Because even works that have been removed from Website/ThisVeryWiki for violating Administrivia/TheContentPolicy have anything remotely resembling a decency standard, we're prohibited from describing much of this. It all started on Website/SomethingAwful when one of the goons requested that this video be made. [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone The end result]] [[EveryoneHasStandards horrified even him]]. ''SWAP.avi'' is basically ''2 Girls 1 Cup'' turned up to twenty (rather fitting, as they were produced by the same people) — the real name for the accursed thing is ''Scat Swapping School Swallow''. It stars four women who appear to have been strongly coerced, and it lasts for sixty very long, very painful minutes. Vomit is involved, as is more shit than is humanly possible. Saying that it starts at [[NauseaFuel disgusting]] [[FromBadToWorse and only gets worse from there]] [[{{Understatement}} is a galaxy-sized understatement]], as it's possibly the most degrading excuse for pornography that has ever been conceived by a human mind. Zack Parsons of Something Awful rated each of its individual aspects [[ReadingsAreOffTheScale -INFINITY (negative infinity), for an overall rating of -INFINITY/50]], and urges that one never even ''think'' about looking for this film.
