Movies you will never watch again

Not even if you're high or mad out of your mind or forced under gunpoint...

- The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996)
- The Ghosts of Mars

Brave Heart.

Calla Lily · Sep 5, 2007

I Spit on Your Grave
Pulp Fiction. Kill Bill. (Okay, anything by Tarantino.)
The Jimmy Neutron Movie
Roxanne (Steve Martin eviscerating my favorite play of all time.)

The other Star Wars lame-o movies. The originals are the only ones worth a crap.

Harper K · Sep 5, 2007

The Accused
The Deer Hunter
A Clockwork Orange
Nobody Knows
The Bad Lieutenant

Not because they were bad movies at all... but rather because I was so, so, so traumatized by all of them. When my husband and I finished watching The Deer Hunter, I didn't even want the DVD in my house anymore.

anything with Tom Cruise, except for Rainman

"The Way We Were." I went with my wife to a theatre in Manhattan. Fell asleep shortly after the opening credits, woke in the middle to use the john, fell asleep and woke for the ending credits. Rex Reed a critic at the time for the Village Voice said something like: "This is the first time the leading man is prettier than the leading lady." That's the only thing I want to remember about that movie.

Balls of Fury
Aeon Flux
The Reaping
Saw
The Core

There are many I haven't seen and won't (Nacho Libre, sequels to any of the above), but that wasn't the question.

Calla Lily · Sep 5, 2007

Trust me, avoid Nacho Libre. Spend the $4 rental fee on...I don't know...4 packs of Twinkies? You'll be happier.

Vanilla Sky
Ditto on Bad Lieutenant

Perks · Sep 5, 2007

Requiem For A Dream, but again, not because it was a poor film, but because getting punched in the psyche like that just once did the trick.

I think I'd be happier using NAIR on my testicles than watching that movie.

Salem · Sep 5, 2007

The Piano
Dirty Dancing
Pretty Woman
Happy Feet

Oooh! Me too. What a piece of crap. Lots of pretty people to disbelieve and dislike in that one.

Nacho Libre
that was a waste of my hard earned $6.75

Matrix 3
<.<;

Ol' Fashioned Girl · Sep 5, 2007

Saving Private Ryan - not bad... just painful
Ed Wood - bad and painful, even with Depp
The Libertine - ditto

Wow, I'm really sheepish to say I really liked that one. Great performances. Good writing (though a bit stage play-like), some powerful dialogue. And some seriously flawed characters. Maybe that's why I liked it -- the characters are not likable, but they're fascinating to watch, as if I were watching a train wreck...

JoNightshade · Sep 5, 2007

Sin City. This is the only movie that has ever, really really made me want to vomit. I felt so icky and disgusting after this movie that I wanted to go scrub myself off with soap in the shower.

Also, Schindler's List. I think it's an amazing and an important movie that people SHOULD watch, but I also think it's something that's not "entertainment," if you know what I mean. I wouldn't watch it for fun.

Rats - the link was just to the product, not Charlie actually doing the deed. Time to search YouTube I guess ...

The Matrix...imo, way overrated. I haven't seen the 2nd two nor do I want to.

Fight Club

Natural Born Killers, or pretty much any Julliette Lewis or Oliver Stone movies. Well, Platoon, Born on the 4th and JFK are good.

maestrowork · Sep 5, 2007

A Clockwork Orange (it's a monumental film... just not for me).
Full Metal Jacket (I got violently sick watching that movie).
Brother Grimm (WTF was that?)
The Promise (tripe galore)
