Taxi Driver - my worst movie choice. Great performance as always from the then young De Niro, whose brilliance is unquestionable, but the movie is ugly in every way and had awful consequences due to its influence on disturbed men who identified with the angry, sick and racist killer that De Niro portrayed. Taxi Driver portrayed a murderous incel long before we had heard the word or they started murdering people.

I respectfully disagree. The fact that the movie made you genuinely feel something - even if it's emotionally negative - then it's done it's job and deserves to be called a good movie.

IMO, do consider watching The Room.

Everything in The Room is so bad that the film is worthy
of its status as a "so-bad-it's-good" cult film.

Just beware of the five (unnecessary) sex scenes. I never thought much of them watching the movie with an old girlfriend. We just laughed at the whole thing. But, when I showed it to a friend I realized he must think I'm showing him a softcore film. It was slightly awkward.

Also do consider watching The Disaster Artist,
which is a biopic about what went wrong during production of The Room.

James Franco and his brother Dave give great performances as respectively,
Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero, the man who played "Mark."

LINK: A 2010 documentary on 'Troll 2' (1990) is titled 'Best Worst Movie.' The documentary was....not bad.

I love Troll 2, I've watched it so many times. It's the first movie I watched with my current girlfriend...I'm not sure how much she appreciated that...

THEY'RE EATING HER! AND THEN THEY'RE GOING TO EAT ME!! OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO--

I had seen it as a kid and forgot all about it...started watching it on Hulu 10-ish years ago, and when it got to the scene where the kid "pisses on hospitality", I knew I had recovered my lost childhood.

The documentary was good, but oh my gosh, I felt so bad for the lady who played the mom.

Hmm, there used to be a funny recut trailer that made it look like an upbeat indie film, but it's not on YouTube anymore.

I've seen Going Overboard and The Emoji Movie. I'd say The Emoji Movie, albeit terrible, is not as bad as a lot of others. I also think it's unfair to add spoof movies because they are trying to be bad, and they don't deserve to be on the list.
