A subjective selection, portrayed on a very low budget
15 October 2016
I'm not going to be as harsh on this documentary as some of the other reviewers on this site. It was obviously made on a tiny budget by somebody with a huge love of bad cinema and who wanted to share their findings. If you're looking for any kind of objectivity, wit, or insight, you'll be completely disappointed. Instead this is a straight run-through of 50 randomly chosen movies that have received some level of infamy due to their poor production values and reputations.

I think I should note that none of the films here would make my '50 worst movies ever' list. It's a completely subjective selection that randomly includes TROLL but not TROLL 2 (which everyone knows is far worse) and cult gems like SANTA CLAUS VERSUS THE MARTIANS, GLEN OR GLENDA, THE INCREDIBLE MELTING MAN, and ROBOT MONSTER. The cheesy animated intros are repetitive and annoying, but the selected footage is entertaining and the voice-over narration could be worse. Think of this as a useful primer for those setting out on a quest to see the worst of the worst.
