It's time for the big one.
You can post one REALLY bad movie, or if you're a masochist, and own way too many to pick one stellar abomination from the pack, just list them all.
By the way, it doesn't matter HOW you own them (I'm including some I've taped from tv in this. Hell, it's worse if you did that - you chose, not only to record it, but to actually keep it, and not tape over it). For Clarity, I'll be stating what format I own them on, and if they were recorded, or if they were the distribution release.
I'll start of with my shortlist:
Mortal Kombat Annhilation (Recorded on VHS)
3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain (Recorded on VHS)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (remake - Distribution DVD)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The beginning (Distribution DVD)
Alien Vs Predator (Distribution DVD)
Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (Distribution DVD)
I have the Nightmare on Elm Street Box set, so include everything except new nightmare after 3
Freddy vs Jason (Distribution DVD)
Eragon (Distribution DVD)
Blade Trinity (Distribution DVD)
Resident Evil (Distribution DVD)
Scary Movie 3 (Distribution DVD)
Final Fantasy - Spirits Within (Distribution DVD)
And thats the SHORTLIST.
So, what skeletons do you guys have in YOUR DVD/VHS racks?
Avatar *shudder*
Godzilla 1998 (mom bought it on DVD since I liked Godzilla and she didn't realize it sucks)
Super Mario Bros Movie (Recorded on VHS when I was a little kid)
That's all I can really think of. Maybe Transformers but I actually liked that movie somewhat and plus don't know where it is.
Beverly Hills Ninja
and
My Big Fat Greek Wedding
Both were gifts, so I don't feel too guilty about them.

Chris Farley sucked IMO.
RIP
Space Thunder Kids.
I bought it for the laughs, nothing sucks more than this pile of rip-offs.
I own the SMB movie on VHS. I found it at a thrift store for $1 so I thought, "why not?"
Rookie mistake - just because a bad movie is cheap doesn't mean it's worth it.
For example, you were overcharged by around $3 (give or take a quarter - I work in £, and accurate conversions in money are a pain).

My friend just bought me "Resident evil: Extinction" (Must use quotation marks, so I'm not actually acknowledging it actually holds the official licence), because he knows I like resident evil.
Don't worry. They won't find him. The pieces are too small.

Final Fantasy Spirits within isn't a bad film if you really try to forget one thing.
The fact that it's called a Final Fantasy film.
Most franchise movies still have a nod to their source, even if they fuck everything else up. Where was this ones nod to ANY of the FF games? I couldn't find one.

Ark would have been a better final fantasy moive..and it had James woods in it.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0473435/
The Lawnmower Man (DVD part of a Stephen king box)
Alone in the dark (Distribution DVD)
House of the dead (Distribution DVD)
I bought both before I knew who Uwe Boll was and was very dissapointed especially with Alone in the dark.
Reeker (Distribution DVD)
Santa with muscles, The secret agent club (Both DVD and part of a collection ironicilly called "Great comedy movies" but I atleast got it for free)
(2) Xtro2- I think is the name, I sold it back to the store for 25 cent only paid a dollar for it. I bought it randomly and was not what I was expecting, I don't that like alien scary movies.
(1) Another You - I bought it because it would be the second movie I would have with Gene Wilder and this movie is the only movie that I stop watching during the playing of it. Looking at the VHS tape I stop halfway though it. (So approx. 98 Min. run-time, I watched about 49 minutes of it.)
I noticed that The Spirits Within is often brought up and I would like to say, separate the movie away from Final Fantasy and Square, than the movie is decent.

I agree Spirits within was a decent movie... it was a horrible 'final fantasy movie', but a decent movie.
I have to ask on the critera on this thread though, because I know I own some horrible movies... but some of them i like either despite, or because of that.

The worst movies that I own are probably:
Encino Man
Tank Girl
Total Recal
Robin Hood (Kevin Costner)
the Grindhouse movies

Encino Man?!!
I love that movie...maybe I don't have such good taste after all...

Hey I own it, I wouldn't own it if I didn't enjoy it which goes for all the ones I listed. I like bad movies, planning on doing a marathon tonight of: Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus, Mega Shark vs. Crocasaurus, and Mega Piranha

Yes, but it's also likely that people may have bad movies they don't like (for what ever reason). So it is kind of important to make the distinction.

If you have a guilty pleasure that you also think is a very bad film, then it can go here
I kinda enjoyed Blade Trinity, and the first time watching the 3 ninjas film, I thought it was pretty good (I was 11, and even then I should have known better).

oh, and Tank Girl is pretty bad too. I've heard that the graphic novels are fun though.
Sweet one more call for Tank Girl! Hells yeah!

Most of the movie I own might be called bad, but I enjoy a good bad movie but I only have 2 movies I'm fully ashamed of owning.
Zombies! Zombies! Zombies!
Survival of the dead
Survival attempted to ruin the genre that made m what I am today by breaking all the standards set by it's predecessors.
And Zombies! Zombies! Zombies! was a terrible movie with a stupid cast, terrible effects/make-up and the execution makes me want to chop off my hand to forget it.

I think Spirits Within's greatest offense was having nothing to do with the games. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible. It was worlds better than Advent Children, though. That movie had a fromage factor of eleven, and not in a good way. Lots of cringe-inducing corniness.
Advent Children was blatant feature-length fanservice.
And while I think Advent Children is a better Final Fantasy Film, I will admit Spirits within is a
better film all around.

1: See no evil (that kane horror film) bought it as a get one free bargain bin dvd.
2:No Retreat No surrender, Jean Claude Van Dam's first ever movie and as a jcvd fan (I love the man) I had to have this film but it is pure 80s cheese although there is nothing scarier than van dam doing the splits on the ring ropes and just staring you down.
3:The Dragon Lives Again, could be argued as one of the best and most original bruceploitation films around, basically brucey is in chinese purgatory and it is being taken over by the godfather, the man with no name (clint eastwood), the exorcist, the blind swordsman, 007 and emmanuelle. So Bruce teams up with the one armed swordsman and (I couldn't make this shit up if I tried) Popeye the sailer to take chinese purgatory back. Not a good movie by any means but definately an entertaining ride.
4: Vampire Girl vs Frankenstien girl.... You just have to watch it.
Btw it may look like Im a martial arts buff or an oriental buff but im really not I just have some weird movies in my collection.
The full cut of Advent Children isn't entirely bad. It's way better than the original cut, but lacks as a story in comparison to Spirits Within. Which should not have been a Final Fantasy movie.

Advent Children all I remember of that movie are long cut-scenes with the characters fighting and the characters are more realistic designs.

Right now I don't own ANY movies (due to process of moving) but the Simpsons Movie which in itself isn't that bad as some people say it is, you just gotta get passed the political messages to enjoy it. Of all the movies my room mate owns right now, every movie of his except the Transformers movies suck, he only owns 9 DVDs and 3 are box sets for Avatar the Last Airbender (and he owns the movie so I'm guessing that's the worst of them).
I've never seen someone so out of tune with movies and understanding what makes a movie great. I'm holding the desire to watch 21 though, that was a great movie
