What is your WORST blind buy ever?
 
We had a best one, so I figure a "worst" could work too.

Mine would be the 3 disc of Mystic River. I thought the movie was good, but a) have no use for the soundtrack and b) will never watch it again


What would yours be?

The Good Girl with Jenifer Aniston. Worst blind buy hands down.

Gummo

PixyJunket 03-10-05 04:14 PM

Donnie Darko. Ouch.

Ringu. Man that movie sucked!
Spoiler:
they get to the whole story by one of the characters randomly saying he's a psychic and just tells us the whole backstory?!??!
Stick with the American version!

Ghost World

Van Helsing

Soul Plane. I thought the movie was going to be good. It sucked.

fargus 03-10-05 04:24 PM

Erotic Witch Project ... ech.

Randy Miller III 03-10-05 04:25 PM

<b>The Cooler</b>, but it was only $3 used at Overstock...so no big loss.

Night of the Living Dead would be my worst.It sure sucked for a movie that gets so much praise.

JesseCuster 03-10-05 04:32 PM

Zombi

Shite. Not Fulci's best. When the best sequence is a zombie fighting a shark (!), and best mostly because of the sheer "WTF!?!?" value, there's probably some problems.

Gigli. Worst three bucks I ever spent.

Cameron 03-10-05 04:33 PM

anchorman...

freshticles 03-10-05 04:35 PM

It's a tie between Return of the King and Evil Dead 2.

Unbearable Lightness of Being CC: simply unbearable

MEJHarrison 03-10-05 04:47 PM

Daredevil

My wife wanted it and couldn't even finish watching it. The Evanescence music video was far better than the movie itself. :)

I looked at your collection and wonder if you really think that Night of the Living Dead is worse than...

Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever
Corky Romano
Double Team (The Van Dame flick with Dennis Rodman)

Oh. I bought the novel a couple of days ago. We'll see how that goes.

I was going to respond to this, because I don't see how such a highly acclaimed film can be considered a "worst" anything...but I've never seen the film and I don't feel like jumping into an arguement that will only serve to make me look like a fanboy. That comment just struck me in the same way as those people who say, "(Insert highly acclaimed film) is the worst movie ever!!"

Equilibrium-A shallow Matrix Wannabe, hands down the Worst movie of all time...right up there with Howard the Duck

supe32978 03-10-05 04:59 PM

Soul Survivors with Eliza Dushku. Worst movie ever

NobleRabbit 03-10-05 05:02 PM

Chariots of Fire

Six-String Samurai. I ended up selling it on half.com a week after I bought it.
