Pft. That's the first one that popped into my head too.

I own the Wicker Man remake. It was a blind buy. I didn't hate it. And I'd probably get rid of it - if it weren't so crazy funny. It'll never get watched again. But it creates fun conversation.

Oooo. I own Freddy's Dead, too! Not only is it bad, but I never talk about it! But it goes with the collection [of a masterful first with relatively good schlocky fun sequels].

Lawerence of Arabia - because it's SO FUCKING LONG. Good movie. But as an adult (kind'uv), I find it hard to sit down with such a gigantor flick. Lord of the Rings movies are more of the same deal, with the added problem that I feel a bit unfufilled if I just sit down and watch one [of the first two] at a time.

I have five hundred-er-so total. So I'm sure there's some that I'll never watch again (since I'll probably be dead in 50 years). Those are the only two that I can say I'll probably never watch again.

I used to review dvds for another website and got some real stinkers.

Abel Ferrara's New Rose Hotel comes to mind (Starring Christopher Walken, Asia Argento, and Willem DaFoe) it was just painful to watch. I was a good deal younger when I saw it, so maybe something has changed, but it left such a bad taste I can't imagine I'd ever rewatch it.

Leonard Part 6.

I watch it once a year, on Good Friday. While it plays, i whip myself with an electric cord, and beg God to forgive me of my sins. Though, this year, I didnt whip myself. Sitting through the movie was penance enough for what sins I did commit this past year.

I do love that Peabo Bryson song "Positive" that plays during the montage where he's getting ready for that date.
