Apparently there was a sequel.. with David Carradine and Sid Haig ?! Tax bill must have come sooner than expected there.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

Other than Krull I liked all those movies. They did a lot with small budgets.

Children, Children,
You haven't even gotten close to the Worst Film of All Time.
The previously mentioned films are undoubtedly bad but for the worst ever you have to go back to 1974...
... and witness the Sean Connery abomination that is....
...ZARDOZ
Highlights:
-Barbarians in the above costume slaughtering roving bands of former businessmen.
-An artificial inteligence housed in a giant flying head
-Hippy love children who live forever... until they don't.
-Long meaningless banter in an english villa
It's also the film that gave us this most memorable quote:
Zardoz: The Penis is evil! The Penis shoots Seeds, and makes new Life to poison the Earth with a plague of men, as once it was. But the Gun shoots Death and purifies the Earth of the filth of Brutals. Go forth, and kill! Zardoz has spoken.
This thread will no doubt continue, but I think we all know which movie is worst now.
Also, my apologies for going against the spirit of the OP and suggesting a film so bad that no one (not even myself) could like it.

Top Gun was not bad. It was not the best movie ever, but it was entertaining.
@Eilif Zardoz was not the worst film ever. It is probably close, but The worst film ever made is so bad that my friends and I try to get other people to watch it by telling them it is a fantastic movie. Because it was so bad we want to think that we were not the only ones that have had to experience the excrement that was The Ice Storm.

I think people are confusing in this thread, poorly made and truly horrible movies (Combat Shock and Birddemic),with well/okay made but bad movies (Twilight/Eragon) and great/good/okay movies they don't like (Zardoz, Krull, Avengers).
In order to be the worst movie, I think the movie has to be just irredeemable in anyone's eyes. It has to actually pain the observer. If we were going to be scientific, we would have to gather movies in the first category and then sit down and watch them to see which ones created the most physical/mental distress.

From what I hear about it, I must disgaree; it sounds like one of the better comedies out there.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

There's three films by that name in IMDB. Want to be more specific?

The movie was too action orientated. It had cardboard cut outs of the characters playing them, Loki was terribly played and it had little to no character development. It is as bad as Batman and Robin. I like plenty of good movies e.g. Shawshank Redemption and 13th Warrior. The Avengers also had a pretty gakky atmosphere. Thor was too sci-fi for my liking and Hulk should of been based off comic hulk.
I believe good sir you have been served to by an Australian man.

So what you are saying is that you did not like it. It can't objectively be called the worst film since a great portion of the populace loved it. It could be your least favorite film, however.

Wasn't this the low-budget copy of Sucker Punch? I agree, it was baaaad.
Most romances
Many of these modern so called horrors that rely on CGI and the such like and have no story
This feels more like a taste thing rather than an objective assessment.

I suppose you can say that. At least you can agree Batman and Robin is bad, right?

All bad movies. (I might argue the two Alien movies, but whatever.)
Worst Film though? Nah.

Oh come on! Starship Troopers should have been named something else but is still an amusing and fun movie.
Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever (and I say this as someone who likes trashy action movies).
I can't even remember this movie, although I'm pretty sure I saw it.

Most awful film ever: Transformers 3 - my wife and I only managed to watch about 20 minutes before giving up and watching the original animated film (we were expecting it to be bad since we would have stopped watching the second film part way though but had paid to see it at the cinema so stuck through it ).
Most awesful film ever: Flash Gordon. So crap it is fantastic. And amazing music by Queen!
