In the past, I've written pieces that asked what were the worst political gaffes & mistakes. Usually, at the heart of every political mistake is someone or a group of someones that got their heads together & came up with a policy proposal, campaign move, statement of reaction, or other "cunning plan" that wasn't thought all the way through, and it fails to live up in execution to how well it read on paper.
Most bad movies are concocted in a similar manner, except instead of a group of political aides sitting around a table trying to fashion a poll tested message, it's a group of film executives sitting around a table trying to fashion a film around screen-test results.
But there are many ways to jump on the Fail Boat, and screw up horrendously. There are many different levels of bad, with some films that are just plain bad, some that are Godawfully bad, and still others that are so bad they become an enjoyable experience.
So a simple question for the evening: Which bad film experiences stand out, and why?
