All the worst movies I've seen were actually quite entertaining (especially with help from mst3k or rifftrax), so this is hard.
The absolute worst movie ever made is Monster a Go Go. No amount of riffing could make this enjoyable.
Notables include Birdemic, Batman and Robin, The Room, and Twilight.
I agree. I've watched a LOT of B-movies, exploitation flicks, no-budget horror. And even the really awful ones were fun, if for no other reason than to make fun of it. The Room was so hilarious because the director/star Tommy Waseau took it so seriously. Monster A Go Go was just totally inept from start to finish. But they were both hilarious. I can't put Plan Nine here even though it's definitely bad, because I have a soft spot now for Ed Wood Films.
Some others I could add to this list --
Curse of the Swamp Creature
Zontar, The Thing from Venus
Horror of Party Beach
ZAAT! -- featuring a gratuitous folk rock band that comes out of nowhere, performs a really bad song, and then disappears.
Astrozombies -- Took me three viewings to make it through this without falling asleep.
Orgy of the Dead -- 1960s strippers in a graveyard, being judged for their sins by a vampire-type guy and his female mate, a werewolf and a mummy.
Blood Feast -- terrible acting, script, score and sets intercut with some truly horrific gore effects
The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed Up Zombies -- Yep. Real title, real movie.
Attack of the Mushroom People
Blood Freak -- a religious ex-vet named Herschell smokes weed, passes out and dreams of becoming a giant homocidal turkey monster. Has a narrator who smokes a lot and goes into a coughing fit at the end of the film
Some of more recent vintage --
Armageddon (I was hoping both Willis and Affleck would get blown up).
Godzilla (the Broderick travesty. Godzilla's a girl? Please!)
Battlefield Earth
No Way Out -- a Russel Crowe thriller that wasn't thrilling. Boring and completely pointless. A total waste of time, money, film and talent.
