power is plating like for you love is
eternal remember me some films are so
bad they’re good and others are so bad
they’re hilarious but sometimes they’re
just plain bad we can’t budget sir this
hatch scope is just as jammed as the
others are you need dynamite BLT badness
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
worst movies of the 1980s
uh I’m sorry uh mr. Berle I need your
advice on getting laughs for this list
although we can all agree that there are
different levels of bad we’ll be looking
at North American big-budget studio
productions give something to America
you never gave me boy yeah let’s do it
we’ll be basing our choices on a mix of
critical and commercial success or
rather a lack thereof the quality of the
film’s in terms of story effects acting
and so on as well as how they are
generally perceived these days this is
part of a series of videos spanning the
decades Howard I’m about to meet
secretly with my colleague and he’s
bringing the feather the feather what
are you talking if it matches it’ll be
the answer to all your past no you don’t
stay away from me leave let me through
number 10
Star Trek 5 the final frontier I don’t
want my pain taken away I need my pain
it was no surprise that William Shatner
wanted to direct the next Star Trek
movie since his co-star Leonard Nimoy
had directed the previous two successful
entries sure you won’t change your mind
is there something wrong with the one I
have throughout the production Shatner’s
ego would not let him give up even if
the film was plagued with problems
why spot why I all get to do was pull
the trigger
creator Gene Roddenberry didn’t like the
script co-stars opposed the premise and
the film went through multiple rewrites
and cuts including a complete revamp of
the ending after horrible test
screenings I lost a brother once
I’m lucky I gotta back
I thought you said men like us don’t
have families
control with subpar effects a bizarre
story about searching for God in space
and Razzie Awards for worst picture
director and actor it’s easy to see why
this entry almost killed the franchise
say one thing Spock you never cease to
amaze me nor I myself number 9
Superman for the quest for peace no pain
no gain
here’s another successful franchise that
lost its way
once the Superman film rights were
passed on to the notoriously low budget
cannon films everyone screamed in unison
what were they thinking don’t do it the
painful the resultant disaster peace
actually killed this franchise as the
world waited almost 20 years for a
reboot it’s as it always was on the
brink with good fighting even seeing 25
critics agreed that the film was beyond
boring the effects were cheap looking
and all the actors seemed like they
wished they were somewhere else you’d
risk worldwide nuclear war for your own
personal financial gain nobody wants war
I just want to keep the threat lush
Christopher Reeve famously predicted to
Jon Cryer that the movie was going to be
terrible and lo and behold Superman
himself was right
you didn’t need superpowers to figure
that out though
number eight howling – your sister is a
werewolf the inhabitants of the earth
have been made drunk with her blood and
I saw her sit upon the hairy beast
unlike our previous two entries horror
film franchises will not necessarily die
out no matter how bad a sequel is this
type of bullet killed your sister
unfortunately they were removed during
the autopsy and as a result she can
never rest in peace the follow-up to the
now cult classic the howling was such a
mismatched disaster that audiences and
critics were not sure if the studio was
playing a joke on them later we come
back and make you one of ours
barely following the original the film’s
only saving grace was horror legend
Christopher Lee’s inclusion although he
later apologized to Joe Dante the
original film’s director for appearing
in this terrible sequel let me challenge
but we cannot make a mistake not with
him despite all this and having
originally been subtitled werewolf bitch
the horror flick spawned six more
sequels
number seven going overboard oh by the
way I do weddings in case your parents
decide I’m getting married
seeing what you want about Adam Sandler
but he had some great successes early in
his career this is why the world has
chosen to forget his film debut going
overboard well what you’re about to see
is a fictitious loosely thrown together
story about a sea cruise waiter me right
here who dreams of becoming a stand-up
comedian in this comedy Sandler plays a
crappy struggling comedian on a cruise
ship that gets a chance to perform and
succeeds after learning about the power
of laughter
use the power of laughter lactic Holub
laughter he always says that that maybe
it has a meaning or something how’s that
ha ha ha I don’t worry me yeah I don’t
mean
then terrorists climb onto the ship to
kill miss Australia and Sandler’s Shecky
saves the day by offering to put them in
a movie Oh are we
this is the actual plot of this film we
are not making this up so you can
understand why it has thankfully fallen
into obscurity I like comedy
I like being funny that’s it all right
number six Howard the Duck that’s it no
more mr. nice duck when the world heard
that George Lucas was finally bringing
Marvel Comics to the big screen we’re
sure that nobody expected the character
he’d be adapting would be Howard the
Duck Bev I’m not a real sentimental guy
no I bet you were born from a very
hard-boiled egg the end result barely
resembled the comics and was such a mess
that all the actors had a hard time
finding work after this film
no one laughs at a master of quack fou
Willard Huyck never directed again and
well we all know what happened to George
Lucas after this creepy interspecies sex
Duck nudity and cheesy duck puns create
an underwhelming experience that not
even future Oscar winner Tim Robbins
could save despite the sci-fi comedy
flicks now cult status
hopefully the Marvel Cinematic Universe
can do this character just as someday
gross number 5 Mac and me you know what
I feel like a Big Mac man is a genius
I’m psyche I tell you we don’t think
anyone expected this feature-length
McDonald’s commercial disguised as an et
knockoff to be a masterpiece but did it
have to be so criminally mind-numbing
everything’s ruined it’s totally ruined
it wasn’t me mom is the little creature
I thought it was supposedly aimed at
children but it insulted even their
intelligence on you about the Mac yet
the only difference between Mac and me
and Spielberg’s classic is that the main
character is in a wheelchair and
everyone is brought together at the end
by the power of McDonald’s hamburgers oh
and coca-cola – he took my coke I don’t
have another ticket the sci-fi adventure
movie was rightfully a box office
disaster and it’s planned sequel was
thankfully immediately cancelled at
least it’s given Paul Rudd and Conan
O’Brien something to joke about
Robert Smigel looks off yeah I’m gonna
say well so many people are just used
that’s the guy who does try them how
many times have you shown that clip on
this show over the years well we just
shot that this number for Leonard part 6
I don’t understand but I imagine
eventually everything will be clear no
this is not the sixth entry in a
franchise and yes the entire world was
confused by the title however that is
just the tip of the iceberg of reasons
why nobody want to see this comedy it
just got to stop being so hard on
yourself although denounced by Bill
Cosby himself who practically begged
audiences not to see it the spy movie
parody was actually produced by and
starred the comedian
we need you Leonard you don’t need me
you need the ASPCA will pay your regular
fee six million dollars why don’t you
just blow her up in the comedy Cosby is
supposed to be a James Bond type of
operative trying to save the world from
evil vegetarians by using meat as a
weapon it more than deserved it’s trio
of Razzie Awards for worst actor
screenplay and picture and was for a
time considered to be the worst thing
that Bill Cosby ever did whatever you do
some old fall on that number three the
Garbage Pail Kids movie my god it’s good
and Johnny we still live in a Hollywood
that can turn any product into a film
and while it sometimes works such as
with the lego movie sometimes it doesn’t
Battleship anyone
you think this can be some super-secret
Navy surprise exercise because if so
this day they’ve gone way too far and
sometimes you just try to imagine what
the pitch meeting for some ideas look
like and if everyone was either asleep
or drunk when they greenlit certain
things might come here what did you eat
everything
that’ll do it alright the Garbage Pail
Kids were a brilliant and popular
trading card series parody and Cabbage
Patch Kids dolls but it’s film
adaptation turned them into nightmare
creatures well perhaps it would have
been safer to lock them away from the
world with terrible effects that make
them unwatchable and gross-out humor
that won’t even make children laugh this
films cult status is hard to swallow
oh we want to go to a fashion show how
did you go out you might get caught
number two King Kong lives while the
1976 remake was a box-office success
this sequel falls short on every level
how can a King Kong movie be so boring
how’s our boy doing it the plot revolves
around the scientists that have been
keeping Kong alive while he’s in a coma
after the monster fell off the twin
towers they give him an artificial heart
and a female Kong to give him a blood
transfusion to save his life though it’s
not meant to be a comedy King Kong lives
is laughable for all the wrong reasons
the 1933 original had better special
effects than this it’s pom-poms Betty
before we reveal our number one pick
here are some honorable or in this case
dishonorable mentions Jesus
he is pissed
I just had a beard all over my body
yeah okay I got fingernails besides a
french fries teeth from here to Texas
get that she called me a dog come here
come here
number one jaws the revenge come on you
overgrown ghoul biscuit uncle jig in a
world with sharknadoes and mutant
piranhas this movie is somehow the most
laughable underwater monster movie well
at least it was in the 80s
get up mediocrity were fattening it all
be wailed another franchise shot dead in
the water
this fourth jaws film asks the question
that was on everybody’s minds what if
sharks can hold grudges and somehow
stock a family across a country jab
McGill Montana jion is following the
family hey that’s a mirage okay this
boring sequel expects us to believe that
this shark wants revenge on the Brody
family
for killing the original jaws and swims
from New York to the Bahamas looking
boring and mechanical the whole way and
to think Michael Caine missed out on
accepting his Oscar for Hannah and her
sisters in order to shoot this disaster
first time the best for everything after
that you know too much and nothing’s
ever quite the same do you agree with
our list
I knew it we’re all goners ah shut up
Madison what do you think is the worst
movie of the 1980s
