Movies that are so mind-numbingly bad that I wanted to jam an ice pick into my forehead after watching them.

Worst film of 2011 and that is saying a lot considering Transformers 3 and Green Lantern both came out in 2011.

36 Metascore

Director: Samuel Bayer | Stars: Jackie Earle Haley, Rooney Mara, Kyle Gallner, Katie Cassidy

Votes: 107,431 | Gross: $63.08M

Completely unnecessary remake of a classic. Great casting of Jackie Earl Haley but he is wasted under makeup that looks like those stupid cat creatures from Sleepwalkers. Add an unlikable protagonist and the result... a turgid piece of crap.

34 Metascore

Director: Rob Zombie | Stars: Scout Taylor-Compton, Tyler Mane, Malcolm McDowell, Sheri Moon Zombie

Votes: 59,783 | Gross: $33.39M

Zombie can make a good movie but he was the wrong choice for the Halloween franchise. His first one was barely passable but this one is horrible.

58 Metascore

Votes: 25,842

Someone needs to kick Lucky McKee out of the Directors Guild. Has he made a good movie yet? He's the Brett Ratner of horror.

I can sum this movie up in one word... incoherent.

If this is what young people enjoy nowadays, I fear for our future.

Director: Timothy A. Chey | Stars: Malcolm McDowell, Shannen Fields, Corbin Bernsen, Tom Sizemore

Votes: 4,150

Ignore the "planted" reviews. This is a wretched piece of *beep* Just when you thought Malcolm McDowell couldn't sink lower than Zombie's Halloween II he cranks out this turd.

I really didn't think they could make a good movie based on a board game. Turns out, I was right. If this is what movie-goers are asking for nowadays, we are screwed.

Director: Anthony Hemingway | Stars: Cuba Gooding Jr., Gerald McRaney, David Oyelowo, Andre Royo

Votes: 37,241 | Gross: $49.88M

An insult to the real Tuskegee Airmen. Lucas proves, once again, he hasn't a clue how to make a good film anymore.

Director: Dan Bradley | Stars: Chris Hemsworth, Isabel Lucas, Josh Hutcherson, Josh Peck

Votes: 80,546 | Gross: $44.81M

There are so many things wrong with this film I don't have enough space to list them all. This makes the original look like Citizen Kane.

Stars: Anthony Edwards, Carmen Ejogo, Scott Michael Foster, Addison Timlin

Votes: 5,495

I realize that this is a TV series but an exception had to be made. This is the most mind-numblingly stupid thing I have ever seen. How this made it beyond the script stage is beyond me.

22. Jug Face (2013)

R | 81 min | Drama, Horror, Thriller

58 Metascore

Director: Chad Crawford Kinkle | Stars: Sean Bridgers, Lauren Ashley Carter, Kaitlin Cullum, Larry Fessenden

Votes: 7,955

It's as if someone had a list of things that would offend people and tried to check all the boxes. Incest... check. Miscarriage... check. Mom diddling her daughter's privates... check. I'm not a prude but this flick was pointless.

What a surprise, Lucky McKee was involved.

R | 99 min | Horror, Thriller

49 Metascore

I could care less if it has an all-female cast, the thing I do care about is that is horribly unfunny.
