Worst movie of the Year
Listing made from the year I was born; 1979 to date. I've decided to give also shout-out for four other awful movies, basically making this listing Top 5 Worst movies of the year. However, list does not include TV- or low budget movies, unless it's absolutely necessary to do so. I've also noted most horrendous role performance(s) of each year, strictly my opinion of it. It might be lead role or supporting, actor or actress.
