As in like, I get there's really terrible B-movies and shit like Neil Breen's work that ends up on BOTW, but what's the worst movie that actually had a decent sized budget and was made by an actual movie studio and maybe even had some somewhat well known actors in it?

Maximum Overdrive (1986), in terms of falloff... how the hell do you peak in the intro with horrific dark comedy only to end up with a boring grueling mess later on...

Reminder to not adapt your own stories into films on your farts, let alone cocaine, ahem Stephen King...

Also, maybe don't have goddamned fucking AC/DC do the score for your 3-hour epic adapted from a 6-page short story. Even Peter Jackson didn't fuck up that badly with the Hobbit cash grab.

I like that movie so much. Not because it's good, but because it's a Stephen King movie, it's a movie he also directed. People had such high expectations, because now there is nothing in between his vision and the final product. And it's like a big fuck you to everyone who takes Stephen King serious.
