The Lighthouse....Worst Movie Ever Made?

[Revoltingest]

Take Eraserhead.
Add rain, mud & chamberpot accidents.
Throw in a pinch of Brokeback Mountain homoeroticism but with violence.
Make some pretentious literary references.
And you get a train wreck which makes There Will Be Blood look seem uplifting.

So you're saying there won't be any Oscar nominations??? LOL
Thanks for the heads up. Too many good flicks out there to waste time with the dogs.

I'd have to be a 9 on the drunkenness scale. Why don't you watch something more wholesome and creative like sharknado or lawmower man 2 ?

What movie could be worse than Eraserhead? I'm incredulous.

What movie could be worse than Eraserhead? I'm incredulous.

The Master The Master (2012) - IMDb

Pretentious, stunningly boring and Joaquin Phoenix's character is so irritating it's actually painful to watch.

One of the few films I've specifically chosen to watch but was physically incapable of watching until the end.

New What movie could be worse than Eraserhead? I'm incredulous.

Terror Squad. Objectively speaking, there is nothing worse than Terror Squad.

No, I expect it to be widely praised & oscarworthy?
- It's shot in pretentious black & white.
- The characters' bizarre antics will allow pseudo-sophisticates to read deep meaning.
- Only 2 actors...strange bordering-on-gibberish dialogue...all darkness & drearyness...
...it just reeks of "arthouse".
- Grisly violence & homo-eroticism are most fashionable these days.
Nominating the movie for awards is great for virtue signaling.

Objectively?
Have you seen both?

Worst Movie: It has to be Ghost Dad.

Eraserhead was fascinating.
Tis as though the makers of The Lighthouse thought to themselves.....
"Let's copy that movie, but make it wetter, muddier, & more brokeback."

None on your list compare with The Lonely Lady....Pia Zadora's masterpiece.

Have you seen both?

I'm banking hard on not having to, because Terror Squad, even calling a "z rate movie" is giving it far too much credit.

When the desire for big profits controls creative expression, this is what you get: very uncreative, exploitive, manipulative, pseudo-expression.

 

[Darkforbid]

Just tune to Sony Movies Action

Or sometimes people, including small studio and budget, just make bad movies that really suck.
