Lots of bad films out there. I just perused the wiki list of worst movies ever. It started in 1950, I guess going earlier was too much work, lol.

It is still a better film than Gigli.

Even with the wisecracks by Joel and the robots, it’s still one of the most profoundly depressing movies I’ve ever seen.

There are some scenes that are, frankly, disturbing.

Haven't seen that one. I could do some The Final Sacrifice riffs, though.

Don't forget Riding with Death, Werewolf, or The Projected Man (just to name a few). Still, Space Mutiny (a la MST3K) was damned funny.

Then, in 1992, a couple of yahoos with a show on Comedy Central stumbled across it in a public domain catalog.

"Philistine" is the word for you, Mr. Heller.

Restore a WORKPRINT, eh? Hopefully it’s a one-light workprint so it’ll look extra sh*tty.
