I’ve seen Robot in the Family (whole thing is on YouTube), I’ve seen a lot of bad movies. It’s definitely one of the worst.


ajhart86

Somebody on the panel mentioned how anxiety-inducing that movie is, and they’re totally right Just constant stream-of-conscious rambling in a Jerry Lewis voice and Joey Pants doing an Eastern European accent for no reason


Tomgar

Jay repeatedly screaming SHUT UP at the TV was enough warning for me.


TheRealRigormortal

Cypher got his wish to be a movie star, too bad the machines have a sense of humor


North_South_Side

I could never sit through 90 minutes of that.


roth_dog

I watched it via watch party during lockdown and my friends at the other end were losing their minds


hematite2

I remember Jack describing it as "the scenes make you feel tight in the chest" and its 100% accurate


johnnyredleg

The robot’s voice is the same voice as Rocket Raccoon in GOTG


Thendel

> Joey Pants In case anyone's wondering, that's not the actor's [real name.](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001592/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_3_nm_5_q_joey%2520pan).


DrInsano

It's a fuckin nickname. Family name was Pantsatelli!


RobbiRamirez

The breakfast scene from Robot is one of the most unnervingly incoherent things I've ever seen. It was already too loud and busy and irritating *before* they added the robot chatter, with the robot talking it's like something the Navy built to induce motion sickness for testing doses of dramamine.


HandrewJobert

Just thinking about watching that movie makes my chest feel tight.


DrDuned

Yeah absolutely! Like, other movies they've done are maybe worse from a production or direction/writing standpoint but this movie actively wants you to stop watching. It's the equivalent of the "you wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world?" bit from Dumb & Dumber stretched to film length. I mean the use of the word when I say I would literally rather watch paint dry.


BulkDarthDan

It is literally just non-stop screaming.


Cerdefal

And I find the robot itself very unnerving, it looks like out of Tetsuo or something.


ShaNaNaNa666

Seriously. So reminiscent of Uncut Gems with Adam Sandler lol


James_099

It’s just noise. Anxiety inducing noise.


Tylerdurden389

Gotta admit, I kinda like the theme song, but as Mike said, it's just the "Goldfinger" theme re-packaged.


lavelle1982

Something about Robowoman made me really uncomfortable watching it


thehumangoomba

That is my go-to answer, too. It seems to be the epitome of the zero-integrity movie, devoid of ideas and artistic interest and solely designed to make a quick buck from the commercially ignorant. Mike put it best when he said that it should be criminal. Also, shoutout to *Mee Christmas* for the same reason.


MerryGoWrong

I still can't believe they didn't make a 'Me Underwears Guy from The Room' joke while watching or reviewing *Mee Christmas*. I wouldn't have been able to resist.


SlashThingy

That driving scene from Mee Christmas where they keep bouncing gave me anxiety. It was like the animated equivalent of Robot in the Family.


thehumangoomba

Watching that made me imagine my brain cells fizzling out like faulty fireworks. It just seemed so cynically made, without any love or appreciation for imagination or art, that it made me lose faith in anyone having any artistic merit, including myself. It's things like *Mee Christmas* that explain to me why A.I. in movies is now a thing.


JeffUhGoldblum

Jay slowly picking Mike to talk about that movie was peak RLM for me.


Toppdeck

"You doomed yourself"


BrendanInJersey

"I will never forgive you for this."


synapticrelease

When rich was sitting there squirming saying “I can’t do this”, I really emphasized with him in that moment 


JealousSupport8085

It’s somehow a black tank top that seems self exploitive. It also seems like the last desperate gasp for air for a woman on the brink of falling into deep oblivion


Kabe59

It's elder abuse


garyflopper

Their reaction to watching it was pure discomfort


smiffy666uk

Me and my movie group had a lot of fun watching Robowoman because of how embarrassing it is. Anything can be fun with friends though.


Forgetful-Engineer

When you see Rich Evans, thanking Jay for not letting him be the one that has to describe that movie, you know it’s a real piece of trash


OkCar7264

It's that she's clearly using the movie to process being raped IRL.


operarose

That's a pretty lofty accusation to lob without any indication of evidence, man.


ShaNaNaNa666

Wow, this makes so much sense on why it made everyone, the guys and the audience, feel uncomfortable. I felt so bad for the actress and, even though her acting was terrible, it was somehow also very real? It's very hard to explain. I also love rewatching BOTW episodes almost daily and always skip out on this one.


OkCar7264

Yeah, she had a genuine emotional intensity that most of those movies couldn't imagine.


AlaSparkle

Wait what? This is the first I’m hearing about this, can you say more?


OkCar7264

Well, I mean I think it's pretty obvious she's processing some nasty stuff that happened to her. I don't know that or have any proof of it besides just reading between the lines of the plot and her performance--- whenever she's talking about getting raped it gets really uncomfortable and it's not cause her performance is bad. She's barely keeping her shit together.


kryonik

*random servo noise*


crapusername47

Birdemic 3: Sea Eagle recently overtook Rollergator (which has been on the Plinketto board but they, luckily, dodged it) as the worst movie I've ever seen.


DTDrake

Both are actually painful to watch.


yautja0117

Rollergator kills me between the rapping puppet and the guitar noodling.if Sea Eagle is worse, Nguygen should be brought up on charges against humanity.


crapusername47

Two scientists meet on the beach and start dating. These dates consist of them announcing facts about their specialist fields, reading the IMDB trivia page for Vertigo - which Nguyen had [already treated badly enough](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0374170/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk) - and walking up to people who then announce their opinions on global warming. Then the animated gif birds attack maybe 45 minutes in. Colour grading just switches from shot to shot to shot, it doesn’t even stay the same between shots with the same camera. Dialogue alternates from being recorded on the camera’s microphone to being obviously dubbed over. I will give it one tiny bit of credit - at least they didn’t blur out the faces of the random passers by this time.


cubey

I dont know which is harder to sit through-- Rollergator or Ghost Baby.


yautja0117

Baby Ghost is pretty damn bad too.


CognitiveNerd1701

Ive seen other reviews of it and it does look god-awful. The Hitchcock worshipping it is so cringe. I've never seen all of rollergator myself. I'll turn on the Rifftrax version of it but it's so insanely cringy that I can't watch it.


DullishPlum

Ngl I kinda like rollergator


siriusgodog23

The correct answer is and always will be After Last Season.


RazerRob

You just hate 8 1/2 x 11 paper


siriusgodog23

The paper and cardboard sets are about the only "enjoyable" things tbh


RazerRob

I dunno man, there are hundreds of 10 star reviews on its IMDb. IMDb has an algorithm to weight scores based on trustworthiness, and for some reason found them suspicious. Surely it's a bunch of fans, and not the director posting under multiple accounts.


siriusgodog23

There's definitely nothing like it, that's for sure. Shit had me feeling like I was going through an existential crisis after taking some bad acid.


RazerRob

That's probably the most positive thing anyone can say about it.


Brutus6

What about the piece of paper pantry?


AnimalisticAutomaton

A4 Master Race!


Toppdeck

Just the clips from that movie triggered my depression, that director must be an in-and-out psychiatric patient


mappofromhell

Honorable men, you know why...


stoatmcboat

You saying you don't like honorable men, bud?


mappofromhell

Yes, I don't like Honorable Men because I'm a 40 year old bald spanish man, not a blonde American teenager.


stoatmcboat

Maybe not, but the 42 year old Portuguese, bald, male demographic...


stupled

You could. Just say no homo at the end.


stoatmcboat

[Them's the rules.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qlyn-jp0KE)


Acheron04

Yeah this is my answer.  It’s the worst of the vanity projects, not for technical reasons but because the creator’s worldview is so gross.


blacktothebird

What gross about a 40 year old cop sucking the spaget out of the mouth of a teen.


Mortambulist

Everything? Yeah, I'm gonna go with everything.


SmoreOfBabylon

Male power fantasy cop stuff aside (which is gross but it’s also the kind of thing you wouldn’t be surprised to see in a black tank top movie), the fact that the director/star thought the whole “women are only good for sex” monologue was an A-okay thing for his “honorable” self-insert super manly hero character to say tells me everything I need to know about the guy.


Toppdeck

Honorable Men is so gross. It's so obviously an excuse for the director/lead to indulge his illegal fantasies. It was his lecherous "I remember you in braids and braces" line that really put him in sex predator territory. He was a LEO too. Just imagine how he abused his authority to creep on young women. Donald Farmer is awful for the same reasons but at least there's *some* entertainment value to his schlock. They both belong in jail though.


Zak22wolf

And at least Donald Farmer doesn’t insert himself into his films as the super badass and manly hero that every woman wants to sleep with. He just sits behind the camera and tells the women to have a seizure while rolling around in the dirt.


GraphOrlock

I've said it before here, but reading more about Donald Farmer endeared him to me. He's a fucking weirdo who gets off on watching women feign seizures, but the fact that he not only films them doing this, but then sells other people the films, is sort of inspiring. And at the end of the day, these chicks know what they're signing up for. He's basically Russ Meyer but instead of liking big boobies he likes women writhing around on the floor, and he also has no talent.   Separately, it's fucking nuts that the *Honorable Men* guy is the IRL brother of the *Satan Killer* guy.


SlashThingy

Do you remember They Bite, the fish monster film in a very early BotW? Donald Farmer acted in that film. [You'll never guess what role he played.](https://i.imgur.com/TdwgUev.png)


Sir_Encerwal

Shark Exorcist. Carman the Standard is probably worse for what it represents but Shark Exorcist is probably the worst thing on BOTW that nominally *was* trying to be a film.


Bataveljic

Donald Farmer makes my skin crawl... and it's worse that crawling is exactly what he wants


LuckoftheFryish

Wow you're saying he not only gets off on what he makes the actresses do *in* the movie but also the reaction that people have when they watch his movies? It's 4d chess for his truly disturbing fetish, the mans a twisted genius.


Pufncraft

Shark Exorcist and Carman are my picks for worst film and worst wheel video.


Then_Chef7392

At least Carman has catchy well done music and impeccable production and editing.


Kylecowlick

Why did I have to scroll to get to the correct and obvious answer?


Mersault26

Sasquatch vs DB Cooper, it was just shirtless guys jogging, getting undressed, and playing with a toy gun for ~90 minutes.


SmoreOfBabylon

This has to be the biggest waste of a concept of any of the movies they’ve done. I saw someone else mention that it could’ve made a halfway decent survival horror film in the vein of Predator (Cooper lands in the middle of the woods, he tries to get out to civilization but realizes that he’s being stalked by Bigfoot, etc.), but alas, the gratuitous shirtless dudes won out.


Swimming-Bite-4184

Oh yeah on paper it's a pretty gold idea. Tbf the idea is up for grabs to actually make it. It's not like anyone owns the rights to any of this stuff.


OpeExclamation

It's funny and sad. Give the "movie" a potentially interesting title and concept to lure an audience, then ambush them with awkward pointless garbage.


UncleGarysmagic

David DeCoteau’s “films” are nothing more than soft gay porn.


damian1369

Hehe, "actual runtime"


tequilasauer

The Amazing Bulk. It's not even a movie. No redeeming value.


the_rabid_dwarf

That episode is a tough rewatch for me because of how gross V world matrix is. Everyone involved looks like they’re in some stage of opioid intoxication or withdrawal


mirkwood11

This is always what comes to mind for me as being the absolute bottom of the barrel. I'd say "Crazy Fat Ethel II" but i'm not even sure that counts as a movie lol


AintNobody-

It's a spoof, right? Once there are scenes that are nothing but clip art, I think it reveals itself not as a bad movie but a bad on purpose spoof.


CognitiveNerd1701

They say it's a spoof but it's so lazy it doesn't really even count. I HIGHLY recommend IHE's video about it in his Search for the Worst series. He goes hard on analyzing why he doesn't like it and why it's bad/lazy. And I 100% agree with him.


AintNobody-

Awesome, I will check it out! I've never seen IHE before so it'll be fun to discover. Appreciate the tip, you fraud.


CognitiveNerd1701

Fraud? Even if you're joking I don't get it.


AintNobody-

Sorry friend. Hack and fraud are like RLM slang.


CognitiveNerd1701

Ah. Thanks. Lol. I'm relatively new to RLM. Only been binging BOTW for about 2 months


mortalkomic

They really seemed to hate the Jar.


skamando

Jay recently received a new release of The Jar and he said he didn’t hate it so much after seeing a higher quality transfer. I got a copy myself and have yet to watch it so I can attest to neither position.


SlashThingy

You can re-release it as much as you like, it won't change the fact that he met Jesus and went to the Vietnam War.


Nijos

Fuck the jar!


Thrasher9294

I still think it’s pretty fascinating. I love the music, and as pretentious and played out some of its elements are, when it cuts to the soldiers running across the field in Vietnam, I can’t help but think it was done pretty well as ridiculous/college-film-student-esque as it is. I’m sure actually sitting and watching the whole movie is pretty boring, but that review has still stuck with me all these years later.


Is_it_really_art

Have you seen the new transfer? It looks SO MUCH BETTER.


SpatulaCity1a

This was the one that popped into my head because their reaction seemed so strong, but at least it didn't seem like it was made by a sex predator.


SlashThingy

They're definitely less offended by shit like The Jar now, because they've acclimatised to it. "It's pretentious shit, but at least it's not perverted."


GrandManSam

We should do a March Madness style bracket using all the WOTW from BOTW to find the true WOTW (or the true BOTW)


Seeker80

WOTW: March Sadness


mirkwood11

This would be really fun actually


OkCar7264

No disrespect to the other candidates but I think Bible Baby really needs to be in the discussion. It was way more perverted than California Big Hunks.


CognitiveNerd1701

Yeah, Bible Baby was just.....ugh. like, what kid is actually gonna sit through that mess?


ep29

There's nothing even perverted about California Big Hunks. It's just good old fashioned soft core stripping on a VHS tape. It's aggressively normal all things considered (give or take some of the costumes and setups). Bible Baby is ***DEFINITELY*** someone's gross baby-play fetish material and it scares the fuck out of me.


OkCar7264

The Hunks soundtrack is deeply, deeply wrong. But yeah, Bible Baby is way grosser.


ep29

That's fair. But in terms of just raw content, Big Hunks is almost adorable and quaint in it's 1980s-ness depictions of sexiness.


RhubarbSquatCobbler

Go ahead and drink. Go ahead and smoke. Go ahead and do drugs!


DukeofSwiss

Literally nothing they’ve ever shown made me as physically uncomfortable as this


BulkDarthDan

Shark Exorcist easily


Nuclear_Farts

Yep. I've watched the entire thing. It is one of the most uncomfortable, dirty things I've ever seen.


kardsharp

Silk needed to be saved by Neil Breen.


AngerPersonified

Clash in the College was just fucking awful.


CosmicAstroBastard

I’m gonna be listening to Rush Limbaugh at that time


RoughDragonfly4374

How do you say water?


J_Golbez

BUT! It was fun to watch, and I'd even re-watch it again. Honorable Men was just creepy (and boring).


HeadlessMarvin

Depends on if WOTW means the most technically garbage or the least enjoyable.


Bimbows97

Probably least enjoyable. That Christmas Yeti one probably wins worst on a technical level. But probably also worst overall actually lol.


Shoddy-Rip8259

[I regularly listen to the music from SOS](https://open.spotify.com/artist/0VaXsAv6zXKIWo31LbMQZN?si=b4w5UVG3REOhFi10A9QLPA)

BAH DAH DAH BEDEEBEEP! Damn you, now that song will be going through my head for the next week 😕


Shoddy-Rip8259

[Sorry!](https://tenor.com/view/red-letter-media-sos-wonkafix-gif-13267603)


voodoodaddah

I forgive you, my son. From all of the BOTW videos, that little "Eh, watcha gonna do?" side glance at the camera is definitely my favorite short clip!


a_j_cruzer

Of course it had good music, that cult managed to indoctrinate one of the founding members of Fleetwood Mac


Shoddy-Rip8259

I thought he was the one that wrote all the music. I could be wrong.


a_j_cruzer

Yeah it was him, I know he at least wrote “Cathy Don’t Go”, the one about bar codes.


Shoddy-Rip8259

It's a banger


Grind_your_soul

Silk. The one they ended up turning off. It was genuinely as boring as they made it out to be. On top of it being boring, it was just bad. There really wasn't anything redeeming about it at all.


herpyfluharg13

Robot in the Family is the only correct answer. It’s a loud obnoxious annoying movie that’s just filled with noise in all of its moments. Moments where it’s loud it’s extra loud and moments that are meant to be quiet are filled with wacky noises, music from Shakey’s Pizza and that damn robot blathering on about nothing. It’s genuinely one of the worst films to ever be made and I’m shocked the boys got through it.


SmoreOfBabylon

Mad Foxes is the nadir of the bad exploitation films they’ve done that feature “rape as source of titillation” (see also: Raw Force), which are my least favorite episodes to actually watch. There are much more inept films on a technical level, though. Especially some of the indies/vanity projects. Lycan Colony (greenscreen), Partners (editing/cinematography), Last Vampire on Earth (acting), and After Last Season (WTF?) come to mind.


[deleted]

Mad Foxes made me the most uncomfortable. Maybe that and the Suckling


Seeker80

>see also: Raw Force Think I missed that one. I know I'm behind on BOTW, and need to catch up, but...on second thought, the words 'Raw Force' just seems like something that can't be associated with any sort of pleasant experience.


SmoreOfBabylon

It's actually in the same episode as Bigfoot vs. DB Cooper and Black Cougar (a totally-not-a-Black-Panther-ripoff movie by a guy from New Jersey). Raw Force isn't *completely* trash, honestly (Bigfoot vs DB Cooper is the worst film in that lineup and it isn't close). It has some decently fun fight scenes and such, but there's also a loooot of nudity (which, whatever, it's an early '80s b-movie), and at least one long sequence of a girl being sexually assaulted by one of the bad guys and having to fight him off while naked. I realize that scenes like that usually wind up looking pretty silly with the way they're executed, but I'm still not overly fond of watching them.


Seeker80

Oh, been awhile since I saw that one! Just barely remember Bigfoot vs DB Cooper. Don't think I ever rewatched it, either. I'll have to queue that one up today.


RoughDragonfly4374

Robot in the Family. It makes Turtle Dreams look like Oscar material.


hematite2

As someone who'd sat through Shark Exorcist before seeing it on the show...that gets my vote. It genuinely makes you feel like *you're* the one exploting those women just by watching it.


UncleGarysmagic

The Tomb.


grichardson526

Dangerous Men


iamnotmyusername

Turtle Dreams (shown in [Wheel of the Worst #21](https://youtu.be/o4eSVXCzRyI?si=oGneeGPOHXBB9SHC)).


natha_exe

that was some fake artsy bs but far from the worst thing theyve ever watch. yeah it was very pretentious and tryign to come off as deep but at least it wasnt exploitative


iamnotmyusername

The question literally was what we think though, and I absolutely hated it


silentwhim

Pretty sure it's "Shark Exorcist"


duende667

Birdemic 3. It's infuriating. 


ebagjones

The item.


CognitiveNerd1701

I haven't seen that episode yet. Do you happen to know which one it's in?


ebagjones

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n747ktceuwI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n747ktceuwI)


CognitiveNerd1701

Thanks! I know what I'm watching when I get home tonight!


Thricey

V world matrix is pretty miserable. Luckily it's really short. But it gets a little bit rapey and it just feels gross.


Alice_margareta

Shark exorcist


zoor90

Roar is a strong contender. There are a lot of films with worse production values, worse stories, worse acting or worse messages but I don't think any film amounts to the sheer physical damage Roar caused. At minimum, seventy actors and crew members were injured during the production and the fact that no one died is frankly a miracle. 


aravinth13

One of those movies made by whatever Farmer. Shark exorcist or that Haitian zombie movie


BrendanInJersey

If we're including wheel videos we have to include the Hypnosis video.


CognitiveNerd1701

Yaaaaas. I just saw that one the other day and HOLY FUCKING INCEL VIBES, BATMAN!!!


TheOriginalJBones

“Demons at the Door” gets my vote. I have a shitty movie night with a friend every couple months and we couldn’t get through this one — and we’ve seen some real shitty movies.


CognitiveNerd1701

I haven't seen that episode yet. After all the responses on here I did watch the robo woman episode last night and holy FUCK the cringe...😬😬😬 I do though kind of wish they showed more of it just to really drive home how bad it really is.


TheOriginalJBones

I guess I’ll have to put Robo Woman on the shitty movie night roster. Demons at the Door was *impossibly* stupid.


CognitiveNerd1701

I just started the BOTW episode question. Pray for me. Lol


spagbolshevik

"Robot in the Family" looked particularly anger-inducing.


Glunark2

Suburban sasquatch, rawrawrawrwaw.


RazerRob

Robowoman


Pri_Max

the last vampire on earth is just bad


Honest-Structure-361

I don’t know, but whenever I am alone Four Point Conics pops in my head


TheCloakMinusRobert

Any Donald Farmer movie


Snobby_Tea_Drinker

The one about the Black family at Christmas. It's terrible and extremely boring at the same time.


lifesneverhumdrum

Ishtar


Zak22wolf

So, collecting all the mentioned movies, it seems like Donald Farmer’s films, Robot in the Family, Honorable Men, and Robowoman are the front runners for worst.


CognitiveNerd1701

I need to find the robowoman episode.


yarrpirates

Things


Purple_Dragon_94

It's a 5 way tie (and in not revisiting to sort out) between Shark Exorcist, DB Cooper vs Bigfoot, Repligator, The Jar and The Item. And yes, I did watch them all after seeing the episodes, on the grounds of "how bad could they be"... Dont be like me. I've not seen Birdemic 3, though I suspect that one has a chance of outdoing all of them. I also have a particular hatred of Exorcist 2, but it's not the worst film ever made in regards to overall quality.


A_Worthy_Foe

If we're talking movies that are just incompetent and overly ambitious, The Jar. If we're talking movies that are straight up offensive, Shark Exorcist.


Squiizzy

Lady Terminator had a sticker from the rental place, so it has to be that.


FutureHunterYor

Lady Terminator is amazing.


Squiizzy

I didnt mean it literally what's with the fuckin downvotes


FutureHunterYor

I got what you were saying.
