I found it last night and it crosses all genres.

Killer Tumbleweeds on Amazon Prime Video

https://us.amazon.com/gp/video/detai...autoplay=1&t=0

"The good people of Middle America are being attacked by tumbleweeds! The U.S. military is testing tumbleweeds as weapons to destroy terrorists. The tumbleweeds have escaped. Now hundreds of innocent people in Middle America have been killed. 10,000 head of livestock destroyed, not counting chickens and sheep and, more than 300,000 children are suffering Killer Tumbleweed Trauma. The military refuses to take responsibility. Our government will not comment. Only one news organization is bold enough to report on this tragedy. The whole world is watching it unfold."

Sounds like a movie that would've been roasted by Elvira back in the '8os..

There is no way that can be a worse movie than BEACHES. I would watch KILLER TUMBLEWEEDS every day for the next six months before I would watch BEACHES again.

I didn't see Beaches but I feel the same way about The Hours.

I didn't read Stephen King's short story "Trucks", but the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater is Maximum Overdrive.

One of the best is also from Stephen King......The Shawshank Redemption.

As director Garry Marshall vows, if you see this film, you'll understand women better. He is referring to men understanding women better, of course.

There's much, much worse than that out there. Maximum Overdrive is silly, campy fun.

Garry Marshall is wrong. Not every woman is a navel-gazing narcissist.

MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE is incredibly stupid but actually a lot of fun. It certainly isn't a good movie. But it is a great bad movie.

Worst movies I have ever seen in the theater?

HIGHLANDER 2. My date and I lasted about 20 minutes before we walked out.

RED HEAT. I don't know how an Ahnuld movie could be boring, but this one was. I actually fell asleep.

NOMADS. Supposedly a horror flick, starring Pierce Brosnan. It has a great movie poster. But the movie itself is a snoozefest. Another one where I actually fell asleep.
