I saw that film for the first time only recently. It does not deserve its "worst fim ever made" tag.
Rubbish yes. Worst film ever? No.

some of it is dreadful, but it's also better than most of what passes for a 'blockbuster' these days.
And it has an exploding Fred from Corrie in it

everyone knows The Phantom Menace is the worst film ever made.
(although I saw Alien vs Predator 2 the other day and it was a close contender..)

It really was dire. I sat there predicting *every* "scare" that was coming. Dross.

Well, I watched the first half hour, predicted the rest and turned on the last 20 minutes to watch my predictions come true. It was fucking shit.

I've not seen what sounds like the original, but The Descent is one of the biggest wastes of 2 hours of my life. Predictable, clunky, full of jilted dialogue, and about as scary as cardboard tube.

The dialogue probably wasn't anything to write home about, but the ending is extremely horrifying.
As in actual horror, not Saw-style splatter 'horror'.

I couldn't give a shit about any of the hollow idiot characters, or any semblance of plot, so it's impact was diminished. Also, it seemed to be an attempt at pseudo-intellectual psycho-nonsense, and was completely at odds to the drivel thrown around in the rest of the film. it was shit.

The only real problem with them was that they weren't the original trilogy.

the pod race should have been good but was ruined by an idiot child mouthing an awful script and not even greg proops could turn it around

The most irritating memories from that film mostly involve Gungans (including he-who-shall-not-be-named). Especially the battle scene with the sphere-throwing stuff.

I'd rather pay for and watch every chick flick for the next three years than watch FarCry again.
