Once upon a time in a galaxy far, far away, two avid Cinewisers set out to view the Worst Film Ever Made. They ignored warnings from The Glow, a legendary Cinewiser who’d suffered the journey not once, but twice before. They misinterpreted Entertainment Weekly’s spoof poster (left), assuming a film worthy of such mockery could only be so deserving if it were “so bad it’s good”. They were (relatively) young, they were (a little bit) innocent. They believed this was a film to see for themselves.
And so, these daring young cinema explorers – known as riCan and DubMc, at least to themselves – gathered their supplies, limbered their minds and ventured into a cold, cloudy Saturday afternoon screening of Battlefield Earth (2000).
They survived 20 minutes.
Believe the anti-hype people –
Battlefield Earth: A Saga of the year 3000 is the worst movie of our life time. Unbearably bad. Sickeningly bad...
