Any film starring Jerry Lewis, James Cagney, or Doris Day...

Any film starring Tom Cruise, Josh Hartnett, or Nicole Kidman...

I could never understand people falling over Beyond the Darkness - Joe D'Amato's necrophilia flick... a brain freezing experience from start to finish....

The Italian Job - I just really, really dislike it. Unbelievably boring.

Dressed to Kill - Third rate bullshit Hitchcock with a ridiculous end.

Forest Gump - Over-sentinemtal, schmatlzy bubblegum. Basically 3 hours of Spielberg and Zemeckis licking each others bits.

I used to think the same, until I saw it on the big screen - you really do appreciate it a lot more that way.


Oh man, don't say that! I'm having to pass up the chance to see it on the big screen at 5am on Sunday morning as I have to be in work later that day :(

best cure for insomnia yet.

:eek:

I'll be the first one to admit that I'm a huge Rollin fan. Yes, some of his films are a bit all over the place at times, but you can't argue with 'classics' like The Grapes of Death, Living Dead Girl and Fascination! Oh, and Zombie Lake of course. ;)

Rollin = Genius. :D

Completely agree with you on these two.

Ah, Saving Private Ryan - a so-called classic that I can't stand!

@ Wes: I'm a massive Cronenberg fan too (easily one of my favourite director's), however I also dislike A History of Violence. Ditto Eastern Promises. Cronenberg needs to go back to his roots and give us another all-out body-horror masterpiece!

I can't think of many other films that are regarded 'classics' that I can't stand.

Apocalypse Now, The Rocky Films, and Titanic are the only ones that I can think of at the moment.

Classic Films You Love To Hate
 
not a fan of SIXTH SENSE, SHINING, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, POLTERGEIST, NEAR DARK or anything by Bigelow, FRIGHT NIGHT, CHUCKY, rage not zombie film! 28 DAYS LATER, Jean Rollin - boring, TITANIC, AVATAR - overhyped bore

list goes on.............

Agreed. Saw it for the first time eariler this year and found it annoying as hell, and some of the attempts at humour frankly embarrasing! Still wanna check out Saovi's other stuff though after enjoying Stage Fright . . .

An extraordinary review by the Daily Express from 1960....

In the last three and half years I have carted my travel-stained carcass to some of the filthiest and most festering slums in Asia. But nothing, nothing, nothing - neither the hopeless lepar colonies of East Pakistan, the back streets of Bombay nor the gutters of Calcutta - has left me with such a feeling of nausea and depression as I got this week while sitting through a new Bristish film called Peeping Tom... (Len Mosley, Daily Express)

he didn't like it so...
