30 very bad sequels
Keep in mind I don't generally watch something if it looks horrible, so there is a lot of dreck that I've missed. Also to qualify as a bad sequel on this list, the original one has to be good. In other words, Young Guns II doesn't qualify.

- DirectorDavid FincherStarsSigourney WeaverCharles S. DuttonCharles DanceReturning from LV-426, Ellen Ripley crash-lands on the maximum-security prison Fiorina 161, where she discovers that she has unwittingly brought along an unwelcome visitor.The reason Aliens worked is it was totally different from Alien. This movie is sh*t. Another "oh no, an alien is stalking us and we have no weapons" ploy. This time done poorly.
- DirectorGeorge P. CosmatosStarsSylvester StalloneRichard CrennaCharles NapierRambo returns to the jungles of Vietnam on a mission to infiltrate an enemy base-camp and rescue the American POWs still held captive there.John Rambo actually died at the end the the novel First Blood. I rest my case.
- DirectorJonathan MostowStarsArnold SchwarzeneggerNick StahlKristanna LokenA machine from a post-apocalyptic future travels back in time to protect a man and a woman from an advanced robotic assassin to ensure they both survive a nuclear attack.Actually, I've never sat through this whole train wreck. As soon as it began, sans the terminator theme, I was done.
- DirectorJoseph SargentStarsLorraine GaryLance GuestMario Van PeeblesChief Brody's widow believes that her family is deliberately being targeted by another shark in search of revenge.Enough has already been said of this hot mess.
- DirectorJeannot SzwarcStarsRoy ScheiderLorraine GaryMurray HamiltonPolice chief Brody must protect the citizens of Amity after a second monstrous shark begins terrorizing the waters.Really, another shark for Brody to face down? Horsesh*t.
- DirectorJoe AlvesStarsDennis QuaidBess ArmstrongSimon MacCorkindaleA giant thirty-five-foot shark becomes trapped in a SeaWorld theme park and it's up to the sons of police chief Brody to rescue everyone.Crapolla
- DirectorStephen HopkinsStarsDanny GloverGary BuseyKevin Peter HallThe Predator returns to Earth, this time to stake a claim on the war-torn streets of a dystopian Los Angeles.Basically this is a bad 80s cop movie with the predator thrown into it. The only redeeming scene is the end. Why not make a good cop movie with the predator in it? GASP!!!
- DirectorJean-Pierre JeunetStarsSigourney WeaverWinona RyderDominique PinonTwo centuries after her death, a powerful human/alien hybrid clone of Ellen Ripley aids a crew of space pirates in stopping the aliens from reaching Earth.This one isn't as bad as Alien3, but it's still utterly pointless.
- DirectorRenny HarlinStarsBruce WillisWilliam AthertonBonnie BedeliaJohn McClane attempts to avert disaster as rogue military operatives seize control of Dulles International Airport in Washington, D.C.This could be the worst sequel ever made. Almost the exact same situation, during the exact same holiday, with the exact same cop. Totally believable. I love the way the catch phrase looks like it was filmed later as an after thought.
- DirectorRidley ScottStarsAnthony HopkinsJulianne MooreGary OldmanLiving in exile, Dr. Hannibal Lecter tries to reconnect with now disgraced F.B.I. Agent Clarice Starling, and finds himself a target for revenge from a powerful victim.Let's turn one of the best and scariest villians in film history into a schmuck that says "Okey Dokey" all the time. Oh, and the ending in the book? Screw that. We're a bunch of p*ssies and can't cope with such icky scary darkness.
- DirectorRichard DonnerStarsMel GibsonDanny GloverJoe PesciRiggs and Murtaugh are on the trail of South African diplomats who are using their immunity to engage in criminal activities.Formula follow up to the prototype modern buddy cop flick
- DirectorIrvin KershnerStarsPeter WellerNancy AllenBelinda BauerRoboCop returns to protect the citizens of old Detroit but faces a deadly challenge when a rogue OCP member secretly creates a new, evil RoboCop 2.Utter crap
- StarsJon VoightBarbara HersheyRicky SchroderHead back to Lonesome Dove in this sequel to one of the most-loved miniseries of all time.Not based on any book, pointless "sequel" to a truly great film.
- DirectorJohn CarpenterStarsKurt RussellSteve BuscemiStacy KeachSnake Plissken is once again called in by the United States government to recover a potential doomsday device from Los Angeles, now an autonomous island where undesirables are deported.The worst kind of sequel formula: a retread
- DirectorWilliam ShatnerStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyCaptain Kirk and his crew must deal with Mr. Spock's long-lost half-brother who hijacks the Enterprise for an obsessive search for God at the center of the galaxy.Words cannot express the suckage that is the Final Frontier...
- DirectorBob ClarkStarsDan MonahanWyatt KnightMark HerrierThe naughty high schoolers of Angel Beach High now seek revenge on a group of KKK religious fanatics and corrupt politicians who want to shut down their Shakespeare production after they cast a Seminole transfer student in the lead.Pointless

- DirectorSidney J. FurieStarsChristopher ReeveGene HackmanMargot KidderThe Man of Steel crusades for nuclear disarmament and meets Lex Luthor's latest creation, Nuclear Man.really bad
- DirectorJoe RothStarsRobert CarradineCurtis ArmstrongLarry B. ScottThe rising college nerds set out to a convention in Florida, but are not welcomed by the Alpha Beta representatives.I don't even remember any specific scene in this pointless sequel
- DirectorStuart BairdStarsPatrick StewartJonathan FrakesBrent SpinerThe Enterprise is diverted to the Romulan homeworld Romulus, supposedly because they want to negotiate a peace treaty. Captain Picard and his crew discover a serious threat to the Federation once Praetor Shinzon plans to attack Earth.The worst star trek film? maybe.
- DirectorBill NortonStarsCandy ClarkBo HopkinsRon HowardTold in four different New Year's Eves in the mid 1960s, John, Terry, Debbie, Steve and Laurie deal with adulthood, the Vietnam war, peace rallies, and relationships.Wow. Thanks goes out to my brother for reminding me about this piece of sh*t.
- DirectorRoy William NeillStarsLon Chaney Jr.Ilona MasseyPatric KnowlesThe resurrected Wolf Man, seeking a cure for his malady, enlists the aid of a mad scientist, who claims he will not only rid the Wolf Man of his nocturnal metamorphosis, but also revive the frozen body of Frankenstein's inhuman creation.Laughable trash. A double sequel, not living up to either.
- DirectorJohn LandisStarsDan AykroydJohn GoodmanWalter LevineElwood must reunite the old band, with a few new members, and go on another "Mission from God."The music on this is good. The story however is exactly the same as the first one, without any of the wit, originallity, or risk.
- DirectorJonathan FrakesStarsPatrick StewartJonathan FrakesBrent SpinerWhen the crew of the Enterprise learn of a Federation conspiracy against the inhabitants of a unique planet, Captain Picard begins an open rebellion.The least believable of the TNG movies. Worf's presence is definetely forced, for one thing. But realisticly if a fountain of youth was discovered and there was a small group of harmless, quaint villagers there, not a single person in the universe would argue with the idea of removing them for the rest of us to partake. Especially if none of them were going to be harmed, as is the case here.
- DirectorTommy Lee WallaceStarsWilliam RagsdaleRoddy McDowallTraci Lind"Fright Night Part 2" is a sequel to "link=tt0089175]". Charley Brewster and the horror host Peter Vincent must face more vampires, out for revenge.Once Jerry's dead, movie's over. period.
- DirectorBlake EdwardsStarsPeter SellersDavid NivenHerbert LomJournalist Marie Jouvet attempts to uncover the mysterious disappearance of Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau.This one was tragic. Peter Sellers died dring the making of it. So, instaed of scrapping it, they finished it with stock footage. Not a fitting memory to Sellers' genius.
- DirectorDavid S. WardStarsCharlie SheenTom BerengerCorbin BernsenThe Indians are now a World Series contender. But last year's hunger is now replaced with complacency, and bad decisions by the new owner threaten to tear the team apart.Pointless
