The Definitive Worst Movies of All Time
In September of this year, the British Magazine Sight & Sound will publish their once-a-decade list of the Greatest Movies of All Time. Yet never before (to my knowledge) has anyone ever done something like this in regards to the Worst Movies of All Time! Sure, this may be for good reason (after all, aren't bad movies things that warrant avoiding?), but I digress.
Over the past week and a half, I've gathered 49 different lists of the worst movies of all time from 49 different publications for the purpose of seeing which movies show up the most frequently. If any time said publication would make their list according to a different publication, I would use that publication instead unless said publication is not available. These publications could be websites, Youtube channels, other IMDB users like myself, and even IMDB itself, as long as it's done in regards to the Worst Movies of All Time!
Note: Only movies that showed up 7 or more times will appear here; otherwise, there would be far too many movies to add.
You can now download the full dataset right here to see which other movies showed up, just not enough times to make it onto the main list: https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/ryanfagen/worst-movies-of-all-time
