For starters despite the X rating the... |

477,701 | 463,200 | 56,528 | 2 | Horrendously dubbed Italian vampires | A VERY badly dubbed Italian vampire film from 1962 . A young couple , Louise and Wolfgang ( ! ! ) in the 16th century ( I believe ) are menaced by a vampire .

478,590 | 463,200 | 74,815 | 2 | Hated the original , but this is even WORSE ! | I think " Rosemary's Baby " is the most overrated horror film out there .

478,610 | 463,200 | 82,812 | 2 | I remember when they were filming this in Boston . . . | it was great ! Lots of excitement . . . too bad the movie sucks . Someone is killing women in a school in Boston . That's basically it for the plot . It's slow , dull with no gore ( except for one very unpleasant scene ) .

477,229 | 463,200 | 166,811 | 2 | Only worth seeing for hunky Esai Morales | He's the only reason to see this film . He gives a very good performance - - much better than this crap deserves .

He's another talented actor who deserves better but , like Esai , he gives a ver... |

The movie isn'... |
479,102 | 463,200 | 373,051 | 3 | Aside from some cool 3D effects this is pretty terrible | This film says that the events in Jules Vernes " Journey to the Centre of the Earth " really happened .

477,751 | 463,200 | 71,249 | 3 | Pretty bad | How this has such a high rating here is beyond me . This film has been blasted by critics ( and audiences ) for years . Heck , it's even in the book " The Fifty Worst Films of All Time " ! Maybe it's not that bad but it's certainly not good . In Mexico a powerful man named El Jefe orders his hired killers to " bring me... |

Then she returns and wants her son back . She's rich now . Voight has to become a boxer again to provide... |
477,159 | 463,200 | 67,359 | 3 | Terrible but somewhat interesting | Movie based on Jacqueline Susann's best-selling novel .

479,261 | 463,200 | 295,254 | 4 | Visually interesting . . . but that's it | Movie about a website in which you get killed in 2 days after watching it . . . or something like that . The plot is vague and the explanation for the killing was particularly stupid . Also Natascha McElhone was atrocious - - I've NEVER seen a worst actress ! Her facial expressions never matched the dialogue and her ro... |
479,232 | 463,200 | 248,667 | 4 | Muddled | Pic follows Muhammed Ali from 1964 to 1974 chronicling his winning the heavyweight championship , losing it and winning it again . This could have been good , but it fails in so many ways . For starters , Will Smith is totally miscast as Ali - - Ali was handsome , full of life and charismatic - - Smith is none of those... |
477,742 | 463,200 | 244,799 | 4 | Too much boring strip teases | Compilation of coming attractions of some VERY odd , stupid and downright sleazy movies .

479,674 | 463,200 | 61,094 | 4 | Even the kids will be bored by this | Filmed in Supermariomation ( seriously ) . Feature film version of a kids TV show that used marionettes . I'm too young to remember the show and the movie assumes you already know the characters so I was little confused about what was going on . It opens with a long sequence of hilariously obvious miniatures helping la... |

A fraternity ( Delta House ) has for years tormented Dean Wormer ( John Vernon ) by trashing his campus and wrecking havoc with really sick , immature behavior .

478,090 | 463,200 | 74,356 | 4 | MIGHT scare kids | Boring , obvious " horror " film about 2 idiots who go to search for the title creature . Obviously this is just another ripoff of the legend of Bigfoot . I saw this back in 1976 at a local theatre when I was 14 . I went because the local paper gave it a positive write up . I also dragged along my 9 year old brother an... |
478,493 | 463,200 | 186,894 | 4 | Boring with a capital | Very dull , totally predictable " romantic " drama about a self-absorbed ad ex Buddy ( Affleck ) who gives his airline ticket away to a married man ( Tony Goldwyn ) so he can get to bed a sexy blond he just met .

479,111 | 463,200 | 53,219 | 4 | Pretty silly , and unnecessary sequel | Like father , like son . This is a black & white sequel to the color original . The sone of the originals ' father starts the same experiments as his father and the same thing happens to him . The acting is pretty good ( Price and Halsey do a very good job ) but the makeup on Halsey is laughable , the plot has nothing ... |
477,580 | 463,200 | 29,992 | 4 | OK I guess | Mean old Ebenezer Scrooge ( Reginald Owen ) is visited by his dead partner Marley and the ghosts of Christmas past , present and yet to be . They are there to warn him to change his ways or die a miserable old man . I know it's probably considered blasphemy to dislike this movie but I do . It was done on a big budget w... |
478,434 | 463,200 | 100,670 | 4 | Horrible but fun , in a silly way , . . . | ONLY if you grew up during the 1970s . David Cassidy ( looking great ) , Olivia d'Abo ( with English accent intact ) and Geoff Hoyle ( WHO ? ? ? ) travel from 2176 to 1976 by mistake .

477,538 | 463,200 | 160,127 | 4 | Sexist , stupid and boring | Wow ! What a load of cp ! I didn't think it was possible , but this movie is even worse than the TV show ! The plot is beyond stupid - - to be totally honest I can't really remember it . Anyways , it's just an excuse to have Drew Barrymore , Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz get into VERY tight outfits and prance around . I'm ... |
477,442 | 463,200 | 60,877 | 4 | Loved it as a kid | When I was growing up ( late 70s ) a local TV station used to show this constantly on Saturday afternoons along with other AIP horror movies .

477,613 | 463,200 | 35,703 | 4 | I didn't like it | Spiritual ( I guess ) tale of a man named " Little Joe " ( Eddie " Rochester " Anderson ) who is saved from the Devil by the prayers of his wife .

478,155 | 463,200 | 47,114 | 4 | Nice color and imagery but little else | Plot less short about some Greek gods ( or something ) getting together in a pleasure dome .

478,809 | 463,200 | 65,810 | 4 | Extremely dated | White students are being bused into an inner city all black school . The students aren't happy with it . . . will violence erupt ? This movie dealt with a very hot topic in 1970 that doesn't really exist anymore . The plot ( and characters ) and the the racism angle are played very broadly and simplistically . There's ... |
477,886 | 463,200 | 57,193 | 4 | I just didn't like it | The words of a dying thief ( Jimmy Durante ) sets off a cross country race from various parties to get a stash of money .
