Yikes. I hadn't even heard of these. There's a movie called "The Clown Murders" starring John Candy and I've somehow never heard of it.
Your pick for his worst movie has a hilariously apropos title.

This jogged my memory of a really terrible low budget movie I saw years ago...which turned out to be this.  |

I'm amazed no one's got Nothing But Trouble for worst yet. Yeah, it's bad (the Brazilians, I could do without) but I've got a soft spot for it. Nice macabre tone and Candy in drag, what's not to love?

Nothing about "Wagon's East!"? The movie that killed Candy?

Nice macabre tone and Candy in drag, what's not to love? I probably haven't seen that one. I'm abstaining from voting/listing movies based entirely on reputation. |

The Clown Murders is an odd film choice for Candy. Its not a horror film as advertised but rather a crime thriller. Its really bad but seeing John in a thriller like that is amusing.     |

Double Negative is an odd one because its a serious thriller that has the stars of SCTV in it oddly enough. Candy plays a coke addicted guy in a psycho ward.  |
