Tim Curry as a total fruitcake in drag is nasty/repulsive! FYI: You spelt beefcake, tasty and resplendent wrong. Your mind is beginning to slip like your Hero, Lugosi.

Can't Stop the Music (1980) was mentioned earlier, that's probably the worst musical I've seen. From imdb trivia "This film, playing on a 99-cent double bill with Xanadu (1980), inspired John Wilson to create the Razzie Awards in 1980". This year's Razzie awards are coming up, I've never seen Xanadu, in the spirit of the Razzies I'm going to have to watch it sometime.
Runners up...
The First Nudie Musical (1976) - low budget cult film, has catchy songs like "Orgasm", "Lesbian, Butch, Dyke", and "Dancing Dildos". Someone on imdb pointed out to me this movie has been re-released on dvd! Very bad film, but made me laugh.
The Broadway Melody of 1929 - maybe has the worst dance numbers I've seen in a movie. Hollywood has come a loooong way from this crappy early musical effort.

Not sure if this counts as a musical but Rocky Horror Picture Show It does count as a musical. Before the movie was made it was even a stage musical (with an original cast album and everything).

While I wouldn't say it's the worst, I cannot stand Wicked at all. It's popularity baffles me.

Mine is: The Saddest Music in the World (2003). IMHO, it was dreadful!

I despised the movie. I couldn't find any endearing qualities in it

"Camelot" and "Man of La Mancha" Wonderful on stage and awful versions on film. Why made a musical with non-musical actors ? Why make drastic changes to a successful show ?

In the 40's they were churning out musicals left and right and a lot of them were crap. But also a lot of classics

The sound of music put me to sleep I hope you only listen to talk radio when driving. I'd hate for you to have an accident.

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007) But it should be said that i have not really seen that many musicals. I am sure there are musicals that is worse than Sweeney Todd. But out of the once i have seen that is the worst. If you think that version was bad... TCM just showed the taped stage production of this from 1979... everyone else was okay -- a little hard to accept such OLD people playing what should be teenagers and a preteen but c'est la vie. I was so turned off by the only noteworthy person in this -- ANGELA LANSBURY!!! GOOD GOD SHE WAS PITIFUL TO WATCH AND PAINFUL TO HEAR! OFF KEY AND IN A TOO HIGH TONE FOR HER.

"all of them right, imo !"Really? I thought it was alright- not as good as the stage musical, but still enjoyable.I love Abba´s music though, and otherwise the experience may be a bit dull . The story is in the music, not in the story itself if you know what I mean.

What's messy about my favorite musical? It's very much a straightforward story and the songs all blend together excellently. I probably just don't like the messy looking characters. Without The Rocky Horror Picture Show's big lip Tim Curry trademark (looking like those wax candy lips you probaly got at Halloween) we wouldn't have Miranda Sings (also without Colleen Ballinger..)

Any character in particular? Susan Sarandon looked absolutely stunning. Mind elaborating here? What do you mean by 'messy'? When I think messy I'm thinking of the very end of the story when the house takes off into outer space, leading to the "Super Heroes" sequence. All of them to be honest. I can't even recall the Super heores sequence, I really struggled through it when I watched it a long time ago. I just remembered thinking that given all of the hype about this play/movie that it was really disappointing. As a kid I loved the song though and I have an original soundtrack LP that is done in blood red vinyl. Wel, Susan Sarandon being a SJW(Social Justice Warrior has almost but not quite completely turned me off but see my last post..)
