"The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou", if there was any humour in that movie I totally missunderstood it I don't "get" Wes Anderson. The Royal Tenebaums left me perplexed. But Life Aquatic is his most accessible movie, perhaps, or at least the one I enjoyed most.

I agree with the poster who indicated Andy Warhol's disaster of a film entitled "Empire" Obviously you can't appreciate art. (kidding)

If the film is meant to be experimental it is in a category by itself--if it is meant to be commercial and fails at that...I disliked Blood of Fu Manchu a little more than Castle.
THE KEEPER, a 1976 Canadian film with Christopher Lee that failed to get distribution is the worst commercial film I have seen. Really awful, not even bad in a funny way.

I've never really appreciated experimental film making or music much. Anyone can do anything and call it art.
Just because you CAN film the Empire State Building for 8 hours, does that mean you should? What positives would an audience get out of watching it?

You can partially thank Marcel Duchamp for giving artists the "power" to define what is art and what is not. That's why you get 8 hours of the Empire State Building of just 2 black lines on a canvas.

Or Yoko Ono shrieking over discordant piano notes.

Well, my thinking is a picture is worth a 1000 words, but is 8 hours of a single shot of the Empire State Building worth even more? I think it fits in with the law of diminishing returns... IMHO

Even though I have a soft spot for 'so-bad-it's-good' and low budget movies that swing for the fences (in other words, on any given night at work, I probably have a terrible RedBox movie playing in the background), but far and away the most unenjoyable movie I have ever seen is "FearDotCom."
It was playing the weekend my city opened an IMAX theatre. My friends and I joke about it to this day...we figured it'd be bad, but wanted to see what the IMAX experience was all about...theater was great, movie was a dud. Big time.
It's an aggressively terrible movie that seems to be in that weird time of tech-focused movies (like "The Net" with Sandra Bullock...which was alright), but ended up being like a high school level film that consisted of the worst parts of "Scream" and "90210." To this day, I wonder what the guy who approved it being shown in the IMAX was smoking...and if he could hook a brother up.

Another question I have trouble with since I don't find movies to be unwatchable for some reason. However, I'd probably go for Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation as it's such a bizzare and awkward mess of a film that it is pretty much embarrassing and uncomfortable, and not in a good way. I usually don't mind weird and cooky movies (look at Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 for instance) but this was just weird in a gross way. I have no desire in buying it since they go for crazy prices online, and it only deserves the max of $5 at best. It's also an insult to the original '74 classic and Leatherface himself, so yeah.

The Rig was a bad movie, but it was so badly lit that it made it very difficult to watch.

The Relic. Bad lighting, incoherent and boring plot. Absolutely atrocious.

Empire by Andy Warhol. 8 hours of this and nothing else: This sounds like the winner right here! Eight freaking hours? Why? WHY???

Last Year in Marienbad.
And yet weirdly, I'd still recommend it.

Under The Skin(2012) you'll see why Yeah, this was tough to sit through. It seems to barely exist as a movie. By that mean, I an almost indecipherable plot that moves like molasses in January without even a hint of anything particularly interesting. Seems more an endurance test to see who can sit through such a sluggish, pretentious mess that some people will call brilliant.
