I'm not interested in how bad the MOVIE was, but how bad the IDEA its plot was based on is. I realize these will most often go hand in hand.
Theodore Rex - human and talking dinosaur buddy cop movie.

I'll see your Theodore Rex and raise you A Gnome Named Gnorm. From Wikipedia - Gnorm is just an average gnome, but he wants to impress the lady gnomes by doing something heroic. So he steals the gnomes' magic stones and exposes them to sunlight to recharge them. When he gets to the surface (gnomes live deep underground), he witnesses a murder and the killer ends up with his stones. Detective Casey, who was working a sting operation with the murdered man (another detective) is blamed for botching the sting, and causing the death. Wanting to catch the killer to clear his name, he teams up with Gnorm, whom he accidentally discovers. He is going to need Samantha's help, but she thinks he is a nut. See, no one else knows about Gnorm

Let there be Light - Author dies. Sees his dead son in Heaven. Guy comes back from Heaven and ex wife gets an idea to light up a big chunk of the world and space using cell phone lights. Not kidding. They light up the world using very small cell phone lights from the ground.
Loving the Bad Man - Young woman gets raped. She gets pregnant. She has the kids and visits her rapist in jail. She starts a friendship and seems to fall in love with her rapist. A film that is not afraid to have the protagonist a rapist.
War Room - Woman is in a horrible relationship. She gets advice not to leave him but to stay with him and hide in her closet and just pray for him. The movie that is not afraid to say mental abuse is easily fixable.
Backwoods - Woman gives birth to a fully formed adult who is a genius yet fall on his head and goes mentally retarded then a killer.

True but coming from a film that is supposed to be a moral faith film is insane. Its like it turns into a romance film between a woman and her rapist and its not portrayed as bad or odd.

I was going to say that the movie itself probably takes a very interesting and disturbing psychological idea and turns it into something tasteless.

Indeed it very tasteless to the fact that it becomes disturbing. Its a film you have to really see to believe it. Its a film that looks on the bright side of sexual assault. Its a film where the girl gets raped and then bakes her rapist cookies. No kidding.

Wow. There are a lot of bad movies called Backwoods, including the Gary Oldman movie The Backwoods.

No doubt financed by a wacko pro-life group, this fits their agenda to a T.

It's hard to say. Some films seem redundant. E.g. The Pocahontas/Dances with Wolves allegory. The rom-com guy changes because of girl or two people from different parts of society fall in love, it's forbidden, but find a way etc...
As far as worst premise ever?
Sharknado. As hilarious as it is, the premise is so ridiculous.

That's one I completely forgot about. Can't believe I didn't mention it!

"Bounty hunters from the future transport a doomed race car driver to New York City in 2009, where his mind will be replaced with that of a dead billionaire" - "Aliens who look like clowns come from outer space and terrorize a small town." -

I don't believe in such a thing. I think that every premise has the potential to be a good movie. It depends on how they execute it.
