From Justin to Kelly 2003，IMDB Rating: 1.9, IMDB Votes: 27067, ID: 0339034 Photo by wikipedia.org, is licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0 From Justin to Kelly is a musical disaster that fails to capture any charm or chemistry between its leads, American Idol contestants Justin Guarini and Kelly Clarkson. The plot is banal, the songs are forgettable, and the dance numbers are cringeworthy. Despite the potential for a fun, light-hearted spring break romance, the film falls flat and feels like a soulless cash grab. It’s a prime example of how not to make a musical.
4. Glitter 2001，IMDB Rating: 2.4, IMDB Votes: 24148, ID: 0118589 Photo by Wikipedia, is licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0 Glitter, starring Mariah Carey, is a clichéd and uninspired attempt at a musical drama. The film’s plot is predictable, the acting is subpar, and the soundtrack fails to impress. Carey’s performance, while not entirely terrible, is overshadowed by the film’s overall lack of originality and coherence. Glitter is a forgettable film that fails to shine.

The plot is absurd, with a vengeful shark following the Brody family to the Bahamas. The special effects are laughable, and the film lacks any real tension or suspense. It’s a prime example of a franchise that should have ended long before this installment.

The film’s plot is nonsensical, and Carvey’s talent for mimicry is wasted on juvenile gags and unfunny situations. The movie’s only redeeming quality is its brevity, but even that feels like an eternity. It’s a painful watch that leaves you questioning how it ever got made.

It’s a holiday movie that’s so bad, it’s almost good.
10. Saving Christmas 2014，IMDB Rating: 1.3, IMDB Votes: 16800, ID: 4009460 Photo by Wikipedia, is licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0 Saving Christmas is a disjointed mess that feels more like a PSA than a movie. Kirk Cameron’s attempt to defend the materialism of Christmas is both preachy and poorly executed. The film’s shoddy production and lack of coherent plot make it a painful watch. It’s a dreadful movie that fails to capture the true spirit of Christmas, making it one of the worst holiday films ever made.

13. Mac and Me 1988，IMDB Rating: 3.4, IMDB Votes: 14671, ID: 0095560 Photo by wordpress.com, is licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0 Mac and Me is a hilariously bad exercise in product placement, shamelessly ripping off E.T. while promoting McDonald’s and Coca-Cola. The alien costumes are horrifyingly bad, and the plot is driven by the aliens’ overpowering need for Coca-Cola. Despite its technical competence, the movie is infamous for its blatant commercialism and lack of originality. It’s so bad that it’s good, making it a fun watch for those who enjoy laughing at terrible movies.
14. Catwoman 2004，IMDB Rating: 3.4, IMDB Votes: 126626, ID: 0327554 Photo by Wikipedia, is licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0 Halle Berry’s ‘Catwoman’ is a visually appealing but ultimately hollow superhero film.
