Worst Movie Ever

I wasn't really intending to make this into a thread where everyone posts the worst movie they've ever seen (although I guess it's alright) but instead to discuss a movie I just wasted an hour of my time on.

Has anyone seen the 2003 movie Elephant? OMG what kind of sick @#$& director/producer/writer would even consider making such a thing!?!? This was about the worst story I have ever seen in a film production. Not to mention it had several camera shots over 30 seconds long and half of them were of the back of someone's head and a quarter of them were so blurry they'd make you nauseous to look at and the dialog and acting was pure amateur. But my main gripe is really the story, I never want to have to watch that again. I'd not an "all Disney all the time" type of movie watcher but I think this movie just takes it a little too far. I watch CSI three times a week, I've watched movies where whole cities are obliterated in an instant, and I don't mind it at all. But this Elephant movie really got to me. Treating human lives like a few pixels on the screen of a video game, just awful. I think movies that analyze the mind of a psycho person are interesting, but although I can't put my finger on it, something about this movie was just plain wrong and I didn't walk away from this movie with a good feeling at all.

After watching this, I'm sorry I own a TV and I'm sorry I pay extra for movie channels. That movie was really quite disturbing.

So, hopefully someone else has seen it and is with me on this one.

And for all of you who enjoy playing arcade games like Time Crisis and whatnot, I encourage you to watch this movie and maybe then you'll think again. I think PacMan eating little dots will do just fine for me.
