Is "Escape from L.A." the worst movie ever?

[mizzou]

doesn't he shoot down a helicopter with a .38 special?

It's pretty terrible, but I've seen worse.

I would assume that it's intentionally terrible, but I don't know enough about the fan culture of those Escape flicks. ....I just 'hope' it's meant to be unbelievably bad.

You're correct, no one on Earth except you posseses that sadly inverted taste in Kurt Russell B movies.

Next you'll be claiming that Big Trouble in Little China is not the finest homage to Shaw Brothers movies made by an American director.

Na, however it's not in my Top 3 of Russell movies, that would probably go..

1. Tango & Cash
2. Executive Decision
3. Used Cars

How the hell do you leave out The Thing from your top 3 Russell movies list?

:thumbsup: for The Thing.

and Big Trouble? WTF???????
How is Tango and Cash part of this??

It's not great, but it is more of a cash in on the cult following movie so don't expect too much. No way near worst movie ever. Try one of the Madonna movie projects to get an inkling on what bad means.

Escape from LA would be the worst film ever EXCEPT it is the only movie to contain a soundtrack which includes a song by TOOL!

Escape from LA is however the worst movie in the world with a Tool song on the soundtrack. Oddly however, Escape from LA would be a better film without a soundtrack at all.

It better be ... I don't even know if the first one was intentionally bad.

"Strongest Man in the World" is Kurt Russell's finest movie. EFLA is the worst.
