10 Awful Films The Lord Of The Rings Actors Want You To Forget

10. Jonathan Rhys-Davies (Gimli) - Anaconda 3: Offspring

Okay, Anaconda was a bad movie but at least Jon Voight's preposterously over-the-top performance made the film watchable.

Even though the first entry set the bar unrealistically low, the sequels are somehow worse, especially Anaconda 3: Offspring. The plot centres around an industrialist, played by Jonathan Rhys-Davies, who funds a secret experiment on snakes that could cure terminal illnesses in humans. This experiment leads to one anaconda growing to monstrous size until it breaks out of the facility and wreaks havoc on the area.

Now, if you were expecting dreadful plot, cheesy dialogue, and annoying characters, that's all there. But since this unnecessary sequel came out 11 years after the original, you'd expect the special effects to be a little better, right?

Well, somehow, they're worse than the first movie (even though CGI was in its infancy at the time). Watching Jonathan Rhys-Davies screaming in terror upon seeing the appallingly rendered snake is hilarious.

Sadly, you can't feel bad for the Welsh-born actor for starring in such a dud since he reprised the role in the equally dreadful sequel, Anaconda: Trail of Blood.
