There aren't many movies that lack even a single redeeming quality - movies so inherently terrible that there is literally nothing good to say about them, no matter how hard you rack your brains in the search to find something - anything - worthwhile. Even the "worst movies," after all (those that are constantly cited as being some of the poorest motion pictures ever made) are at least hilarious or entertaining in their sheer awfulness - think of classics like The Room or Troll 2, both of which are intoxicatingly bad, but are all the better for it. We love 'em for being crap. So searching for a movie that has nothing going for it all - not in any way, shape or form - is a surprisingly difficult and perhaps even futile task. Take the first "bad movie" that comes to mind right now; chances are you'll still be able to cite at least one redeeming feature, be it the camera work, the musical choices, the fact that it features a couple of genuinely exciting action scenes. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen? Awful, but it does feature a very attractive Megan Fox - shallow as it is, that's still something of a redeeming quality. Especially if you're a teenage boy. Our picks for a movie without a single redeeming quality, then, goes to The Hottie and the Nottie, a film venture so downright terrible in absolutely every way, that even the title manages to be profusely annoying. Starring Paris Hilton (you can never use her as a "redeeming quality" unless she dies, like in House of Wax), this "comedy" falls flat in every single aspect of production - writing, acting, directing - and is almost unbearable to watch from start to finish. One critic actually described the film as "about as funny as the anal rape scene in The War Zone." Spot on. What do you think, then? Which movie has not a single redeeming quality?
