13 Movies So Awful You Walked Out Of The Cinema

1. The Love Guru

Mike Myers The Love Guru
Paramount Pictures

For a while, Mike Myers had one of the best comedy gigs in Hollywood. He'd created three great characters in Wayne Campbell, Shrek and Austin Powers and they allowed him to pick up huge paychecks and occasionally make other interesting movies like 54 when he had the time.

Sadly, in amongst the Shrek sequels he made The Cat In The Hat, which was pretty bad and The Love Guru, which might well be one of the worst movies ever made. Ever.

Clearly lost in the assumption that every character he created was going to be as good as his successful trio, Myers goes full goofball in a film that starts with a masturbation joke and goes downhill fast from there. It is vulgar, crass and stupid without any laughs to make any of those things welcome, and it shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who showed the film their back while walking out of it that it's basically killed Myers' career as a lead.

Which other terrible movies belong on this list? Share your picks below in the comments thread.
