This is more of a confession than anything. Something i need to get of my chest.

About four or five years ago, i was with three of my mates and we wanted to go and see a film. We walked up to the hatch and we soon had a decision to make.

We could either pay the £4.50 (as it was then) to go and see 'Seven' or 'Showgirls'.

A tough decision as i am sure you would agree.

Being four teenagers do we go and see a dark, deep film. Well writen. Fantastic acting, a film that would stimulate our blossoming minds. Or should we go and see Showgirls.

To cut a long story short, and after countless seconds of discusion we decided upon....... Showgirls.

I can hear the cries of derision now.

It was without a doubt the worst film that i have ever seen and if it wasn't for the fact that the film was full of scantily clad fit young women i think that i would have felt rather cheated. I think it was the kind of film that was made for a video release, or channel five.

Anyway this leads me to my point. What is the worst film that you have either seen or payed good money to go and see.

By the way. I wanted to go and see 'Seven' but was outvoted.

I considered going to see Wild Wild West at the cinema, but didn't.

When I saw it on video I realised how crap it was.

Though that song ruled.

Wicky wicky wah wah.

I remember seeing Wiggy Wiggy Wild Wild West and thinking it was really, really good. Then I saw it at home on video and the horrible truth emerged - it's one of the worst films ever.

Ah good times.

There was a definite theme to that day, with those films...

Can I just add that I wasn't there, I was working, but I would have definitely chosen Seven.

I did, however, suggest seeing both The Lost World (Jurassic Park 2) and Batman and Robin on the same day.

I still don't know why Batman kept looking at Alfred like he wanted to bed him.

I also went to see 'Lost in Space' at the cinema, but left before the end.

Eyes Wide Shut.

What a crap and pointless film. I'm sure someone's gonna come here and tell me how it was all about society and how people work, but I reckon Kubrick knew he was dying and just wanted to see some neked ladies.

It's the only time I've wished the building I was currently in to burn down with me inside.
