Before adding a movie to the list:
Ensure that it is widely considered one of the worst films by a broad spectrum of both casual and professional film critics. There are hundreds of "bad" or even "crappy" films, this page is for the worst.
Cite at least one of those sources (Preferably the most reliable one(s)) that explicitly calls it "one of the worst films ever"
Check the list of films removed from this article to see if it has already been considered. If so, please ask on this talk page before re-adding it. If removing a movie from the list, please add it to the Removed films page, with a comment detailing your reasons for doing so.

I bring this here because it has been removed many times before, at least going back 14 years according to Talk:List of films considered the worst/Removed films. In the past I have removed it because the only source calling it "one of the worst" was a passing mention in The Independent's the obituary for the film's composer.[1] Although I can't find any source explicitly calling the definitive worst movie ever made, I have found many source that call it "one of the worst", including: The Guardian, ComingSoon.net, MSN, Collider, GameRant, Screen Rant, MTV News, and Bloody Disgusting. It's also the oldest film to be in Rotten Tomatoes top ten worst list, appears in the Empire list, and probably many others.LM2000 (talk) 12:12, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
