Summer Tomatometer Wrap-up #4: The Worst of the Summer
Over the past few days, we've tried to counter the common misconception that this summer's cinematic fare was bereft of quality. However, that doesn't mean the season was without some stinkers, at least critically speaking.
The most rotten movie of the summer was "Supercross: The Movie," which won praise from two percent of the critics. "Undiscovered," the title of which was often used derisively in reviews, stood at four percent. Rounding out the top five were "The Perfect Man" (six percent) "Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo" (10 percent), and "Honeymooners" (12 percent). The most rotten limited release of the summer was the Aussie slasher flick "Undead."
Here's the 20 most rotten films of the summer, in ascending order:
2% -- Supercross: The Movie
4% -- Undiscovered
6% -- The Perfect Man
10% -- Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo
12% -- Honeymooners
13% -- Stealth

It was better than any horror movie this year and I dont know why it got a low score. I also thought Dukes of Hazzard was good although I am a big fan of the shows re-runs. (Reply to this) |

SuperS writes: on Oct 07 2005 04:07 PM [b]omg[/b] Dukes of Hazzard could not of possibly done better.. In that way... This is the best it could reach in the TomatoMeter.... theres no way it could of gotten higher. I do not agree that House of Wax was the scariet horror flick this year. There were many good ones, if not, weird ones. 1. The Devils Rejects 2. High Tension And other that were somewhat better. (Reply to this) |

House of wax was a good movie in my opinion and i believe that if one person finds a movie worthwhile then whose to say its crap? exactly- balding old virginal film critics with no life, no friends and a failed film career for themselves.
