The quality of a movie is, of course, an entirely subjective thing. Nevertheless, I wanted to check out the numbers on the worst movies ever.

RottenTomatoes.com collects movie reviews from a vast base of critics that includes professionals, amateurs and anyone who knows how to pick a username and password. Thanks to this collective approach of rating the quality of a movie, I decided to go with their ruling on worst movies ever.
