A French thriller directed by Gaspar Noe, starring Paz de la Huerta.
A drug dealer is shot when police try to bust him at a bar. What he experiences afterward is shown.
This has officially displaced all other contenders for "Worst Film Ever Made". In every one of the other films in the running, we get a clear view of something. Actors are visible, maybe we can see where they are, you get the idea. Some Kind of Monster may be grown men bickering and bitching for 3 hours, but at least we can see their faces. Not the case here. It looked like they hung the camera from the ceiling in an orbitron (human gyroscope) fair ride and just let it spin wherever it wanted. ALL of the shots are underexposed and too dark. EVERY light in the film blinks, flickers and flashes. Most of the time, the camera shots were out of focus. A good percentage of the video was pointless footage of walls, floors and other urban structures, but not good enough shots to see what these items were. The ENTIRE soundtrack consisted of electronic feedback with the sounds of human suffering over it. Although it does take skill to make a movie this bad, I'm going to have to rate it shit. Congrats, Gaspar. You have officially made "The Worst Film Ever"!
In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

The Beast of Yucca Flats (1961)
An American horror adventure directed by Coleman Francis, starring Tor Johnson.
A Russian scientist gets lost in an American desert near a nuclear bomb test site. The radiation turns him into a monster and he hunts for people to kill. Meanwhile, a family stops for gas nearby and their children get lost in the same desert.
This was horrible. Even though it was less than an hour in duration, I had to turn it off because it was so bad. The heavy narration is what really kills it. The narrator sounds like he is from a hokey old instructional video and the "monster" is the lamest I've ever seen. The pacing is so quick that one is unable to get into the film at all because it is so rushed. I have to rate it shit because it's worse than Some Kind of Monster (2004). DO NOT WATCH!!!!

Some Kind of Monster (2004)

A music documentary by Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky.
Aging rock stars, Metallica try to record an album without killing each other. They are assisted by their producer, Bob Rock and a professional therapist.
I've called this the worst movie ever made a few times and I'm writing this post to explain why. 2 of the 3 main characters argue with each other constantly while the third sits there wishing he could do something to make them stop. Lars is the antagonist here and even calls his father in to hear how bad they are doing. I believe that James goes to rehab mostly to get away from Lars and the therapist. Who wants to see middle aged men bitching and whining for over 2 hours? The only good part was an internet cartoon that made fun of the band. Rating this "shit", as I'm doing is an understatement. This is officially the worst film ever made.
