3000 Miles to Graceland
(2001)

Blah
Virtually without any redeeming features. There's not a good actor in the whole film, nor any memorable dialogue, nor is the story particularly captivating. The actors - particularly Kurt Russel and Courtney Cox - have the sex appeal of cardboard, and speak with all the enthusiasm of speaking to tech support. What's more, Demian Lichtenstein thinks that he has enough story for the film to run two hours, but wastes it by staging the most (potentially) interesting part within the first half-hour.

If you look under the awards, you'll see that this was nominated for a number of Razzies. There's good reason for that: this is among the worst films that I have seen.

Gary the Rat
(2003)

Awful
As part of TNN's (now Spike TV's) answer to Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, Gary the Rat belongs up there with Sci-Fi's Tripping the Rift as far as terrible adult-aimed cartoons go. Honestly, entire episodes would go by without a single laugh - I'm surprised it lasted beyond the pilot, which was utterly grating. And this is coming from someone who enjoyed 3-South on MTV, a show that took the 'idiotic character' concept to ridiculous extremes.

Why Kelsey Grammar sullied his name with this garbage, we may never know, but at least TNN - sorry, Spike TV - won't be making the mistake of renewing it anytime soon.

Van Helsing
(2004)

AGH
Van Helsing collects the worst aspects of summer movies into one giant, two -hour mess. Special effects take precedence over any kind of script or acting, and the movie is so ham-fisted and cliched in its dialogue that a better part of the movie is laughable. Dracula's performance borders on parody in the earlier parts of the film, and new characters and plot twists are introduced without any sort of rhyme or reason - see if you can catch such oddities as vampires in the daytime or at least one character who keeps falling into the same cliffside river. As if that weren't enough, the whole thing goes on for over two hours; by the time the final scene rolled around which goes for the sentimental ending, the audience was chuckling.

In short: worse than The Punisher.
