Howard the Duck

Unfairly abused 80's classic. An allegory for how America treats it's foreigners, and people of different color (black), Howard the Duck is about an alien (Howard) who is an intelligent and productive being who is abused and mistreated by the American government and it's citizens. People who think this is the worst movie ever are whit and racist.

Aggressively unlikable on every level, Howard the Duck has something that's offensive to everyone's sensibilities. Whether it's the strange touches of literally inhuman sexuality, the total lack of humor, or the cringe-worthy acting, this is a movie whose very existence is a puzzle. Altogether, just deeply unpleasant.

The worst movie I've ever seen. Amazingly bad;

this movie cant decide what it wants to be. Before it starts playing it says its PG but the dvd case says 14a. and that is basically what this movie struggles with all the way through. It seems like its all made for children, the crappy sappy acting and lack of profanity, but then it throughs in curve balls like a cocaine reference, a sexy bent over back shot of a chick in her underwear, annnnnnnnd i cant remember but i know there were more times where i thought it wasnt made for kids or adults.

So terrible....my bf and I watched it for shits and giggles and we could barely make it through

Many box office bombs don't really deserve their laughingstock reputation but, guess what? This one does -- and then some! Gerber's acerbic comic strip character becomes another big-screen animatronic waste of space. Jones adds a few mildly funny moments but this George Lucas-produced drek is still one of the worst -- if not *the* worst -- big-studio Hollywood production of the 1980s.

I used to love this when I was tiny. WHY?!

Why was this even made?

SO. MANY. DUCK. PUNS.

Never thought I'd give a movie a cool 100, but now I am. I've never seen a movie that went so far ahead in terms of what a single movie should discuss, how...decentralized it could be, or how long it could run. I love everyone involved in this project, even Tim Robbins. In many senses, this movie is an extract of what 80s cinema had to offer, and 10 minutes into the thing you'll realize that no movies like this were made before, and none will be after, the most maligned decade in movie history.

I feel like a went to hell

Where do they get the idea for a movie like this? Funny though.

good old one...well it was cute

Brilliant. When you think there's absolutely no way this could get worse, a giant insect comes out of the floor. I mean, this has to be the worst flick I've ever seen, but it's so bad it's close to the best one I've ever seen.

I remember this very fondly.

mostly rubbish...but i always thought the 'dark overlords of the universe' were cool...

This is terrible, but I'm not going to deny that every once in awhile I go back and watch it again. It's terrible, but it's ridiculous and silly.

The cinematic equivalent of finding a stash of years-old Halloween candy in the back of a closet. Colorful, a bit gross, and a relic of days gone by. I found myself sincerely loving this film about 1/3 of the time.
