Honestly, have you seen House of the Dead? If Ed Wood were to rise from the grave and make a movie based on Rise of the Robots it would still be 2000 times better than House of the Dead.
Below is the most masculine picture I could find from Double Dragon.

SF the movie was a crime.  On the other hand, the anime movie was great.

Speaking of which, there for some reason is a Collecters Edition for Street Fighter.

I feel like I've done something wrong, merely posting that pic. Like I've ripped a hole in space and time.

had to go with street fighter, cause i havent seen house of the dead yet.
also havent seen wing commander, but i used to love the last star fighter. ;)
(i once won street fighter:  the movie (saturn) for  $1 and the bitch never sent it.  and yes i paid the $1 + shipping.  sucks cause i wanted that game bad...)

The funny thing is I was considering posting something like this today.  8)

Double Dragon was horrible, thou.  

  

Street Fighter had to be. The Mortal Kombats werent that bad and the Tomb Raiders werent that bad hell even SMBs was pretty good.

The Last Star Fighter RULES!

Can I just vote for them all?

I voted for House of the Dead.  Any movie that uses both clips of the video game the movie was based on and about seven consecutive bullet-time wrap-around shots in such a short period of time deserves the title of "worst video game movie ever."

Well said.
IZ, are you seriouslysaying Mortal Kombat Annihilation "wasnt that bad"?

Yes it wasnt that bad i have seen much worse. Probably the biggest factor in it being not that bad is because it is Mortal Kombat

Street Fighter was a crime commited against gamers and humanity in general *shudders*

I would also say House of the Dead. Mortal Kombat: Annihilation was really close though. I had to think about it for a while.

After looking at the vote breakdown, I'm almost positive most of the people voting didn't actually see House of the Dead or MKA. Both of those make Street Fighter look like Citizen Kane.

lol
have seen house of the dead or MKA... you are right.
i didnt think that the first MK was that bad, had some cool martial arts shit in it.

*waits for someone who knows martial arts to ream my ass cause MK wasnt real martial arts* :P

I haven't seen House of the Dead because it looked like crap, so I put down Street Fighter.  That movie was just... I mean it was just... it's just too bad for any insult that I can think of.  The first MK was pretty awesome, I love that movie, but the second made me want to wipe my ass with the movie poster right there in the theater.

Come to think of it, I think MKA and Street Fighter are at a tie for me.  I don't want to watch either of them again to end this argument with myself though, so it's staying as a tie.

That has to be what everyone is doing. Otherwise, there is no way Street Fighter could possibly be winning this poll. House of the Dead was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad.

Basically from me that is the reason but if house of the Dead is that bad then SF must be at least that bad and i dont see how almost any other movie has votes.

House of the Dead is worth seeing, simply because its so bad. Its like watching Show Girls, but without the uh... stuff thats actually kind of... interesting.

We may have another title to add to our poll here. It just came out that Ben Kingsley will star in BloodRayne:

Oh Jesus.  That's bad news if I ever heard it.  Does anybody know what happened to the Crazy Taxi movie that was supposed to come out?  I think it was announced around the same time House of the Dead was, but I haven't heard much on it since then.

What about the Metroid movie? That was licensed by Miramax i think. But either way whoever had the rights dropped them. I think Wu was supposed to be directing the movie.

Like Lou Gossett, Jr. and Raul Julia, Ben Kingsley is an Oscar-winning actor who still won't let a bad script come between him and another payday.

I still think it's a shame that Raul Julia's last movie was "Mortal Kombat."

It wasn't. It was Street Fighter.

And it could have been worse. His last movie could have been Romero. Did anyone see that crap? I had to sit through it like 3 or 4 times in high school. Teachers never communicate with each other and it always results in them showing you movies that last years teachers already showed you.

Yeah I remember seeing Romero vaguely I think.
Speaking of teachers not communicating, in my American History class, we learned that War is an act of congress. And then in US Government we were asked in a test "What was the last war we were in?" So going by the actual "correct" way to think of that I said "World War 2" and got it wrong. Of course the bastard didnt care about what the other teacher had told me. Nothing better than the American education system.
Hm.. sorry about that little rant there guys.

I do recall two teachers making me watch the second version of "Of Mice and Men" but thankfully thats a good movie.

Oh yeah, speaking of which, isnt the guy who directed House of the Dead doing the Blood Rayne movie?

I couldn't remember which Jean-Claude Van Damme video game movie Raul Julia was in because I think I remember them coming out close to each other.

Anyone seen "Alien vs. Predator" yet? I know there was a comic book series before there was the video game but a lot of people will think of it as a video game movie. Apparently there was no advance screening because it's hard to find reviews today. No advance screening usually signals a lack of confidence on the studio's part.

I might go see it with some friends. The least i can do the kid offered to buy me a $60 game.
I think it will be one of those bad but good movies. Like most of the movies on this thread except the few that suck astronomically.

Has anyone ever read the alien vs. predator vs. the terminator comic?

never read it.
but this is a fan film of batman that is inline with the alien v. predator film.
its pretty good but might take awhile to load it up.

Wasn't there a Batman vs. Punisher crossover comic? I think a third party did it because they would have had to license from both Marvel and DC.

man this is taxing my memory but i think that "lake of fire" was the DC version of batman v. punisher.  maybe marvel and DC each did their own ala snk v. capcom?
i wish i could check but my comcics are over at the parents.

sorry this is getting way off topic.  but it was a DC/Marvel book.

It was after I gave up collecting so I never really knew for a fact what was going on with that.

Those werent too bad. One of them I remember had a great line where the Punisher punched Batman because he wouldnt let him kill The Joker, and Batman said "That one was free, because I think you needed it."

I was browsing the IMDB the other day and noticed that SEVERAL of these made the "Bottom 100" list.  Take a look:

http://www.imdb.com/chart/bottom

They have House of the Dead as the worst at #28, followed by Mortal Kombat: Annihilation at #63, Double Dragon at #66, and Street Fighter at #67.  Pokemon: The First Movie also makes an appearance at #92.

i had to say resident evil because, although some parts were very cool, the plot made absolutely no sense and there was no apparent reason that some people would stay normal longer after being infected (members of the main cast). I almost went with Super Mario Brothers because it had nothing to do with the game at all, but it really wasnt a horrible movie.
As for Mortal Kombat, anyone who likes MK MUST like that movie at least better than every other movie.  Wing Commander was very good and i highly suggest "Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom" for PSX, it has live action cutscenes and even stars Mark Hamill !

Ha.  Mark Hamill is so washed up that he's resorted to starring in video game cut-scenes.  Does that send a message to anyone else?

Give the guy a break it was in '96.(if im not mistaken) Message is He needed money and got some by starring in a franchise game. At least thats the one i got. No shame in being a freenscreen vgstar far as im concerned. Id love to be incorporated into a videogame.

Hmm... he's mostly done cartoon voice work since he got in the crash and got that scar on his face. (The joker in the original good Batman animated series)

bringing up another old topic ;)
Mortal Kombat Annihilation was horrorable

Well since I have never seen any of these

Double Dragon
Street Fighter
Winger Commander
Super Mario Bros.
The Wizard
Resident Evil

I went with House of the Dead.

Well I voted a long time ago but I don't know what for.

Out of all of these movies, I'd have to vote for Wing Commander...I don't seem to remember much from the movie other than disappointment, so it must be the worst one of the batch in my eyes ;)  

The Wizard

House of the Dead. I mean, how cheap do you have to be to edit video GAME footage into your movie as a part of the action sequences? This one is overdue for Smithee award consideration. Absolute TRASH!

Hey was this a Uwe Boll film?

Yeah, that would be Uwe Boll for you.

I actually thought House of the Dead was pretty funny.  I took the entire movie with a grain of salt...I played the game a ton on Dreamcast, so I found it pretty funny when they flashed the game screens during the action scenes of the movie :)

The Maligned Dirty Leon                Oct 7th, 2004, 9:17pm        House of the Dead (uugghh)

The movie does suck ass but I agree with Speedy. I have seen the movie 5 times or so.  :-/

Double Dragon, in my mind, bar none.  The acting was bad, the dialogue was worse, the characters were HORRIBLE, and to top it all off there was one of the guys from Melrose Place (I think it was Melrose) as a MARTIAL ARTIST.  He couldn't kick higher than his belt and he was supposed to be a "great fighter"!

Just... eww.  I need to go retch now.

That's what I figured. Uugghh is for damn sure.

I'm embarrased to know this, but you are thinking of Scott Wolf and he was from Party of Five.

Anyways, I was looking at the list again, and I just noticed that outside of Tomb Raider 1 and 2 and House of the Dead, I saw all of these movies in the theater.  Damn I suck.

I've seen Mortal Kombat (Sort of. I was watching it at a friend's house and I got bored so went home), Tomb Raider, House of the Dead, Street Fighter, Super Mario Bros, and Resident Evil.

Resident Evil was ok but nothing special. I'm not sure what all the fuss is about it being so bad.

Street Fighter and Super Mario Bros. were great when I was young. Street Fighter just seems like any other Van Damme movie. Good for a laugh, or a night in with the friends and some beer.

Tomb raider wasn't particularly bad.

I only saw a few bits of Mortal Kombat, so I can't really comment. It just seemed like a load of random fighting sequences.

I'd heard House of the Dead was bad, so I bought the DVD in a £5 BOGOF offer. Hoooly crap, it's bad. It had no plot to it at all.
