Z Movies
You may have noticed missing in the list above a movie usually cited as the "worst movie ever made", Ed Wood's 'Plan 9 from Outer Space' (1959). The reason being that the list above are graded A movies and B movies. In other words they at least tried to be good but failed. On the other hand, Z movies are a class of their own. Made from outside the established film industry with extremely low budgets, nonprofessional actors, minimal scripts, bad editing, sound, lighting, etc., usually combining horror, sex, or violence to give cheap filler for 'Drive-in' theaters, popular in the '50s and '60s that often showed 3 or 4 movies back to back in an evening. This is not to say that "bad" films can't be fun. Look at the cult popularity of 'Mystery Science Theater 3000' that ran from 1988 to 1999, poking wisecracks and funny dialogue at poorly made movies. But Edward D. Wood Jr. still holds the crown for creating the "worst movie ever made".
