6 Movie Scenes Acted So Badly We Can’t Forget Them

When it comes to movies, how actors decide to portray their character and the circumstances they find themselves in can really alter the perception of the entire scene. What is of even greater importance, that many do not consider because they are not physically scene in the movie, is the director. Every decision that the actor, cinematographer, costume designer, and more are all guided by the director. So how they interpret the scene is typically what you see in the movie. This can be really good in some instances, with the director and all moving parts and roles working together to create really amazing scenes. When this happens, scenes in movies can become etched in the minds of audiences forever. But when this dance of different parts and people do not move in the best rhythm, the results are less than desirable. This can create some less than magical performances that go down in history as just really really bad. For the most cringe worthy parts of films that are actually kind of hard to watch, check out these 6 movie scenes acted so badly we can’t forget them. 

“Lawwww” Scene  —c(1995)

In the film Judge Dredd, directed by Danny Cannon, there were several ridiculous scenes. But none were worse than when Judge Dredd, played by Sylvester Stallone, and Rico, played by Armand Assante, have their final confrontation at the end of the film. Rico lets out a long drawn out reading of the word “law,” and it is the terrible reason we are still talking about this movie today.  

“How’d It Get Burned” Scene  — The Wicker Man (2006)

This movie is so bad, the awful lines in these scenes are highly quotable, even if you haven’t seen the movie. Nicolas Cage is particularly bad in one scene, where he finds a burned doll that might belong to his daughter who’s gone missing. He yells over and over, “How’d it get burned?” By the end of the scene, we all want him to stop asking.
