The Dirty Dozen: The Twelve Worst-Reviewed Films of 2005

• There were 32 films which received fewer than 10% positive reviews, per RT
• Forty films had a Metacritic score below 32/100 (Equal to worse than one and a quarter stars out of four.)
• 35 films were rated below 3.7 at IMDB
• Twelve films appeared on all three lists, and they are summarized on the linked chart.
• There was no consensus this year, unlike last year, which saw Superbabies crawl away from the competition.
• According to RT, the worst-reviewed film of the year was King's Ransom, which received no good reviews at all out of 42. Running neck and neck with it was Alone in the Dark, with 1% positive reviews out of 111.
• According to Metacritic, the worst reviews belonged to David DeFalco's Chaos, with an impressive average score of 3/100!
• According to IMDb voters, the worst film of the year was In The Mix, which is currently sporting an 1.5 score!
• In comparing all three lists, I concluded that the consensus "winner" was Ewe Boll's Alone in the Dark, followed by King's Ransom and Son of the Mask.
• I was very fortunate this year. The only one of the twelve I had to watch was Dirty Love.
