There are actually quite a few high quality old-school actors in that - Prochnow, certainly, plus Patrick Stewart, Jose Ferrer, Sian Phillips, Max von Sydow... Max freakin' von Sydow, for Pete's sake. You try to tell yourself that it can't be THAT bad... but it is.

I also have to recommend any 1970s Godzilla movie especially after it's been dubbed in English. Godzilla vs. Megalon stands out in my memory but I'm sure there are plenty more to choose from. And the horrible gaijin edit of the original is pretty awful, especially if you've seen the original original.

Independence Day
Transformers 2
The Abyss

That's about 6+ hours of my life I want back.

Probably any Hollywood remake of a previous movie would make it on the list as well.

All three Starship Troopers were a load of s***, for flips sake nuke the bugs and stop fart a***ing around.

BTW: Effects were cheesy.

Vanilla Sky with Tom Cruise. I was genuinely pissed that I had taken the time and spent the $$$ to rent that piece of garbage.

Chuck Norris has been mentioned several times already... and why I didn't think of this classic in the first place:

Breaker! Breaker!

It was so bad I couldn't look away.

Same here. I haven't read the book, and I'm sure it's faaar better than the movie, but I still thought the movie was fun. Sort of like the 4th Indiana Jones, except not really.
