Unless you think a work of art can be so bad it's good, you should probably steer clear of these movies.

Netflix is renowned as a streaming service that caters to every type of viewer. Even fans of truly dreadful trash movies can have their needs met!

We're not here to judge your guilty pleasures or masochistic obsessions, folks. Here's a list of the worst movies available on Netflix in October 2023.

7. The Ridiculous 6 (2015)

IMDb rating: 4.8/10

Who would have guessed that a film produced by Adam Sandler would turn out to be utter nonsense? Despite a star-studded cast, many of whom are regulars at Happy Productions, this western comedy proved excessively stupid and unfunny.

6. The Bubble (2022)

IMDb rating: 4.7/10

Like The Ridiculous 6, The Bubble was an instance where a stellar cast couldn't save a tasteless script. The film ended up being a cynical and humorless exploitation of the tragic COVID-19 pandemic, and it was not redeemed by the ensemble or Judd Apatow's direction.

5. Tall Girl 2 (2022)

IMDb rating: 4.7/10

Not that the first installment was a hit: audiences criticized the film's premise, which attempted to fabricate a misrepresentation issue for a conventionally attractive girl. However, it was Tall Girl 2 that turned out to be utterly ridiculous, pointless, and filled with contrived drama.

4. Death Note (2017)

IMDb rating: 4.6/10

With the release of One Piece, Netflix demonstrated that it could produce quality live-action adaptations, but until then, the platform was known for its unfortunate knack for ruining good source material. 2017's Death Note was not only disrespectful to fans but also to the original manga story.

3. Thunder Force (2021)

IMDb rating: 4.5/10

Thunder Force promised to be a superb superhero satire featuring the magnificent Octavia Spencer and Melissa McCarthy. However, the film primarily served as a satire of how films should NOT be made.

2. The Last Thing He Wanted (2020)

IMDb rating: 4.3/10

A political thriller starring Anne Hathaway, Ben Affleck, and Willem Dafoe? In 2020, we would have been all in! But now, the only thing we can say about this film is that the script is a total mess.

1. The Last Days of American Crime (2020)

IMDb rating: 3.8/10

No, even a film made for streaming platforms has the right to be that long and yet fail to deliver a coherent plot. While directors like Denis Villeneuve and Martin Scorsese take three hours or more to flesh out every detail of their stories, the 2.5 hours of The Last Days of American Crime barely reveal anything meaningful.
