Not that I haven't seen far worse movies, but in each of these cases I
was expecting something better.
For me it's movies that look like they could be decent sci-fi movies
but turn out to be lame horror flicks.
A while back someone on the current films newsgroup was really talking
up the movie "Sunshine", saying what a great science fiction movie it
was. So I found it on DVD and watched it. Started off with a stupid
premise (a mission to re-ignite the sun with a nuclear bomb) and went
downhill from there. Turned into a really bad slasher flick in the
end. Terrible movie.

The plot was lame, but the visuals and music were very good.
