20 Worst Comic Book Movies…. Ever!

March 30, 2008 By: Michael Nease Category: Comic Book, Entertainment, film No Comments →

Ghost RiderEW.com recently put together a very compelling photo gallery entitled “20 Worst Comic-Book Movies Ever“, and looking through their list of failed super hero flicks, I can’t say I disagree with them one bit.

Their list, topped by Nic Cage’s “Ghost Rider” was comprised of films dating back to the late 1960s through to last year, and includes comic greats such as Superman, Batman and the Fantastic Four, but for the most part, they failed to get anywhere near to their full potential.

Just looking through the list really makes me wonder how anyone was able to get these films released. And maybe even more than that, why some of the amazing actors and actresses that were in them agreed to play the roles. 

Here’s the list, I hope you get as much enjoyment out of it as I did:

  1. Ghost Rider (2007)
  2. The Shadow (1994)
  3. Barb Wire (1996)
  4. Catwoman (2004)
  5. Brenda Starr (1992)
  6. The Phantom (1996)
  7. Daredevil (2003) / Elektra (2005)
  8. Tank Girl (1995)
  9. Fantastic Four (2005)
  10. Sheena (1984)
  11. The Punisher (2004)
  12. Supergirl (1984)
  13. Barbarella (1968)
  14. Howard The Duck (1986)
  15. Steel (1997)
  16. Swamp Thing (1982)
  17. Batman & Robin (1997)
  18. The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003)
  19. Superman IV: Quest For Peace (1987)
  20. Judge Dredd (1995)
