Oh The Horror: In honor of ‘The Bye Bye Man’, here are the worst-named films in movie history

Two movies with some of the stupidest titles ever are hitting theaters this month: Horror flick The Bye Bye Man, which lands today for Friday the 13th, and Vin Diesel’s bicep-showcase xXx: The Return of Xander Cage, which hits next week. The former is one of the worst titles for a horror movie we’ve come across in the past 10 years, inspiring hearty laughter in the theaters in which the previewed screened and some pretty great parodies, while the xXx sequel sounds like less of a spy movie and more like something you’d find on a crusty rack behind the velvet curtain at the video store.

So, we got to thinking: What are some of the worst movie titles we’ve ever come across?

Find out more after the jump.

Leonard Part 6

This “comedy” starring alleged rapist Bill Cosby gets progressively less funny as the years go on. That’s saying something, considering that Leonard Part 6 was already one of the worst received comedies in film history, as Cosby and company tried to wring humor from the misadventures of a former CIA agent, now restaurateur, who is dragged back into the business by a potentially world-ending threat. The title is only one part of why this movie failed, but it says a lot about the thought that went into this movie: Leonard Parts 1-5 were classified, so we’re only seeing the declassified Part 6. Perhaps the screenwriter didn’t realize that the episode numbers were added after the fact to the original Star Wars trilogy. Either way, it’s the worst title on one of the worst movies of all time.
