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.

This 2011 film about a cult is notable for getting Elizabeth Olsen out of the shadows of her big sisters and into the arms of a loving, supportive group of critics.

We challenge every film critic worth their salt to say this movie’s title three times fast without stuttering.
