Have you ever been to a movie so terrible that you saw people leaving the theater? Which one was it?

It wasn't me, but Pan's Labyrinth had quite the exodus of parents with their younger kids when someone was beaten with a bottle and shot to death very early on.
Good Idea... But... Why the holy hell would you even think for a moment that it's a child friendly movie? Ugh.
I probably would've thought the same if a friend didn't regale us with the descriptive introduction to the torture scene.
Oh God, the Kangaroo Jack one was so egregious. I remember us renting that movie as a family and definitely feeling cheated that it's a fairly mundane comedy movie, no animated talking and singing kangaroos except for that single scene.
Luckily I was quickly warned that Bridge of Terabithia, while being marketed as a Chronicles of Narnia ripoff, was actually kinda sad. I think it helped that it's based off a book so more people were familiar with the source material.
I had to read the book in maybe 5th grade or thereabouts... Main character dying messed me up a bit... I remember this overwhelming feeling of unfairness...
Definitly was marketed as a familly movie in Canada. I do remember kids crying in the theatre and parents leaving. It's Del Torro's best movie IMO.
Hell yeah I love that movie. Fuck them kids
Was that the one with or without David Bowie?
You're thinking of “Labyrinth”. Which is still a masterpiece of eccentric fantasy.
Without!
Yeah. That was interesting that time I watched it high waiting for Bowie to show up…
