Kurt Russell film named worst ever

Published Friday, Mar 9 2007, 10:10 GMT | By Dave West
Kurt Russell movie Big Trouble in Little China has been named the worst of all time.

The kung fu film, made in 1986, came top, while raunchy comedy Porky was second and Showgirls placed third.

The list, put together by US magazine Maxin, also named Best of the Best, the 1989 action flick, among the worst productions ever.

However, David Edwards, film critic for the Daily Mirror, said many leading candidates escaped the list.

"Big Trouble in Little China is a bad film - but it's a long way from being the very worst," he commented. "Where on the list are crimes against cinema like Glitter, Basic Instinct 2, Pluto Nash or every movie Madonna has been in?

"My vote for worst movie ever made goes to the sci-fi film Battlefield Earth."

The top 10 in full:

1. Big Trouble in Little China
2. Porky's
3. Showgirls
4. Dolemite
5. Dead Alive
6. Billy Madison
7. The Island of Dr Moreau
8. Commando
8=. Missing in Action
10. Best of the Best
