Check Out All The Films with a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes
These movies have a rather infamous claim to fame.
No one sets out to make a movie that doesn't get reviewed well. But it happens. Not every movie is for everyone. Sometimes, the more polarizing, the better.
Still, if no one likes it...that can mean trouble.
In the modern era, reviews mean a lot when it comes to getting a good shot at making money and helping carry word of mouth.
And sites like Rotten Tomatoes aggregate all the reviews and put them in one spot. A high score on there can really boost people seeing your movie, and a low score can hurt it.
Well, every so often, a movie comes out that no one likes, and it gets a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes. Today, I wanted to go over the list of those movies.
Let's dive in.

What Can You Learn From All This?
Make the movie you believe in. Don't sit around worrying about reviews; that stuff comes later. Everyone who made one of these movies on this list started out just believing in an idea and chasing it down.
If you get bad reviews, I have been there; you just have to get back up and make another movie you believe in.
The only other piece of advice I can give is don't shoot a movie that you don't think has a solid foundation in the scripting department.
A great script can still lead to a bad movie, but rarely. To me, having that foundation is always the best step forward.
Let me know what you think in the comments.
