Freddy Got Fingered definitely. If "so bad it's good" stuff counts as well, then Plan 9 from Outer Space and The Room.

Each of the following are on my "Greatest Films" list:
Pretty much universally panned:
Zardoz - John Boorman (1972)
Southland Tales - Richard Kelly (2003)
Very mixed/divisive:
Natural Born Killers - Oliver Stone (1994) [Director's Cut, 123 minutes]
Strange Days - Kathryn Bigelow (1995)
Antichrist - Lars Von Trier (2009)

I don't think these are considered the worst movies ever, but the general consensus is these aren't good movies:
X-Men: The Last Stand
Bee Movie
Charlie and The Chocolate Factory
Divisive Movies:
The Cable Guy
The Dark Knight Rises
Napoleon Dynamite
Cars

I guess disaster movie wouldn't be one that i actually thought was good.
so maybe that one doesn't belong on my list. it's there probably just because I like that spoof genre and i like disaster movie spoofs.
And I love Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

I didn't know zardoz was by John Boorman. Exorcist 2 unfortunately is a worst movie ever that I have to agree with. It sucks. I don't like that one, except for the awesome scenes in Africa with the locusts. That part was awesome. But you know what I do like by John Boorman? Deliverance and Hope and Glory. those are really really decent movies.

Agreed.
Deliverance and Point Blank are probably Boorman's most critically acclaimed films, which would be a consensus I agree with. Though I would include Zardoz as among his 3 best works. Zardoz can be quite amazing if one realizes that it's aware of its own non-sensical theories and concepts. Infact, it is profound about muddled profundity. In other words, it keeps going further and further in depth and detail and elaborating about non-sensical, absurd "profound" ideas (that are each satirical twists on various philosophic/existential ideas and the state/direction of humanity), to the point that it becomes a profound stream-of-consciousness of "anti-profundity". Actually, a bit like a cinematic version of The Residents (such as Meet the Residents), or Frank Zappa.

Great film, I can see why it's divisive though. I don't think it's very clever at all, but I enjoy it anyway.

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is far superior, but the Tim Burton film is still decent, I don't get why anyone would hate it.
The Dark Knight Rises is #64 on the IMDb top 250, and has 87% approval on Rotten Tomatoes. So I think it's clear which side is winning. I actually like it but it's still quite overrated.
