It's no secret that game-to-movie adaptations aren't the most successful bunch of movies in Hollywood. In fact, most of them range from mediocre to sucking terribly. So which are the worst game based movies out there? Here are Screwattack's picks ...

    This was great, I love the thumbs up Uwe Bol image that appears when his films came up in the list. Classic stuff.

    Uwe Boll's films could have filled out the entire list in opinion. I agree with just about everything on the list.

    WooHoo! Finally I don't feel alone in remembering the movie Super Mario Bros! After all the times bad game-movies were mentioned, I felt like no one knew what I was talking about when I mentioned SMB!

    Ok, Street Fighter 1, Both Mortal Kombats, RE(all of them) I have to say despite their opinions, I found those movies enjoyable. And ok sure Mario movie wasn't like the game, but I grew up with that movie.

    Its kinda funny how Silent Hill movie wasn't on the list, or are you suggesting that one was beyond good?

    In my opinion people try to rate these movies to be similar to the games, which I don't see how that works well. Lets look at how Bourne game did? Yea not much considering the fact it wasn't based off the movie.

    90% of those movies I saw at one point, I didn't particularly think it was that bad, I enjoyed watching them. But then Im not looking for the movie to be similar to the game, cause it just doesn't work most of the time.

    Man! Why does everyone hate the Super Mario Bros. movie so much? I've seen it a million times and I still love it. It might not be very Mario-ish, but I loved everything about it.

      Well with me, It's not so much that I didn't like the SMB movie, but even being somewhat young, I figured it was kinda corny and hilarious in that manner. I watched it quite a few times, but always knew it was corny lol

        I liked it too, though I know it was bad. xD Same with Double Dragon, thought it was entertaining, but overall, like the other titles mentioned on this list, just didn't live up to the games.

        They bashed Doom's first-person view? I thought that was kick-ass.

          Haha, I remember watching Double Dragon, but I can't remember the movie itself entirely. I remember I liked it a little though, and wasn't there a cartoon too?

          The Doom movie I only recently even knew it existed! I didn't get to watch the whole thing (maybe only 15 minutes of it total), so I can't say much about that one. The first person view was different for a movie to say the least

          Yes there was a cartoon show of double dragon which I also loved.

          Why they hating on doom, I loved doom and the FPV.
