  and I hope I've misspelled her name too

  where did she come from? i remember her in one of the Dirty Harry flics...

  I litterally can't stand the sight of her...and won't watch anything she's in or might appear in...

  the horror!

  what is there some kind of lesbian mafia that forces hollywood to employ her?

    That's the spirit! Actresses whose appearance and/or "craft" is so reprehensible they can instantly kill a movie for me. They offend my sensibilities on so many levels. As for Tine Dayley (I'll misspell her name, too; she should only fork off) she's the daughter of James Daly an actor who played a doctor in a TV series with Chad Everett. I can't recall the name of the show. She's an amorphous blob and I run from the room at top speed.

        let me clear up the confusion:

        the definition of "can't act and never will" is Bo Derick. That's not a sin, everybody knows it, including her, so she doesn't even try.

        and even though Bo is not my type--she may be unattractive in that cold, weird way Ursula Undress (the whore from before) was, and far from sexy...but she's not ugly...

        TD clearly works at her incompetence, but it's her natural gift that sends me screaming out of the room--that nagging voice is bad enough, but the quintessential evil of the Meddusa is what tortures me...

        why oh God, why me?

        the world is full of ugly people, some of them quite beautiful, compeling even

        but this?

        the horror!

        the horror!

        I wasn't implying she can't act or sing entirely...just that no one deserves to charge $1k for front row seats to their concert. Perhaps if the price included a two-night stay at the Townsend Hotel right next to Bab's room along with backstage passes....well...maybe it's worth it. But for $1k front row seats and $100 nose-bleed seats, I think it's absurd and deserving to be on this list - even if she can act. ;-)

        I guess my main point is that she's overrated, IMHO.

  4. Elvira
  5. Madonna

  7. Whoever the hell plays the mom on The Parkers
  8. Elizabeth Taylor (the most overrated actress of all-time)
  9. Melanie Griffith (I liked her in Working Girl but everything else she's done is incredibly annoying.)

    see her promise in "National Velvet" and the full flower of her brilliance in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf".

    Her acting with Richard Burton in "Woolf" is so good I'm not even sure that it's acting.

    She's had lots of very bad roles with horrible scripts and direction, but you can't deny that she's one of the all-time best.

    rent Virginia Woolf and tell me again that you think she's no good.

    scares the shit out of me!

    if you don't get goosebumps watching her work that character, you can't be human.

      She's made a few good films. I think she was really good in CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF, which, except for VIRGINIA WOLFE is the last decent movie she's made. She started out fine and slowly devolved into a pathetic cliche.

      She is worth about 40 bazillion Pam Anderson's, however. And yes, I know that is damning her with faint praise.

      I totally agree. WAOVW is a stunning, inspired film and the tension between Taylor and Burton is still palpable even after 35 years. It's as if Albee wrote the play with them in mind and I can't picture any other actors in those roles. I ran it last week and it blows me away every time. A masterpiece. She also had capital knockers in "Butterfield 8".

  Demi Moore--Attack of the Implants. Glad to hear that Bruce has moved up and is now dating Alisha Klass, the porno queen of anal G-spot sex.

  Kim Basinger--seems to always be uncomfortable and hesitant on camera; still can't figure out how she got that Oscar.

  The Arquette Sisters--take your pick.

  Melanie Griffith--last year's retrospective of her work at the Cannes Film Festival was awfully thin.

  Catherine Zeta-Jones--so beautiful I almost don't notice that she's about as expressive as a ball peen hammer.

  Famke Janssen--ditto.

  Fairuza Baulk--my favorite skank.

  Milla Jovovich--better as a musician.

  Rebecca Pidgeon--ditto.

  Denise Richards--awful, but better than Pidgeon.

  Shannen Doherty--her bilaterally asymmetric face drives me nuts.

  Janine Turner (TV's Northern Exposure, "Cliffhanger")--just plain embarassing.
