Henry Jaglom for a body of work so poorly directed, it looked like piles out outtakes glued together. His entire body of celluloid dross should be turned into guitar picks for the needy.

Don't piss on my shoe and tell me it's raining.
Director/Writer/Producer of "BloodRayne" and other videogame-based clinkers, Boll has a Ph.D. in literature that doesn't help one bit.
Buchanan may have been the least talented director in history; his work makes Ed Wood look like Kurosawa. As his obituary in the New York Times put it:
One quality united Mr. Buchanan's diverse output: It was not so much that his films were bad; they were deeply, dazzlingly, unrepentantly bad. His work called to mind a famous line from H.L. Mencken, who, describing President Harding's prose, said, "It is so bad that a sort of grandeur creeps into it."
I'm completely in awe of this guy's work. He's probably best known for Mars Needs Women although I like his completely awful Zontar, Thing from Venus better. I've seen a half - dozen of the movies that this auteur made and in all that footage there isn't one single frame that's competently composed, not one second of even passable acting or writing. If you tried to make an intentionally bad movie you couldn't succeed as well as Buchanan did in every unwatchable effort. A monkey given an Arriflex would eventually accidentally shoot a decent scene but even such random competence is completely absent from the Buchanan filmography.

Alan something. Every movie he makes is crap.
...but I also like Henry Jaglom's stuff too. Maybe I'm just wired different, but I like those spontaneous, uncomposed films because they seem more real.
And I am loyal cause Rudolph is a good friends uncle. But man those two are terrible.
Alan Smithee, Allen Smithee, Alan Smythee, and Adam Smithee are pseudonyms used between 1968 and 1999 by Hollywood film directors who wanted to be dissociated from a film for which they no longer wanted credit. It was used when the director could prove to the satisfaction of a panel of members of the Directors Guild of America (DGA) and Association of Motion Picture and Television Producers that the film had been wrested from his or her creative control. The director was also required to keep the reason for the disavowal a secret. The pseudonym could not be used to hide a director's failures......
