The Worst Rock Movies Ever Made ... (So Far)

Sometimes, when music meets celluloid, we get This Is Spinal Tap or DiG!. Most of the time, we don’t.

           

9. Woodstock (1970)
Those damn hippies, with their knotty hair, mud-caked fingernails and cheapo documentaries shot for around $600,000 that somehow grossed $50 million at the box office. Forget all the “it’s all about the viiiiiibe, man” bleats. Forty years after the fact, few of the performances dazzle; for every Hendrix, there are three Sha Na Nas. Really, there were just as many memorable sets at the musical shma-shmortion that was last summer’s Live Earth. As for Woodstock’s cultural significance, well, even the most heralded rock concert is still a rock concert. Overrated.
