What Movies Have You Walked Out Of?
.jpg)
It takes a lot for me to have to walk out of a movie. I mean it has to pretty gosh darn awful for me to want to leave. Have you ever seen anything so bad that it couldn't be alleviated by multiple trips to the concession stand? Let me know!
The Little Mermaid
Ok, so this is TOTALLY embarassing, but when I went to go see “The Little Mermaid” in the movie theater I got scared and I made my mom take me home. A crazy witch octopus can be a very scary thing for a 5 year-old.
The Royal Tenenbaums
I love this movie. So why is it on here? Well, when I went to go see it in the theater I got massive stomach cramps and I had to run out of the movie theater. I made it home just in time to throw up in the bathroom. I went back and saw the movie another day, but it kinda sucked I never got my money back. I guess I should just be happy that I wasn’t on a date at the time.
BAMBI
this was my exact quote, coming from little Chelsea, “There’s too many sad people in there……”
Pretty sure this was when Bambi’s mom died, which was tragic. Too tragic for little minds.
Oooouuch
The part where E.T. is all gray and white? On ice? And the military men are working on him? I screamed at my parents “You promised me that he wouldn’t DIE!” and then stomped out of the theater. They later told me that they figured since I was 30 years old, I would have heard the storyline already.
The Crow: City of Angels
Loved the original Crow film, starring Brandon Lee. This one took way more liberties with the violence and sex, and ultimately wasn’t nearly as good. So, why walk out? Try seeing it at 13 years old while sitting next to parents… dear God, I still get chills thinking about it.
Black Hawk Down
I walked out on my date on this one, and I think it was the movie that caused me to swear off “big-budget” films forever.
I haven’t been to a “real” theater in about 8 years.
Quarantine
I didn’t realize (well duh to me!) that the entire film is shot as if the audience is looking through a video camera. Motion Sickness? Bad. Storyline? Even bad-der!
The Rocketeer
I was 8 and went to see The Rocketeer with my friend and her mom. Her mom made us leave. I think they said a swear, but I never really figured out exactly why she wouldn’t let us keep watching. I remember being embarrassed because she yelled at the ticket people and demanded our money back. The movie was boring to my 8 year old girly self anyway. But come on, it’s Disney!

King Kong (2005 downgrade)
I never even got to see Kong enter the screen, the script, acting, and camera work were THAT bad. I straight up ditched friends over this one.
Stop! or My Mom Will Shoot
My bad for even going to this in the first place. What did I expect?
House of 1000 Corpses
It was too late when I realized that I could have gotten my money back.
Full Frontal
I’m a fan of Steven Soderbergh. That being said, the man must have been suffering from a massive head injury when he made this movie. It is seriously awful.
Dancer in the Dark
I love Bjork, so I was definitely excited to see this movie, but my excitement wore off pretty fast. I know Von Trier can be a little off putting, but this was just too much for me.
The Incredible Hulk (2003)
Much like The Little Mermaid story, I walked out on this one because my 6 year old stepson flipped shit when the giant dogs showed up in the movie.
Stevie
It was like a bad episode of Dateline.
Beyond cheesy and boring. We had to get out of there.
Fear Dot Com
Worst. Movie. Ever.
I was six and couldn’t wait to see this movie. I got sick 20 minutes in and my babysitter took me home. I felt like I had done something wrong since we paid to get in and then had to leave.
Armageddon
Oh no, wait, it was this one.
I would walk out on the soundtrack, too, if I could.
30 Days of Night
I lasted all of one day of night or ten minutes. I was with my non-scaredy friend Samantha. I freaked out and crawled on all fours to get out of the theater after screaming my head off. I am a grown woman, I got punk’d and ran to ask for my money back. Hers too.
Good for about 20 minutes. then great for a $20 two hour nap. Awful movie.
Bewitched
This movie was so awful and made me so angry that I still break out in rage-sweats when I think about it. I was too embarrassed to demand my money back.
