Скачать или смотреть February 1987 Worst Box Office Bombs (11 Flops In A Row)

February 1987. Eleven films released back to back to back, and not one of them turned a profit. We're talking about some of the biggest names in the business — Sylvester Stallone, Michael J. Fox, Anthony Hopkins, Robert Altman, Joan Jett — all stumbling into the same disastrous month while Platoon dominated every screen in America.

Light of Day paired Michael J. Fox with Joan Jett and a Bruce Springsteen title song, but the behind the scenes story of how that song came to exist is wilder than the movie itself.

Dead of Winter quietly ended the career of a director who changed American cinema forever.

From the Hip flopped hard, but it secretly launched one of the most successful TV careers in history.

The Good Father featured a performance critics still rave about — and almost nobody in America ever saw it.

84 Charing Cross Road won a BAFTA and played on fewer screens than most local plays.

Over the Top paid Stallone the highest salary in movie history at the time, and the paycheck was worth more than the entire domestic gross.

Morgan Stewart's Coming Home was so troubled that both directors removed their names from it.

Square Dance assembled an incredible cast including a young Winona Ryder and recovered just 5.6% of its budget.

Beyond Therapy represents one of the lowest points for a legendary filmmaker. And

Number One with a Bullet made a casting decision that looks absolutely catastrophic in hindsight.

From record breaking salaries to careers that never recovered, from Cannon Films burning through cash to a future Oscar winner getting rejected for lacking "star power," February 1987 is a masterclass in how Hollywood gets it wrong.
