While moviegoers often flock to bad movies in large numbers, professional film critics will tend to pile condemnation on those same films.

To find out which movies film critics have been collectively hated the most, we turned to the reviews aggregator Metacritic to compile this list of the most critically panned movies in history.

From ill-advised sequels like "Scary Movie 5" and "Caddyshack II," to two dubious political documentaries by conservative filmmaker Dinesh D'Souza, these films drew the ire of critics and provoked the repulsion of many.

Most recently, last year's critically panned "Haunting of Sharon Tate," starring Hilary Duff, made the list.

Here are the 75 worst movies of all time, according to critics:

Critic score:13/100

User score:1.8/10

What critics said:"Filling in for Eddie Murphy in a septically humored kiddie sequel to 'Daddy Day Care,' Gooding gives a mug-job performance that consists mainly of reacting (again and again) to nasty smells." Entertainment Weekly

Critic score:13/100

User score:N/A

What critics said:"Glacially paced, self-consciously acted and narratively risible." Variety

63. "A Beautiful Life" (2009)

Critic score:13/100

User score:1.7/10

What critics said:"This laughably clichd dive into sexual masochism and hardscrabble survival replaces story with outline and characters with place holders."The New York Times

User score:2.4/10

What critics said:"While the original was no classic, it had a few mild laughs and the plus-sized actor displayed a certain buffoonish charm. Such is not the case with this painfully unfunny, slapdash follow-up in which the title character is so relentlessly obnoxious that you'll be cheering for the villains."The Hollywood Reporter

Critic score:13/100

User score:6.4/10

What critics said:"The confusion it mistakes for true soul-searching is about as realistic a look at the politics of youthful attraction as one of those 'Did somebody say McDonald's?' commercials is a look at mainstream American family values. Did somebody say McCheese?"Austin Chronicle

Critic score:13/100

User score:N/A

What critics said:"Only a mote of humor graces the film, and that is Jason's cunning ability to come up with ever more dreadful weapons for each successive crime, graduating from stake to machete to circular saw.

Critic score:13/100

User score:4.8/10

What critics said:"A lurid, unsavory mix of 'Reefer Madness' hysteria, drive-in sleaze, and the queasy morality of '80s slasher film."The AV Club

Critic score:13/100

User score:N/A

What critics said:"Burt Reynolds and a host of notable performers seem to be having a hell of a good time wandering through this meandering, episodic farce, but rarely is their good mood shared by the viewer."TV Guide

Critic score: 13/100

What critics said:"It's stale B-movie rubbish of a barely watchable sort, albeit slightly more depressing than many of its genre compatriots."The Dissolve

54. "Strange Wilderness" (2008)

Critic score:12/100

User score:5.1/10
