We published a similar list during our first Worst Film Week, so we thought it was about time to bring back the infamous list of the biggest box-office bombs of all time<\/strong>. Based on earnings (or lack thereof) compared to their cost to produce, these films are the biggest wastes of money to date. The below list is adjusted for 2008 dollars<\/em>, with the most costly<\/span> being the film that bankrupted Carolco Pictures, Cutthroat Island<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
