Why are the worst movies in the world all set in Venice

Insomnia is fun! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

So I've just been tortured by the worst movie in the world, maybe second worst. Hard to tell. They are both ridiculous "thrillers" set in Venice starring very distinguished actors. The plots blow, the direction sucks, the dialog is stifled and horrid, and there is always some stupid supernatural element and lots of soft focus love scenes.

So the movie tonight was Night Train To Venice with Hugh Grant and Malcolm fricken McDowell. Something about neonazis and dead wives and cross dressers singing Ma Vie En Rose.

I have no idea what the point of this movie was.

The previous most sucky movie in history is Don't Look Now with Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie. We spent the whole movie going "Don't look now- it really is that bad". I'm pretty sure the entire movie was made so that Sutherland could get a free vacation to Venice and spend a few days rolling around naked with Julie Christie. In the end, a homicidal dwarf did it. No one knows why.

There ya go peeps. News you can use.
