Sitting at 10% on Rotten Tomatoes, which makes it the worst reviewed in the series: Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan.  
As someone who owns and loves the entire Friday the 13th series I would say Jason Takes Manhattan isn't even my least favorite movie in the series.  I think the honor goes to Jason Goes to Hell that tries to explain the origin of Undead Jason as a corpse inhabited by a Satanic tapeworm that can change host and that can only be killed by The Evil Dead dagger by someone from the Vorhees blood line.   The opening scene and the ending which planted the seeds for Freddy vs. Jason are the only decent parts.
 
I'm not going to say it is the best in the series because for me that is a toss up between Part 2 and 4.  Part 2 is genuinely scary and Part 4 contains the infamous Crispin Glover dance scene.  
Jason Takes Manhattan has one of the goofiest kills of the entire series.

Probably Swordfish sitting at 26% on RT. Which I can understand why critics think it is bad but man it is oddly watchable and off kilter for a heist movie.

Teen Wolf Too at 13%, I had to buy it to get Teen Wolf on DVD, It's terrible. As for film that I purchased by itself, Harold and Kumar Escape from Gunatanamo Bay. Love it though, nearly died with laughter in the cinema.

Probably Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. I love that movie though and own three versions of it.

Speed Racer at 38%, probably. Though I will FIGHT anyone who actually thinks its a bad movie. That movie is a brilliant cult classic waiting to happen.

Freddy VS Jason 41% Tomatometer

Tango and Cash 39% Tomatometer

Both of which are two of my favorite so-bad-they're-good movies of all time. OF ALL TIME.

@litrock: I love Speed Racer.  I don't know why so many people hated it.  My guess is they weren't fans of the original show to begin with.

Probably Batman & Robin (1997) [13% on RT]. It was a gift that came in a box set including all the films from that era of Batman movies.

I don't have a very big collection, but of what I do have I guess it would be...Marlowe. Which is a movie nobody has even heard of and/or remembers anyways.

Corky Romano at 6% on Rotten Tomatoes. How it got into my possession is beyond me. I think it was a reject from the library my mom works at.

Rambo: First Blood Part II at 29%, which is crazy because Rambo 3 is obviously the crappier movie.

I've seen it. Back in high school I was very deep into mystery fiction and so I watched practically every movie made that used Raymond Chandler's work as source material. I didn't think it was bad, but I had problems differentiating James Garner as Philip Marlowe from Jim Rockford. The movie has a 67% RT rating and 6.3 on IMDB. If that's the worst thing in your collection then you're doing pretty good.

Red Sonja at 19%. A high score for such nonsense.
