 8. John Wayne – The Conqueror (1965)

This one is pretty simple. Remember John Wayne? You know “Howdy pilgrims” and all that. Nickname was The Duke. The bloke who played a cowboy in every film he was in.

Well apparently not. In this dog shit rebranded as a motion picture he plays Genghis Khan. As in the blood-thirsty, slightly misunderstood 14th century emperor of the Mongol Empire. All they did is make sure The Duke has a bit of a tan, stick one of those Fu-Man Chu moustaches you get in a pack of three with The Hitler and YMCA biker on him and tell him to not sound like a cowboy at least 50% of the time.

The film is as shallow as a fucking baking tray.
