THE SILENT PARTNER was a good choice. 👍
Speaking of 1970s Canada . . . how 'bout RABID (1977)?

@37kitties: Don't forget about . . . 🍓🍓 THE STRAWBERRY STATEMENT (1970). More campus unrest!

GETTING STRAIGHT is mentioned above so how about another 'campus-themed' movie?
R.P.M. (1970) Anthony Quinn stars.

I've never seen BILLY THE KID VS. DRACULA, Dargo! Believe it or not! Usually I'll watch lots of bad movies for fun, but I simply haven't yet got round to BILLY VS. DRAC.
To date, the worst John Carradine movie I've seen is EVILS OF THE NIGHT (1985). Filmed in 1983 with a good cast + a couple of porn stars (Jerry Butler and Amber Lynn) tossed in for good measure. Neville Brand, Aldo Ray, Tina Louise and Julie Newmar join John Carradine and a cast of young victims and wanna-be victims of bloodthirsty aliens who hire a couple of garage mechanics (Brand and Ray) to supply them with nubile young folks so they can harvest their blood. 🩸 🩸 👽👽
BILLY THE KID VS. DRACULA could well be worse than EVILS OF THE NIGHT, but "Evils" is pretty dire even by the seriously low-grade standards of 1980s filmmaking -- remember all those shot-on-video movies that began to proliferate on the home video market beginning in 1985? EVILS OF THE NIGHT was shot on film and is /barely/ better than those atrocious pieces of SOV garbage like "Nail Gun Massacre".

ROBERT TAYLOR (1911-69).
Great Movie: WATERLOO BRIDGE (1940) with Vivien Leigh. 👍
Bad Movie: MIRACLE OF THE WHITE STALLIONS (1963) with a good cast wasted. An un-involving, disjointed mess. This is the kind of movie that's sold by Disney as part of a "package" of films because no one in their right mind would *ask* for it. At least the horses are nice . . .

A Thought: Could THE YAKUZA possibly be worse than the 1978 boxing-kangaroo movie featuring Mitchum titled MATILDA? 🙃

CRUISING (1980) had a 39-year-old Al Pacino playing a naive 28-year-old policeman. Highly unconvincing. Stick with Al in "Serpico".

HENRY FONDA at his best in "Fort Apache" and "Mister Roberts" . . . but do yourself a favor and don't watch TENTACLES. → Despite the fact "Tentacles" boasts a good cast, including Henry, it's AWFUL!

It's easier to pick 'BEST' and 'WORST' when you have an actor and actress who weren't in very many films! Try picking JOHN CARRADINE's worst and your head will explode.

In regards to Alfred Hitchcock I dig THE 39 STEPS (1935) and, of the Hitchcock films I've seen I find his worst THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH (1956). I can watch JAMAICA INN and enjoy it well enough . . . but it's tough sledding with the '56 remake of the '34 original for a myriad of reasons. It's un-necessarily long and drags at Albert Hall, it contains that infernal song, the kid isn't very interesting -- I didn't even care if he was rescued or not + I can't help but think of the 1934 version with its tidy 75-minute run time as this version goes on . . . and on . . . and on. Still an ok movie, but no great shakes from Sir Alfred. If given the choice of which version to watch I'd pick the '34 every time.

Well, shucks, NipkowDisc . . . if you'd like to see ALL of Marta Kristen then check out the sleazy little Matt Cimber movie from 1974 called THE GEMINI AFFAIR. Marta has a hot luv scene with Kathy Kersh.

@EricJ: I think WINTER KILLS (1979) would qualify as a "'70s Political Paranoid Thriller" to keep company with The Parallax View, Three Days of the Condor and The Conversation.
That could be a night of TCM Programming:
TCM Proudly Presents: A Night of Political Paranoia -- 1970s Style!
Only thing is 3 of those 4 movies are Paramount flix. Paramount movies don't seem to air as much on TCM as movies from other studios. (WINTER KILLS has been on TCM before, tho).
