Turkish Star Wars: Complete, Subtitled
Officially titled, "The Man Who Saved the Word", this Turkish-made film is commonly known as "Turkish Star Wars" because of its notorious bootlegging of Star Wars film clips worked into the film.
Released in 1982, Dünyayı Kurtaran Adam was created in Turkey caught in the midst of massive political upheaval.
As a result, American-made films were not easily acquired and were often remade with a Turkish cast and setting.
The musical soundtrack is entirely lifted from Western film hits of the time, primarily using Raiders of the Lost Ark.
There are also scenes incorporating the music of Moonraker, Flash Gordon, Battlestar Galactica, Planet of the Apes and Disney's The Black Hole.
Films considered the worst ever

You made it to 10? I'm impressed. I didn't make it past 5, and that was only because my computer froze on the screen that it was playing on.
