Here's a list of a few of my favorite actors and their worst accents:

Jack Benny's english accent in CHARLEY'S AUNT

Sterling Hayden's swedish accent in TERROR IN A TEXAS TOWN

Humphrey Bogart as a mexican (!) in VIRGINIA CITY

James Cagney's southern accent in A LION IS IN THE STREETS

I know it's a tv show rather than a movie, but there's got to be room for Kyra Sedgewick's southern accent on "The Closer". Thenk yew.

Hands down, Jean Claude van Damme playing a Cajun in HARD TARGET (was that the title?). I guess someone figured that Belgian, Cajun, whatever, a one French accent is the same as another.

Dick Van Dyke's winning personality almost makes up for it, but his Cockney accent in 'Mary Poppins' is really bad (although I never noticed that as a kid).
