- CADDYSHACK (1980) Like many comedies of its era, “Caddyshack” is rude, crude, and proud of it. It’s scant plot is little more than a shoestring to hang various jokes on, plus a few nude scenes with the vixenish Cindy Morgan.

While the dynamic duo of Burt Reynolds and Chevy Chase previously worked together in 2011, as we'll see in the last entry on this list, the major difference between the two is in quality, with The Last Movie Starmarking one of Chase's most recent well-received films. From writer/director Adam Rifkin, the film tells the story of Vic Edwards (Reynold...
As you'll notice, 2006 was an extremely unforgiving year for Chase's floundering movie career. The run of bad luck began with the animated film Zoom, in which an ex-superhero sets out to empower a bevy of teenagers with similar superhuman skills. Tim Allen stars as Captain Zoom, a disgraced former superhero who looks to hand his responsibilities to...

In the English-language version of the Chinese 3D animated film Hedgehogs, Chase lends his voice to the role of ThinkMan.

Chase has never been cooler or more dashing than as Ty Webb in the all-time classic comedy Caddyshack, in which he shares the screen and holds his ownwith the legendary likes of Rodney Dangerfield, Bill Murray, and Ted Knight! When a private golf club is terrorized by a new rich new member, Al Czervik (Dangerfield), the snooty staff, led by Judge S...
Prior to landing a plum role on Community in 2009, Chase was slumming it pretty hard on the big screen. Exhibit B from the year 2006 belongs to Goose on the Loose, an obvious paycheck performance requiring very little effort from the one-time comedic titan. Chase plays sinister school principal Congreve Maddox in the film, who steals a talking pet ...
In what his certainly the most iconic role of his career, Chase was afforded the chance to play the bumbling nitwit Clark Griswold over the course of five films. Do you think they'll ever be a sixth?

With an even lower 23/100 Metascore, the loveless dog of a movie known as Doogalis nothing short of an embarrassment for all involved. This includes Chase, who notches his third film in 2006 among his bottom five worst of his career. Woof!

It's a bit of a surprise to see Christmas Vacationoutrank the original, according to IMDb. Then again, with John Hughes responsible for the screenplay, it isn't that much of a reach, is it?

Just when Chase thought his film career couldn't sink any lower than Doogal, he dug himself even deeper with the offensive Not Another Not Another Moviefive years later. Why, oh, why?!
