When a year draws to a close, Hollywood types hold their collective breath and wait to see which of their brethren remain in the running for the coveted Oscar, that career-changing honor that has rendered many an average actor-director-producer professionally bulletproof.

Honoring the best of the best is one of Tinseltown’s most sacred traditions. Studios politic shamelessly to make sure their works stay firmly in the eye of the Academy’s voters.

But what of the year’s true stinkers? Sure, the Razzies make certain that the real bombs of the previous year don’t slink too far away from the headlines, but why wait?

Moviefone already has identified its 10 Worst Movies of 2008. Here are the films deemed the worst of the worst:

10. Meet Dave
