1. Carrie (1988)
Source: wikipedia.org
Perhaps the par for the course of all flops, Carrie attempted to resurrect the popularity of the 1976 film about a girl with telekinetic powers and an overzealously religious mother. Broadway diva Barbara Cooke played Carrie’s mother, but she left the show after a disastrous run in England. Even when she was replaced by Cats star Betty Buckley, the show closed quickly and lost a whopping $8 million.
