Looking for examples of well shot, but horrible movies.

Prometheus is a good example. Beautifully shot, excellent cast, amazing effects...TERRIBLE MOVIE. I tried rewatching it, and am just in awe of horribly written it is. Theres a new plot hole introduced almost every time someone speaks.

An old girlfriend of mine used to watch a lot of Christian themed "feel good" family films that I'll never remember the names of and most people have probably never heard of. They were awful dogshit but I swear that industry must have some of the best cinematographers working for it. Beautifully shot movies with cliche characters and safe, predictable storylines.
