When it comes to crafting an entertaining and undeniably great story in the world of cinema, Quentin Tarantino is one of the first names that gets thrown around. With films like Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction and Inglourious Basterds in his repertoire, Django Unchained, the film that immediately followed the fantastic Basterds, didn’t fail to disappoint. The film paints a story of the titular Django, in his journey from becoming a slave, to a free man, to revenge. Like most of his other work, Django Unchained is endlessly rewatchable, with non-stop action and excitement filling the near 3-hour runtime. Well, except for the third act.

The entire sequence at Candieland involved the dramatic deaths of Calvin Candie, a fantastic antagonist portrayed brilliantly by Leonardo DiCaprio and also the film’s deuteragonist Dr King Schultz, the driving force behind Django, a brilliant role which netted Christoph Waltz his second Oscar. That episode ended with a bloodbath which ultimately resulted in Django’s imprisonment and subsequent escape.

Though the last half an hour of the film immediately preceding Django’s final foray into Candieland is debatably unnecessary, considering the severe change in tone, a break in the high the film led audiences on, the scene that isn’t debatably bad but rather undoubtedly so is Tarantino’s cameo.

Though that scene isn’t particularly poorly written, it is in the context of the film in terms of how detracting it is from the main plotline. Most importantly, Tarantino ruined this scene, not with writing, not with his direction (at least not behind the camera), but with his absolutely abysmal acting, with a ridiculous accent which somehow manages to be the most racist thing in a film revolving around slavery.

In all honesty, his performance makes the entire scene feel like one big shoehorn for his cameo. Which is why this scene ranks so highly on the list, it’s a scene that provides a needlessly drawn out intermission to an adrenaline rush, and it’s more infuriating considering the palpable intent behind the scene.
