7. Dogma (1999)
Two fallen angels are banished from heaven, then from Wisconsin, and decide to head to New Jersey where they discover a loophole that can see them returned to heaven but will annihilate humanity. Sounds farfetched? This longwinded elevator pitch was the premise of the 1999 film Dogma, which was directed by Kevin Smith. Few films have found themselves in the bad books for being considered too blasphemous for their own good even before they were released and Dogma is proudly one of them. The Catholic League received an early version of the script and was so outraged by the content that the group openly criticized Disney. Interestingly enough when it was sold to Lions Gate, these protests stopped.
