Any film in which the director or producer is not given due credit.
I really hate when I see a film that says "Director's Cut" and it turns out to be a Smithee

A pen name that directors use when they want to disown a movie they made. Can also be used for when someone is so ashamed of something they did.
Twilight was not directed by Alan Smithee. What a surprise.
Made-up film director name. When a movie turns out so bad the real director doesn't want his name associated with the project they may use this name instead. Sidney Lumet, Dennis Hopper and Sam Raimi have used the pseudonym respectively.
"I can't believe my movie turned out so crappy, better slap Adam Smithee on the credits or else my career's over."
