SchleFaZ [ˈʃleːfat͡s] (Die schlechtesten Filme aller Zeiten) ("The worst movies of all time") is a satirical film series from the German private broadcaster Tele 5 (since 2024 NITRO). In this series, mainly B-movies, which are characterized by particularly bad workmanship or unintentionally funny ideas, are introduced, commented on and presented by Oliver Kalkofe and Peter Rütten. These films themselves are called "Schlefaze". In 2013, Kalkofe and fellow comedian Peter Rütten created and began hosting the still-running show SchleFaZ on Tele 5, which is loosely based on the format of American TV series Mystery Science Theater 3000.

In it, Kalkofe and Rütten present trash films, introduce them with various background information, after every commercial break comment on the plot so far, and in the end summarize upon it, all within a retro-styled studio decorated in reference to the current film they are commenting on.

Rütten and Kalkofe made an ironic cameo appearance in the 2015 movie Sharknado 3: Oh...
