This is a strong pick. People shitpost a lot about malevolent directors, but of course most directors aren't malevolent, they're just careless, inept or greedy. I accept no hyperbole about Michael Bay because you can't question that Michael Bay loves what he does and loves his dipshit audience.
The Dead Don't Die and pic related are two of the only films I can ever think of that were truly and unironically made out of malice; the director hated the movie and hated the audience and wanted to make something intentionally unpleasant and unwatchable as an act of contempt towards the audience. At his heart, not even Lars von Trier can truly do this, no matter how gross shit gets you can feel him delighting in it like a misbehaved child stepping on ants.
But I think you're a special kind of asshole to spend millions of dollars and months/years of your life to craft something that's literally just "Fuck you for watching this, fuck you for creating a market where this could be made."
