I've always liked train wreck, although it's a bit overused these days. Very descriptive, though.

It always reminds me of a very old National Lampoon IQ test parody. One of the questions read something like:

"The smoldering mass of twisted metal bore mute testimony to the fact that the _______ was ________.

a. vibrabed : defective
b. brakeman : Polish"

I don't remember the other choices...
