Lets not forget the infamous "Coyote Ugly"!

Esta expresión está sobre despertar al lado de una mujer que encontraste en una bar la noche antes. A la mañana siguiente te despiertas. Ella está durmiendo en tu brazo. Ella es tan feo que eliges a masticar tu brazo fuera de lugar de despertarla.

This expression is about waking up next to a woman you met in a bar the night before. The next morning you wake up. She is sleeping on your arm. She is so ugly you choose to chew your arm off rather than wake her.!

¡A mí no, tengo ambos brazos! ¡Aye...Que feo Mateo!

The only ones I have heard are what Luz said, "Ugly as sin," and what Ian said, " A face only a mother could love."
