This is probably the most correct term, though "rag" in its negative connotation always works well.

trash magazine


Explanation:
Fille kan oversettes til "rag", og det er jo litt fristende å foreslå "rag magazine" eller "trash rag magazine", men nå er det jo slik at dette ofte henspeiler på sladreblad mens man med filleblad her antakelig bare ganske enkelt mener at bladet er elendig. Så jeg foreslår "trash magazine" for å være mer på den trygge siden.
