Had the potential to be a tense drama, but was too bland and superficial. Some cute guys, though.

This time, horror comes fron the other side.

Could have been good, but was too Americanized. Stunning visuals, though.

Less than mediocre French Paranormal Activity/The Exorcist knock-off/clone.

Director: Julius Avery | Stars: Jovan Adepo, Wyatt Russell, Mathilde Ollivier, Pilou Asbæk
Votes: 106,587 | Gross: $21.70M
Sweet Mother of Hades, what a boring mess. I know it's a Hollywood movie, but the picture was too "clean" to make you feel you were in a war. And, of course, there had to be a lady and a kid involved. And why the hell does a WWII movie end with a fu**ing rap song over the end credits??
13. The Silence (II) (2019)
PG-13 | 90 min | Drama, Horror, Sci-Fi

Director: John R. Leonetti | Stars: Stanley Tucci, Kiernan Shipka, Miranda Otto, Kate Trotter
Votes: 50,854
Started out okay-ish, but quickly became a slog with only a few minutes of good stuff. Would have worked better as a 60-minutes movie, and Kiernan Shipka is as bland as ever.
14. Pet Sematary (2019)
R | 100 min | Horror, Mystery, Thriller

Directors: Kevin Kölsch, Dennis Widmyer | Stars: Jason Clarke, Amy Seimetz, John Lithgow, Jeté Laurence
Votes: 98,579 | Gross: $54.72M
Unbelievably bad. Gone is the tension and the emotion. They call it a "re-imagining", but a lot of the scenes are almost exactly lifted from the 1989 version, and the changes they made to the story did no good.
15. Dead of Night (1974)
PG | 88 min | Drama, Horror, Thriller
A young soldier killed in the Vietnam War inexplicably shows up at his family home on the night of his death.
Director: Bob Clark | Stars: John Marley, Lynn Carlin, Richard Backus, Henderson Forsythe

Director: Josh Trank | Stars: Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan, Jamie Bell
Votes: 176,643 | Gross: $56.12M
I liked the body horror aspect, but other than that it was extremely bland.

Director: Justin Snyder | Stars: Justin Snyder, Caroline Weinroth, Rachael Lubarsky, Candice 'CJ' Johnson

Nonsensical plot and not one likeable character.
20. Madman (1981)
R | 88 min | Horror, Thriller
A legendary psychopathic murderer stalks a summer camp.
Director: Joe Giannone | Stars: Gaylen Ross, Tony Nunziata, Harriet Bass, Seth Jones
Votes: 6,744
Dodgy editing, dodgier logic, bad acting, dialogue and dubbing, stupid decisions, a "love-scene" that went on for too long all the while a cheesy-ass song played, scenes that are waaaaay too drawn out, and I don't know why the Madman had to look and sound like a yeti. On the plus-side, it had a fun opening around a campfire and it had one effective jumpscare I didn't see coming. I got the feeling that it was rewritten from a Friday the 13th script that was rejected for being too stupid.
21. The Terror (2018–2025)
TV-14 | 60 min | Adventure, Drama, Horror
Supernatural, semihistorical, horror anthology series, where each season is inspired by a different infamous or mysterious real life historical tragedy.
Stars: Jared Harris, Derek Mio, Tobias Menzies, Kiki Sukezane
Votes: 51,415
The first two or three episodes were promising but then it became a real slog to get through. Well-made and with good acting, but slowly and weirdly paced.

Not good, but I didn't expect it to be.

Director: Michael Gracey | Stars: Hugh Jackman, Michelle Williams, Zac Efron, Zendaya
Votes: 311,681 | Gross: $174.34M
Quite boring, actually, too nice, too easy. And I was distracted by the songs, because so many of them were too modern for the time it's set in. Michelle Williams, Zendaya, and Rebecca Ferguson deserve so much better.
28. 21 Days (I) (2014)
TV-MA | 89 min | Horror, Thriller

Stars: Victoire Du Bois, Lucie Boujenah, Tiphaine Daviot, Ralph Amoussou
Votes: 18,591
I don't understand all the raving reviews, despite being only 8 episodes, with 3 of them clocking in under 40 minutes, it still dragged. Sometimes it seemed like it wanted to be comedy rather than horror. Also, if they had dropped the unnecessary romantic subplots and all the flashbacks, they could have made it at least one episode shorter.
30. Cult of Chucky (2017)
R | 91 min | Horror, Thriller
Chucky returns to terrorize his human victim, Nica. Meanwhile, the killer doll has some scores to settle with his old enemies, with the help of his former wife.

Votes: 29,783
Don Mancini should just have stopped after the first one.

Directors: Garth Jennings, Christophe Lourdelet | Stars: Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Seth MacFarlane, Scarlett Johansson
Votes: 191,321 | Gross: $270.40M
Very few funny scenes, generally it was just plain boring.
32. P.O.V (2014)
84 min | Horror
If you could see what I see.
Director: Richard Anthony Dunford | Stars: Tom Clear, Karl Kennedy-Williams, Tuula Costelloe, Lewis Saunderson
Votes: 362
Filled to the brim with annoying characters, bad acting, and bad production "values". It's only 84 minutes long, but it takes 45 minutes for ANYTHING at all to happen, but it's crappy and boring and stupid.
33. C.H.U.D. (1984)

R | 87 min | Drama, Horror
Two brothers team-up to battle a creature under the bed.
Director: Steven C. Miller | Stars: Jonny Weston, Gattlin Griffith, Peter Holden, Musetta Vander

Nonsensical. The lead character was cute, though, so an extra star for that.
35. The Pool (2014)
