Time to take out the trash.
My last couple posts have been kind of negative. So, I thought I'd compound the negativity with a list of some of the worst elements in the horror movie genre.
Film School Rejects has a great list of the worst horror movie remakes of all time. Not surprisingly, Psycho (1998) starring Vince Vaughn and Anne Heche ranks number one.
BloodyDisgusting.com has some great "worst of" lists including "The 10 Stupidest Motives In Slasher Movie History". Urban Legend: The Final Cut (2000) tops the list. The killer's motive? Oh, his script was passed over.... causing him to erupt into a murderous rampage twenty years later.
The lowest rated horror movie on IMDb is Demonsoul (1995). I've never seen it, and have no plans to. (By the way, the highest rated on IMDb is Psycho)
Karate Party has a list of the 100 worst names for horror movies. The list includes Aerobicide (1986) and The Carpet of Horror (1962). However, I didn't notice Lucio Fulci's Don't Torture a Duckling on there.
The Incredibly Strange Creature: Or Why I stopped Living and Became a Mixed-up Zombie made the top of the list for Retrocrush's worst movie titles.
According to Best-Horror-Movies.com, the worst horror movie ever made is called Robot Monster (1953). Click here for their top 5 list.
The film is a double loser since the costume (a gorilla suit and diving helmet) has also made lists for being the worst monster costume ever.
Entertainment Weekly has a list of 15 nominees for the worst movie dialogue ever. Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (1992) made the list with this:
THE SCENE: Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee) tearfully breaks up with her boyfriend and heads to her death.
THE LINE: ''I'm gone, like a turkey in the corn. Gobble gobble!''
The worst music in horror movie history would HAVE to be Peter Carpenter doing an awful Tom Jones in Point of Terror (1971). Although, it kind of grows on you in a groovy psychedelic kind of way. I beseech you to watch this clip - it has to be seen to be believed.
The worst horror movie adaptation would be I Am Legend (2007). The movie didn't follow the wonderful Matheson novel at all. Lame and boring from beginning to end.
The worst DVD cover of all time has to be Happy Birthday to Me. They took a great movie poster and VHS cover, featuring the iconic shish-kebab impalement, and replaced it with Photoshop lameness.
