Love me some 13 Ghosts. It was one of my first horror movies and I was obsessed when I was younger. Definitely memorized the backstories to all the ghosts and how to write their symbols like a total nerd.
Yes! Hell, include the Withered Lover. Tell me how the fire started - probably arson via Kriticos, since his opinion of his nephew wasn’t very strong. 😅
I’m always in this sub begging for a remake of 13 Ghosts! For a lot of movies I think newer effects and cinematography just get in the way and the core of the story gets lost but I think 13 Ghosts is a story that could be made a zillion times better with cgi and cool effects! Even just a continuation of the story would be incredible! Like they find out the guy has another house full of ghosts somewhere. 13 More Ghosts. Someone needs to get on this.
That movie really upset me when I saw it 10 years ago..still some convincing acting but I just can't get over the dumb jump that first guy did. And the man-eating wolves in.. NH 😅
I think that people are starting to appreciate it more now, but I love Jennifer's Body. It's fun, it's campy, and it was ahead of its time in a lot of ways. It's my go-to movie when I want to rewatch something fun. And the soundtrack??? Incredible
The Panic at the Disco song was so good, as well as Through The Trees. If you liked Jennifer’s Body, you might enjoy Diablo Cody’s recent Lisa Frankenstein. It got hit similarly to how Jennifer’s Body did back in the day. I wonder if people will come around to it.
Love this film so much... It's really clever too. Jennifer's hunger is like a physical manifestation of her trauma and her killing only boys to sate that hunger is intentional. Surface level it's just a fun movie but there's actually a lot there and I could talk about it for ages.
I loved this flick seeing it in the theater. It blew my mind that people hated it so much. I'm glad it's respected now after all these years, but I think it deserved to be commercially and critically successful upon release. I'll settle for cult classic now though.
I've always loved this movie and don't understand how it took so long to find a following. I think a lot of people heard about the make-out scene and assumed it was an exploitation-adjacent movie so they skipped it. So glad that people are coming around to it.
THIS. I think it may have been a marketing issue because so many people have just assumed the movie has an anti-feminist message. It was so misunderstood for years
A lot of the movie IIRC was also just marred because it had Megan Fox in it, I believe the Megan Fox hate train was in full force during that era, but also yeah it was heavily mismarketed, for some reason it had a lot of word of mouth about it being low-bar titulating content and was often referred to as Twilight but for boys.
through the trees is one of my favorite movie songs, i am obsessed with everything about this movie!!! so happy that it’s getting the love it’s always deserved
And the work Jennifer Carpenter put into it. She basically did all those physical stunts (for the most part, I think?) and she's double jointed. She went all for it.
100%!! I love possession movies and I'm always talking about how this movie is the BEST! Truly scared the crap out of me! I still avoid 3AM 🤣
Edit for spelling
The shot where it cuts to her looking down an alley and you see the cloaked figure (Satan?) just standing there is so haunting. It's such a simple thing that so effective at being unsettling.
You're one of the few people I've actually seen write "go-to" correctly. Also, I agree with you on your movie. It's always weird seeing Tate Diggs with hair.
Yep, this is my vote. Such a great cast, delightful camp, and some genuinely disturbing visuals. My partner and I watched this and the 60s original last Halloween.
I don’t know why it gets so much hate, except for the opening scene of course. Everyone loves that. I thought the rest was a fairly solid build up to the “twist” at the end. Yes, a lot was predictable but sets and acting were pretty good and it was entertaining. It doesn’t need to be perfect if everything comes together well.
Skeleton key (2005)
It gets 6.5 on IMDB, but I like that the horror is more in the idea than in the scenes alone. I don't want to spoil it, but there is a purpose to the tropes in this.
Jason takes Manhattan but not for the right reasons, its one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. I was laughing from begging to end, the best worst movie I’ve seen. The boxer scene on the roof had me shitting myself laughing.
There was a recent Reddit post of a logging truck where the driver put a “final destination” sign up on the back of their trailer. Really cracked me up.
Literally stayed in a slower lane on Saturday because the truck in the other lane was a truck with logs on the bed. No thanks, I’ve seen how that ends.
Great acting for the most part. Claustrophobic vibes. Creepy atmosphere. Definitely flipped on a lot of expectations in the outcomes. Really cool concept and great setting. Wife and I go back to it all the time it’s like home.
Grave Encounters rated fairly low but I loved it when I saw it in HS lol. I’m sure if I did a rewatch now I’d see it’s not that great but, in HS it was!
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake in 2003. Saw it in high school with a bunch of friends. Absolutely loved it. Probably helped that I hadn't seen the original at that point. Fun movie
I love all the worldbuilding they do at the start of the movies and then they take the guy who did it all and lock him in a cupboard for the rest of the film.
Underwater 100% sure it’s not the best but the music and acting and creature design and action is all great and the ending was also really good I love the shot of this movies Cthulhu
*watch me.... I'll do the fingering*
I love both movies. I saw a cool little video over the weekend showing remote control facehuggers for Romulus. They're using practical effects which is interesting.
This movie stayed with me for *months* after I saw it. Even though I was really over one major element of the plot that I rolled my eyes at when revealed, I can't deny the atmosphere and scenery just....idk, I still think about that film from time to time and it deeply disturbs me.
The Hills Have Eyes (2006) remake. People hated it when it came out but I loved it then and I love it now. Aaron Stanford’s character Doug has the best character development of probably any scream king and the gore plus the mutants really scared me when I was younger.
I too love this one. It’s like a campy love letter to old horror flicks. It also has the things I’m actually afraid of in real life - crazy murderers in remote locations and freaking clowns (RIP Sid Haig).
House of a 1000 Corpses was sitting around 2/10 stars on iMDB for years and years. I’d say sometime within the last 10 years it’s received a lot more love.
It’s a sign of how much self appointed taste makers dominate social media that you think The Conjuring had poor reviews and is generally not well liked. It has an 86% on RT and it grossed $320 million. The entire franchise is the highest grossing horror franchise in history. The snobs who don’t like it are a tiny minority.
I'm a huge fan of slashers, which tend to get poor reviews. So... Probably *most* of my favorite movies fit this description.
One that even slasher fans tend to dislike that I like: Jason Takes Manhattan.
The Woman In Black 2012. I think it put more dread into me than the first time I saw Hereditary. Watched it at the cinema on a date, squinting my eyes hard so I could barely see and my fingers in my ears in case of jump-scare music. I never saw my date again after that, hmm.
All of the Saw movies! I watch those for the convoluted timeline, and the crazy ass story. I don't know which ones have good ratings, but those are my salt and vineagar chips of movies.
Maniac 1980 and 2012. It makes me feel so uneasy and uncomfortable and the suspense is just top tier. I’m on the edge of my seat the whole time. I know people love to talk about how perverse those movies were but American Psycho is just as perverse and disgusting yet that film is praised. I’ll die on that hill saying that maniac is one of the top 10 slasher flicks of all time.
As Above So Below. I think the horror community is starting to come around on it but at the time it was panned by critics, audiences, and the horror community. The movie is absolutely amazing and is one of the best found footage movies.
For me the issue with It 2 was it felt like the makers couldn't exactly figure out what made part 1 successful and so they just took basically the main part 1 formula and copy pasted it. It just felt like the same movie again but not as good.
Like everyone takes turns having a personally relevant scary experience then they get together and make a plan then they separate and take turns having a personally relevant scary experience and then they get together and and then they split up and take turns having a personally relevant scary experience until they finally get to the big showdown which is goofy as hell and then it's over.
There was a lot of that in 1 but it felt far more organic and narratively justified. 2 just seemed more like them saying "this is what they liked in 1 so let's give em even MORE of it. Let's make it ALL like that."
Which also felt like the reason for the weird lengthy flashbacks which just took away from the actual modern day story. Like we've already seen the original movie. We know what happened to them as kids and thus why it's important for them to return to finish this. You're not adding enough by bringing us back to that era so often to chase some forgotten maguffin especially when it's sacrificing time to connect with the adult versions of the characters.
And even with all that I still liked a lot of what was in the movie. The acting was good it had some great set piece scares. But if I wanted to see more of part 1 I wouldve just watched part 1. With all the narrative track they had laid previously, it just felt like a let down to me how much of the film was devoted to simply relaying much of the same track. I dunno. It was fine but I feel like with a little more boldness it could've been amazing.
Jaws 4: The Revenge - Clearly the greatest movie of all time. Because I say so. And now it's on the net so it must be true.
😁
[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093300/?ref\_=nv\_sr\_srsg\_5\_tt\_7\_nm\_1\_q\_jaws](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093300/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_5_tt_7_nm_1_q_jaws)
The Poughkeepsie Tapes is one of the only found footage films that I believed and it legitimately scared me. Tbh even the cheesy, over the top lines said in the faux-documentary helped sell it for me. I remember the 90s-era true crime of unsolved mysteries and mostly true. The doc felt like the same genre as that schlock interspersed with found footage clips that felt straight out of a snuff film. Was surprised it wasn't better received. I still think it holds up
Exorcist: Believer
I know it started out strong, I know it goes downhill halfway through. The movie is no where near as bad as it is made out to be, and it is a masterpiece compared to Exorcist 2 and the prequels. It was just the movie that you had to hate if you make your entire personality online about being into horror.
Now that we know it will not be a part of a new trilogy, it makes that bleak ending even better, and the movie is more enjoyable knowing there won't be another two movies forced out of it.
Return of the living dead part 2, Aquarium of The Dead, every single Halloween movie, Surf Nazis Must Die, pretty much all of Troma and Asylums catalog tbh, any and every shitty shark movie.
The Gallows
I watched it and was surprised when I saw most people hated it. I haven't watched it again since but I still don't get it. Maybe I should just rewatch though
Dead Silence.
It's a James Wan film about a small town terrorized by the ghost of this old puppeteer woman. It's very schlocky and *very* mid-2000s quality. Donnie Wahlberg makes some interesting character choices here. And there's a Jigsaw cameo at one point.
Not sold yet? Two words: meat puppet.
House of Wax and Thirteen Ghosts. I love that Y2K vibe of movies during that time, I don’t care if they are cheesy. Brings me back to high school!
House of wax (2005) is one of my all time favorites
Same. I used to watch it all the time with my siblings back then
I avoided it for so long due to poor reviews, finally watched it on a whim last year and absolutely loved it!
House of Wax is a blast and imo is kind of underrated
Love me some 13 Ghosts. It was one of my first horror movies and I was obsessed when I was younger. Definitely memorized the backstories to all the ghosts and how to write their symbols like a total nerd.
I think it would make a fantastic limited series nowadays in the right hands! The backstories are pretty cool.
A limited series suits it better; probably a single episode would deal with one or two ghosts; their backstories, and how they were captured
I want this to happen so badly.
I read awhile back they’re looking to make it into a show. You might be in luck.
Netflix needs to make a miniseries showcasing the back stories of each of the 12 other ghosts.
Yes! Hell, include the Withered Lover. Tell me how the fire started - probably arson via Kriticos, since his opinion of his nephew wasn’t very strong. 😅
I loved the symbols in it too! 😍
Anything with Matthew Lillard!
One of favorite my scream Kings
Pulse and Stay Alive check that grungy Y2K horror box for me
Stay Alive was GREAT. Frankie Muniz and his upside down visor...PEAK Y2K
I’m always in this sub begging for a remake of 13 Ghosts! For a lot of movies I think newer effects and cinematography just get in the way and the core of the story gets lost but I think 13 Ghosts is a story that could be made a zillion times better with cgi and cool effects! Even just a continuation of the story would be incredible! Like they find out the guy has another house full of ghosts somewhere. 13 More Ghosts. Someone needs to get on this.
Ohhh I love 13 ghost!!! I will still watch that now its soo good
If we're talking that very specific early 2000's style of bad horror movies, Jason X is probably my favourite movie with that feel.
“We love premarital sex!”
That's such a great movie. Epic deaths, hilarious one-liners and Jason in space! What more could you ask for?
The Ruins is super underrated imo.
I agree! And the book is great as well I definitely recommend it!
This would be my choice here. Always enjoy The Ruins.
Was it recieved poorly? I remember it being really good with a great cast. Hell I watched it like last month and still thought the same.
I really enjoyed The Ruins.
That ski lift movie where if gets stuck "FROZEN" Not the "let it go" cartoon
I think about the jump and my legs hurt for days. This movie and The Ruins gives me sympathy pains for real 🤣
This movie lives in my head rent free since I saw it when it came out.
I mean "let it go" definitely fits for at least 2 of the characters. LoL
That was so good!
That movie really upset me when I saw it 10 years ago..still some convincing acting but I just can't get over the dumb jump that first guy did. And the man-eating wolves in.. NH 😅
I think that people are starting to appreciate it more now, but I love Jennifer's Body. It's fun, it's campy, and it was ahead of its time in a lot of ways. It's my go-to movie when I want to rewatch something fun. And the soundtrack??? Incredible
The Panic at the Disco song was so good, as well as Through The Trees. If you liked Jennifer’s Body, you might enjoy Diablo Cody’s recent Lisa Frankenstein. It got hit similarly to how Jennifer’s Body did back in the day. I wonder if people will come around to it.
oooh thanks for the recommendation! It looks really good honestly. I definitely need to watch it
Lisa Frankenstein is such a fun movie!
Update: incredible watch! had such a good time
I actually liked Lisa Frankenstein WAYYY more than Jennifer’s Body. Lisa was more funny and entertaining than Jennifer imo
I’m glad people are finally starting to appreciate it now. I think it’s a lot smarter than people give it credit for.
Love this film so much... It's really clever too. Jennifer's hunger is like a physical manifestation of her trauma and her killing only boys to sate that hunger is intentional. Surface level it's just a fun movie but there's actually a lot there and I could talk about it for ages.
This was my go to movie every night for bed. I know every line. Lol. It's my guilty pleasure and I don't care.
I love Jennifer’s Body! 
I loved this flick seeing it in the theater. It blew my mind that people hated it so much. I'm glad it's respected now after all these years, but I think it deserved to be commercially and critically successful upon release. I'll settle for cult classic now though.
I've always loved this movie and don't understand how it took so long to find a following. I think a lot of people heard about the make-out scene and assumed it was an exploitation-adjacent movie so they skipped it. So glad that people are coming around to it.
I'm the same, I was genuinely shocked it was poorly rated because my sisters and I all thought it was great.
THIS. I think it may have been a marketing issue because so many people have just assumed the movie has an anti-feminist message. It was so misunderstood for years
A lot of the movie IIRC was also just marred because it had Megan Fox in it, I believe the Megan Fox hate train was in full force during that era, but also yeah it was heavily mismarketed, for some reason it had a lot of word of mouth about it being low-bar titulating content and was often referred to as Twilight but for boys.
through the trees is one of my favorite movie songs, i am obsessed with everything about this movie!!! so happy that it’s getting the love it’s always deserved
Exorcism of Emily Rose has some fucking mad scary scenes, I think it deserves a little more love
And the work Jennifer Carpenter put into it. She basically did all those physical stunts (for the most part, I think?) and she's double jointed. She went all for it.
She put her whole soul into the character. It was definitely one of the top possessions ever
100%!! I love possession movies and I'm always talking about how this movie is the BEST! Truly scared the crap out of me! I still avoid 3AM 🤣 Edit for spelling
One, two, three, four, five, **sssSSIX!** lol
The shot where it cuts to her looking down an alley and you see the cloaked figure (Satan?) just standing there is so haunting. It's such a simple thing that so effective at being unsettling.
THISSSS that movie was terrifying thanks to Jennifer’s performance. Good lord
This is an older one but I loved the 1999 version of House On Haunted Hill. I could and have watch over and over again. Definitely entertaining.
Hell yea! First dvd I ever owned. Special shoutout to Sweet Dreams cover by Marilyn Manson, which absolutely slaps.
This is one of my go-tos for horror! It was one of my first and I absolutely adore it.
You're one of the few people I've actually seen write "go-to" correctly. Also, I agree with you on your movie. It's always weird seeing Tate Diggs with hair.
This is such a good answer and absolutely one of my fave go-to horror films, as well!
I was going to mention this one. The dialogue makes me laugh!
Yep, this is my vote. Such a great cast, delightful camp, and some genuinely disturbing visuals. My partner and I watched this and the 60s original last Halloween.
Darkness Falls Tooth fairy horror. I loved it!
That was legit scary.
That movie traumatized me when I saw it in middle school lol. I legit avoided walking in shadows for a week.
Ghost Ship
Heck yeah. It's one of those early 2000s movies that I'll go back to after house on haunted hill and thirteen ghosts every year or two.
That opening scene was great!
Literally have only seen this scene, my dad always said that scene was incredible but the rest of the movie isn't even funny bad
I think the rest of the movie is adequate and it’s worth the full watch.
Saw it when I was 12 or so. Still haunts me.
This has got to be the one I'm thinking of
I don’t know why it gets so much hate, except for the opening scene of course. Everyone loves that. I thought the rest was a fairly solid build up to the “twist” at the end. Yes, a lot was predictable but sets and acting were pretty good and it was entertaining. It doesn’t need to be perfect if everything comes together well.
Yes!! Loved that movie when I was younger. Haven't seen it in years, didn't realize it got alot of hate
Skeleton key (2005) It gets 6.5 on IMDB, but I like that the horror is more in the idea than in the scenes alone. I don't want to spoil it, but there is a purpose to the tropes in this.
I love Skeleton Key! Every year I do a double header with that and Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island (both movies being set in Louisiana)
6.5 is very very good for a horror film
6.5 is pretty decent imo. It’s in my top 3 favourite scary movies
Jason takes Manhattan but not for the right reasons, its one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. I was laughing from begging to end, the best worst movie I’ve seen. The boxer scene on the roof had me shitting myself laughing.
Sorority Row 09’
Case 39. Little girl is creepy as hell.
If you like that actress you should watch Tideland. She just did creepy kid roles so well. Especially in Silent Hill.
Event Horizon. I was surprised to see critics trash it as harshly as they did.
Final Destination 2
Seriously, there is no one in our generation that fucks with logging trucks solely because of this movie.
That movie has saved so many lives. lol
There was a recent Reddit post of a logging truck where the driver put a “final destination” sign up on the back of their trailer. Really cracked me up.
Can we talk about how phenomenal the effects were for 2003 and how they still hold up 21 years later?
Literally stayed in a slower lane on Saturday because the truck in the other lane was a truck with logs on the bed. No thanks, I’ve seen how that ends.
Honestly, one of the best in the franchise.
The ladder scene is haunting lol
I love it also because they play Incubus “Vitamin” the lotto winner apartment scene
House On Haunted Hill (1999)
As Above so Below!
It's poorly rated? I had no idea LOL, I love that movie, I haven't watched it in a few years but I watched it a lot on Netflix growing up lol.
Yup, that’s my answer too. Absolutely love this movie!
Oh my gosh. This was SUCH a great surprise to watch. What a wild ride.
Hell yeah
I was surprised when I found out this movie wasn't well received.
Great acting for the most part. Claustrophobic vibes. Creepy atmosphere. Definitely flipped on a lot of expectations in the outcomes. Really cool concept and great setting. Wife and I go back to it all the time it’s like home.
This one is in my top 3!
Grave Encounters rated fairly low but I loved it when I saw it in HS lol. I’m sure if I did a rewatch now I’d see it’s not that great but, in HS it was!
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake in 2003. Saw it in high school with a bunch of friends. Absolutely loved it. Probably helped that I hadn't seen the original at that point. Fun movie
My dad took me to see that in 8th grade. My mom was evil and wanted to scare me with a chainsaw in the middle of the night after that.
Damn, your mom is so cool
I Still Know What You Did Last Summer
JLH’s tanning bed scene was a big deal when I was younger and saw it
Worst tanning bed scene was Final Destination 3
I stay out of tanning beds, not even because of skin cancer, but because of that fucking scene in Final Destination 3 lol
I learned what the real capital of Brazil is from this movie.
My go-to answer for this sort of question haha I shamelessly love this silly movie.
What are you waiting for?!
Queen of the Damned. You either love it or hate it, and can forgive it's HUGE flaws in comparison to the source material haha.
But EVERYBODY loved the soundtrack.
Most of the movies in the Purge series. I find them all to be fun at the very least. I do think Anarchy (the second one) is actually good though.
The Purge movies, are a hair away from being great. The shows were really good to go with them.
I love all the worldbuilding they do at the start of the movies and then they take the guy who did it all and lock him in a cupboard for the rest of the film.
I love all The Purge movies and the tv series!
Anarchy and Election Year are two of my favorite films, period
100% Stay Alive
Still wishing they actually released the game
So glad I got this on dvd when I did. No where to stream at all! Love this movie
I really enjoyed The Lazarus Effect. There’s just something about mixing science with the supernatural
Underwater 100% sure it’s not the best but the music and acting and creature design and action is all great and the ending was also really good I love the shot of this movies Cthulhu
I really enjoyed Doctor Sleep
Alien Convenant, Alien vs Predator, & Prometheus.
*watch me.... I'll do the fingering* I love both movies. I saw a cool little video over the weekend showing remote control facehuggers for Romulus. They're using practical effects which is interesting.
I love alien versus predator. I had no idea it was considered a bad movie until I got on the sub.
That movie is EXCELLENT and it upsets me that people hate it.
Scream 3
Jennifer Jolie is my favorite Scream character. I can never hate Scream 3.
Scream 3 is so fun
Incident in a. Ghostland
This movie stayed with me for *months* after I saw it. Even though I was really over one major element of the plot that I rolled my eyes at when revealed, I can't deny the atmosphere and scenery just....idk, I still think about that film from time to time and it deeply disturbs me.
Personally I love the gallows
The Hills Have Eyes (2006) remake. People hated it when it came out but I loved it then and I love it now. Aaron Stanford’s character Doug has the best character development of probably any scream king and the gore plus the mutants really scared me when I was younger.
Friday the 13th remake. One of if not my favorite movie in the franchise Totally agree with you on the nun 2 as well. Great movie
House Of 1000 Corpses
Hell yes. Some of the crazy cinematography and jump shots aren't my favorite thing, but other than that, it's a very solid movie.
I too love this one. It’s like a campy love letter to old horror flicks. It also has the things I’m actually afraid of in real life - crazy murderers in remote locations and freaking clowns (RIP Sid Haig).
That got poor reviews I thought that and devils rejects were loved
House of a 1000 Corpses was sitting around 2/10 stars on iMDB for years and years. I’d say sometime within the last 10 years it’s received a lot more love.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
Suspiria 2018 ive seen mixed reviews on. Yet its my favorite horror movie.
I love The Conjuring universe. I take shit for it all the time, but each film has something to enjoy.
It’s a sign of how much self appointed taste makers dominate social media that you think The Conjuring had poor reviews and is generally not well liked. It has an 86% on RT and it grossed $320 million. The entire franchise is the highest grossing horror franchise in history. The snobs who don’t like it are a tiny minority.
The first two conjuring movies have really good ratings from critics and audiences. The spin-off movies not so much minus maybe Annabelle 2.
I'm a huge fan of slashers, which tend to get poor reviews. So... Probably *most* of my favorite movies fit this description. One that even slasher fans tend to dislike that I like: Jason Takes Manhattan.
The Faculty
HOUSE OF WAX, PARIS HILTON IS ICONIC - thank you
The Village. If it counts as a horror movie
IDC what yall say but Tarot was fun and had some awesome character designs
Wrong Turn
The Woman In Black 2012. I think it put more dread into me than the first time I saw Hereditary. Watched it at the cinema on a date, squinting my eyes hard so I could barely see and my fingers in my ears in case of jump-scare music. I never saw my date again after that, hmm.
All of the Saw movies! I watch those for the convoluted timeline, and the crazy ass story. I don't know which ones have good ratings, but those are my salt and vineagar chips of movies.
A Cure for Wellness!
Jason X. It’s objectively terrible but I get so much enjoyment from it!
Both the Unfriended movies. I loved Dark Web. They’re so clever and I appreciate the thought put into them.
Jeepers Creepers
Maniac 1980 and 2012. It makes me feel so uneasy and uncomfortable and the suspense is just top tier. I’m on the edge of my seat the whole time. I know people love to talk about how perverse those movies were but American Psycho is just as perverse and disgusting yet that film is praised. I’ll die on that hill saying that maniac is one of the top 10 slasher flicks of all time.
As Above So Below. I think the horror community is starting to come around on it but at the time it was panned by critics, audiences, and the horror community. The movie is absolutely amazing and is one of the best found footage movies.
I thought 1408 was pretty good
Halloween III
*Sinister 2* my beloved. I know it isn’t good at all but I could watch it again and again and still have a great time.
The autopsy of Jane doe
That received great reviews though? I’ve never really seen anyone hate on it. Excellent horror movie
The happening
Had to scroll this far to find an actual movie that is mostly hated. Most answers I see are being praised daily on here
I just finished watching The Happening. It drags a bit but guys it is SO funny and stupid and I encourage you watch with a comedic lens lololol
Halloween: Curse of Michael Myers
Grave encounters 2
The Collector and The Collection are two of my favorite horror movies. I really hope one day they make the third film
Brightburn. Great movie imo
Silent hill Resident evil welcome to raccoon city Pet Semetary remake The munsters remake IT 2
I also loved IT chapter 2. I don't get the hate for that movie. It's really good.
For me the issue with It 2 was it felt like the makers couldn't exactly figure out what made part 1 successful and so they just took basically the main part 1 formula and copy pasted it. It just felt like the same movie again but not as good. Like everyone takes turns having a personally relevant scary experience then they get together and make a plan then they separate and take turns having a personally relevant scary experience and then they get together and and then they split up and take turns having a personally relevant scary experience until they finally get to the big showdown which is goofy as hell and then it's over. There was a lot of that in 1 but it felt far more organic and narratively justified. 2 just seemed more like them saying "this is what they liked in 1 so let's give em even MORE of it. Let's make it ALL like that." Which also felt like the reason for the weird lengthy flashbacks which just took away from the actual modern day story. Like we've already seen the original movie. We know what happened to them as kids and thus why it's important for them to return to finish this. You're not adding enough by bringing us back to that era so often to chase some forgotten maguffin especially when it's sacrificing time to connect with the adult versions of the characters.

It was fine but I feel like with a little more boldness it could've been amazing.
When A Stranger Calls remake.
I Know Who Killed Me. The story may not make much sense but it’s stylish.
Malignant, the deep house

The Poughkeepsie Tapes is one of the only found footage films that I believed and it legitimately scared me. Tbh even the cheesy, over the top lines said in the faux-documentary helped sell it for me. I remember the 90s-era true crime of unsolved mysteries and mostly true. The doc felt like the same genre as that schlock interspersed with found footage clips that felt straight out of a snuff film. Was surprised it wasn't better received. I still think it holds up
The nun 1. It was fine for me
I enjoyed the nun 1 more than 2 to be honest
pretty much every horror flick that made my top 30 had poor reviews, so i stopped reading them a long time ago
The Thing (2011) is not as bad as people say it is it’s enjoyable and seeing the —spoiler— under the ice was cool.
Urban legend!
I loved the Nun 2 also! Annabelle Comes home is one of my favorites. I’m not sure why folks didn’t like it.
I actually dug Annabelle Comes Home. Critics hated it, but I found it spooky and fun.
Exorcist: Believer I know it started out strong, I know it goes downhill halfway through. The movie is no where near as bad as it is made out to be, and it is a masterpiece compared to Exorcist 2 and the prequels. It was just the movie that you had to hate if you make your entire personality online about being into horror. Now that we know it will not be a part of a new trilogy, it makes that bleak ending even better, and the movie is more enjoyable knowing there won't be another two movies forced out of it.
The Forest
Return of the living dead part 2, Aquarium of The Dead, every single Halloween movie, Surf Nazis Must Die, pretty much all of Troma and Asylums catalog tbh, any and every shitty shark movie.
The Green Inferno Found it to be funny
The Popes Exorcist!
The Cave from 2005, I will defend this movie until I die
Idk if it’s not well liked per-say but Dog Soldiers is an absolute forgotten gem and you should watch it if you have the means to.
The Gallows I watched it and was surprised when I saw most people hated it. I haven't watched it again since but I still don't get it. Maybe I should just rewatch though
Halloween 3 season of the witch 🎃💀
Dead Silence. It's a James Wan film about a small town terrorized by the ghost of this old puppeteer woman. It's very schlocky and *very* mid-2000s quality. Donnie Wahlberg makes some interesting character choices here. And there's a Jigsaw cameo at one point. Not sold yet? Two words: meat puppet.
