Horror That Just Pissed You Right Off!

What do you think that the most disappointing horror movie ever is?

I would have to say my personal choice is A Nightmare on Elm Street 2. I watched the first one and loved it then I watched the second and it was completely disappointing. Some more disappointing ones are Jason Goes to Hell, Poltergeist 3, and the new Halloweens.

How about other fellow Bidites? What is the most disappointing horror movie you ever watched?

I was seriously about to watch ANOES 2 today.

I also watched the trailer and researched some interesting facts about it because I remember liking it so much. hmmm... So clearly I disagree. The movie wasn't perfect

but the story took the next step in originality and the visuals were AMAZING. (ie. freddy's pulng brain, Jesse transforming into Freddy, etc.) Not to mention the finale was intense.

I did miss Nancy but I liked Kim Myers' character Lisa.

I did find it odd that Jesse found his teacher at an erotic bar, then the teacher took him to the school to do laps for punishment. (For no apparent reason, and it was so unrealistic). That was a flaw in my opinion.

Yeah I also disagree NOES 2 isn't as good as the first but I personally really like it and in comparison to the rest of the sequels (Except new nightmare) it's a clasc.

I suppose that the rest of the series was worse than part 2. It wasn't excellent under any circumstances but the rest were worse.

I've said it before and I'll say it again...My Soul to Take. I had such high hopes going into it and it was just completely horrible. Also, Friday the 13th Part 5. Could've been a great movie with the idea of someone else taking over the mantle of "Jason", but it was just bad in every sense of the word.

Jesse had a note on his door that says "no girls allowed"....then did the gayest dance ever during the

" putting his stuff away" montage...There are so many "gay" things in that movie it's riDICKulous....

NOES3 is so much better than NOES2.

I would have to say that "Jason X" and "Freddy vs. Jason" were among my major disappointments. Sure, the battle sequence in FvsJ was pretty sweet, but the rest of the film itself I could do without. And throwing Jason in outer space...really!?!

Pertaining to the Elm Street series, I did enjoy the second installment. It did have its goofy moments, but the Freddy flicks are supposed to have that "comic relief" from Englund (who just does it so well). In my opinion, part 5: The Dream Child is the weakest within the series.

This is the only NOES I really enjoy, I can barely t through any of the others and I watched this over 20 times.

I've been disappointed by a lot of films, NOES2 being chief among them, but few ticked me off as much as Red Eye. I touched on it briefly in a review I posted here for that particular film. I loved the premise, loved the casting (Cillian Murphy is all kinds of brilliant), but I walked way from it pissed the hell off that after ALL that the female lead had gone through, and all the ass she had kicked by herself, that in the end she had to be saved by her daddy.

The film even touched on some feminist issues, having the female lead infer that she had been raped at some point and vowed never to let someone harm her again, so it would only have made sense had she saved the day all on her own. For the final blow to come not just from a parental figure, but a MALE parental figure, seemed way off course for the overall theme of the film.

WOW i have tried posting a reply twice now explaining my choices and everything!!

FUCK IT

Im just gonna list them

Rob Zombie's Halloween 2 Paranormal Activity 3 The Grudge 2 Hostel

A Nightmare On Elm Street (remake) The Hills Have Eyes (remake) The Uninvited High Tenon John Carpenter's The Ward

Ther is another one that i cant think of

I could not posbly be disappointed by The Grudge 2, cos I thought The Grudge was such crap that I had no high hopes for the sequel.

I dunno i enjoyed the first but the second was a dissapointment =p Sorry you didnt like it!! Do you disagree on any of the others i posted??

Generally, I'm dead-set against remakes of clasc films, so the very idea that remakes would have been done of any Halloween, ANOES, The Hills Have Eyes, etc, irks me to no end in itself.

I didn't have high hopes for Hostel, cos I generally don't dig torture porn, and some idjit spoiled me on High Tenon before I even saw it.

And I haven't seen The Ward as yet, I have it tting here from Netflix but have yet to play it.

Ghostriders. Not "Ghost Rider" with Nice CGe, but the 1986 western/horror. Never before in my life have I been so insulted by a movie. I HATED it!!!

Any Ti West movie!
