What is the dumbest scary movie you have ever seen?

I would have to say more recently the dumbest scary movie I have seen was the movie Drive Thru..(Horror gets Super Sized when Horny The Clown, the demonic mascot of "Hella-Burger," starts slashing Orange County teenagers with his meat cleaver from Hell) Scary no?

But if you would like a good laugh...I encourage you to see it.

I JUST saw that movie for the first time like a week ago. Late. But still. It was lame. But, the ending with all the barbed wire was okay...kinda.

It was Final Destination III for me.
The first one was a thriller, then they decided to make a second one, which was kinda cliche but still okay to watch. However, they HAD to squeeze in a third one...=__=

Evil Dead. I was like 9 when I saw that and I nearly peed my pants laughing at various points throughout it! That is if that's the movie I think it is... The one with the disembodied hand and stuff, it as so comical! I couldn't help but be amused! I may be thinking of another movie but I was pretty sure it was that one, someone can correct me if I'm wrong though! =D

Hmm, I enjoy "scary" movies as much as the next person, but Silent Hill was not very good in a "scary" way. It had a lot of gore, creapy creatures etc, but the movie itself was very, umm, disappointing (I have not played the game, since I avoid those kinds of games. I played F.E.A.R once, and that was enough of that genre).

Watch the originals, "Ringu" and "Ju On: The Grudge."

MUCH better. Like night and day.

"Dead Alive" was horrible, but it was supposed to be. One of those so-bad-it's-good-again movies. Oh Peter Jackson, what were you smoking?

As for movie that was supposed to, I think, be scary? "Rose Red" and "The Haunting" (remake) win in my book. I found myself laughing hysterically during the "spooky" scenes. Actually, I find that true of most remakes. What makes a lot of the older ones so scary is that you aren't shown the things going bump in the night. The imagined horror is usually far scarier than anything Hollywood cooks up.

The dummest scary movies I've seen was the classic M.Night Shyamalan's "The Village" and "Lady In The Water"

"The Village" was a waist of my money. I literally stood up in the theatre and shooted "This is the worst movie ever!!" and the crowded agreed with me, so we all stormed out of the theatre and ended up getting our money back, no lie! That twist was pathetic! I love it when Robot Chicken made fun of M. Night for his terrible movies!

"Lady In The Water" was a joke! Literally a joke! It was supposed to be a thriller but it ended up being a "comedy!"

I'd say it'd definitely have to be for me, 13 Seconds. What made it so terrible was the fact they actually TRIED to make it scary. It wasn't like Scary Movie where it was just a pure parody on horror movies. This movie actually tried and failed miserably. It was THAT dumb... 91 minutes of my life that I'll never see again. Sigh.

The videos that I find at the rental store that aren't produced by major companies. Lions Gate, has plenty of bad ones. And the stuff they show on the Sci-Fi channel. I'm not really into scary movies much as they are all the same, they have that classic campy feel I immediately turn it off or change the channel. My aunt gets a lot of those types, so I have quite a profound knowledge on this. Almost every one of them has a nudity shot, or another where someone gets killed while doing it... lol. abstinence, it'll save your life.

The ditsy blonde in the high heels who always trips and breaks her ankle.

I like stuff that has a different feel from the old jason movies.
The Ring, Hostel, Silent Hill(most of you are just mad cause it was based on the video game.). Anything that hasn't been done to death. 28 days later is better than 28 weeks later.

Resident Evil sucks in my book... they went way too far from the original story in the games.

Its a nice change for me. The last 18 years of my life most scary movies have had that campy feel. But I see that the change is not good enough for you noobs.

I think those two are very misunderstood. Both were excellent in my book, because they didn't rely on the usual blood and gore or even good-but-overused jump gimmicks.

After "Sixth Sense" I think people expected precisely the same from M. Night in every movie. So while people came away from "The Village" talking about how poor the twist was, I can only think they missed the point of the movie. Unlike "Sixth Sense" the twist did not and was not intended to make the movie. It was not setting up an "Oh my God!" moment.

Heck, I don't consider "Lady in the Water" to be horror at all. It's a fantasy, if anything. And that was part of the trouble, I think. Again, people went in expecting horror. Maybe not a "Sixth Sense" twist, but they expected to be scared. And that is the last thing the movie set out to do. It put the characters in danger, and scared them, but knew the audience would not be scared themselves. Again, that wasn't the point.

Sorry for the tangent ^^; I just can't see why those two are ragged on so much harder than "Signs" which had the WORST ENDING EVER.

Aside from crap aired only on the Sci-Fi channel (all of which is the toxic refuse of every respectable outlet- the film about gigantic mosquitoes comes to mind), I would nominate The Blair Witch Project as the most pathetic attempt at making a scary movie that I have ever watched. If I'd added a particular laugh, it could be somehting my eccentric uncle might film by himself in his back yard over the course of four hours. I was scared not once during that mess, and on more than one occaision I, along with several others in the theater, laughed aloud at the ill-constructed film.

By the way, I thought the Scary Movie series was spoofing horror films; was this not the case?

Exactly what I thought...

The worst I've seen was Final Destination 3. I watched it with my friend on TV and we couldn't stop laughing throughout the entire movie. Every death that happened was the least likely thing to happen in the situation (and even physically impossible) and it was so bloody that we couldn't help but crack up at every single death sequence. If that movie was intended to be an actual horror film than I have lost all faith in humanity.

I completely forgot about The Blair Witch Project... I guess my mind was trying to block it out. lol That movie was also terrible. After hearing so much of, "this movie was so scary, people had to walk out of the theater in the middle of it due to panic" I thought, "Oh wow, sounds like it'll actually be pretty good" and WHAM. It was pure crap. None of it was scary- at all. After seeing that, it makes me wonder if someone got that comment wrong and really, people left in the middle due to pure boredom. Pluh.

Believe me, I love horror flicks. The cheesy, the controversial, the outright strange... but BWP and 13 Seconds- blegh. Actually makes movies like Killer Clowns from Outspace seem pretttty decent. (I actually did like KCFO though... for the cheesy factor, I guess.)

28 Days Later wasn't all that horrible, and I have to say, sorry but the zombie premise predates Resident Evil. I can commend 28 Days Later for giving a nice twist on the traditional zombie flick by making the zombies insanely fast and powerful and even the smallest injury can get you infected. This twist and the likable, believable characters made the plotholes somewhat forgivable (the third act of the film is a joke, I mean, "the cure" for the infection is wait for them to starve? Since they don't eat, but I mean even a kid would ask why didn't they die of thirst. It was just dumb).

Not a great film, but it at least had a cast you could root for and feel for. It can be forgiven.

28 Weeks Later though, is something entirely different and something much worse. Top ten worst movies of 2007 bad.

Anyway, the worst horror film ever (also leaving out Sci-Fi movies) is The Grudge. Never seen the Japanese version, but I don't really want to after the American film.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space or something to that effect.

Ehm... fourth'd? Fifth'd?

I thought the first movies in all the "classic" horror series (Friday the 13th, Child's Play etc.) were horrible. Nightmare on Elm Street was OK. The worst by far was Halloween, which was pretty much plotless.

Silent Hill movie sucked hard compared to the game I'm huge fan since 1999, it's a damn tear.
I know that in the eyes of gamers, much like in the eyes of novel fans when a movie is based off a book, a movie based off a game can only be comparable to that game as to whether or not it's good... I have no idea what the original game is like, as I never played it, but on its own the Silent Hill movie was good and throughly creepy to me.

And yeah, "Scary Movie" and its sequels, though they are meant as parodies and not actual scary movies.

I recall going to a friend's party and seeing them watching an old scary black-and-white movie that had... a moving skeleton, or something. Wires visible. I didn't watch, but their laughter was hard to miss.


The dummest scary movies I've seen was the classic M.Night Shyamalan's "The Village" and "Lady In The Water"

[snip for length]

Um... they were never intended to be thrillers or scary movies. They had scary and thrilling parts to them, but that was not what they were written as. It's the marketing people you should blame, not Shyamalan.

ahh you got a point there, it's not that i blame the cast, the whole story and theme was a little silly for me ^=^' '28 weeks later' was as rubbish too in my opinion, wayy badder than that film, just gooley blood spilling and "scary" looking zombies doesn't scare me, i think a little depth into the story would've been better then it would intrigue me but moreover still not as high in my expectations should be when i watched the film, films like 'the others' was great and 'the exorcist' was classic.

28 Weeks Later completely destroys anything that made it's predecessor worthwhile. The entire thing is insanely and terribly stupid, the movie completely misjudges our loyalties; like the man who is forced to abandon his wife and child to a mob of the infected or suffer a similar fate. Now, if the movie went and dealt with this man's guilt, we might have had something special, but this shovelware pushes the audience to believe this poor guy is some scumbag who must be punished. That doesn't make sense at all, he could either run or try to fist-fight 20 superhuman zombies. No one would of stayed. There are tons more examples but I'm sure I'll get yelled at for spoilers, even if I want to make sure none of you ever see this movie.

Really, the movie's set up required a lot of stupid things to happen before the infection could devastate England again and by the time all of it finished I was so disgusted by humanity's incompetence I was rooting for the zombies to kill them all and wipe them off the face of the Earth. That just doesn't make for an effective horror movie.

I agree with you as well, 28WL became a splatter flick, much more interested in getting a bloody shot than giving a satisfying plot. It just becomes a giant pot of shaking cameras, special effects, and loud noises. Since this catastrophe failed to make us care about any of the stupid characters it just ratchets up the body count. The worst offender being the scene when that one guy (like I can try and remember the name) chops up a field of zombies with the rotor blades of his helicopter.

I guess the only thing this movie had going for it was that it wasn't as bad as other 2007 movies Delta Farce, Hitman, and Epic Movie.

There are some pretty stupid "scary" movies in the world. Last night i watched '1408' and the ending.... stunk. (was gonna say something else..) But while watching the previews for it? OH. MY. FREAKING. GOSH. The Grindhouse movies look ridiculous (doubt they're classified as 'horror' though) and while my brother and I were watching the preview for Black Sheep? We saw maybe a minute of it before we were wiping away the tears of hysterics from our eyes. I told my friend about it and he looked it up on the internet for the trailer and was like "O.O wow." I can't wait to see it. It looks great! In a "it's so stupid i wanna laugh my butt off whilst watching it" kinda way though... lol

Resident Evil 2 comes first to mind. But then, it never really tried that hard to be a horror movie so that may be a little unfair.

The worst horror movie I'll never see is the Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni movie. That or The Killer Condom.
