ITT: Shit tier horror movies

...

DONT THINK IT DONT SAY IT

Rest Stop and it's sequel

Inane banality sums up the entirety of this movie. I cannot believe how highly recommended this trite piece of garbage is in the horror field. This was actually much, MUCH worse than "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer," which was a total waste of my time. A friend, who watched this garbage with me observed, "You know? Aside from no one being naked, this really reminds me of a porno." Okay, hence the exploitation feel of this film. I don't care. How could I possibly care? The "atmosphere" everyone raves about just came off as a really bad porn and nothing more. Nothing could have saved this film from Argento's lack of talent but a really good remake. Hopefully, they won't make the mistake of assuming that this was, in any way, to be considered "artsy." The acting quality is nonexistent and the screen play should have been exorcised and then buried in about 7 tons of salt, if you ask me. Even the "ballerinas" were inept. I've seen better down at the local play house.
Most of the players and the director being Italian is a far cry from making this "art." European does not equate "art." Sorry, but no. This is rubbish. Nothing but unadulterated crap. The "effects" are laughable and there was not one redeeming performance in this whole venture. All I've accomplished in watching this garbage is the wasting of 95-98 minutes. I should've taken a nap, instead. The time would have been put to much better use.
The musical score sounded like something that a two-year-old crackhead relentlessly banged out on the kitchen pots and pans in an epileptic seizure to rival the mother of all epileptic fits. The sound effects were distracting rather than complementary; cutting in and out at the worst possible moments, and coming off like some irritating noise an eight year old was making in the back seat of the car to annoy his dork brother.

Was it bad? I'll always give Doug Jones an opportunity.

I don't know why, maybe because I read the book in advance (I loved it), but I hated this with a passion

lol okay Stephen, is it any coincidence the best adaptation of your work is also the least grounded in the source material?

notice I didn't say it was shit, I said I hated it
I don't give a shit about any Stephen King adaptations, maybe it's just Kubrick's style I couldn't stand
Nicholson's acting was superb, I give it that

the babadook is an excellent drama though..
production and plot are good and the whole idea of the movie is quite smart actually with so much being left to interpretation ; may not be good horror movie but is good movie period - good characters, immersion and plot development.

probably won't scare anyone, may make you feel uneasy in small amounts, still worth watching

i don't regard it as a horror movie, but more as some kino-ish psychological drama (??) if that makes any sense really

He really reminded me of the joker in that movie, he would've been great for thtat role if theyd gone for an older interpertation of the character iinstaed of heath ledger

>best adaptation of your work
If you're going to sit there with a straight face and say that The Shining was a better adaptation than The Green Mile or Shawshank Redemption you may need to see a doctorb. Shelley Duvall is an atrocious actor.

I think user meant it was the best movie to be adapted from kings work, more than him saying it was faithful as an adaptation.
But i never read harry potter so I dont read king. Except for the sexy bits in gerald's game.
