The Terror of Low Hanging Fruit! What are the worst horror movies?

So to refresh my memory on bad horror movies - because when I was younger I used to love go see them... I looked up some of the worst and none of them I had ever scene. But I was thinking there was this old horror movie that I loved (I know it is a bad movie- but I still like it)

Ssssss - let is sounds it is about snakes. So just there it gives one the creeps. Gotta watch it.

I was going to give the story but just in case anyone wants to watch I don't want to be spoiler on the plot.

Now that I think about it I might have to see if it is on amazon prime

I immediately thought of Tingler, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes and that homemade movie that featured people in the woods and somebody shaking stuff at them.

Does the Great Mr. Limpet qualify as a horror movie?

Loved that too

We Are What We Are, strange movie with hints of cannibalism. If that's not enough, a bad storm which erodes the ground by the river, revealing...

...Bones!



An almost laugh-all-day horror movie would be 1987's Dolls. It serves as a reminder, he careful when stopping for an overnight stay in an unknown place.




And be sure to check out The Dorm That Dripped Blood. I could not stop laughing it was so terrorizingly bad. The blood looked more like a smashed jar of maraschino cherries

An early movie for me was The Beast of Yucca Flats. Atomic radiation gone bad! I was quite young and it did not impress me other than a way to hide from the authorities.

A movie I saw a decade after release was Five Million Years To Earth. (apparently the British title was Quatermass and the Pit.
My viewing took place at about 4:00-a.m.on New Year's Day 1977. It was the only thing on t.v. when I returned from a New Years Eve party. Seemed okay then, saw it again about 10 years later and it was perplexingly awful.

It will make you think of the London underground system(and all subways) differently.

Dolls - is that anything like Child's Play?



I was also going to mention that one as well.

I especially loved this scene when the doll gave the finger

Also wanted to add most of the worst horror movies are all the later sequels. So this is a bad horror movie to begin with and each later sequel got progressively worse.

Child’s Play 2
Child’s Play 3
Bride of Chucky
Seed of Chucky

House of Wax

I didn’t see it mentioned but definitely “Night of the Living Dead”. I can’t say if it’s fitting in the worst category or in the so-bad-that-it’s-good category. BTW, the original had its 50th anniversary just last year. This is one movie kids should not see. Not a happy ending at ALL!

“Kill the brain and you kill the ghoul!”
“They’re coming to get you, Barbara!”

Shoehorning ill-defined Native American adjacent evil spirts with terrible formerly famous teen actors in their 20s into a low budget horror film? That's a recipe for a shite horror film.

I Know Who Killed Me (2007)

Easily one of the worst movies of 2021. But at least it's unintentionally hilarious.
