1. feardotcom (for being a blatant ring ripoff)
2. house of the dead
3. the haunting (remake)
4. Bones (snoop is a knob)
5. the Mangler (even the Englund, in all of his cackling, maniacal, leering, glory could save this trash)

I hate high budget horror that completely blows it. It may sound like common sense, but I'm much more forgiving to lower budget movies than I am to high budget ones. And out of all the movies mentioned on here that I disagree with, the ones I mostly disagree with are Halloween 3, TCM 2, and Creepshow.
Since no one has come to the defense of Creepshow, I'll say this: any movie where a zombie comes out of the grave not two seconds after whiskey is dumped onto said grave, is awesome. It's as though the whiskey has brought dear ol dad out of retirement and back up to his old tricks of keeping down his kids.

And I don't know if anyone has said this or not, but the whole pagan/Wicker Man vibe Halloween 3 gets at the end is great. I honestly couldn't give two shits if double M was in it. In fact, some of the other movies in the franchise would probably have been better off if they would have just left him out of it.
