  1. Eloise
    Robert Legato's film is lifelessly composed of the usual tropes of horror films set in mental asylums.
  2. America: Imagine a World Without Her
    Beholden to the same plethora of taboos, half-truths, and outright lies traded en masse by mainstream conservatism for the last seven years.
  3. Evidence
    One wishes it had spared us the remedial theorizing on media culture and artistic representation and license and less apologetically acted the part of a straight-up horror film.
  4. A Little Bit of Heaven
    Unsurprisingly for a film detailing terminal disease, this is a largely solemn affair, often verging on morbidity in its elongated deathwatch.
  5. The Offering
    It inspires retrospective gratitude for the empty yet slick craftsmanship of someone like James Wan.
  6. City of Dreams
    The film resembles less a realistic peek into the modern slavery of immigrants in America as it does grist for the torture porn mill.
  7. Cabin Fever
    Travis Zariwny detachedly regards the material as shtick to be waded through with quotation marks.
    • 13 Metascore
    • 0 Critic Score
    Love, Wedding, Marriage
    Love, Wedding, Marriage is a movie so shallow and wooden, its actors less models than mannequins, that it resembles a furniture catalogue.
  9. Golf in the Kingdom
    The film, for all its trite lessons, forgets that people mainly play golf because they enjoy it.
    • 13 Metascore

    Red Hook Black
    That Red Hook Black, a strained film about two friends struggling with jobs and family in a bleak, thickly spread economic milieu, is adapted from a play is painfully obvious; that it's never able to transcend its staginess makes it unbearable.
  11. 10 Minutes Gone
    Almost every element of the film has been seemingly engineered to be the ne plus ultra of slapdash ineptitude.
  12. Oconomowoc
    Writer-director Andy Gillies's film is extremely self-conscious, but in a fashion that generally serves the material.
  13. Left Behind
    Left Behind is one of those films so deeply, fundamentally terrible that it feels unwittingly high-concept.
    • 11 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    The Dungeonmaster
    The Dungeonmaster is little more than a fitfully entertaining calling card meant to showcase Empire’s talented in-house special effects artists and stop-motion animators.
  15. Persecuted
    There's no attempt to convince us that the world is being corrupted by people who haven't accepted the Gospel; it merely assumes we agree with that idea.
  16. Some Kind Of Beautiful
    A hodgepodge of horny-old-man clichés writ large, staged as a gleeful affirmation of its male lead's ego and entitlement.
  17. The Victim
    Not much happens in The Victim, but the events that do manage to transpire consistently support a reading of the film as an older man's fantasy of virility.
  18. Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers
    The Curse of Michael Myers’s supernatural angle is understandably its weakest link, seeing as it was the aspect of the film that test audiences disliked the most.
  19. The Tortured
    Robert Lieberman's Perverted Justice advert spins its wheels with scene after scene impatiently cut like a montage sequence.
  20. Cosmic Sin
    Every story beat is unimaginatively cribbed from better films and every tepid exchange of dialogue is unconvincingly performed.
  21. 3 Geezers!
    The convoluted mockumentary setup indicates that this is all meant to be taken as a meta exercise in Hollywood-insider rib-nudging, although the proceedings rarely rise to the occasion.
  22. The Walking Deceased
    This juvenile horror-comedy spoof is primarily, if unintentionally, a cautionary tale about the perils of allowing brahs to make movies.
  23. Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!
    The really frustrating thing about Tomatoes is the toothlessness of its satire.
  24. The Haunting of Sharon Tate
    In a film that features Charles Manson and his disciples, there’s something unsavory about presenting Sharon Tate as one of the crazy ones.
  25. Prince of Swine
    Played as broadly and as crudely as you please (in terms of acting, direction, "edgy" dialogue), Prince of Swine paints a grimly ugly portrait of male sexual violence and female submission.
  26. The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence)
    Tom Six has achieved the seemingly impossible: He's made a film even less watchable than "The Human Centipede II."
  27. Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party
    The film is an incoherent and aesthetically barren harangue masquerading as a revisionist history lesson.
  28. The Garbage Pail Kids Movie
    Imagine parents sitting in the audience with their naughty children (who used their Cabbage Patch dolls as driveway obstructions for their Big Wheel obstacle courses) and feeling ruefully double-crassed.
  29. 10 Rules for Sleeping Around
    For a film so bent on naturalizing the presumably hilarious incongruity of "the sexes," it sure features lots and lots of that site of horror: a naked male body. And for comedic purposes, of course.
  30. Raw Faith
    Peter Wiedensmith's methods aren't as cinematic as they could be, but even this seems to ably mirror Marilyn Sewell's humility.
