    Horror Movies to Avoid like the Plague????

    Okay, had this idea of horror movies not to waste your time on. I know this is subjective, so rebuttals are allowed and the majority consensus will determine if the movie is not worth a viewing whatsoever. We don't post much under anything but "Last Horror Movie You Watched" so let's bump up the activity here. I'll go first.

    Absentia - 0/10 My god. If you want to watch a couple of fat chicks piss and moan for 1&1/2 hours, then this movie is for you. A 5.8 on imdb? Jeez, more like a .58. I wondered what the barrel of a shotgun tasted like after this turd.

    Resolution - 0/10 So, a 6.2 on imdb? imdb can't be trusted. This is the type of movie for snobs that think they are so intelligent for understanding a movie such as Inception. Guy does a forced kidnapping rehab for his buddy and they run across little clues throughout the movie that start to unravel the mystery. Theoretical example: Oh god, there's a half eaten peanut butter twix. Better check him for tooth decay. Yes, that's how much sense this retarded motherfucking movie made. What a stupid movie. Don't ever watch it.

    Resolution should absolutely not be on a "avoid like the plague" list.

    Fair enough. Why though? What redeeming qualities did you find in this movie? All I could think is, "Look, ET is collecting all these parts so he can phone home!" LMAO!

    Couldn't disagree more on this one. Are there better flicks out there? Of course. Personally I think the rating is about right with this one. 136 user, and 124 critic is a decent consensus... definitely not a one-off or an outlier.

    I couldn't smoke enough crack to make this movie good. It's horrible. Just awful. No way can you think this movie is good in any sort of way.

    EVIL. 0/10.
    So bad I had to turn it off after 20 minutes. It's a greek zombie film. Their attempt at a "homage"(I use the term loosely) of Romero movies. When you have a guy laying on the floor with his guts hanging out, and you can actually see his stomach UNDER the prosthetics, along with a thumping techno soundtrack, it really does live up to it's name. If you've listened to our podcasts, then you would have heard us talk about how fucking bad this film is!!.

    Absentia a great movie? Jesus Christ you need to learn what a proper horror movie is about. I question your credibility for liking such a movie.

    Absentia is a great film though. I don't understand how someone can hate that film. Little indie surprise that did horror right.

    I liked what was offered. No academy awards here by a mile, but few really are, and I can see it not doing it for everyone.
    No problem here. "To each his own"... "eye of the beholder"... etc., etc...

    Maybe you should rephrase or alter the topic a bit. You cite IMDB on the rating, and are dumbfounded about what it gets. As I said before - 136 user reviews is hardly a global collective, but it's also far from being a one-off or an outlier. It's a decent sample size for a general consensus.

    The reason I bring it up again is because you seem more than happy to ditch the IMDB consensus for the flick, while in the same breath you're more than happy to jump on board with a consensus from the members posting in the thread. You can't have it both ways. If you hated the flick, and wouldn't recommend it to anybody that's cool. No offense but attatching a goose egg out of 10 to it is kind of ridiculous, or maybe even a bit disingenuous if you're going about this whole thing willingly playing the consensus card.
