And here’s how your choices did…
Spoiler:
Okay so "worst horror movie" can be interpreted a number of ways and as someone who does
not like horror movies in general this might be a bit tough... but to me I think the "worst" ones are probably those old B movies that look so campy and cheaply-made and silly.
I can see why
Player B would think this is a "bad horror movie" because if you're shopping for a horror movie this would be a bad option... but it's one of the most eye-opening documentaries certainly of this century so I cannot in good faith put this anywhere but last, so 1 point
I can see why people would think Paranormal Activity is bad but up against the other options submitted here it just generally looks like a well-made, big budget Hollywood hit and I can see why it was successful, so I have to put
Player E 4th with 2pts...
As for the other three this is tough... but I'm gonna put
Player C third with 3pts because whilst the Jaws sequels were definitely bad, I think they're also a product of the special effects of their time... and also I'd consider this more of an action movie than a horror one really, though I can see the blurred line. This is indeed laughably bad now but that's the 70s for you...
I'll then put
Player A in second because this does seem to tick all the boxes of a bad horror movie: a ridiculous premise, some wooden acting, and some very bizarre special effects... but I get the impression this is trying to be a serious movie at least?
Which is why I give the win to
Player D because this has to be a joke someone put together with a budget of $250... surely??!!?
