Top 10 worst horror films of the decade

A few days ago, the top 10 best horror movies of the decade was revealed. Now it’s time for the 10 worst horror films of the past ten years. These are the worst of the worst. Films that made you cringe, wish you had the last 90-minutes of your life back, or made you want to claw your eyes out.

With plots that went nowhere, characters that made no sense, acting that was laughable, and endings that were just downright awful, these are the ten worst films of the past decade.

10. Grace (2009) - Madeline Matheson is eight months pregnant and determined to deliver her unborn child, Grace. When an accident leaves Grace dead inside her, Madeline insists on carrying the baby's corpse to term. Weeks later, when Madeline delivers, the baby miraculously returns to life...with an appetite. Horrible!

9. Jason X (2001) - Friday the 13th in space? C’mon, really? After a bunch of nanobots put the killer back together again like Humpty Dumpty, Jason begins his rampage on a spaceship in the 25th century. Certainly not the worst in the series, but definitely the worst of the past decade.

8. The Messengers (2007) - Before Kristen Stewart took the role as Bella, she starred in this god-awful flick about a family trying to put their lives back together, when something supernatural begins to happen in their son. Stewart is a bad enough actress, but putting her in a film like this is just torture. For us.

7. Turistas (2006) - Americans lost in a remote island location only to be terrorized...blah, blah, blah. This time it’s Brazil, this time no one cares, and this time you actually can’t wait for the next guy to bite the dust so the film can end.

6. The Haunting of Molly Hartley (2008) - As a friend of mine once said, “This is the worst episode of 90210 ever!” I agree. A 17-year old girl is stabbed by her mom, moved to a new school by her father, and friended by Miss Popular. Haunted by nightmares, Molly is destined to be a servant of the devil when she turns 18. Man, just kill her already and get this crap over with.

5. One Missed Call (2008) - A remake of a Japanese flick where people start getting phone messages from their future selves that include the date, time and details of their death. They should have switched cell phone companies.

4. Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000) - Stereotypical kids go in to the woods after becoming fascinated by what happened to the missing filmmakers from the first flick. They get stoned, drunk, and killed. The best part of this film? That it ended.

3. The Gingerdead Man (2005) - A girl sends a killer to the electric chair, but his ashes are scattered in a vat of...cookie dough? Let the craziness begin as he comes back as a demented gingerbread cookie to get his revenge. Speaking of crazy, Gary Busey is the cookie. What more do you need for a bad flick? How about a sequel. Don't ask.

2. Midnight Movie (2008) - A screening of a 1970’s horror film goes horribly wrong when the killer from the film comes out of the movie to continue his rampage on those in the theater. Bad acting, bad effects, bad, bad, bad. Stay away!

1. The Happening (2008) - M. Night Shyamalan directed the worst horror film of the decade, hands down, and gave us a glimpse of what would have happened if Dirk Diggler became a science teacher instead of a porn star. With acting that made you feel like it was a direct-to-DVD release instead of a Hollywood budgeted film, this one was barely watchable, and definitely deserve its props at the top of the list.

There you have it. The top 10 worst films of the decade. Agree? Disagree? Have your say below and pick your worst horror films of the past ten years.
