Meh: Horror

Movies I wasn't in love with, but ones I didn't absolutely hate. Somewhere in them was redeeming value of at least some degree.

This received a ton of hype, and I understand why, but after a decent first act this just didn't have me interested. Why make such stereotypical characters for most and then have one break the mold but not really do much?

This was awful. This is bordering on going into the movies i DID NOT like section.

4. Doghouse (2009)

Poor man's "Shaun of the Dead". Has the cute guy from "Severance" in it, but even his brand of acting isn't enough to give this movie any charm.

5. Vile (2011)

Votes: 6,603

Standard torture horror. A bit too much sexism and racism for my liking though. Stoner boy was cute.

6. Almost Human (2013)

Unrated | 80 min | Horror, Sci-Fi, Thriller

40 Metascore

Votes: 3,460 | Gross: $0.01M

God this started out SOOOO good. First 20 minutes are stellar.

This movie falls to pieces in the acting department. It feels like the director hired his family for the supporting cast. And it was hard to feel sorry for the "manboy hero" (trademark TJ) when he just kept wandering around the movie lingering in scenes a tad too long.

7. Seconds Apart (2011)

R | 89 min | Horror, Thriller

Seth and Jonah are twins with a dangerous ability: telekinesis. Things spiral out of control as their classmates die one by one. But jealousy soon divides them and they can no longer trust each other leading to a battle against themselves.

Director: Antonio Negret | Stars: Orlando Jones, Edmund Entin, Gary Entin, Samantha Droke

Votes: 6,422

Twins? check. Sexy Twins? check. Sexy Twins from "Rest Stop"? check. An African American lead in a non-stereotypical role? check. Weak story? check. Meh ending? check.

8. Raised by Wolves (2014)

Not Rated | 76 min | Horror

When a group of friends come across an abandoned house in the barren desert, what follows is a terrifying tale of evil possession causing the friends to slowly turn against each other.

Director: Mitchell Altieri | Stars: Monty Geer, Leore Hayon, Michael Hudson, Hassan Mahmoud

Another movie that started out with gusto and then tripped over itself. This one had me for about an hour. The last half hour tries to be "Blair Witch" without enough of the ambiance to pull it off. I'd rather they had left the entity(s) faceless.

9. Carriers (2009)

PG-13 | 84 min | Action, Adventure, Drama

As a lethal virus spreads globally, four friends seek a reputed plague-free haven. But while avoiding the infected, the travelers turn on one another.

11. Willow Creek (2013)

62 Metascore

A man and his girlfriend camp in the woods to capture firsthand evidence of Bigfoot.

Director: Bobcat Goldthwait | Stars: Alexie Gilmore, Bryce Johnson, Laura Montagna, Bucky Sinister

Votes: 12,845

I do not care about Bigfoot.

The writing and acting in this were stellar. Amazing job by both leads. Plus you get to see some male nudity while the female stays clothed, and we're talking full body nudity here. It's rare.

The story itself and the last 15 minutes ruin this movie. Bobcat was on to something and then lost his imagination or budget in the woods.

12. The Hills Run Red (2009 Video)
