THE ANACONDA (2025) Took my daughters and son-in-law to see this movie tonight and laughed harder than I have at any movie in a long time. Jack Black and Paul Rudd absolutely carry this far-fetched tale of amateur filmmakers battling a giant snake in the Amazon delta as they try to remake the 90's classic.  Not a lot of scares but a ton of laughs!  5/5

1. Alone in the Dark (2005)

A chaotic script and incoherent action scenes bury any potential the game adaptation might have had.

2. Hellraiser: Revelations (2011)

A rushed, low‑budget production that feels like a placeholder rather than a real Hellraiser film.

3. Feardotcom (2002)

Its muddled plot and murky visuals make the central mystery nearly impossible to care about.

4. The Fog (2005)

A lifeless remake that strips away the atmosphere and tension that made the original memorable.

5. Halloween: Resurrection (2002)

A gimmicky reality‑TV premise undermines the franchise's tone and turns Michael Myers into a punchline.

6. The Haunting of Molly Hartley (2008)

A teen‑horror setup with no scares, no stakes, and an ending that feels unearned.

7. Prom Night (2008)

A bloodless, tension‑free slasher that feels more like a CW drama than a horror film.

8. Zombie Strippers! (2008)

Its campy premise wears thin quickly, leaving only repetitive jokes and cheap shock value.

9. Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000)

A confused meta‑sequel that abandons the original's strengths for messy psychological chaos.

10. One Missed Call (2008)

A bland remake that replaces J‑horror dread with generic jump scares and flat performances.

11. The Devil Inside (2012)

An infamous non‑ending and found‑footage clichés sink what little tension the film builds.

12. Boogeyman (2005)

A concept with potential is wasted on CGI‑heavy scares and a paper‑thin story.

13. A Sound of Thunder (2005)

Laughably bad CGI and a clunky script derail its time‑travel premise.

14. The Gallows (2015)

A found‑footage slog with unlikable characters and a twist that doesn't justify the journey.

15. Ultraviolet (2006)

Style overwhelms substance in a visually noisy but narratively hollow sci‑fi action film.

16. The Grudge (2019)

A grim, disjointed reboot that mistakes misery for atmosphere and never builds real tension.

17. Jason X (2001)

A knowingly silly entry that leans so hard into camp it loses any sense of horror.

18. Skyline (2010)

Cool creature designs can't save a story that feels like a first draft stretched to feature length.

19. Skinwalkers (2006)

A werewolf movie with weak effects and a plot that never finds momentum.

20. The Butterfly Effect 2 (2006)

A sequel in name only, recycling the premise without emotional weight or originality.

21. Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (2007)

Dark, muddy cinematography and thin characters make the iconic monsters nearly impossible to enjoy.

22. Captivity (2007)

A torture‑porn entry that mistakes cruelty for suspense and never develops its characters.

23. Paranormal Activity 4 (2012)

A tired sequel that adds little to the mythology and delivers few memorable scares.

24. The Return (2005)

A slow, unfocused supernatural thriller that never builds to anything meaningful.

25. Lost Souls (2000)

A dreary, sluggish possession film that confuses moodiness with actual storytelling.

I could probably make a list if I tried. I could make a list if I tried. MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING, THE SOUND OF FREEDOM, and HILLBILLY ELEGY would be so far above (or below) every other title on the list it probably doesn't even make sense for me to continue!

The Amazing Bulk, by far the worst movie I saw in 2025, should be remade with an even smaller budget and even worse acting.

The first 25 of my 10/10 rated movies:

1. The Dark Knight (2008): Often considered the gold standard for superhero films and a masterclass in crime drama.
2. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003): A monumental achievement in filmmaking that swept 11 Oscars.
3. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001): The perfect introduction to Middle-earth; many prefer its pacing and world-building to the sequels.
4. Inception (2010): A rare "original" blockbuster that successfully merged high-concept philosophy with action.
5. Mad Max: Fury Road (2015): Widely regarded as one of the greatest action films ever made for its practical effects and visual storytelling.
6. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002): Celebrated for its expanded world-building and the groundbreaking Battle of Helm's Deep.
7. Interstellar (2014): A sweeping sci‑fi epic that blends emotional storytelling with ambitious scientific concepts.
8. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004): A genre‑bending romance praised for its inventive structure and raw emotional honesty.

10. Gladiator (2000): A modern sword‑and‑sandals classic that reignited the historical epic genre.
11. WALL·E (2008): A near‑silent first act and bold environmental themes make it one of Pixar's most daring films.
12. The Prestige (2006): A meticulously crafted mystery that rewards repeat viewings with its layered narrative.
13. Inglourious Basterds (2009): A revisionist war film known for its tension-filled dialogue and unforgettable performances.
14. Django Unchained (2012): Tarantino's stylish revenge Western that blends sharp humor with explosive action.
15. Up (2009): Beloved for its emotionally devastating opening and heartfelt adventure.
16. Finding Nemo (2003): A visually stunning underwater journey that became one of Pixar's most iconic stories.
17. Joker (2019): A dark character study anchored by a transformative, Oscar-winning performance.
18. Gone Girl (2014): A razor‑sharp thriller that dissects media culture and the complexities of modern relationships.
19. Shutter Island (2010): A psychological mystery that keeps audiences questioning reality until the final frame.
20. Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003): A kinetic, stylized martial‑arts revenge tale packed with some of Tarantino's most iconic imagery.
21. Batman Begins (2005): Credited with redefining the superhero origin story through grounded realism and thematic depth.
22. V for Vendetta (2005): A politically charged dystopian tale that became a cultural symbol of resistance.
23. Guardians of the Galaxy (2014): A vibrant, comedic space adventure that turned obscure characters into fan favorites.
24. The Avengers (2012): A landmark blockbuster that proved a shared cinematic universe could truly work.
