Over the past few years, specifically the last couple years, with films like Midsommar
and Hereditary, we have been shown that there are still quite a few original stories needing
to be told.
However, although there are good movies hidden like a gem in the sand, there are still a
ton of awful ones that people just won’t seem to stop distributing.
So today on Top 5 Scary Videos, I’m going to be counting down our list of the Top 5
Worst Horror Movies You Should Never Watch - Part 3.
Before we begin, be sure to stick around until the end of the video where I’ll be responding
to some of your comments.
And with that, let’s jump in.
5 The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence) Now, that preview makes you think this film
could in fact be somewhat passable, right?
Well, you’re wrong.
I just haven’t shown you the 30+ human centipede sequence yet.
Now, if you have watched the first or second Human Centipede movies, then you’ll know
exactly what you’re in for.
Gross-out visuals, hell-bent on topping their predecessor.
Now, many didn’t expect Tom Six to return for Human Centipede 3, especially after the
barrage of hate and many angrily vacating the theatre during the screenings of the first
two movies.
Yet, here he is.
Now, it may be hard to believe, but this third film is drastically more horrific than the
first two, and Dieter Laser returns once more as the demented one in charge, however, this
time as Bill Boss, the sadistic warden of a Texas Prison which is failing.
What descends is something truly disturbing and stomach-turning, with Variety even stating,
I quote, “Tom Six’s, largest-scaled and most lamentable entry yet in the gross-out
horror series manages to be completely obnoxious even before the gross stuff kicks in.”
Surprisingly, Hollywood legend Eric Roberts made an appearance in the movie -- I guess
he’ll accept any role at this point.
The entire film is a horror gimmick, that was dead upon arrival.
The film entirely lacks substance, cinematic fortitude, and story-telling value, instead,
all it has to show is a solid 18% on Rotten Tomatoes.
4 Blood Diner (1987) This trainwreck was released back in 1987,
and follows two brothers who are entrusted by their uncle to uphold the ritualistic cannibalism
of the ancient cult of Sheetar.
In order to do so, they have to prepare a feast of sacrifice for the resurrection of
their goddess.
Yeah, it felt dumb even saying that.
However, the two brothers are not alone in the task, they are joined by the animated
brain and genitals of their uncle.
I really wish I was joking.
They go on to kill unsuspecting women in an attempt to get all the required body parts
needed for a blood feast to resurrect their Egyptain Goddess.
Now, what is truly baffling is that this film holds a 50% approval, however, this is based
on 5 reviews.
With one reviewer stating, “I had a blast watching Blood Diner.
It is funny, full of some excellent death scenes, and is just a lot of fun to watch
in general.”
-- Umm, I wildly disagree, but to each their own.
The film literally has a scene which shows the two brothers attend a topless aerobics
class and gun down everyone in the place.
Of course there had to be unnecessary nudity.
A truly terrible horror movie can’t exist without it.
Right?
3 The Beast of Yucca Flats (1961) This film is honestly a joke, and perhaps
one of the worst things I have ever seen.
Released in 1961, and directed by Coleman Francis, yeah, dude has a last name for his
first name, and first name for his last name.
Baffling.
Anyway, the film follows a defecting Soviet scientist who is hit by a nuclear explosion
near Yucca Flats and roams around as a beast.
Because, of course it wouldn’t kill you, no, just mutate you.
Now, some of the films on our list, including this one, gained notoriety for being featured
on Mystery Science Theatre 3000 which, for those who don’t know, was an American television
series which followed evil scientists who forced a host and a bunch of captive robots
watch bad “B” movies, and forced to comment on them in order to remain sane.
It’s comical, and introduced us to some of the worst of the worst.
Which has been a blessing and a curse.
From the off the movie was doomed to fail -- it starred Tor Johnson, a former wrestler,
and the movie was filmed in silent, with voice overs and sound effects added later.
Yeah.
So, as you would expect, the result was something truly horrendous -- a movie where the picture
and sound in no way synch up, and the characters only speak when there faces are off camera.
The action scenes are laughable, and the effects are atrocious, even for the 60’s.
Honestly, there’s not much to say about this film, other than it’s bad, it's just
really, really bad.
2 Creepshow 3 (2006) Now, I’m sure some will argue with me about
this number, because Creepshow seems to have one dedicated and passionate fanbase, however,
I do not exist in that fanbase, and have no problem sh*ting all over this movie.
Released in 2006, Creepshow 3 is the second sequel to Creepshow which was released all
the way back in 1982, and features five new tales of horror: “Alice”, “The Radio”,
“Call Girl”, “The Professor’s Wife”, and “Haunted Dog”.
All bad, all unworthy of your time.
Now, the fanbase around Creepshow has always been loud and intense, and that is because
it was built by George Romero and Stephen King, two horror giants.
The success of the first two films even led King and Romero to the small screen for Tales
From the Darkside.
And, 20 years later, along came Creepshow 2, and then, out of the mud crawled Creepshow
3, a sequel which was supposed to titillate and terrifying audiences.
And guess what?
It did neither of those things.
It performed so terrible, it received 0% on Rotten Tomatoes.
That’s right.
Not one person that it was deserving of a rating.
Now, many credit that lackluster performance due to King and Romero stepping away from
the project, probably for the best honestly.
The film tried it’s hardest to bank on the fan popularity of the franchise, but alas,
the writers and directors had almost zero knowledge of what makes for an effective horror
movie.
All in all,the film is a mishmash of cringe, special effects, and sloppy character development.
Honestly, the character development almost doesn’t even exist.
And, of course, don’t get me started on the laughable vignettes that attempt to link
together all of the short films in this anthology.
1 Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966) Now, I should begin by saying that this film
as an overall rating over 1.9/10 on imdb, yeah.
That’s how fantastic this movie is.
1.9.
If you’re unfamiliar, which I’m sure a lot of you will be, this film was released
in 1966, and follows a family who get lost on the road and stumble upon a hidden, underground,
devil-worshiping cult led by the fearsome Master and his servant Torgo.
Now, you may think that plot doesn’t sound all bad, right?
Just you wait.
The film stars no one of merit, I know this because there imdb pages don’t have pictures
and that in itself speaks volumes.
The film did in fact receive a lot of attention, and in retrospect, I think this is why it
received the high rating it did, because honestly, it deserves much worse.
To begin, Manos: The Hands of Fate, literally translates to “Hands: The Hands of Fate”.
Yeah, I’m not joking.
And this is all thanks to the writer, director, editor, and star of the film, Harold P. Warren,
who alleged that anyone could make a good horror film -- but I’m guessing he just
chose not to?
Now, this isn’t one of those films that it’s so bad it’s good.
It’s so bad, it’s bad, and then bad again.
Horror Freak News even stated, “It isn’t one of those flicks that happens to be so
wretched that it’s actually enjoyable, it’s just...wretched.”
Shots fired.
Now, following the release of the film, the creator either had a wake up call, or was
feeling the heat, because Warren quickly claimed that he felt Manos was the worst film ever
made, and he suggested that it might make a passable comedy if it were to be re-dubbed.
Just give up, nothing can salvage this trainwreck.
Well, there we have it!
Do you guys agree with our list?
Were there any terrible horror movies that we missed?
Leave us all your thoughts and feelings in the comments down below and perhaps we can
do a part 4.
Before I go though, I just want to respond to a few comments from one of our last videos,
Top 5 Scary Books That Should Be Turned Into Horror Movies.
Courtney Pie “Lucy always reads a handful of comments and Jack reads ONE, if any at
all, and then rushes off.”
-- Whoa, shots fired.
Imma have to talk to Jack about this.
Alucard Vladimir said “I am so glad I watched this because I’ve been looking for the name
of the one novel I read when I was young and now I know it, thanks Lucy.
Haunted.
Again you’re amazing Lucy.”
-- You're very welcome.
I had also forgotten the name of the book until researching this list.
I’m thinking about revisiting it.
The Juice Beetle said “This channel needs a new host.”
-- Well then, no fun videos for you.
MamaBear said “Lucy I loved this video...What about “The Divine Comedy of Dante’s Inferno”
I would love to see that in a movie.
Please read this in your next video please.”
-- Done!
That book is great, and terrifying, and disturbing.
It may be a little too much to be turned into a movie, but I like where your heads at.
And on that disturbing note, if you haven’t already, be sure to give this video a big
thumbs up, subscribe, and turn on notifications so you never miss another scary vid.
