    Astronaut Johnny Depp and Charlize Theron star in this stupid update of Rosemary's Baby.
  170. Movie DetailsBordello of Blood (1996) CRAP  ComedyHorrorWith Sex/Nudity
    Another Cryptkeeper movie. This time a funeral parlor moonlights as a vampire whorehouse. Angie Everhart!
  171. Movie DetailsDeep Rising (1998) CRAP  HorrorSci-Fi
    A giant squid attacks a luxurious cruise ship. At least jewel-thief Famke Janssen doesn't suck.
  172. Movie DetailsDisappointments Room, The (2016) CRAP  Horror

    Boobs, beer and pot. The characters are so annoying that you wish they'd die faster.
  177. Movie DetailsGhosts of Mars (2001) CRAP  HorrorSci-Fi
    Unintentional comedy, starring Natasha Henstridge and Ice Cube, in which Mars colonists become possessed.
  178. Movie DetailsHaunting, The (1999) CRAP  Horror

    Neve Campbell and David Arquette return for the final chapter of this slasher trilogy.
  188. Movie DetailsSharknado (2013) CRAP  HorrorTV Shows

    A killed mercenary returns to walk the Earth after making deal with the devil.
  190. Movie DetailsSpecies II (1998) CRAP  HorrorSci-FiWith Sex/Nudity
