The favourite subject of every horror/sci-fi lover - discussing the creatures that appear in all the universes thrown at us. They have the ability to be awesome and fear-inducing, but if mistreated, they come out as lame plot machines instead.

That creature is the synonym for the slither of the night; it's absolutely terrifying on a physical and psychological level, making the viewer extremely uncomfortable in their seat. That is the boogeyman done right. If a monster movie doesn't have a 'proper' monster, there is nothing left to carry such a flick into greatness.

In this article, we will take a look at the absolute worst of the many available monster movies. There will be some old and some modern ones, all connected with their genuine lack of scares and the fact that they are laughable rather than frightening.
