10 Awful Movies Stranger Things Actors Want Us To Forget

10. Charlie Heaton (Jonathan) - Shut In

There is no question that Charlie Heaton is a wonderful actor. The character of Jonathan Byers in Stranger Things could have come across as creepy but Heaton's portrayal made him endearing and compassionate. Also, Heaton has a knack for the American accent since most viewers haven't a clue he hails from Yorkshire.

But despite his skills, Heaton has struck out in the movie world. The New Mutants was terrible. No Future tanked. However, his worst movie has to be Shut In. In the horror flick, Heaton plays a teenager called Stephen, who's been left in a vegetative state after being involved in a car accident. When his carer decides to put him in a home, she notices strange occurrences with her other patients and wonders if there's more to Stephen that he's letting on.

First off, Shut In has the most obvious twist ever. (You probably figured it out just by reading the synopsis.) Even without this predictable twist, Shut In is let down by its plodding pace, cliched characters, and convoluted plot. It's filled with a slew of terrific actors but, thanks to the abysmal dialogue, none of them have a chance to showcase their talents.
