10 More Sci-Fi Horror Movie Fates Worse Than Death

10. Trapped In The Mirror World - Mirrors

Panned by critics and audiences alike, Kiefer Sutherland's Mirrors is an unmitigated disaster of a horror film. Listless performances and a comically nonsensical plot mean that this is a movie going experience that should be avoided at all costs.

With that being said, the 2008 sci-fi horror does possess one of the nastier fates in recent memory. The demon terrorizing Sutherland's Ben Carson and his family within the film inhabits the mirror dimension - a mirrored version of reality accessible through reflected surfaces. Sutherland's character collapses a building on himself and supporting character Anna in the climactic sequence, after she is possessed by said demon.

Mirrors' final twist comes when Ben realizes nobody can see him, after having arduously dragged himself from the rubble. Sutherland's befuddled character suddenly registers that everything is reflected when he notices a name tag written backwards, and the horrifying pieces finally fall into place. Ben died when the building came crashing down and is now trapped alone in the mirror dimension, doomed to forever observe the world without being able to interact with it. The sickening concept of such an endless state of purgatory is an infinitely more harrowing notion than that of a swift demise.

With that being said, the true sci-fi horror fate worse than death from the audience's perspective is being forced to watch 111 minutes of this burning trash fire.
