10 Recent Horror Movies That Pissed Everyone Off

10. Until Dawn (2025)

Watching a movie/TV adaptation of one of your favourite video games has always been a gamble. At best, you'll get something that understands the source material and does a decent job of exploring it, but at worst, you'll get something that feels downright offensive and completely misses the point. Then there's 2025's Until Dawn, which barely even qualifies as "missing the point," because it is so far removed from the point you'd think it was actively running away from it.

To be clear, this isn't a bad adaptation; it's barely even an adaptation to begin with, as Until Dawn is all but a brand name slapped onto a movie with little relation to the source, outside of the lore and world. It is not a retelling of the game's narrative, as it changes the characters, setting, premise, and more, with only a few similarities baked into the movie's DNA. 

As such, it comes as no surprise that those who went into it looking forward to a violent retelling of the beloved game came out angry. Plus, it's also a trash film, so those who've never even heard of the video game didn't like it either.
