10 Best & 10 Worst Horror Movies Coming In 2017
8. Death House
Featuring a cast of noted horror icons including Kane Hodder, who played Jason Vorhees in the later instalments of the Friday the 13th franchise, Tony Todd of Candyman fame and scream queen Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator and more recently, We Are Still Here), Death House – penned by another icon, the late Gunnar Hansen, a.k.a. Texas Chainsaw Massacre’s Leatherface – has been dubbed ‘The Expendables of the horror genre’. But considering the largely unimpressed reviews the action flick received, we’re not entirely sure that’s a good thing.
Sadly, a notable cast does not always a great film make, especially when the storyline – which in this case focuses on two federal agents visiting a secret prison/government testing facility housing the most evil criminals in the world who must fight to escape when a power cut triggers a jailbreak – is as weak as Death House’s.
