10 Best & 10 Worst Horror Movies Of 2016

1. The Disappointments Room

The Disappointments Room stars Kate Beckinsale as Dana who moves with her husband and young son into a spooky old house following the tragic death of the couple’s infant daughter.

Dana discovers her new house is home to a ‘disappointments room’, a place where the intolerant folk of the olden days would hide away children with disabilities from the rest of the world, and is haunted by the spirit of one of its former inhabitants. Now, horror isn’t exactly the most light-hearted of genres but a movie with a grieving mother and the ghost of a neglected child is grim even for horror.

Beyond its upsetting plot, the film is as much of a disappointment as its title would suggest. Not only did it get a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it also flopped massively at the box office recouping just $2.4 million of its $15 million budget. Even worse, by its third week in cinemas the movie was dropped by all but 36 of the 1,554 theatres screening it which set an all-new record for the highest number of cinemas dropping a terrible movie like a hot potato within a three-week run.
