10 Brilliant Moments In Terrible Recent Films
That awful final X-Men movie actually did something right!
Though we are undoubtedly living in a fantastic time for cinema - with blockbuster projects delivering yearly and high-calibre Oscar contenders now dropping on Netflix - not every movie sticks the landing when it comes to its overall quality.
Whether its down to a severe lack of clear direction, franchise fatigue or just a painfully bad idea, many of us have been forced to sit through our fair share of high profile duds in the last couple of years.
However, even in the most rotten of features a slice of cinematic gold can often be found.
Sure, these pictures won't be popping up in many 'greatest films of the decade' lists, but not every scene made you feel like clawing out your eyes and shoving your head into a popcorn box. Some were actually pretty darn good and were just unfortunate to be surrounded by two hours of mind-numbing crap.
Heart-stopping train rides, the epic arrivals of legendary characters and genetically altered dino-monsters all invaded some of the worst films in recent memory and its about time these stellar moments got the praise and respect they undoubtedly deserve.
Never forget; Hellboy rode a f*cking dragon in 2019.
10. Hellboy Rides A Dragon - Hellboy
After just over a decade of waiting, Hellboy fans finally got their wish in 2019...sort of.
The big red badass would now be able to let rip like only he knew how in a full blown rated 'R' feature. Yet, despite the increase in violent gore and bad language, this reboot suffered from some disastrously bad CGI effects and a seriously weak plot.
However, David Harbour's performance as Anung Un Rama was widely celebrated and - as you'd expect - he was at the centre of undoubtedly the greatest moment in this blazing ball of badness.
Moments after Merlin informs Hellboy that he is in fact the 'Destroyer of All Things', the half-human/half-demon takes hold of the legendary sword Excalibur. Hellboy then sees exactly what he is capable of in a vision.
Riding a god damn demon dragon and wielding a blazing Excalibur, a fully horned Hellboy is shown massacring the human race and, well, destroying all things.
Though the rest of this demonic-dud didn't live up to the awesome Guillermo Del Toro features which came before it, it's hard not to salute the sight of everyone's favourite foul-mouthed paranormal investigator embracing his hellish roots on the big screen.
