10 Film Sequels That Made Fans Rage Quit

Poor Pinhead never achieved the popularity of his mates Freddy or Michael Myers, but he became a cult horror icon based on the first film alone. Part three attempted to turn him into more of a campy villain, with mixed results.

Bloodline pretty much crashed the series, though, despite the intriguing story. The film has three time periods, following the guy who created the puzzle box, a modern-day descendent and yet another ancestor in the future, who wants to destroy Pinhead once and for all.

The ambiguous idea is let down by a painfully low-budget, and the studio taking it out of the director's hands and hacking it to bits; hence the Alan Smithee credit. Audiences weren’t sticking around for more and the series then descended into straight to video hell, where only the most masochistic would bother to rent them.

2017 will see the arrival of the tenth entry Judgement, a film that appears to have been shot for around a tenner.
