10 Horror Movie Monster Designs Everyone Hated
2. The Grimcutty - Grimcutty
2022's low-budget horror Grimcutty certainly had potential, revolving as it does around an Internet meme that comes to life and starts killing people, even accepting how absurdly monikered the creature is. However, despite some solid build-up, it all collapses once we get a good, sustained look at the entity, whose bulbous, red-eyed CGI face and elongated limbs are tough not to laugh at.
The design has a profound whiff of an AI mockup that somehow made its way into the final release, but it only gets worse from there. It doesn't help that many horror fans online compared Grimcutty's proportions to Gru from the Despicable Me franchise, and once you've got that in your head, it's basically impossible to take this thing seriously at all.
Again, the movie has effectively tense moments, but the actual creature design itself is such a colossal letdown from which the rest of the film is unable to recover.
