10 Horror Movies That Instantly Told You They Were Garbage

You'd probably find yourself wondering if you're actually watching a straight-to-DVD knock-off of The Hangover for a split-second here if not for the scare-free intro scene.

Far away from the former Soviet Bloc, this non-Eli Roth threequel takes place in Las Vegas. It doesn't seem even half as scary or convincing as the near Bratislava setting of the original, actually-pretty-good Hostel either.

A sinister fellow by the name of Travis drugs a couple's beers to hand them over for more of the usual sadistic torture one expects from these films. Travis, you see, is a member of Elite Hunting, and is scouting this unlucky, far-from-home pair. The duo wake up in a cell where the wife is dragged away while her doomed husband screams.

On paper, this could've been pretty harrowing and scary but the poor editing and unconvincing acting hammers home just how low budget this lesser known sequel's going to be. It's a bad sign made worse by the cumbersomely developed Vegas bachelor party plot that follows. For those desperate for a cheap gore fix, this film delivers some goods but for those looking for something actually halfway decent, the opening scenes are a rock solid indicator to look elsewhere.
