10 Most Laughable Monster Movies

1. The Sharktopus

This one absolutely has to take the first place. It's new and modern, and has no excuse for being as damn trashy as it is. Even Sharknado is better than this thing. Yes, I am aware that SyFy is producing a movie as ridiculous as this on purpose, but come on. Does the acting really have to be so wooden? The dialogue looks like a conversation between two logs. Even though a movie is actively trying to be bad, that doesn't mean it has to suck on absolutely all points. The plot - as incoherent as it is - can hardly be followed, but there are several elements that deserve a special mention. The relationship between the crazy scientist and his daughter, for example. The way he massages her could possibly be filed under "sexual harassment" if she wasn't related to him. Other than that, there's also the fact that the scientists could have detonated the explosives implanted in the creature's head, but didn't. No special reasoning behind this, they just didn't. Perhaps you're more interested in how did this thing even escape? Well, the smartasses let it out on some random drug traffickers to see how it works, not being aware how could anything go wrong with this plan. Of course, it escapes and goes on a low-budget CGI rampage on the poor unsuspecting tourists. Come on, this is not so bad it's good. It's so bad that it's even worse. Sharktopus marked a new level of badness for the monster movies - it has actually been proven that it reduces your IQ to the room temperature for a couple of hours. You have been warned.
