10 Most Insufferable Movies Since 2000
9. Alone In The Dark
The Abkani, a race believed to have developed the ability to move between worlds, inexplicably vanished from the Earth ten thousand years ago. Then in 1969, one Professor Hudgens attempted to breed Abkani creatures with twenty orphans before being shut down by Bureau 713, a government paranormal investigation division.
Fast forward to the present and one of those orphans, Edward Carnby (Christian Slater), a former employee of Bureau 713, is attacked by a seemingly unkillable assailant after coming into possession of an Abkani artefact. The thug is of course under orders from Hudgens, who is preparing to unleash Xenos, Abkani creatures that can only exist in darkness. Or something.
That's just the first 20 minutes of Alone In The Dark, a movie so astonishingly inept in its storytelling, it could only have been cobbled together by Uwe Boll. Interested in car chases and CG creatures and absolutely nothing else, Boll turns in a lumbering mess that has a real shot at being the worst video game adaptation of all time.
