5. Van Helsing
Van Helsing came along at a time where CGI really, really began to overshadow the rest of the things in the frame - like, you know, the actors and the story and all the stuff that wasn't created on a computer. Not that we've moved on or anything. This is the second Stephen Sommer movie to make this list (the first was
The Mummy), and although it wasn't very good, there was definitely something about it that make me think: "Yeah, maybe this could've been good. Shame it's really sh*tty." Hollywood is obviously thinking along the same lines. Yes, the same guys who are remaking
The Mummy have also set their cites on Van Helsing, too, presumably as a result of some long-standing feud with Stephen Sommers where they swore vengeance against his filmography and vowed to remake every single one of his movies. It's rumoured that Tom Cruise of all people is considered putting on a brimmed hat, growing some facial hair and generally looking in need of a good wash, but he hasn't really spoken out about it in a while. Still, this movie isn't even 10-years-old - I'm not sure it's remake time. Yet.
Will It Suck? The odds are in favour of this not being very good.
