10 Terrible Horror Movies With ONE Incredible Scene
7. The Sliding Door - Thir13en Ghosts
13 Ghosts is a 1960 horror made by B-movie guru and Rosemary's Baby producer, William Castle. 41 years later, first-time director Steve Beck decided he wanted to remake the film, only he was going to use a mixture of numbers and letters for its title.
What a maverick.
Thir13en Ghosts ended up turning a measly profit and garnering mostly poor reviews from the press. This story of a group of people trapped in a maze-like house with various spirits lacked any sort of bite. To top it all off, people complained that its strobe lighting effects were liable to cause seizures, which is not the sort of publicity you want on your first film.
The one thing anyone who has seen Thir13en Ghosts remembers about it is the death of lawyer Ben Moss (JR Bourne).
After standing in the wrong place at the wrong time, Moss is viciously cut in half widthways when a thin glass door slices through him. The audience doesn't know anything is wrong until the front half of Moss slides down the glass, leaving a bloody trail in its wake and revealing the full gruesome extent of his demise.
