10 Worst Effects In Sci-Fi Movies
4. Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet is a dystopian sci-fi romp starring Mila Jovovich as Violet, our protagonist who has been infected with a vampire like disease in a cyberpunk future that immediately sentences those infected with the disease to death.
The titular Violet is one of these "hemophages" being hunted down by the government and has banded together a resistance of similarly infected to rebel against this anti-vampire regime. Without getting too into the nitty-gritty, there's a pretty contrived plot involving a clone, a possible cure and just the right amounts of gratuitous violence.
But we're here to talk about the VFX, and by golly there is plenty to pick apart here. Almost all of the exterior shots are so painfully obvious green-screen while every other character is given an almost otherworldly blur around their entire bodies like an early-era dodgy Instagram filter.
But the real icing on the cake comes in the form of a hilariously awful police chase scene early on, boasting yet more terrible green screens, weird particle physics and blatant defiance of the laws of gravity that would make Isaac Newton wish the apple had knocked him out for good.
