10 Worst Horror Movies Of 2018

9. The Nun

The Nun 2018
Warner Bros.

This year's entry into the Conjuring Cinematic Universe (that's the horror equivalent of Marvel's interconnecting superhero movies, for those wondering) was not a good time. Seeming to forget exactly what made the first movies so successful and walking down the shameful path of the first Annabelle spin off, The Nun is a tired ghost story that's been seen and done before, in much better and innovative ways.

It isn't enough to just have a creepy premise and play it out down spooky corridors in these Hollywood horror blockbusters, but that's exactly what happens for a good hour and a half of screen time. Despite an excellent soundtrack, Corin Hardy leads a predictable narrative that's as thin as it is dark.

Considering the set of gnashers on the titular nun herself, this film is ironically pretty toothless.
