12 Actors Who Did Career Worst Work In 2017
6. Jennifer Jason Leigh (Amityville: The Awakening)
Much like Tulip Fever, the latest Amityville movie was originally shot over three years ago, with reshoots taking place last year after some disastrous test screenings.
The film, which went straight-to-video in many territories, sees recent Oscar-nominee Jennifer Jason Leigh playing the mother of a family that moves into 112 Ocean Avenue, the infamously haunted Amityville house.
Unlike many actors on this list, Leigh doesn't have a lot of critical clunkers to her name, and so it's hard to imagine what possessed her (sorry) to appear in such a generic, boring horror movie which gave her so little of interest to do. It can't have been the money, because the film was clearly scraped together on a shoestring budget.
The saddest thing about her work here is that she just disappears into the background and is totally forgettable, when usually she's an easy highlight of just about any film she appears in.
