15 Recent Horrors You Should Avoid This Halloween

2. Yoga Hosers

The Thing 2011

The least 'horror' thing on this list, Kevin Smith's Yoga Hosers will inevitably trick at least a few unwitting unfortunates into a viewing through its genre trappings. First - being a sequel of sorts to the ridiculous but entertaining Tusk. Secondly, its villains being a supernatural race of sentient Nazi bratwurst set on the deaths of our plucky heroines - best friends Colleen and Colleen.

There's one joke in Yoga Hosers - the Canadian use of the word 'aboot', and that's roughly it. The rest is Johnny Depp reprising his awful Guy LaPointe act, a Nazi doing dodgy pop-culture impressions from years ago, and Kevin Smith as a Nazi Bratwurst (Bratzi, geddit). Smith gets a bad rap these days, but there's no defending Yoga Hosers. It's aboot as bad as it gets.

Go for Tusk instead: at least there's a Walrus man in that, and it actually manages to be both amusing and chilling, at times.
