20 Movies Since 2010 So Awful They're Actually Harrowing
8. Left Behind
Hello again to Nicolas Cage, who in this movie is unusually subdued and boring, so it's at least a different kind of awful performance. A religious movie which makes every religious person in it look foolish and a thriller lacking in thrills, this involves people randomly disappearing and that's pretty much the entire plot.
Much of the film is set on a plane Nicolas Cage is flying, one populated with unwatchable actors who all speak some of the worst dialogue in recent memory. Despite a suspenseful climax this offers the least-exciting apocalyptic event ever put to film, and sadly sets up a sequel at the end - though mercifully no sequel has appeared.
Every aspect of the film is awful and this is without a doubt the worst film of 2014, which was overall a decent year for films. No matter how intriguing the bad reviews are, stay away. This went direct-to-DVD in the UK, so luckily most audiences here won’t have seen it.
