Every Movie That Received An F CinemaScore Ranked From Worst To Best
14. Darkness (2002)
Five years before he enjoyed significant success with 2007's Spanish found footage hit [REC], Jaume Balagueró was responsible for this Anna Paquin-starring horror bust, following an American family that moves into a haunted house in the Spanish countryside.
You've seen this type of movie dozens if not literally hundreds of times before, and though Balagueró does demonstrate some mild early promise and Paquin gives a not-awful performance, it's ultimately more boring and over-familiar than anything.
It probably didn't help that the film sat on a shelf for over two years after its original Spanish premiere, before Dimension Films chopped it down to a PG-13 rating for the U.S. release. Any edge the original version of the film might've had was evidently sheared away for the mainstream release, not that it's easy to believe the R-rated version was much better.
It won't make you want to totally lose your will to live like some of the previous films on this list, but it sure is dull. Somehow despite all this, it still made $34.4 million at the box office, more than three-times its budget.
