20 AWFUL Horror Movie Moments You Wish You Could Forget
8. Truth Or Dare: The Grinning Ghosts
Someone needs to stop director Jeff Wadlow. In the decade since he killed the Kick-Ass franchise, he's inexplicably been given the reins to several other projects and none of them have worked out. Fantasy Island is his worst one yet, but he made another infamous work in 2018, one which features a creative choice so misjudged it's a mystery as to how it ever got past a team of producers.
More specifically, Truth or Dare - which sees some teens playing a deadly supernatural game of Truth or Dare, a good premise which deserved a better movie - features all those grinning ghosts. Whenever someone is possessed by the villainous demon, they do the goofiest smile imaginable and say "Truth or dare?" Well, if this was meant to be scary, it absolutely wasn't. It was unintentionally funny, and most screenings probably had quite a bit of laughter, but it certainly didn't have the effect the filmmakers were going for.
And really, this should've been obvious. It's difficult to understand how anyone thought this was a good idea. Hollywood is a mysterious place sometimes.
