20 TERRIBLE Horror Movies With INSANE Endings

15. Dracula 2000

Truth or Dare Ending
Miramax

Dracula 2000 has largely been confined to the trashcan of history - a goofy relic of the fresh nonsense Hollywood thought horror fans actually wanted to see at the turn of the millennium.

In addition to its woeful script and direction, it's also toe-curlingly Matrix-coded from start to finish, as if the "2000" of its title didn't already date it badly enough.

But credit where it's true - the junky vampire flick does stumble over one legitimately compelling idea near the end, where it's revealed that Dracula (Gerard Butler) is actually Judas Iscariot, who has been cursed to live as a vamp as penance for killing Jesus.

Now, nobody's saying that this twist is massively well thought-out, but it does make the prospect of a rewatch more enticing. 

That said, one might keenly wager that nobody outside of the filmmakers has ever bothered to watch Dracula 2000 more than once.

It's yet further proof, though, that even dreadful movies can get things right on occasion.
