3. House Of The Dead (2003)
Uwe Boll strikes again, this time with House of the Dead. Zombies and movies admittedly work well together, so this one had some potential to be worthwhile. Unfortunately, that potential was dispatched with the efficiency of a leather-clad raver wielding an automatic weapon. (House of the Dead asserts that they’re VERY efficient.)
Based on the arcade shooter game franchise of the same name, House of the Dead tries desperately to blend action and horror. Not only does it fall short, but it has one of the most ridiculous scripts of all time, and seems as though it was designed in full by a 12-year-old boy. Surprisingly, it didn’t impress critics.
With a score of just 3% on Rotten Tomatoes, House of the Dead is inarguably a terrible movie. Its plot is both bafflingly nonsensical and surprisingly formulaic, and its characters are entirely forgettable. Wooden dialogue and laughable performances make this one of Uwe Boll’s worst – and that’s really saying something.
