Ôdishon (1999)
Gory for the sake of being gory
Audition (1999) is one of the dullest, most mindlessly gory Asian horror films I have ever seen. It drags on and on for an hour and a half, so much that you almost forget it belongs to the horror genre, and then suddenly, in the last half an hour, the director dumps a bucketful of meaningless, ugly and overly sexualised torture scenes on the audience. Gore without reason, simply instilled into the film for the sake of cheap shock value. I love the Asian horror genre; this movie is a shameless insult to it. But then, it is a very old movie after all. Maybe back in day it would've sufficed to qualify as a good horror movie.
Pyewacket (2017)
I Dozed Off
Never, and I mean it, never, have I seen a horror movie which managed to put me to sleep, and yet, Pyewacket managed to do the impossible. For 70 out of its total 90 minutes of runtime, the movie drags on and on (and on) about an ugh-mom-you-just-don't-understand-me! Girl and her excruciatingly boring teenage angst. The movie desperately tries to save itself in the last 20 minutes by unconvincingly trying to turn the plot into some form of crude psychological thriller, but fails oh so miserably. Years and years of watching horror movies across many languages and lores, and I think I've finally found the absolute worse to ever have been made.
