The Worst of 2013.

The 9 WORST FILMS of 2013.

It's odd. Usually, there are ten films that I hate strongly enough to immortalize in whatever shame a list like this instills. But I sincerely couldn't find ten films worthy of my contempt. There were a lot of flawed films that had enough redeeming facets to pull them out of consideration for this list, so I'm stuck with just the nine, in ascending order of awfulness.


09) Texas Chainsaw 3D
08) The Last Days on Mars
07) Fright Night 2: New Blood
06) Escape Plan
05) Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters
04) Free Birds
03) A Good Day To Die Hard
02) G.I. Joe Retaliation
01) A Haunted House
