Ok. That's a lie. The Happening was worse.
But hands down the second worst.

If they were looking to wrap that movie up, they should have just stopped when kathy bates tapped her watch when it stopped. Movie had a lot of promise and wound up falling on it's face IMO. |

| | | | I am a huge fan of the original. Now that I've heard the remake is nothing more than a special effects driven bit of smug propaganda for preaching the far, far, left fringe message of enviornmentalism, where all humans completely suck and we all should die......well I don't think I'm gonna' catch it anytime soon. |

That said, the only way to make this movie suck worse is to see it in iMax, so it's waaaay larger than life suck.
