*A Very Special Kind of Vile* I swear no film has so thoroughly angered me like this one has. To even try and begin to express how insulting this film is would require page upon page of review space.

*A Very Special Kind of Pathetic* Never before has so much heart..been put into something so utterly pathetic and unprofessional. At the beginning this movie shows a good deal of promise as a well thought-out low budget film. But don't let that fool you. Within 15 minutes the entire movie becomes an abomination. The actors are constantly on the verge of falling asleep and the plot can barely stand against the most basic arguements.

*A Very Special Kind of Annoying* An entire film that tediously drags and shoves it's viewer along to one massive let-down. Throughout the film hardly anything worth mentioning occurs. I believe the sheer reason anyone has ever heard of this film is because of the incredible celebrity cast. Unfortunately every single talented actor is quick dispensed with. In the end we are left to deal with the acting talents of overrated hacks and cheap comedians. Infact I hate this film to such a great extent I shall spoil the plot. NO ONE GETS THE MONEY.

*A Very Special Kind of Boring* The term "padding" or the phrase "taking time to establish" hardly begins to describe the drab dullness of this overrated piece of trash. With the exception of the sets and visual effects there is nothing good this film has to offer.
5. Lake Placid 3 (2010 TV Movie)
R | 93 min | Action, Adventure, Comedy

*A Very Special Kind of Unspecial and cliched* This film uses every obnoxious cliche known to the horror genre. Not a drop of originality to be seen anywhere. The only unique thing about this movie is how poorly it does employ all of these themes.
6. Extra Terrestrial Visitors (1983)
84 min | Drama, Fantasy, Horror
A young boy in the woods discovers a lovable alien...or is it?
Director: Juan Piquer Simón | Stars: Ian Serra, Nina Ferrer, Susana Bequer, Sara Palmer

*A Very Special Kind of...KILL THE DARN KID ALREADY* This film is an abomination. Spanish made, further bastardized by a desire to capitalize off the success of "ET" The actors, not only are incompetent, but go so far to be PAINFUL to watch. The evidence of having various plots PLANNED and then hastily slapped together is present throughout the film. Ever scene with the child is painful and utterly idiotic in every regard. I hate this movie. So. Much. Not only does it lack in even the most base entertainment, it's ability to provide any sort of substance is nonexistent. It's an insult to the intelligence on every level.

After seeing the original, which was at most.....dull. I decided, for some obscure reason, to watch the remake. This remake was despicable. I can not think of a film that has, in such continuous scenes, infuriate me. Every cast member is frustrating, those that aren't screaming and yelling every minute are conniving to backstab the others. While in the original I had some interest in seeing HOW the swarm of the undead would be weathered out, I prayed that each and every person in this film would be torn limb from limb, in silence. I am not a horror fan; but I don't know how you can make such a relatively simple, and successfully tried concept, so utterly awful.
