Read more: Pride And Prejudice And Zombies (2016)Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2016) is a surprise mash-up horror/romance/drama with comic undertones. It was based on the novel of the same name by Seth Grahame-Smith, (who also wrote the fun Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter).

Read more: Jeepers Creepers 3 (2017)Jeepers Creepers 3 (2017) O.K., I knew this would be a bad idea.

Read more: Jennifer’s Body (2009)We don’t even get to see her body. (Note: I originally wrote this review in 2010. Reviewing the cast now and seeing J.K. Simmons and Chris Pratt listed is hilarious.)
