It’s more likely for a bad movie to have bad quotes due to its overall, but even great movies can have their fair share of terrible quotes.

When a movie ends, it is essential that it close on a high note. Or at least, a note that corresponds with the film’s story, themes, and characters. There are some films, such as Rogue One or The Lone Ranger, that have middling beginnings or bad story beats but can be redeemed thanks to a great climax or ending moment. There are some films that just plain stink all the way through. And then there are those who showcase promising potential but are let down thanks to disappointing endings.

In the century since then, cinema has come a long way, and the things that terrify audiences have come just as far. This century in particular has seen a marked shift in horror cinema. Mid-century classics like Psycho and Halloween explored the raw and simple terror of the boogeyman. The 80s and 90s reveled in gratuitous gore that audiences ate up.
