Both the original book and its sequel have been adapted into movies starring Jason Statham. The first movie accurately captured the B-level quality of the first book. The second movie continued that feel, and while it honestly wasn’t bad, those who haven’t read the book it was partially based upon will be surprised to know just how different the two are.
The Trench, unlike subsequent Meg sequels, deviated from its B-movie…
From Christopher's list on that were adapted into worse movies.
