Horror is a genre of fiction; it is not something you can apply to anything that is bad. For that we have the words "horrible" and, much less commonly and a little more specific, "horrific". Since each of those has three syllables, you would have to use them like this:

horrible
more horrible
most horrible

The best way to apply this to a horror movie would be to kind of get around it and say something like "the movie that is the most focused on being a horror film".

Technically, if you're describing a movie and you say "most horror", you could get away with it grammatically; but this would sound very unusual, and most people on the street would just use "horrible" or get around it some other way.
