Often confused with Constructive Criticism, destructive criticism is when a critique is made that does little to open for improvement, but rather attacks the work through fallacious logic or personal bias, and often leads to the weaken rather than strengthen the work. Usually done to attack the creator and not the creation.
It's destructive criticism to demand a happy ending instead of a horrifying ending for an intentionally horrifying film.
