Favorite Movie Monster

My personal favorite is The Dark Overlord of the Universe from Howard the Duck.

This is of course in this true form after he is released from jennings. I feel that the old stop motion they used and the texture of his puppet added a sort of creepy realism that CGI can't seem to recreate, at least not yet. Also all of the camera angles they capture him in makes him appear as if hes at the end of a very long tunnel and the moment he says "there is no escape" I feel as if hes going to come get me. Adding to his look all the creepy twitching hook arms pulsating back and forth adds a sort of arachnophobic style that makes me feel as if hes crawling up my skin.

What is your favorite movie monster?

Chucky the killer doll.He scared the crap out of me on the 90's when i was 6-9.

The werewolves in The Howling. Made every other horror monster look tame for me after that. The slow build up along with the claustraphobic shots and weird local folk made the film unsettling to watch and this was without the werewolves coming in.

That's a cool picture. I'll go with this even though I've never seen the movie. :P

I used to have nightmares of those Critters..
The Thing creeped me out a lot with the dog scene.

Jason and Pinhead.

he'll aways have a place in my heart as the coolest movie monster

Really though, it's probably The Thing since you never knew who was friend or foe, creating a very paranoid type of atmosphere in the film.

For sure! It's just so well made, it's brilliant.

I think we all just need a hug, who's first?

:lol: True.

I've always been partial to Jason Voorhees...spazzx625

Jason isn't a monster, he's just misunderstood. :P

Well The Thing if that really does count.

But I would go with Cloverfield when I think of monster movies I think of big giant things.

I agree, the movie would have been much better if you didn't see the monster at all.

I loved the kraken in: Clash of the Titans. I am well aware of the remakein a few month. The Terminator is a great monster as well, even though it is a droid etc.

These terrifying atrocities in Night of the Lepus. :cry:

Same here. Especially the Monster Island ones where he can slide across the field on his tail to drop kick the other monsters.

Crap, scratch that. Upon further review I'm saying Frankenstein.Second_Rook

My bowels released from a combination of utter terror and me laughing so hard, excuse me as I go change.

Good ol' Dracula. Man, he was badass.Setsa

Pfft.

Dracula sleeps with a light on because he's afraid Count Orlok will get him.
