Bad Monsters
That thing from The Thing was pretty bad.
But so is Dr. Moriarty.
Your turn.
A Mole Person, really any one of the Mole People.
And Sleestaks.
C.H.U.D.
Just kidding. Pennywise the Clown.
I dont generly care for Monster Flicks ,
But the
Boggy creek monster Messed me up for a few years when i was young
Sadako from Ringu.
She was human, but monstrous.
I don't usuaully take monsters home with me from the cinema, but I had an episode where I believed she was coming out of my mirror.
Not good.
Therefore bad monster.
Now, of course, if we're talking bad monsters as in they SUCK at being monsters, I'd have to say Godzilla is the stupidest fucking monster ever in the history of man. And they still think he's fer realz and stuff.
Wait.
What?
Godzilla Not Real?
Maybe if you loved him enough, he'd BECOME real.
You silly, that's never worked before! For anyone, not just me!
What about a Godzilla Hobo?
What about a Godzilla Hobo?
Explain yourself, man!
What ABOUT a Godzilla Hobo?
Worst (as in badly wrought) monster evah:
That piece of shit giant spider w/the 'deadlights' from "Stephen King's 'It'", I speak of the NBC miniseries a hundred years ago.
I was a guest of the federal gov't when it came on, and I had mentioned that I wanted to see it, but, it would be months yet before I was out. Popdigr, God love him, sat through four nights of that mini-series, with the VCR remote in hand, pausing the recording for every commercial. I watched it my third night home.
That fucking spider looked exactly like the one they used on "Gilligan's Island", you could almost see the strings.
I don't think I've ever been more disappointed. I boycotted King for years after.
that Chucky bastard. I hate him, and the associate of Anthony Hopkins in "Magic" years before. **shiver**
The Gilligan's Island spider! I forgot about that one.
Oh, but for cheap effect, what about the pig's (?) eyes in the window in the 1979 Amityville Horror? It was just a couple blinking lights! But it scared the crap out of me.
Of course, I was 14, and I've always had a fear of night windows.

Right... Do you remember this scene from the Twilight Zone ?
(Nightmare at 20000 Feet - original was with William Shatner)

are we talking bad as in mean or bad as in badly done?
well, traceur, I was talking about mean but this thread can really go in any direction.
:)

I just saw the original yesterday. SyFy did their Twilight Zone Marathon.
I had to laugh at the monster suit. It looks like a worn out baby snuggie thing.
Ugh. Fucking hate night windows.
You do too?
I've been afraid of them for as long as I can remember. I think the scariest thing on earth would be seeing a face in your window, out in the dark.
As much as I love scary stuff, scary movies...the thought of a real face in my window makes me feel ill.
I don't know...I have a vague recollection in my brain that one of my dad's friends snuck up to our living room window one night and scared me. I could be fantasizing that, but it would explain the fear.
I've even thought about when I win the lottery and build my log home. Many log homes have the giant windows along the front. I imagine electric-powered shades that I can close at night.
I'm on record with my fright at night windows (nicely put - I didn't manage that) and mirrors.
I can't elaborate now.
I have a NW right behind me.
If I type too long I will seriously get The Fear.
I do not believe in the afterlife, spirits, spooks, ghosts, afrits, haints, UFOs, astral projections, mental telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full trance mediums, the Loch Ness monster or the theory of Atlantis.
But night windows and mirrors and reflections of things that are not there scare the bejesus out of me. Amen.
I had a wendy house in my bedroom as a kid too. It had those plasticy windows. *shudder*

And why was that a pig in the window on Amityville? I don't recall the reasoning there.
I can't find a clip except for the trailer.
