MindCrime Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 In this Top 10 special, we will be doing a non-music theme. For the month of October, we ask you to nominate 2 or 3 scary characters that that you feel are very frightening. They can be from a movie, television show, or book. The same regular rules that go with the top 10s applies here. First week or two is for nominations, then the regular top 10 voting will go on for another week or two or until everybody has their votes in. *Voters may rank between 10-12 choices. For 11: First 8 are ranked with an additional 3 that are worth 1 point each. For 12: First 8 are ranked with 4 additional, however #8 will be worth 2 points instead of 3. Please let us have your nominations now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farin Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 "scary" doesn't have to mean that it's the antagonist or "bad guy", right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skybluesky Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 I got dibs on Norman Bates, please. DAMN IT! I wanted Norman Bates! That's probably the only time that sentence has been uttered by a woman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybluesky Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Since I got beaten to Norman Bates, I want Michael Myers from the original Halloween franchise. In the original 1978 film, Michael Myers had no name and was referred to as he or him, and was billed in the credits as "the shape." The mask the actor wore was a spray painted William Shatner mask.

Shawna Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 the absolutely scariest malevolence in a movie I've ever "seen" was an invisible presence that wreaked havoc in "The Haunting." I don't think there's a way to nominate something like that, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skybluesky Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 Anthony Fremont - It's a Good Life - Twilight Zone One of the scariest, best, and most well known Twilight Zone episodes, it's been parodied in The Simpson's Tree House of Horror, revived in The Twilight Zone movie, and Bill Mumy reprised his role in the updated TV version of The Twilight Zone.

Ombre Vivante Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 Helena Marques ("The Black Queen") from Suspiria: The audience sees very little of her, but the evil aura that envelops the whole school/building is all due to her power as the reigning Black Queen of the triad of witches The wife/Anna and the wife's double/Helen in Possession: She is so wicked, demented, unpredictable, and an absolute manic-hysteric... like the kind of girl I'd date!

RockyRaccoon Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 Kevin Spacey as John Doe in "Seven", one of my favorite movies. One scary-ass serial killer. He did some nasty things. And Heath Ledger as The Joker from "The Dark Knight". Perhaps the scariest, and the best, adaptation of The Joker I've ever seen. Jack Nicholson's was good, but Ledger's was just flat out psychotic.
