Yeah, Englund is the man. Def one of my favoriite actors of all time. And he is the sweetest guy in real life. And I do agree, Michael and Jason are brutes but Freddy will get them in their dreamz!

OK, so a horror icon I can think of that I reeeeaaaally like and who hasn't been mentioned here is The Cryptkeeper. Hilarious little bugger, and frightening. I'm glad that for the show, they made him look so much different than from the comics and '72 movie. Making him an undead bony creature of fright while retaining the wisecracking attitude of the comics' Crypt-keeper was a really good move. Apparently someone in marketing sought to make The Cryptkeeper for Halloween what Santa Claus is for Christmas—and for a while there in the early to mid '90s, he was. Shame that's fallen out of popularity... I always loved the icon, even as a kid who'd barely seen any Tales from the Crypt episodes (and even then it was always censored syndicated reruns).

I'll throw my vote in for Pyramid Head

Abnormal Freak · 02-28-2011, 01:54 PM

I really hate Pyramid Head's appearances outside of Silent Hill 2. He's specific to that game, to James Sunderland... Shoulda kept it that way. But then westerners got involved with the series... :p

*Krutch* · 02-28-2011, 03:18 PM

I completely agree with you^

But you gotta admit, he totally owned the screen whenever he showed up in the movie

Abnormal Freak · 02-28-2011, 03:33 PM

Yeah, his stuff was some of the least boring in that flick. :p That movie had so much potential, but then they turned a pretty cool "resurrection of the god" story into this awful witch-burning thing, in a town where the siren is a physical siren meant to warn this flock of people of the encroaching darkness. Way to totally obliterate the coolness of Silent Hill, Monsieur Gans and Mister Avery...

At least much of the visuals were there. I enjoyed the movie most during the non-story parts. :p Even if the camera was a bit too kinetic.

I'm not really into those kind of horror movies. Some of the horror movies I enjoy is Resident Evil, and Psycho I - IV.
