While slasher movies are probably the lowest rung on the horror movie totem pole, I often find them to be the most enjoyable since you can really turn off your brain while watching them and usually know what you're going to get from them. What are your favorites when it comes to slasher "icons"?
Coolest Looking Slasher
Ghostface (Scream Trilogy) [I love the mask and the black clothes make "him" hard to spot in the dark]
Worst Looking Slasher
Michael Myers (Halloween 2 - 2009) [he looks like a dirty vagrant]
Scariest Slasher
Leatherface (The Texas Chain Saw Massacre - 1974) [a large, grunting, mentally challenged psycho who wears his victims skin is one creepy freak]
Most Laughably Bad Slasher
Peter/Angela (Sleepaway Camp) [the movie wasn't horrific but the idea that a frail little boy/girl could kill so many people just seemed lame to me]
Best Franchise Featuring A Slasher
Scream [the only franchise where I'd give "thumbs up" to all installments]
Worst Franchise Featuring A Slasher
Jack Frost
[need I say more?]
Best Remake Featuring A Slasher
The Hills Have Eyes [while not great, it was better than the other recent slasher remakes]
Worst Remake Featuring A Slasher
Halloween [turned a great slasher icon into Jeffrey Dahmer while giving us a movie filled with poor acting and an awful script]
Slasher Most In Need Of A Remake
Child's Play [when they gave Chucky a son and had his Bride possess Jennifer Tilly, they went past campy right into crappy]
Slasher Whose Franchise Needs To End
Michael Myers (Halloween)
Slasher Who Deserves A Bigger Audience
Three Finger (Wrong Turn Trilogy) [best redneck psycho since Leatherface]
Best Slasher Sequel
Halloween IV [great beginning, great ending, and the last great installment in the Halloween franchise]
Worst Slasher Sequel
Halloween 2 (2009) [makes Rob Zombie's first remake look better it's so bad]
Biggest Guilty Pleasure Slasher
Chucky (Child's Play) [while the first movie might be the only great installment, Brad Dourif really makes this character]
LONG LIVE LOU SCHEIMER!!!
