THE BATTLE OF THE TINY TERRORS
Nominate your favorite tiny terror in the battle of the century!
Nomination Deadline: March 29th @ 12:00am
A dream in which horror fans like you vote for the TINIEST TERROR in horror history.
Picture if you will a Double-Elimination Tournament featuring every small, short, and tiny serial killer, creature, evil doll, puppet, mutant, alien and freak to ever appear in a horror movie. Each match, horror fans like you vote for who you think should win. Each diminutive death-dealers is eliminated after they lose two matches. Only one horror character will remain to be crowned THE TINIEST TERROR
But I need your help to nominate your favorite Tiny Terror. And I mean EVERY tiny terror. We all know Chucky or the Gremlins or the Leprechaun, but who thinks anymore about the creatures in The Boogens or the Demons from The Gate? It's time for every tiny terror in the horror genre, no matter how obscure, to stand tall in the spotlight. Dust off those old movies and nominate your favorite minuscule monstrosity!

Love this idea and will be thinking hard about who's missing from this list. You covered a lot of the good ones! Funny too because I had previously considered making March all about little villains in honor of leprechauns, but just never got organized enough to do so.
ReplyDeleteThe Leprechaun prompted this idea too. I was on Dollar Bin Horror reading Rhonny's review of Leprechaun 2 and I said I wanted to see "Chucky vs. Leprechaun vs. Jigsaw vs. Sam (Trick R' Treat) vs. the Dwarves from Phantasm."
ReplyDeleteCan I nominate 3 cupfuls of Squirm worms/Slugs Slugs or Kingdom of the Spiders Spiders?
ReplyDeleteBeyond that - Talking Tina from Twilight Zone, Fats from Magic (Me! Me! ME! MEMEMEMEME@!!!)
Mr Punch from Dolls.
Aylmer from Brain Damage (at least let him bartend - he secretes addictive, hallucinogenic blue fluid).
I'd also like to stack the numbers with a "tomato can" that's gonna lose to whoever it goes up against - The Severed Penis from Street Trash
Or, if you prefer a more muscular appearance - Ron Jeremy's member from One-Eyed Monster.
A possible dark horse winning candidate would be Trevor the (gun-toting) Rat from Meet the Feebles.
Will be back to annoy you with more candidates later.
I should state that I realize you will disqualify all my creepy-crawlies - I state in their defense that they all acted with motive, and in my damaged brain I always assign them lines (picture tiny, falsetto spider voices yelling "DDT my ass, you're dead motherfucker!!")
ReplyDeleteMy tomato-can-candidate is simply provided for skewing the odds and allowing organized crime to profit off this venture.
Hey, man! The Hedgehog's "One-Eyed Monster" is already on the list, but I will add Alymer and Trevor the Rat.
ReplyDeleteMaybe later we can have an animal fight. Like a cock fight but with killer spiders and GIANT LEPUS!
Also, without Corky around, all Fats could do is sit on the ground. Won't make much of fight. Then again, Jigsaw is a puppet too. I should probably take him off.
