Who is your ultimate horror baddie? For what reason?
Do you think the old classics had better or worse boogey men than the newer films?
Does a horror film and its villain/s have to be gory to be scary?

There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
I'm of the believe that the villian makes the movie, and no, I don't think that the movie has to be over the top gory for the film to be scary. For example : The Hannibal Lecter movies. Sure, there are gore in those films, but I think the calm and coolness with which Lecter describes his murders and the pleasures he takes in them is terrifying in it's own right.
I'll tell you what - the original The Hitcher freaked me out. Rutger Hauer is one scary dude, man.
His villian was just the right amount crazy-evil and smart-evil. And that man can play a villian, people. Trust me.

Me too! The Hitcher (orig) was great... I will never EVER pick up a hitchhiker because of Rutger Hauer.
I've got one that no one has mentioned... JAWS. The opening scene with the girl is terrifying to me.
and, although this seems to be turning a little into an Alien vs. Predator thing, Aliens are definitely the suprerior evil. Sorry, fp, you how much I loveses the Predator... but it just aint happening.
Buddy, you think you look strong? You’re wearing a cape.

I don't count Jaws Shark as a villian. After all, he was just following his nature.
AVP 2? That's news to me. I thought the first was a major disappointment.
Remake of Hellraiser? Why?? Except for special effects, i don't see much that would need improving. Doesn't anyone wanna make an original flick??
Getting tired of remake after remake...Halloween anyone???

He was really good in the original Hitcher, that scared the crap out of me.
I think I am going to go with Riff Raff from the Rocky Horror Picture Show

Probably the alien from the Aliens series - these movies really freaked the shit out of me when I was younger (around 12) and I was scared and couldnt sleep after watchinf them but after a few years this fear turned into a fan like interest and now Aliens is my favourite film of all time. Its probably because I saw Alien first, which is by far the scariest out of the franchise.

Oh helllllll nawwwwww!
I know what this calls for....
I am an Aliens fan, but not so much of the Predators, thats why I love watching them get their asses kicked in AVP. My favorite scene - Predator is about to spear the woman and you see the Alien's tail come from behind and BAM!! right through the Predator and lifts said Predator right up and BAM! nails him with its second mouth right through its helmet!! Woooohooooo first Predator blood!!

And who's standing in the end? Predator ? The queen alien meets an icy death in freezing water? Something like that right?
