Whorror Icon Podcast (00:00):
Oh, ooh.
That's what this is.
It's like the, the, the sexappeal tier list ranking.
It's not about fashion anymore.
It's about how fuckable theyare.
What is your book of Well,hanging out with your Smartest
and Funniest Friend.
You know me, I'll kill anybody,but.
(00:29):
Hi there, cutie patootie and welcome back
to Horror Icon, your queerplayground for all things scary,
sexy, and stupid.
Now you know me, I'm Cry Baby.
The spooky slut from YourWettest Nightmares.
And today we're doing anotherTearless Baby.
Yes, that's what's up.
Oh, I'm kind of excited aboutthis.
(00:50):
but first, like, here's a littlebit of the tea, bitching the
pot, so to speak.
Originally I was gonna bereleasing the Curse of Chucky
episode today with Donnie.
but due to some unfortunatecircumstances, Donnie and I were
unable to record our episode intime.
And so, I mean, I was originallyjust gonna kind of You know,
(01:12):
just release the episode when Iwas able to, but you know, I'm
trying to be consistent here.
I'm trying to, to make somemagic and I still honestly just
wanted to get something out toy'all because at the end of the
day, I love talking abouthorror.
I'm very passionate about thisproject in general, and I
figured why not do another tearlist?
(01:34):
I had a lot of fun with thefirst one that I did, which if
you haven't seen or listened to,you should definitely go check
it out.
I covered the final destinationdeaths from the first final
destination all the way throughthe newest final destination.
Final destination, bloodlines.
It was a lot of fun.
And I decided maybe about likean hour ago to do it again.
(01:57):
So, I mean, this is, uh, I'm notgonna lie, this is probably
gonna be a short one.
Mama threw this together,literally right before I started
recording, so, as the title maysuggest, we are gonna be taking
a look at and ranking the looksof some of our favorite horror
movie killers And when I saysome of our favorite, I really
(02:19):
just mean like the 27 or so thatI was able to pull off of the
top of my head when I wasputting this tier list together.
I probably missed some of yourfaves, and if I did that's fine,
honestly, let me know.
if y'all want a part two ofthis, I will do a part two of
this.
So get at me if I missed anybodythat you want to see.
(02:40):
Email me, throw it in thecomments, find me on the street
and scream it in my face.
No, don't do that last part.
But, Before we look at the tierlists and who I selected to
rank, I just wanna take a secondto like talk about what makes an
iconic horror movie killerThere's a lot to it'cause
there's so many out there,right?
(03:00):
There's an abundance of horrormovies with different killers
But only a few have stuck Ithink there's a couple of things
that really make a killer standout I think one thing is it has
to be scary.
There has to be some sort ofelement to it that is
terrifying.
'cause at the base level, whenyou're designing a, a, a killer
or a villain to terrorize thisgroup of people, they have to be
(03:23):
terrifying.
So that's criteria number one.
Is it scary?
If I saw this in my apartmentright now, would I be terrified?
I also think it has to be like.
Recognizable, right?
Like the silhouette test.
if I were to show you an outlineof this killer, no details,
would you be able to clock it?
Would you be able to identifywho it is?
(03:45):
I think that's super importanttoo.
Along with that, I thinksomething that helps make an
impactful image with a horrorkiller is a story.
What details are there that aretelling a story?
Like how is it connected to thekiller's origin?
Or is there like a, a theme thatwe're following?
those details can really helpelevate a, A Killer's look.
(04:08):
And then I think finally, uh.
It's just gonna come down towhether or not I like it.
Let's be honest.
Like those three things are veryimportant and those will
probably weigh a lot on mydecisions, but at the end of the
day, it's just like, do I likeit?
Is it something that I enjoy?
Does it tickle me?
(04:29):
Now that begs the question iswho am I?
Who am I to judge the fashionchoices of of, of killers?
honestly, no one.
I'm not anyone.
I'm sitting here in, uh,fricking a tank top and gym
shorts and the same faded assbaseball cap that I wear all the
fucking time.
So a, a fashion icon.
(04:51):
I am not, but.
It doesn't matter.
This is my fucking show, right?
And I like what I like.
So we're gonna talk about it.
And with that said, mama, let'sget into it.
Let's take a look at the fivetiers that we're going to use to
rank our horror couture, so tospeak.
Now starting with our top tier,the God tier, I have call Robert
(05:12):
one right now, which.
If you don't know who Robert wonis, you gotta check him out.
Robert won.
That's WUN one.
He is one of my favorite, if notmy favorite fashion designer
right now.
He has such a, a dark, romanticwhimsy to his pieces that is
(05:36):
just, hmm, it hits all the rightspots for me.
I had to pay homage to him withour top tier of course.
So first here, call Robert oneright now our second tier is
slate it.
No, really dial 9 1 1.
that's for ones that I can, Ican see are great.
Like they're good.
They're not my favorite.
(05:57):
They're not like God level tier,but they are a good design and I
appreciate them.
Our mid-tier is costume partyrealness, so this is one where
it's like, it's cute, I canclock it, like I know what it
is.
But I'm not impressed that,don't impress me much.
Look what you did.
Shania.
All right.
Our second to last tier is she'sa full on Monet.
(06:21):
So for those, for those of youwho haven't seen Clueless.
What it means to be a Monet islike, from far away it looks
pretty good, but when you get upclose, it's a total mess.
so that's our second to lasthere.
Decent from far away, but notpleasing up close.
Or the more I sit with it, themore I'm just like, eh.
Whatever.
And then our final tier isSpirit Halloween clearance.
(06:45):
Totally unimpressed, uninspired,basic, cheap, not my gig.
those are our five tiers.
Baby cakes.
We have Call Robert one rightnow.
Slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1 Costume partyrealness.
She's a full on Monet and SpiritHalloween clearance.
(07:05):
So without further ado, ourfirst fashion victim is the
fishermen from, I know what youdid last summer.
Oh, the fishermen.
Uh, so this guy, it's, I don'treally like the fishermen.
I'm just gonna say it right now.
I know what you did last summeris pretty cool.
The fisherman is.
(07:25):
Pretty not cool.
I would say the only, the only,bullet point, the asterisks that
I will put with that is in thechase scene with Sarah Michelle
Geller, which one of the bestchase scenes ever, in that chase
scene when they're in thedepartment store and you see his
silhouette with the slicker andthe fishing hat and the hook
(07:47):
like.
That's good.
I do like that silhouette, butit is quite basic.
It's a slicker and a fishing hatand a hook.
Like what's special about it?
Yeah, we get it.
You're a fisherman.
Okay, cool.
So I'm just gonna put it in likeshe's a full on Monet, from far
away.
She's cute, but up close.
I'm not really digging it, soAll right, up next we have
(08:09):
Pinhead from the Hell Raisefranchise.
Ugh.
Daddy, I love Pinhead.
Just from a a, a characterdesign.
The Cena bytes in general arejust delicious.
I, I have to, I have to take, I,I, I have to step up real quick
and just acknowledge the praisethat I have for Clive Barker and
(08:30):
the team that brought his bookto life If you haven't seen hell
raiser watch it.
uh, it's horny, it's dark, it'sromantic, it's gothic.
It's, there's, there's, there'sso much that I love about it,
and a huge part of that is thecenta bytes in their design.
And Pinhead is just kind of theone that stood out.
the rows of pins coming out ofhis head and like the chains and
(08:52):
the leather and I think it'sleather.
It's very shiny for leather, buteither way, it's very fetish
gear and very BDSM coated, whichI mean, Clive Barker has been
very open about, His BDSMinfluence in his work and him
being a queer man as well.
I love seeing that shit.
I love seeing that shit onscreen.
So Pinheads going right up atthe top.
(09:14):
Call Robert one right now.
He is sexy and honestly, if Ihad all of the money in the
world, uh, I would probably owna lot of pieces that are akin to
what Pinhead is wearing and Godknows I love a piercing, so I'd
be covered in them.
I.
All right, next up we haveCarrie White, specifically
(09:35):
Carrie White, at her mostpowerful at her badasses when
she is covered in pig's, blood,and just fucking killing
everybody.
This is her.
This is like the, the good foryou moment.
Yes.
This is what I want it to looklike in my prom.
It's bloody, it's, again, it's,it's so iconic.
(09:55):
the image of this teenage girljust covered in blood It's
scary, it's unnerving.
I feel bad for her.
I love her.
Also referenced a lot, the, thisCarrie White Bloody Prom look, I
feel like, is it, it getsreferenced quite a bit.
It's been referenced a few timeson Drag Race, of course.
(10:16):
And I just think in general, Isee a lot of clothing
replicating that bloody coveredin blood look.
So, I do love it.
She's slated, no, really, call 91 1.
She's she's pretty iconic.
one of my favorite horror killerimages out there is carry a
white covered in blood.
All right.
We got another bad bitch comingon up.
We got Megan M three gi, who hasher sequel coming out next week,
(10:39):
Megan 2.0, which looksinteresting.
I am, I'm intrigued.
I don't know if I'm sold.
But I'll watch it.
I'm also interested to see,'cause it looks like they're
gonna be redesigning thecharacter, so I'm interested to
see what they changed and, andhow Meghan evolves.
But Meghan, in the first movie,we all know if you were online
when this movie came out, thattrailer dropped and queer
(11:03):
Twitter picked that shit up andran with it like she was so
fucking Ty.
Mama.
I.
Was obsessed.
The, the dress, the bow, thesunglasses, the shoes very fun
and very instantly recognizable.
So she's going and slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
(11:23):
I think Meghan has quite theiconic look and it is a little
fashionable, a bit Lolita, but Imean, I guess she is a
children's toy, so there's that.
All right.
Up next we have the strangers.
This is a group of three.
They all have different masks.
We have like a duall face, wehave like a sack face, and you
know, just these three bitchesterrorizing, Liv Tyler and her
(11:46):
not fiance and their secludedhome.
It's okay.
if I were to see these threepeople in my apartment right
now, I mean, I wouldn't be happyabout it.
Uh, that's true.
I would not be happy about it,but There's just something very
not specific about some of thisthat I'm just not super crazy
about.
The only one that I do likewould be Dollface.
(12:09):
She's the one in the, she'swearing a yellow dress and she
has that, uh, almost like BettyBoop looking ass mask.
I think she's cute, but the restof it is just, it's kind of
forgettable.
I think what they do is morescary than how they look.
Home invasion is fuckingterrifying, but they, they look
fine.
(12:29):
I'll just put them in the middletier costume party realness, you
know, I'm not displeased withit.
There's some effective moments,I think, but it's just, when I
think of, of iconic horror movielooks, they're definitely not on
my list right away.
All right, Billy the puppet.
This cty motherfucker tricycling around in a suit.
(12:50):
Blushed the fuck up.
I mean, I'm just, I'm gonna haveto put up, up, up in the top,
you know, call Robert one rightnow.
I just, I love a suit.
I love a bitch in a suit,especially with a little bow
tie.
The spiral blush takes me out.
Uh, the only thing I'll, I'llknock is the hair.
I'm not one to talk my wigs looklike shit, but, I'm not in a
(13:11):
million dollar movie or abillion dollar movie, whatever,
however much this movie was.
I am not an antagonist in ahorror movie.
Okay?
My wigs can look like shit, lowstakes.
but I digress, Billy the puppet,regardless of the ratty ass
looking hair, I fucking lovethat bitch.
So cute.
if I did see him tri cyclinginto my bedroom, I would shit
myself.
There's something about liketiny little things that's a
(13:32):
little unnerving.
All right.
We have a big hitter coming up.
We have Freddy Krueger.
Freddy Krueger.
So here's the thing aboutFreddy.
there's so much, I don't meanthat in a bad way, I mean that
positively.
'cause again, thinking on, onlike iconic horror movie,
slashers, iconic horror killers,they'll generally have like one
(13:54):
or two specific things.
you know, you have Jason withhis hockey mask, Chucky is a
doll.
Michael Myers with his, hismask.
there's just like.
One thing that makes themrecognizable.
Freddy, on the other hand, thatmotherfucker has a hat.
That motherfucker has aChristmas dirty ass striped
sweater.
He has his little claws and helooks like a burnt cheese pizza.
(14:18):
Like there's so much to him thatis instantly recognizable and
instantly iconic, and he isscary.
With the exception of Freddy'sdeath, the final nightmare.
'cause that movie, um, he is ajoke, but beyond that, he is
horrifying and he is also goingtop tier.
I feel like I would get shot ifI didn't put Freddy Krueger in
(14:38):
the top tier.
I, and he's not going in the toptier because I'm afraid of
getting shot.
He's going in the top tierbecause I think he belongs
there.
All right.
We have Heart eyes.
Heart Eyes came out earlier thisyear and it's a movie by Josh
Rubin, whom I fucking love.
I think Josh Rubin is so funny.
I saw his movie, I think it'scalled Scare Me or something
(14:59):
like that.
I really enjoyed that.
It's like a single location,they're just telling scary
stories kind of movie.
That one's really fun.
so yeah, I like Josh Rubin,heart Eyes as a movie.
It was fine.
But I do like heart eyes',character design.
I don't know if I'm the minorityon this one, but, his mask, it's
like, this helmet kind of thingwith two heart eye cutouts and
(15:22):
they're lit up like with likered LEDs and I just think that's
cute.
It is topical.
You know, the heart eyes is aValentine's Day slasher.
So if it fits with a theme Ijust, I just like the look.
I don't know exactly what it is.
It's probably the lights.
I like shiny things, but I amgonna put heart eyes, uh, you
can shoot me.
I'm gonna put'em up and slateit.
(15:42):
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
I just, I really like that mask.
I think it's cute in a scarykind of way.
So there's that.
Oof.
Okay, so now we're moving on toJason Vorhees.
Now Jason Vorhees has, threelooks that I'm gonna talk about.
We're gonna first talk aboutSack head, Jason from Friday the
(16:04):
13th, part two.
This is before Jason gets thehockey mask.
It's where he's wearing like apotato sack or something.
A burlap sack over his head withthe one eye cut out.
Very similar to one of thestrangers.
the, the daddy stranger has asack over his head too.
I do like Jason's a little bitmore.
I think it's a bit scarier.
(16:25):
There's this one shotspecifically towards the end
where the final girl, Ginny isin like some shed or Shaq or
something, and we see behind herthrough the window Jason and all
of his sack headed glory runningtowards the shack.
And it's scary.
It's, it's a really scary shot.
Is the sac head as iconic as thehockey mask?
(16:47):
No.
And for that reason, I can't putit in top tier.
I do think I am gonna put it, insecond tier.
She slayed.
I'll put it behind Carrie White.
'cause it's good, it's scary.
It's just not the best.
But speaking of the vest, wehave.
Hockey mask Jason, which isJason as we all know and love
him in the majority of hismovies.
(17:07):
obviously he's gonna go on thetop tier.
Call Robert one right now.
Jason was my favorite growing upwhen I was a, a scared little
gay boy watching horror movies.
I found him to be the scariest.
The hockey mask was fun.
And it's just iconic.
You know, I think outside of thehorror sphere, I find that a lot
of people when they referenceslasher movies, they reference
(17:30):
the slasher killer wearing ahockey mask.
They don't identify Jason byname, but it's always like a
hockey mask.
And so I think that has to giveus something.
I think the hockey mask, Jasonhas moved beyond.
The horror landscape into awider pop culture, level of
understanding and, andvisibility.
(17:51):
So he has to go in the top tier.
And then our final one is UberJason from Jason X.
So Jason X honestly, acriminally over hated Friday
movie, in my opinion.
A lot of people don't like itand they think it's trash, which
like, I'm not gonna tell you howto feel, but I will.
Argue for this movie.
(18:12):
I think Jason X is fun.
I love Jason goes to space.
I think it's just really cheekyand it's something new for the
franchise and I just love havingthis this relic of the eighties
of like, you know, camp Slashersthrown into a futuristic kind of
environment.
I, it's, it's really fun.
(18:32):
It's really playful.
and so Uber, Jason, how UberJason comes about is, he gets
like shot or obliterated orsomething.
They think that they kill him,but futuristic technology, they
have nanobots that are able torepair and replace tissue to
heal people.
It's a, it's a medical thing andas it turns out, they killed
(18:52):
Jason Voorhees.
Right next to the Nanobotmachine.
So those nanobots come out andthey put Jason back together and
they replace a lot of his tissuewith metal and shit.
And we end up with this big Hulkin metal masked daddy is, fuck
Jason.
Don't judge me.
But it's hot.
I, I think it's, it's kind ofhot.
(19:15):
I like Uber, Jason and I I,everybody's going up here, but
he's going and slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
I'm gonna put him above Megan.
Don't shoot me for that one.
I really like Uber, Jason.
I think it's just a fun variantof Jason Vhe as we know him.
All righty, bride ofFrankenstein.
she's cty as fuck.
(19:36):
I love the bride ofFrankenstein, first off, she's
gorgeous.
This woman is beautiful and hersilhouette.
Iconic the hair with a whitestripe.
Wonderful.
Her white gown, getup,dignified, elegant, cutesy,
sexy.
She's going in the top tier.
Gosh, I must be really.
(19:57):
Really in a good mood today'cause everybody is getting
ranked pretty high, but I thinkBride of Frankenstein totally
deserves it.
She's stunning and she walked soother horror icons could run.
Let's be honest.
She's like the blueprint andspeaking of the bride of
Frankenstein being a blueprint,we're gonna talk about Tiffany
(20:17):
Valentine from the bride ofChucky.
First I have Tiffany Valentinein human form when she's her
sexy corseted trailer park.
Live-in blonde babe.
I love her style.
I think she is so sexy, this isvery, very hot.
So Tiffany in human form isgoing to go and slate it.
No, really Call 9 1 1 and she'sgonna have to go at the top, at
(20:40):
the top of that tier.
Move over Carrie.
There we go.
Yes, Tiffany Valentine.
I'm, uh, this also might getrearranged.
If it's too top heavy, I mayhave to bump some bitches down.
We'll see.
But right now we have a solid 11of the 13 that I've talked about
so far, or in the top two tiers.
So, whoops.
(21:01):
We'll see if that changes.
Now we have doll Tiffany anddoll Tiffany.
I see so many gay boys dressedas Tiffany for Halloween.
I don't know how I feel aboutthat.
But that's just, it's, I, she'siconic.
Everybody wants to be her.
Everybody wants to be dollTiffany, and I get it.
(21:24):
Barbie, eat your heart out.
Although I will say I do thinkthat in bride of Chucky doll,
Tiffany looks more like TaraReed than she does Jennifer
Tilley, but that's besides thepoint.
She still looks great.
I was very upset when she gotthrown into the oven and that's
how I know she belongs in thetop tier.
because I was so attached to herlook that it physically pained
(21:46):
me when she got thrown in theoven, got burnt to a crisp and
did not look like that anymore.
Very upsetting.
Very upsetting.
All right, so we're going fromTiffany to Chucky.
I have two Chuckies.
We have classic Chucky.
This is our Chucky from child'splay, one, two, and three.
He's fine.
Redheaded.
Good guy, doll.
(22:06):
I, I like Chucky better whenhe's animated as Chucky when
he's just that fuck ass dollwith a big ass head.
I don't like it as much, butwhen he's up and moving, he's
cute.
He's fun, he's iconic.
he used to scare me when I was akid, but I know a lot of people
who are still scared by him.
I'm gonna have to throw Chuckyin.
Slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
(22:26):
he's not quite my favorite, mosticonic in his classic form, but
I feel like it would be adisservice to not put him higher
up because he is a very, veryrecognizable horror character,
and the overall in red shoes arejust to die for.
But next we're moving on toFrank and Chucky, whom I am
(22:48):
going to throw in our top tier,Frank and Chucky.
This is Chucky from Bride ofChucky through, I guess
technically.
Cult of Chucky.
but this is the Chucky that'sall stitched together, of
course, paying homage toFrankenstein, the inspiration to
bride of Chucky.
So I like that.
I think it's clever.
I think it's cute.
I think it makes a lot of sensewith the story considering how
(23:09):
Chucky had died in child's playthree.
And also just like if you werealive in the nineties, that
motherfucker's face waseverywhere, everywhere promoting
that movie.
So yes, he's, he's iconic.
He's going in our top tier callRobert won right now, like a
wonderful character design.
Okay.
(23:30):
Be Boul is from sinister.
if you haven't seen sinister,it's probably one of my favorite
horror movies of all time.
It is one of the horror moviesthat genuinely as an adult,
scared the shit out of me.
Boul is the big bad of thatmovie, and.
He is also kind of sexy.
Oh my God.
This is turning into just likewhether or not I would fuck
(23:53):
these people.
Ugh.
Maybe that's why so many of themare top tier.
But I'm sorry, he's sexy.
He's in his suit.
He has the top buttonunbuttoned.
He has like scraggly hair, andhis face is terrifying.
He's gonna have to go and slateit.
No, really?
Call 9 1 1 2.
Uh, this is so top heavyeverybody.
(24:13):
I, I'm just gonna recap rightnow.
So.
In our Topes tier, our TippetyTippety top tier, we have
Pinhead from Hella Raiser.
Billy the Puppet.
Freddy Krueger Hockey Mask,Jason, the bride of
Frankenstein, doll.
Tiffany and Franken.
Chucky, and then in our secondtier, slate it.
No, really call 9 1 1.
We have classic Chucky.
(24:34):
Human.
Tiffany Valentine, AKA,Jennifer, Tilly, Carrie, white S
head, Jason, Uber, Jason Baggo,Megan and heart eyes.
Hmm.
I think before I move forward Imight rearrange some things.
I think heart, eyes.
I am gonna move down one tocostume party realness.
The more I sit with it, the moreI'm like, it's cute, but it's,
(24:55):
it's been one movie.
I don't think it's likeSuperduty, iconic.
And with that I'm also probablygonna move the strangers down
to, she's a full on Monet, so wejust moved two down.
Let me see what else.
Oh, I don't know if I have theheart to move anybody else down
lower.
Guys, this is a problem.
Are you gonna be mad at me iflike everybody is highly ranked?
(25:19):
That's not interesting.
That just makes me a lover.
I mean, I love being a lover.
Oh my God.
I did not expect to fall into anexistential crisis during this.
Okay.
Listen, not everybody can makevarsity sack head.
Jason, you're gonna go down tocostume party realness.
(25:39):
I know you were scary, but therewas, there really wasn't
anything identifiable about you.
Actually, I'm just like, Iranked you higher just because
of that one shot with yourunning towards Ginny.
Alright.
I think that's it.
Okay.
I think, I think we're good.
Okay.
So I moved, just to recap.
I moved Heart Eyes and s Zachhad Jason down to our third tier
(26:03):
caution party Realness, and thenI moved the strangers down to
our fourth tier.
She's a full on Monet.
I might do this again.
We'll see.
But anyway, forward and onward.
We're gonna move on to our nextbay.
We're gonna move on toGhostface.
Ghostface is kind of a queen.
There's a lot of swooshingfabric.
It's a little sparkly.
(26:24):
I don't know if y'all clockedthat The fabric of the ghost
face costume is quite sparklyand shiny.
Which I like.
Of course, the, the, the faceitself is iconic and it's gonna
have to, I just moved a bunch ofpeople down so I could put
Ghostface in the top tier.
Ghostface is really an icon.
I love it.
It is scary.
(26:44):
I remember the first time Iwatched Scream ghost face scared
the shit out of me.
I actually couldn't look at themasks without like being afraid.
instantly recognizable.
We all, the, the ghost face issynonymous with Scream, so we
have to, all right, up next wehave the tethered from us.
these are the people that liveunderground and then have their
uprising.
(27:04):
To kill their doppelgangers.
you know, it's like a, it'salmost like a prison uniform.
It's bright red, which is alovely color.
I personally don't think I lookgood in red.
I, I don't really wear red thatmuch.
But Lupita Django looks great inred, and I think, well, the
character's name is red, sothere's also that.
(27:24):
kind of culty looking, whichtugs at a little special place
in my heart.
It is quite basic and it's notreally that scary So I'm gonna
have to, I'm gonna put it in.
She's a full-on Monet.
It's not terrible.
But it's not amazing.
There are impactful moments tothis look it's more impactful
when you see.
All of the tethered togetherwearing this red'cause it feels
(27:46):
very culty.
It feels very like you're beingoutnumbered.
That's cool.
But on an individual level it'sjust, you know, it's kind of
pedestrian.
Candyman, ugh, candy man's.
Ugh.
I love Tony Todd.
Rest in peace.
Tony.
Todd.
Tony.
Todd's fucking incredible.
(28:07):
And Candyman is also reallysexy.
Oh, ooh.
That's what this is.
It's like the, the, the sexappeal tier list ranking.
It's not about fashion anymore.
It's about how fuckable theyare.
Oh, I can't disrespect Tony Toddlike that.
He has to at least go slay that.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
I mean the hook hand iswonderful.
(28:28):
Much better than the Fisherman'sHook hand'cause it's like in his
body.
And then the coat is just sosexy and like the, the frilly
white shirt underneath it.
And I mean, Tony Todd is justlike handsome.
And then the bees, we have thebees, which is wonderful.
So Candyman is going to go inour second tier.
Slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
(28:49):
Up next we have the Urban LegendKiller.
Now, if you're having a hardtime remembering what the Urban
Legend Killer looks like, that'skind of my point here.
it's a parka.
That's it.
It's just a hooded fuzzy coat.
I live in New York City.
I see these everywhere.
There's nothing scary about it.
So our first ever bottom tierspirit Halloween clearance is
(29:13):
going to the killer from urbanlegend in that fucking parka.
Very underwhelming, verypedestrian.
Nothing chic or scary about it.
Ugh.
Okay.
Whew.
Now I feel better.
I feel better now that I putsomebody in the bottom tier.
It feels like a real tear listnow.
(29:33):
All right.
We only have six left, so wehave a leprechaun.
That little shit box.
Um, is he like, is it iconic?
Sure.
I mean, it's a little top hatwith like little.
Fussy shoes and stuff, I mean,he's gross, which plays in his
favor, but I don't, I had toreally dig to think about him,
to put him on this list.
(29:53):
So it didn't really stick withme, him as a killer.
Yes, there is the whole being ontheme thing with like him being
a leprechaun, I don't even knowif that's a theme.
That's just him.
What the fuck am I talkingabout?
Anyway, he's gonna go on costumeparty realness.
Like it's, it's okay.
Not my favorite.
Doesn't really stand out but ithas some good, fun details in
(30:15):
there.
So that's that I.
Okay.
The Black Bride from Insidious,this is the last, horror movie
villain that I pulled before Istarted recording.
I don't know how she ended up onmy list, if I'm being honest.
But she's here.
If you haven't seen Insidious,it's just, she's like a, a ghost
that's wearing all black.
(30:35):
With a black veil, spooky face.
She is scary.
When I saw Insidious, it didscare me, but I am going to dock
points due to the, transphobicnarrative of this character.
Not happy about that.
I don't remember which movie, Ithink it was Insidious Two or
whatever, By the time that moviecame out, we as a society should
(30:58):
have moved far beyond.
The, trans killer trope.
I'm over it.
It's reductive.
It's uninspired, it's harmful,so the black bride is gonna go
in spirit Halloween clearance,pretty much based on that,
that's probably why she ended upon my list because I wanted to
(31:20):
shit on the whole transnarrative that they shoehorned
in there for that character Sounnecessary.
Stupid, harmful, all right.
Next we have, ooh, other motherfrom Coralline.
We have two variants of thisone.
We have the basic other motherwith her fucking sweater, her
button eyes, and her oven mitts.
(31:41):
She's cute.
There is like a bit of a storythere, but again, it, it is
quite pedestrian.
I do love the button eyes,though.
I think the button eyes are awonderful, wonderful touch in,
building these characters and inbuilding this, this world.
So she's not gonna go fully inthe bottom.
I'm gonna put her in.
She's a full on Monet for thebasic other, their mother.
there's some stuff there, butoverall it's just kind of meh.
(32:03):
But when we go into the FierceOther Mother, after she
transformed, when she's allspidery and spindly and her fuck
ass Bob just gets like way moresevere.
That's scary.
If I was a child watching thatmovie, I would've shit myself.
And it's quite cunty and I mean,let's be honest, skinny legend.
(32:24):
So, she's gonna go and costumeparty realness because I do
appreciate her.
She doesn't carry enough, iconicstatus to hang with like the big
swingers that we have, likeFrank and Chucky and Carrie and
stuff, but.
You know, she's good.
I like, I like her look.
So costume party realness.
Up next, our penultimate fashionvictim is Leatherface
(32:48):
Leatherface.
I also, I specifically chose theLeatherface in a suit at the end
of Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Arguably like.
Such a, a beautiful shot when,when what's her fuck gets away
in the back of the truck andleather faces swinging the, the
chainsaw around and the sunsetting.
(33:09):
It's gorgeous.
Oh God, am I about to do what Idid with Sack head, Jason, and
base this all off of one shot?
Maybe, I don't know.
But like this leather face islike, again, I, I love a bitch
in a suit.
We talked about this also.
I just love that she's paintedthe, the face.
She's wearing makeup.
She's trying here, she's puttingin an effort.
(33:31):
And I just also have such a softspot for, for leather face, so
I'm gonna have to put leatherface in, slate it.
No, really call 9 1 1.
No second to top tier.
Just'cause I have so much loveand respect for leather face,
for the, look for the suit.
It's, it's, she's wearing herdinner.
Best everybody.
I can't shit on that.
(33:51):
And last but not least, we haveMichael Myers.
Ooh.
Okay.
So I have a little bit of aconfession to make and ooh,
y'all might come for me on thisone, but, um, I don't like
Michael Myers.
I find him incredibly boring andI know, I know Michael Myers is
(34:14):
Iconic on everyone's horror,Mount Rushmore.
I get that.
You know, and I have a lot ofrespect for Halloween and how it
influenced the horror genre.
I think that's all fuckinggreat.
And I really like the firstHalloween movie.
I think the first Halloweenmovie is wonderful, and I do
like Michael Myers in thatmovie, but I think as a
(34:36):
franchise and just the mask.
Oftentimes looks just goofy asfuck in a lot of these movies.
And that's just it.
It's like a mechanics jumpsuitwith a William Shatner mask.
And is it iconic?
Yes.
If I saw him in my apartmentright now, I'd probably be
scared, but I just can't getpast the fact that compared to
(35:00):
so many other iconic.
Killers like Chucky and Freddieand the bride of Frankenstein
and Pinhead, he's justunderwhelming.
You know, uh, Michael Myers islike the equivalent of a
cisgender man showing up to theMet Gala in a tuxedo.
I.
For me, you know, like, where'sthe inspiration, where's the
(35:21):
excitement?
It's not there for me.
So in what is probably going tobe my most controversial ranking
here, I am going to put MichaelMyers in.
She's a full on Monet, Um, If itmakes you feel better, I put'em
at the top of the top of thattier, but.
I am just not excited by MichaelMyers.
I'm sorry.
I find him boring.
(35:41):
If you disagree with me, pleaselet me know.
Come at me in the comments.
Send me an email.
Tell me all the filthy thingsyou want to say.
I just, I will die on this hill,Oh my goodness.
Let's just recap one final time.
Our ranking of horror moviekiller look.
in our spirit Halloweenclearance, we have the Urban
(36:02):
Legend Killer wearing thefucking parka and then the black
bride from Insidious because ofall the transphobic bullshit.
Our next tier up, we have thefull on Monet.
We have the fishermen from, IKnow What You did last summer.
Nothing special there.
The strangers from, uh.
Oh, the strangers that is thename of their movie.
(36:24):
We have the tethered from us.
The basic other mother with herbuttoned eyes and her mom's
sweater and her fuck ass momhaircut.
And then we have Michael Myers,sorry, not sorry.
In, in our third tier costumeparty realness, we have heart
eyes, leprechaun sack head,Jason, and the Fierce other
mother, the one that looks likea fucking spider.
(36:44):
So cool.
Our second tier, slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
We have Leatherface Candyman,Megan Boul from Sinister.
Uber, Jason Daddy, Carrie White,Tiffany Valentine in human form,
and then our classic Chucky, andthen our top tier, the big
(37:05):
hitters of this game.
We have Ghostface Frank andChucky doll.
Tiffany, the bride ofFrankenstein Hockey mask, Jason
Freddy Krueger, Billy thePuppet, and Pinhead.
Wow, that was hard.
I did not expect to fall into anexistential crisis as quickly as
I did.
I don't think I'm gonna try tochange anything because if I do,
(37:28):
I'm just gonna be here allnight.
I.
Talking to you and talking tomyself, trying to justify moving
things around.
So this is where we're at rightnow.
I agree with myself.
If you disagree with me, pleaselet me know.
I would love to hear what yourrankings are for these horror
characters, and if I missed any,I.
Please shoot'em my way.
(37:49):
I will gladly do a round two ofthis.
I love doing tear lists.
It's a lot of fun because I justlove giving my opinion when
nobody asks for it anyway, staytuned for the continuation of
our franchise series.
i'm gonna get that cursiveChucky episode out to you as
(38:09):
soon as I possibly can.
Until next time, cuties, don'tbe scared unless you are into
that sort of thing.
Bye.
Oh, ooh.
That's what this is.
It's like the, the, the sexappeal tier list ranking.
It's not about fashion anymore.
It's about how fuckable theyare.
What is your book of Well,hanging out with your Smartest
and Funniest Friend.
You know me, I'll kill anybody,but.
(00:29):
Hi there, cutie patootie and welcome back
to Horror Icon, your queerplayground for all things scary,
sexy, and stupid.
Now you know me, I'm Cry Baby.
The spooky slut from YourWettest Nightmares.
And today we're doing anotherTearless Baby.
Yes, that's what's up.
Oh, I'm kind of excited aboutthis.
(00:50):
but first, like, here's a littlebit of the tea, bitching the
pot, so to speak.
Originally I was gonna bereleasing the Curse of Chucky
episode today with Donnie.
but due to some unfortunatecircumstances, Donnie and I were
unable to record our episode intime.
And so, I mean, I was originallyjust gonna kind of You know,
(01:12):
just release the episode when Iwas able to, but you know, I'm
trying to be consistent here.
I'm trying to, to make somemagic and I still honestly just
wanted to get something out toy'all because at the end of the
day, I love talking abouthorror.
I'm very passionate about thisproject in general, and I
figured why not do another tearlist?
(01:34):
I had a lot of fun with thefirst one that I did, which if
you haven't seen or listened to,you should definitely go check
it out.
I covered the final destinationdeaths from the first final
destination all the way throughthe newest final destination.
Final destination, bloodlines.
It was a lot of fun.
And I decided maybe about likean hour ago to do it again.
(01:57):
So, I mean, this is, uh, I'm notgonna lie, this is probably
gonna be a short one.
Mama threw this together,literally right before I started
recording, so, as the title maysuggest, we are gonna be taking
a look at and ranking the looksof some of our favorite horror
movie killers And when I saysome of our favorite, I really
(02:19):
just mean like the 27 or so thatI was able to pull off of the
top of my head when I wasputting this tier list together.
I probably missed some of yourfaves, and if I did that's fine,
honestly, let me know.
if y'all want a part two ofthis, I will do a part two of
this.
So get at me if I missed anybodythat you want to see.
(02:40):
Email me, throw it in thecomments, find me on the street
and scream it in my face.
No, don't do that last part.
But, Before we look at the tierlists and who I selected to
rank, I just wanna take a secondto like talk about what makes an
iconic horror movie killerThere's a lot to it'cause
there's so many out there,right?
(03:00):
There's an abundance of horrormovies with different killers
But only a few have stuck Ithink there's a couple of things
that really make a killer standout I think one thing is it has
to be scary.
There has to be some sort ofelement to it that is
terrifying.
'cause at the base level, whenyou're designing a, a, a killer
or a villain to terrorize thisgroup of people, they have to be
(03:23):
terrifying.
So that's criteria number one.
Is it scary?
If I saw this in my apartmentright now, would I be terrified?
I also think it has to be like.
Recognizable, right?
Like the silhouette test.
if I were to show you an outlineof this killer, no details,
would you be able to clock it?
Would you be able to identifywho it is?
(03:45):
I think that's super importanttoo.
Along with that, I thinksomething that helps make an
impactful image with a horrorkiller is a story.
What details are there that aretelling a story?
Like how is it connected to thekiller's origin?
Or is there like a, a theme thatwe're following?
those details can really helpelevate a, A Killer's look.
(04:08):
And then I think finally, uh.
It's just gonna come down towhether or not I like it.
Let's be honest.
Like those three things are veryimportant and those will
probably weigh a lot on mydecisions, but at the end of the
day, it's just like, do I likeit?
Is it something that I enjoy?
Does it tickle me?
(04:29):
Now that begs the question iswho am I?
Who am I to judge the fashionchoices of of, of killers?
honestly, no one.
I'm not anyone.
I'm sitting here in, uh,fricking a tank top and gym
shorts and the same faded assbaseball cap that I wear all the
fucking time.
So a, a fashion icon.
(04:51):
I am not, but.
It doesn't matter.
This is my fucking show, right?
And I like what I like.
So we're gonna talk about it.
And with that said, mama, let'sget into it.
Let's take a look at the fivetiers that we're going to use to
rank our horror couture, so tospeak.
Now starting with our top tier,the God tier, I have call Robert
(05:12):
one right now, which.
If you don't know who Robert wonis, you gotta check him out.
Robert won.
That's WUN one.
He is one of my favorite, if notmy favorite fashion designer
right now.
He has such a, a dark, romanticwhimsy to his pieces that is
(05:36):
just, hmm, it hits all the rightspots for me.
I had to pay homage to him withour top tier of course.
So first here, call Robert oneright now our second tier is
slate it.
No, really dial 9 1 1.
that's for ones that I can, Ican see are great.
Like they're good.
They're not my favorite.
(05:57):
They're not like God level tier,but they are a good design and I
appreciate them.
Our mid-tier is costume partyrealness, so this is one where
it's like, it's cute, I canclock it, like I know what it
is.
But I'm not impressed that,don't impress me much.
Look what you did.
Shania.
All right.
Our second to last tier is she'sa full on Monet.
(06:21):
So for those, for those of youwho haven't seen Clueless.
What it means to be a Monet islike, from far away it looks
pretty good, but when you get upclose, it's a total mess.
so that's our second to lasthere.
Decent from far away, but notpleasing up close.
Or the more I sit with it, themore I'm just like, eh.
Whatever.
And then our final tier isSpirit Halloween clearance.
(06:45):
Totally unimpressed, uninspired,basic, cheap, not my gig.
those are our five tiers.
Baby cakes.
We have Call Robert one rightnow.
Slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1 Costume partyrealness.
She's a full on Monet and SpiritHalloween clearance.
(07:05):
So without further ado, ourfirst fashion victim is the
fishermen from, I know what youdid last summer.
Oh, the fishermen.
Uh, so this guy, it's, I don'treally like the fishermen.
I'm just gonna say it right now.
I know what you did last summeris pretty cool.
The fisherman is.
(07:25):
Pretty not cool.
I would say the only, the only,bullet point, the asterisks that
I will put with that is in thechase scene with Sarah Michelle
Geller, which one of the bestchase scenes ever, in that chase
scene when they're in thedepartment store and you see his
silhouette with the slicker andthe fishing hat and the hook
(07:47):
like.
That's good.
I do like that silhouette, butit is quite basic.
It's a slicker and a fishing hatand a hook.
Like what's special about it?
Yeah, we get it.
You're a fisherman.
Okay, cool.
So I'm just gonna put it in likeshe's a full on Monet, from far
away.
She's cute, but up close.
I'm not really digging it, soAll right, up next we have
(08:09):
Pinhead from the Hell Raisefranchise.
Ugh.
Daddy, I love Pinhead.
Just from a a, a characterdesign.
The Cena bytes in general arejust delicious.
I, I have to, I have to take, I,I, I have to step up real quick
and just acknowledge the praisethat I have for Clive Barker and
(08:30):
the team that brought his bookto life If you haven't seen hell
raiser watch it.
uh, it's horny, it's dark, it'sromantic, it's gothic.
It's, there's, there's, there'sso much that I love about it,
and a huge part of that is thecenta bytes in their design.
And Pinhead is just kind of theone that stood out.
the rows of pins coming out ofhis head and like the chains and
(08:52):
the leather and I think it'sleather.
It's very shiny for leather, buteither way, it's very fetish
gear and very BDSM coated, whichI mean, Clive Barker has been
very open about, His BDSMinfluence in his work and him
being a queer man as well.
I love seeing that shit.
I love seeing that shit onscreen.
So Pinheads going right up atthe top.
(09:14):
Call Robert one right now.
He is sexy and honestly, if Ihad all of the money in the
world, uh, I would probably owna lot of pieces that are akin to
what Pinhead is wearing and Godknows I love a piercing, so I'd
be covered in them.
I.
All right, next up we haveCarrie White, specifically
(09:35):
Carrie White, at her mostpowerful at her badasses when
she is covered in pig's, blood,and just fucking killing
everybody.
This is her.
This is like the, the good foryou moment.
Yes.
This is what I want it to looklike in my prom.
It's bloody, it's, again, it's,it's so iconic.
(09:55):
the image of this teenage girljust covered in blood It's
scary, it's unnerving.
I feel bad for her.
I love her.
Also referenced a lot, the, thisCarrie White Bloody Prom look, I
feel like, is it, it getsreferenced quite a bit.
It's been referenced a few timeson Drag Race, of course.
(10:16):
And I just think in general, Isee a lot of clothing
replicating that bloody coveredin blood look.
So, I do love it.
She's slated, no, really, call 91 1.
She's she's pretty iconic.
one of my favorite horror killerimages out there is carry a
white covered in blood.
All right.
We got another bad bitch comingon up.
We got Megan M three gi, who hasher sequel coming out next week,
(10:39):
Megan 2.0, which looksinteresting.
I am, I'm intrigued.
I don't know if I'm sold.
But I'll watch it.
I'm also interested to see,'cause it looks like they're
gonna be redesigning thecharacter, so I'm interested to
see what they changed and, andhow Meghan evolves.
But Meghan, in the first movie,we all know if you were online
when this movie came out, thattrailer dropped and queer
(11:03):
Twitter picked that shit up andran with it like she was so
fucking Ty.
Mama.
I.
Was obsessed.
The, the dress, the bow, thesunglasses, the shoes very fun
and very instantly recognizable.
So she's going and slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
(11:23):
I think Meghan has quite theiconic look and it is a little
fashionable, a bit Lolita, but Imean, I guess she is a
children's toy, so there's that.
All right.
Up next we have the strangers.
This is a group of three.
They all have different masks.
We have like a duall face, wehave like a sack face, and you
know, just these three bitchesterrorizing, Liv Tyler and her
(11:46):
not fiance and their secludedhome.
It's okay.
if I were to see these threepeople in my apartment right
now, I mean, I wouldn't be happyabout it.
Uh, that's true.
I would not be happy about it,but There's just something very
not specific about some of thisthat I'm just not super crazy
about.
The only one that I do likewould be Dollface.
(12:09):
She's the one in the, she'swearing a yellow dress and she
has that, uh, almost like BettyBoop looking ass mask.
I think she's cute, but the restof it is just, it's kind of
forgettable.
I think what they do is morescary than how they look.
Home invasion is fuckingterrifying, but they, they look
fine.
(12:29):
I'll just put them in the middletier costume party realness, you
know, I'm not displeased withit.
There's some effective moments,I think, but it's just, when I
think of, of iconic horror movielooks, they're definitely not on
my list right away.
All right, Billy the puppet.
This cty motherfucker tricycling around in a suit.
(12:50):
Blushed the fuck up.
I mean, I'm just, I'm gonna haveto put up, up, up in the top,
you know, call Robert one rightnow.
I just, I love a suit.
I love a bitch in a suit,especially with a little bow
tie.
The spiral blush takes me out.
Uh, the only thing I'll, I'llknock is the hair.
I'm not one to talk my wigs looklike shit, but, I'm not in a
(13:11):
million dollar movie or abillion dollar movie, whatever,
however much this movie was.
I am not an antagonist in ahorror movie.
Okay?
My wigs can look like shit, lowstakes.
but I digress, Billy the puppet,regardless of the ratty ass
looking hair, I fucking lovethat bitch.
So cute.
if I did see him tri cyclinginto my bedroom, I would shit
myself.
There's something about liketiny little things that's a
(13:32):
little unnerving.
All right.
We have a big hitter coming up.
We have Freddy Krueger.
Freddy Krueger.
So here's the thing aboutFreddy.
there's so much, I don't meanthat in a bad way, I mean that
positively.
'cause again, thinking on, onlike iconic horror movie,
slashers, iconic horror killers,they'll generally have like one
(13:54):
or two specific things.
you know, you have Jason withhis hockey mask, Chucky is a
doll.
Michael Myers with his, hismask.
there's just like.
One thing that makes themrecognizable.
Freddy, on the other hand, thatmotherfucker has a hat.
That motherfucker has aChristmas dirty ass striped
sweater.
He has his little claws and helooks like a burnt cheese pizza.
(14:18):
Like there's so much to him thatis instantly recognizable and
instantly iconic, and he isscary.
With the exception of Freddy'sdeath, the final nightmare.
'cause that movie, um, he is ajoke, but beyond that, he is
horrifying and he is also goingtop tier.
I feel like I would get shot ifI didn't put Freddy Krueger in
(14:38):
the top tier.
I, and he's not going in the toptier because I'm afraid of
getting shot.
He's going in the top tierbecause I think he belongs
there.
All right.
We have Heart eyes.
Heart Eyes came out earlier thisyear and it's a movie by Josh
Rubin, whom I fucking love.
I think Josh Rubin is so funny.
I saw his movie, I think it'scalled Scare Me or something
(14:59):
like that.
I really enjoyed that.
It's like a single location,they're just telling scary
stories kind of movie.
That one's really fun.
so yeah, I like Josh Rubin,heart Eyes as a movie.
It was fine.
But I do like heart eyes',character design.
I don't know if I'm the minorityon this one, but, his mask, it's
like, this helmet kind of thingwith two heart eye cutouts and
(15:22):
they're lit up like with likered LEDs and I just think that's
cute.
It is topical.
You know, the heart eyes is aValentine's Day slasher.
So if it fits with a theme Ijust, I just like the look.
I don't know exactly what it is.
It's probably the lights.
I like shiny things, but I amgonna put heart eyes, uh, you
can shoot me.
I'm gonna put'em up and slateit.
(15:42):
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
I just, I really like that mask.
I think it's cute in a scarykind of way.
So there's that.
Oof.
Okay, so now we're moving on toJason Vorhees.
Now Jason Vorhees has, threelooks that I'm gonna talk about.
We're gonna first talk aboutSack head, Jason from Friday the
(16:04):
13th, part two.
This is before Jason gets thehockey mask.
It's where he's wearing like apotato sack or something.
A burlap sack over his head withthe one eye cut out.
Very similar to one of thestrangers.
the, the daddy stranger has asack over his head too.
I do like Jason's a little bitmore.
I think it's a bit scarier.
(16:25):
There's this one shotspecifically towards the end
where the final girl, Ginny isin like some shed or Shaq or
something, and we see behind herthrough the window Jason and all
of his sack headed glory runningtowards the shack.
And it's scary.
It's, it's a really scary shot.
Is the sac head as iconic as thehockey mask?
(16:47):
No.
And for that reason, I can't putit in top tier.
I do think I am gonna put it, insecond tier.
She slayed.
I'll put it behind Carrie White.
'cause it's good, it's scary.
It's just not the best.
But speaking of the vest, wehave.
Hockey mask Jason, which isJason as we all know and love
him in the majority of hismovies.
(17:07):
obviously he's gonna go on thetop tier.
Call Robert one right now.
Jason was my favorite growing upwhen I was a, a scared little
gay boy watching horror movies.
I found him to be the scariest.
The hockey mask was fun.
And it's just iconic.
You know, I think outside of thehorror sphere, I find that a lot
of people when they referenceslasher movies, they reference
(17:30):
the slasher killer wearing ahockey mask.
They don't identify Jason byname, but it's always like a
hockey mask.
And so I think that has to giveus something.
I think the hockey mask, Jasonhas moved beyond.
The horror landscape into awider pop culture, level of
understanding and, andvisibility.
(17:51):
So he has to go in the top tier.
And then our final one is UberJason from Jason X.
So Jason X honestly, acriminally over hated Friday
movie, in my opinion.
A lot of people don't like itand they think it's trash, which
like, I'm not gonna tell you howto feel, but I will.
Argue for this movie.
(18:12):
I think Jason X is fun.
I love Jason goes to space.
I think it's just really cheekyand it's something new for the
franchise and I just love havingthis this relic of the eighties
of like, you know, camp Slashersthrown into a futuristic kind of
environment.
I, it's, it's really fun.
(18:32):
It's really playful.
and so Uber, Jason, how UberJason comes about is, he gets
like shot or obliterated orsomething.
They think that they kill him,but futuristic technology, they
have nanobots that are able torepair and replace tissue to
heal people.
It's a, it's a medical thing andas it turns out, they killed
(18:52):
Jason Voorhees.
Right next to the Nanobotmachine.
So those nanobots come out andthey put Jason back together and
they replace a lot of his tissuewith metal and shit.
And we end up with this big Hulkin metal masked daddy is, fuck
Jason.
Don't judge me.
But it's hot.
I, I think it's, it's kind ofhot.
(19:15):
I like Uber, Jason and I I,everybody's going up here, but
he's going and slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
I'm gonna put him above Megan.
Don't shoot me for that one.
I really like Uber, Jason.
I think it's just a fun variantof Jason Vhe as we know him.
All righty, bride ofFrankenstein.
she's cty as fuck.
(19:36):
I love the bride ofFrankenstein, first off, she's
gorgeous.
This woman is beautiful and hersilhouette.
Iconic the hair with a whitestripe.
Wonderful.
Her white gown, getup,dignified, elegant, cutesy,
sexy.
She's going in the top tier.
Gosh, I must be really.
(19:57):
Really in a good mood today'cause everybody is getting
ranked pretty high, but I thinkBride of Frankenstein totally
deserves it.
She's stunning and she walked soother horror icons could run.
Let's be honest.
She's like the blueprint andspeaking of the bride of
Frankenstein being a blueprint,we're gonna talk about Tiffany
(20:17):
Valentine from the bride ofChucky.
First I have Tiffany Valentinein human form when she's her
sexy corseted trailer park.
Live-in blonde babe.
I love her style.
I think she is so sexy, this isvery, very hot.
So Tiffany in human form isgoing to go and slate it.
No, really Call 9 1 1 and she'sgonna have to go at the top, at
(20:40):
the top of that tier.
Move over Carrie.
There we go.
Yes, Tiffany Valentine.
I'm, uh, this also might getrearranged.
If it's too top heavy, I mayhave to bump some bitches down.
We'll see.
But right now we have a solid 11of the 13 that I've talked about
so far, or in the top two tiers.
So, whoops.
(21:01):
We'll see if that changes.
Now we have doll Tiffany anddoll Tiffany.
I see so many gay boys dressedas Tiffany for Halloween.
I don't know how I feel aboutthat.
But that's just, it's, I, she'siconic.
Everybody wants to be her.
Everybody wants to be dollTiffany, and I get it.
(21:24):
Barbie, eat your heart out.
Although I will say I do thinkthat in bride of Chucky doll,
Tiffany looks more like TaraReed than she does Jennifer
Tilley, but that's besides thepoint.
She still looks great.
I was very upset when she gotthrown into the oven and that's
how I know she belongs in thetop tier.
because I was so attached to herlook that it physically pained
(21:46):
me when she got thrown in theoven, got burnt to a crisp and
did not look like that anymore.
Very upsetting.
Very upsetting.
All right, so we're going fromTiffany to Chucky.
I have two Chuckies.
We have classic Chucky.
This is our Chucky from child'splay, one, two, and three.
He's fine.
Redheaded.
Good guy, doll.
(22:06):
I, I like Chucky better whenhe's animated as Chucky when
he's just that fuck ass dollwith a big ass head.
I don't like it as much, butwhen he's up and moving, he's
cute.
He's fun, he's iconic.
he used to scare me when I was akid, but I know a lot of people
who are still scared by him.
I'm gonna have to throw Chuckyin.
Slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
(22:26):
he's not quite my favorite, mosticonic in his classic form, but
I feel like it would be adisservice to not put him higher
up because he is a very, veryrecognizable horror character,
and the overall in red shoes arejust to die for.
But next we're moving on toFrank and Chucky, whom I am
(22:48):
going to throw in our top tier,Frank and Chucky.
This is Chucky from Bride ofChucky through, I guess
technically.
Cult of Chucky.
but this is the Chucky that'sall stitched together, of
course, paying homage toFrankenstein, the inspiration to
bride of Chucky.
So I like that.
I think it's clever.
I think it's cute.
I think it makes a lot of sensewith the story considering how
(23:09):
Chucky had died in child's playthree.
And also just like if you werealive in the nineties, that
motherfucker's face waseverywhere, everywhere promoting
that movie.
So yes, he's, he's iconic.
He's going in our top tier callRobert won right now, like a
wonderful character design.
Okay.
(23:30):
Be Boul is from sinister.
if you haven't seen sinister,it's probably one of my favorite
horror movies of all time.
It is one of the horror moviesthat genuinely as an adult,
scared the shit out of me.
Boul is the big bad of thatmovie, and.
He is also kind of sexy.
Oh my God.
This is turning into just likewhether or not I would fuck
(23:53):
these people.
Ugh.
Maybe that's why so many of themare top tier.
But I'm sorry, he's sexy.
He's in his suit.
He has the top buttonunbuttoned.
He has like scraggly hair, andhis face is terrifying.
He's gonna have to go and slateit.
No, really?
Call 9 1 1 2.
Uh, this is so top heavyeverybody.
(24:13):
I, I'm just gonna recap rightnow.
So.
In our Topes tier, our TippetyTippety top tier, we have
Pinhead from Hella Raiser.
Billy the Puppet.
Freddy Krueger Hockey Mask,Jason, the bride of
Frankenstein, doll.
Tiffany and Franken.
Chucky, and then in our secondtier, slate it.
No, really call 9 1 1.
We have classic Chucky.
(24:34):
Human.
Tiffany Valentine, AKA,Jennifer, Tilly, Carrie, white S
head, Jason, Uber, Jason Baggo,Megan and heart eyes.
Hmm.
I think before I move forward Imight rearrange some things.
I think heart, eyes.
I am gonna move down one tocostume party realness.
The more I sit with it, the moreI'm like, it's cute, but it's,
(24:55):
it's been one movie.
I don't think it's likeSuperduty, iconic.
And with that I'm also probablygonna move the strangers down
to, she's a full on Monet, so wejust moved two down.
Let me see what else.
Oh, I don't know if I have theheart to move anybody else down
lower.
Guys, this is a problem.
Are you gonna be mad at me iflike everybody is highly ranked?
(25:19):
That's not interesting.
That just makes me a lover.
I mean, I love being a lover.
Oh my God.
I did not expect to fall into anexistential crisis during this.
Okay.
Listen, not everybody can makevarsity sack head.
Jason, you're gonna go down tocostume party realness.
(25:39):
I know you were scary, but therewas, there really wasn't
anything identifiable about you.
Actually, I'm just like, Iranked you higher just because
of that one shot with yourunning towards Ginny.
Alright.
I think that's it.
Okay.
I think, I think we're good.
Okay.
So I moved, just to recap.
I moved Heart Eyes and s Zachhad Jason down to our third tier
(26:03):
caution party Realness, and thenI moved the strangers down to
our fourth tier.
She's a full on Monet.
I might do this again.
We'll see.
But anyway, forward and onward.
We're gonna move on to our nextbay.
We're gonna move on toGhostface.
Ghostface is kind of a queen.
There's a lot of swooshingfabric.
It's a little sparkly.
(26:24):
I don't know if y'all clockedthat The fabric of the ghost
face costume is quite sparklyand shiny.
Which I like.
Of course, the, the, the faceitself is iconic and it's gonna
have to, I just moved a bunch ofpeople down so I could put
Ghostface in the top tier.
Ghostface is really an icon.
I love it.
It is scary.
(26:44):
I remember the first time Iwatched Scream ghost face scared
the shit out of me.
I actually couldn't look at themasks without like being afraid.
instantly recognizable.
We all, the, the ghost face issynonymous with Scream, so we
have to, all right, up next wehave the tethered from us.
these are the people that liveunderground and then have their
uprising.
(27:04):
To kill their doppelgangers.
you know, it's like a, it'salmost like a prison uniform.
It's bright red, which is alovely color.
I personally don't think I lookgood in red.
I, I don't really wear red thatmuch.
But Lupita Django looks great inred, and I think, well, the
character's name is red, sothere's also that.
(27:24):
kind of culty looking, whichtugs at a little special place
in my heart.
It is quite basic and it's notreally that scary So I'm gonna
have to, I'm gonna put it in.
She's a full-on Monet.
It's not terrible.
But it's not amazing.
There are impactful moments tothis look it's more impactful
when you see.
All of the tethered togetherwearing this red'cause it feels
(27:46):
very culty.
It feels very like you're beingoutnumbered.
That's cool.
But on an individual level it'sjust, you know, it's kind of
pedestrian.
Candyman, ugh, candy man's.
Ugh.
I love Tony Todd.
Rest in peace.
Tony.
Todd.
Tony.
Todd's fucking incredible.
(28:07):
And Candyman is also reallysexy.
Oh, ooh.
That's what this is.
It's like the, the, the sexappeal tier list ranking.
It's not about fashion anymore.
It's about how fuckable theyare.
Oh, I can't disrespect Tony Toddlike that.
He has to at least go slay that.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
I mean the hook hand iswonderful.
(28:28):
Much better than the Fisherman'sHook hand'cause it's like in his
body.
And then the coat is just sosexy and like the, the frilly
white shirt underneath it.
And I mean, Tony Todd is justlike handsome.
And then the bees, we have thebees, which is wonderful.
So Candyman is going to go inour second tier.
Slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
(28:49):
Up next we have the Urban LegendKiller.
Now, if you're having a hardtime remembering what the Urban
Legend Killer looks like, that'skind of my point here.
it's a parka.
That's it.
It's just a hooded fuzzy coat.
I live in New York City.
I see these everywhere.
There's nothing scary about it.
So our first ever bottom tierspirit Halloween clearance is
(29:13):
going to the killer from urbanlegend in that fucking parka.
Very underwhelming, verypedestrian.
Nothing chic or scary about it.
Ugh.
Okay.
Whew.
Now I feel better.
I feel better now that I putsomebody in the bottom tier.
It feels like a real tear listnow.
(29:33):
All right.
We only have six left, so wehave a leprechaun.
That little shit box.
Um, is he like, is it iconic?
Sure.
I mean, it's a little top hatwith like little.
Fussy shoes and stuff, I mean,he's gross, which plays in his
favor, but I don't, I had toreally dig to think about him,
to put him on this list.
(29:53):
So it didn't really stick withme, him as a killer.
Yes, there is the whole being ontheme thing with like him being
a leprechaun, I don't even knowif that's a theme.
That's just him.
What the fuck am I talkingabout?
Anyway, he's gonna go on costumeparty realness.
Like it's, it's okay.
Not my favorite.
Doesn't really stand out but ithas some good, fun details in
(30:15):
there.
So that's that I.
Okay.
The Black Bride from Insidious,this is the last, horror movie
villain that I pulled before Istarted recording.
I don't know how she ended up onmy list, if I'm being honest.
But she's here.
If you haven't seen Insidious,it's just, she's like a, a ghost
that's wearing all black.
(30:35):
With a black veil, spooky face.
She is scary.
When I saw Insidious, it didscare me, but I am going to dock
points due to the, transphobicnarrative of this character.
Not happy about that.
I don't remember which movie, Ithink it was Insidious Two or
whatever, By the time that moviecame out, we as a society should
(30:58):
have moved far beyond.
The, trans killer trope.
I'm over it.
It's reductive.
It's uninspired, it's harmful,so the black bride is gonna go
in spirit Halloween clearance,pretty much based on that,
that's probably why she ended upon my list because I wanted to
(31:20):
shit on the whole transnarrative that they shoehorned
in there for that character Sounnecessary.
Stupid, harmful, all right.
Next we have, ooh, other motherfrom Coralline.
We have two variants of thisone.
We have the basic other motherwith her fucking sweater, her
button eyes, and her oven mitts.
(31:41):
She's cute.
There is like a bit of a storythere, but again, it, it is
quite pedestrian.
I do love the button eyes,though.
I think the button eyes are awonderful, wonderful touch in,
building these characters and inbuilding this, this world.
So she's not gonna go fully inthe bottom.
I'm gonna put her in.
She's a full on Monet for thebasic other, their mother.
there's some stuff there, butoverall it's just kind of meh.
(32:03):
But when we go into the FierceOther Mother, after she
transformed, when she's allspidery and spindly and her fuck
ass Bob just gets like way moresevere.
That's scary.
If I was a child watching thatmovie, I would've shit myself.
And it's quite cunty and I mean,let's be honest, skinny legend.
(32:24):
So, she's gonna go and costumeparty realness because I do
appreciate her.
She doesn't carry enough, iconicstatus to hang with like the big
swingers that we have, likeFrank and Chucky and Carrie and
stuff, but.
You know, she's good.
I like, I like her look.
So costume party realness.
Up next, our penultimate fashionvictim is Leatherface
(32:48):
Leatherface.
I also, I specifically chose theLeatherface in a suit at the end
of Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Arguably like.
Such a, a beautiful shot when,when what's her fuck gets away
in the back of the truck andleather faces swinging the, the
chainsaw around and the sunsetting.
(33:09):
It's gorgeous.
Oh God, am I about to do what Idid with Sack head, Jason, and
base this all off of one shot?
Maybe, I don't know.
But like this leather face islike, again, I, I love a bitch
in a suit.
We talked about this also.
I just love that she's paintedthe, the face.
She's wearing makeup.
She's trying here, she's puttingin an effort.
(33:31):
And I just also have such a softspot for, for leather face, so
I'm gonna have to put leatherface in, slate it.
No, really call 9 1 1.
No second to top tier.
Just'cause I have so much loveand respect for leather face,
for the, look for the suit.
It's, it's, she's wearing herdinner.
Best everybody.
I can't shit on that.
(33:51):
And last but not least, we haveMichael Myers.
Ooh.
Okay.
So I have a little bit of aconfession to make and ooh,
y'all might come for me on thisone, but, um, I don't like
Michael Myers.
I find him incredibly boring andI know, I know Michael Myers is
(34:14):
Iconic on everyone's horror,Mount Rushmore.
I get that.
You know, and I have a lot ofrespect for Halloween and how it
influenced the horror genre.
I think that's all fuckinggreat.
And I really like the firstHalloween movie.
I think the first Halloweenmovie is wonderful, and I do
like Michael Myers in thatmovie, but I think as a
(34:36):
franchise and just the mask.
Oftentimes looks just goofy asfuck in a lot of these movies.
And that's just it.
It's like a mechanics jumpsuitwith a William Shatner mask.
And is it iconic?
Yes.
If I saw him in my apartmentright now, I'd probably be
scared, but I just can't getpast the fact that compared to
(35:00):
so many other iconic.
Killers like Chucky and Freddieand the bride of Frankenstein
and Pinhead, he's justunderwhelming.
You know, uh, Michael Myers islike the equivalent of a
cisgender man showing up to theMet Gala in a tuxedo.
I.
For me, you know, like, where'sthe inspiration, where's the
(35:21):
excitement?
It's not there for me.
So in what is probably going tobe my most controversial ranking
here, I am going to put MichaelMyers in.
She's a full on Monet, Um, If itmakes you feel better, I put'em
at the top of the top of thattier, but.
I am just not excited by MichaelMyers.
I'm sorry.
I find him boring.
(35:41):
If you disagree with me, pleaselet me know.
Come at me in the comments.
Send me an email.
Tell me all the filthy thingsyou want to say.
I just, I will die on this hill,Oh my goodness.
Let's just recap one final time.
Our ranking of horror moviekiller look.
in our spirit Halloweenclearance, we have the Urban
(36:02):
Legend Killer wearing thefucking parka and then the black
bride from Insidious because ofall the transphobic bullshit.
Our next tier up, we have thefull on Monet.
We have the fishermen from, IKnow What You did last summer.
Nothing special there.
The strangers from, uh.
Oh, the strangers that is thename of their movie.
(36:24):
We have the tethered from us.
The basic other mother with herbuttoned eyes and her mom's
sweater and her fuck ass momhaircut.
And then we have Michael Myers,sorry, not sorry.
In, in our third tier costumeparty realness, we have heart
eyes, leprechaun sack head,Jason, and the Fierce other
mother, the one that looks likea fucking spider.
(36:44):
So cool.
Our second tier, slate it.
No, really.
Call 9 1 1.
We have Leatherface Candyman,Megan Boul from Sinister.
Uber, Jason Daddy, Carrie White,Tiffany Valentine in human form,
and then our classic Chucky, andthen our top tier, the big
(37:05):
hitters of this game.
We have Ghostface Frank andChucky doll.
Tiffany, the bride ofFrankenstein Hockey mask, Jason
Freddy Krueger, Billy thePuppet, and Pinhead.
Wow, that was hard.
I did not expect to fall into anexistential crisis as quickly as
I did.
I don't think I'm gonna try tochange anything because if I do,
(37:28):
I'm just gonna be here allnight.
I.
Talking to you and talking tomyself, trying to justify moving
things around.
So this is where we're at rightnow.
I agree with myself.
If you disagree with me, pleaselet me know.
I would love to hear what yourrankings are for these horror
characters, and if I missed any,I.
Please shoot'em my way.
(37:49):
I will gladly do a round two ofthis.
I love doing tear lists.
It's a lot of fun because I justlove giving my opinion when
nobody asks for it anyway, staytuned for the continuation of
our franchise series.
i'm gonna get that cursiveChucky episode out to you as
(38:09):
soon as I possibly can.
Until next time, cuties, don'tbe scared unless you are into
that sort of thing.
Bye.
