MONSTERS THAT SCARE ME
THE MOST
Thank
you for having me on the blog today. I'm truly honored to be here with all of
you! With the day of the dead approaching fast, let's have a look at some of
the scariest movie monsters ever.
DOPPELGÄNGERS
A
doppelgänger is a person's physical double. Seeing one's own doppelgänger often
heralds death or serious illness. Paranormal investigators believe that the
doppelgänger is an individual's past or future self. In some traditions, the
double has no shadow or reflection.
Here
are two seriously creepy horror movies about doppelgängers...

Broken (2009): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBbVSlVUiio
Dream
Lover (1986): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMa9s-gYxyc
EVIL KIDS
There's
something undeniably scary about children gone evil whether it's through
vampirism ("Salem's Lot"), radioactivity ("The Children Of
Ravensback"), aliens ("Village Of The Damned") or just plain
insanity ("Devil Times Five", "We Need To Talk About Kevin”,
"The Good Son").
The
following are my favorite evil kids movies...
The
Children Of Ravensback (1980): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8aJDLCFzo8
Bloody
Birthday (1981): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpiELzyx-Xc
¿Quien
puede matar a un niño? (aka Who Can Kill A Child?, aka Island Of The
Damned)(1976): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-GQThxd3DE&feature=related
THE UNDEAD
As
Jud Crandall says in Pet Sematary: « Sometimes dead is better. » Many
close friends and family members have seen recently deceased people in their
homes, but somehow these real-life encounters with the undead are never as
scary as in the movies.
Ringu
(1998): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbj-Ihy3ncQ
Let's
Scare Jessica To Death (1971): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cX4eZD3GiL0
The
Shining (1980): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Cb3ik6zP2I&feature=related

A Good Man
Louis Caron is a good man: a vegetarian who feeds the homeless, takes
care of animals and is concerned with the ecological future of the planet. But
his altruism has a sinister edge – he's a vampire – and local detective
Taglioni is becoming increasingly suspicious. Louis' attempt to escape the
police will take him on a journey into his own private hell where he is not
only forced to confront his worst fears, but also to destroy the lives of those
he cares about most.
A GOOD MAN is out NOW at:

Thanks for joining me today, Vanessa! I've been a fan of monster movies since I was a little kid. I have to say the alien in the Alien films is one of my favorites.
I think some of the scariest monsters are the creepy, evil children in books & film. Nothing innocent about them at all & that chills my blood.

Interesting post. Don't have any favorite monsters.

I have to say that the most frightening scenarios is the evil child - just gives me the willies thinking about them. Maybe this comes from seeing The Bad Seed as a child LOL Thank you for sharing the spooky fun with us today.

When I first saw the question about monsters I immediately thought of Vampires (of course)! Though the monsters that scare me the most are the creepy children in scary movies... *shiver* & now that's what I am thinking about the most after reading this post, lol.
