Scary Monsters
— Ace

John Hawkins once again gets a list completely wrong in noting the supposed "Top Ten Horror Villains."

Many of you might remember Korla Pundit's classic post showing Democrats as separated-at-birth from monsters featured on magazines like Fangoria or Monsters of Filmland.

Well, he's done a sequel, just in time for Halloween.

And I'm sure it will surprise none of you learn that Hillary Clinton has been determined to be the scariest political mask this Halloween.

Awesome: Dumb ghost pictures. So why is it awesome? Because I remember a lot of these from my childhood, from In Search Of and all the various "real ghosts!" books in the school library.

Thanks to Hot Air.

Also Hot Air reminded me of this, my favorite "re-cut trailer" clip of all time. I've posted it before -- twice, I think -- but no one seemed as jazzed about it as I was. I think it's brilliant.

It's frickin' scary.

1 I love Hawkins, really. But his taste in music and movies is like a 15 year old boys.

2 Hawkins leaves a bad taste in my mouth ever since he decided to fuck with Goldstein. That said, the list is pretty average for an internet top 10. Some hits, some misses.

Speaking of scary -- David Lee Roth meets Crunchy Frog:

I was into dumb ghost pictures as a kid, too, but I don't remember moose and sanitary anal sex having anything to do with it.

7 (not that I'm saying sanitary anal sex isn't awesome or anything...)

8 Agree on the trailer. Very cool.

Hmmm. AOS already covered the Hillary Halloween story -- her turn as Rosa Klebb in last night's Democratic debate. Or didn't you recognize her costume?

Seemed pretty obvious to us.

10 yeah, the fact that hawkins finds pro wrestling and the insane clown posse wicked cool makes me question any list he makes or article he writes.

11 Eh, I'm not gonna dismiss everything he does, but he absolutely has the worst taste in entertainment I think I've ever seen, that is indisputable. I was gonna rip apart his South Park top 10...I may still do that.
