Hollywoods monsters

dont know if anyone else has noticed this but hollywood appears to be making some of the mroe ridiculous concepts into monsters.For instance Mothman prophecies.Now i know id probably hide in a closest for 3 days if i ever saw it having not seen it makes me simply laugh at the idea of a horror movie featuring a killer mothguy or even oen of the various killer clown movies.In short just wodnering what the most ridiculous movie monsters hollywoods made.

Re: Hollywoods monsters

the Chuds... man, I hate chuds... :getlost:

 
Re: Hollywoods monsters

What are chuds? I hear the word, but never the definition...
 
Re: Hollywoods monsters

Hey, don't go racking down on the Mothman. Sure, a big moth might be redicilous as a "monster", but if you research the events that occured around the Mothman*... it's bloody freaky. After watching the movie and researching for a while... never been that creeped out in my entire life.

The movie isn't about a giant moth guy who kills people, it is more of a thriller movie. You actually never get to see it, you just... know it is there, which is the most scary concept of the movie. It prefers to.. for example, tell the future through phonecalls with a wierd, wierd voice...

*In REAL LIFE. Not some crappy Hollywood scheme, these things actually did happen in the REAL WORLD.

Besides, the "Mothman" doesn't really look like a half man half moth creature, it was just the... closest thing... as to what the people who have seen it could describe it.

The Simpsons

  • In the September 24, 1997 episode of The Simpsons, "The City of New York Vs. Homer Simpson", Homer Simpson's recollection of his first trip to New York City ended with "...and that's when the C.H.U.D.s came at me." Marge responds: "Of course you'll have a bad impression of New York if you only focus on the pimps and the C.H.U.D.s."
  • In another episode of The Simpsons, Homer—when falling from a building with Otto on a bungee cord—goes down into an open manhole and sees various underground creatures, including Morlocks (from H.G. Wells "The Time Machine"), CHUDS, and Molemen (with Hans Moleman as their leader).
  • In yet another Simpsons episode, "Crook and Ladder", a videocassette of the film is seen at the beginning of a chain of videocassette boxes used as dominoes.

Seems those guys making the Simpsons really like this movie.:ninja:

Nah, I doubt he'd kill you. As you might guess by the name, The Mothman "Prophecies", the Mothman was/is some sort of prophet that can tell the future and tells people about it in all sorts of creepy ways.

For example, he tells one dude something like "99 will die *some numbers*" (a real "The Shining" moment - the dude wakes up finding a note or something. Either way he has written down the message without knowing it) and the next day in the news paper there was 99 people kill when the air plane of flight *some numbers* crashed.
 
Re: Hollywoods monsters

God, I hate the mothman. It and a bunch of other creepy things scared the crap out of me for a week or two in fourth-sixth grade or so.

I had to do a project on the yeti, so I got a monster book... then I read it while at my cousins'. I should have remembered that to leave my cousins' house we drive through the pitch-dark state park or whatever. Then all the monsters haunted my nightime revels (okay, playing Sega late at night with my siblings, but that's as close to revels as I got for quite some time) for weeks.

I still remember the terrible glowing eyes of the Mothman as I played Sega Madden late at night. Curse you, demonically glowing doubled reflections of a nightlight!

Yeah, I scared even more easily then than I do now.

Heh, that's our Mothman. Strangley enough movie monsters like the Xenomorphs(That's their "real" name - funky huh?) Aliens of the Alien-movies won't ever come even close to as freaked out I was (and still am) of the Mothman, eventhough he isn't neither homicidal or lay eggs in our chests. Actually, he is a friendly sort because he tries to warn people about disasters... or is he?

The fact that his motive(s) and true nature is hidden is somewhat covered in mist is what freaks me out.
 
Re: Hollywoods monsters

I actually don't really know, since I haven't seen the movie. As I remember from the book, what he did was fly along above cars and make people's eyes burn (tear up) when they looked at his. I don't remember it every saying that he actually did anything.

Well, I remember once he told the future to some guy, which ended up with him having severe headache and bleeding in the ears... So while he means well, or whatever he means, he IS dangerous.

And nobody has ever said he predicts the future as a good deed - the ones he tells it to never has a chance to change it anyway... maybe he is just taunting or showing off his power... who knows.
 
Re: Hollywoods monsters

Yeah... I think we're talking about different things. The one I read about in the stupid book sounds very different from this movie.

Yeah probably. The book is also about more things than the Mothman, like mysterious "Men in Black"...?

I so want to read this darned book...
 
Re: Hollywoods monsters

I have no idea-- the only things I remember that were featured in it were the yeti, since I got it to do a project on the yeti; the Mothman, Lizzie Borden (the title of which chapter scared me so much I couldn't read it [cowardly grin]); and the Goatman (note the Goatman is this monster/psycho murderer story of southern Maryland, mostly on the suburbs of DC. No idea why it was in the book).

Don't remember the Men in Black being featured, though perhaps they were.
