Top 5 Old-School Killas
There is nothing quite like a horror movie killer debate. Who's the strongest? Most vicious? Shows the most mercy? Can Michael Myers beat up Jason? Does Pinhead seem a shade snobby?
Countless hours were spent with neighborhood kids breaking these homicidal freaks down- their strengths and weaknesses. Each with his unique personality and method but bound by a common thread: the ability to persevere despite adversity. These guys have been stabbed in the head, blown up, run over, and drowned, yet they manage to pick up where they left off each time. Props especially to Jason who made it through 8 movies.
This list is more of the informative nature as the other staffers, as far as I know, have little or no knowledge of this genre because they are too scared to watch.
- Leatherface
--only cannibal of the bunch, very low IQ, maintains strong familial ties, non-athlete, main weapon: chainsaw
- Jason Vorhees

- Michael Myers

- Freddy Krueger

- Pinhead

Don't forget another killa with a significant other: Frankenstein. But I guess that's TOO old-school...
