I’ll go with Candyman. I can avoid saying Candyman three times in 24 hours. How hard can it be to not say Candyman?…F**k!
Jaws.I don’t live near the sea. .
I’ll take the aliens from Signs. Catch me in the lazy river with a super soaker.
As can be seen in this list, there are many horrorvillainspeople think aren’t so dangerous. While, yes, they are usually pretty deadly, they also have certain weaknesses that make them survivable, at least for 24 hours.Another thing you can notice in the list is that we, as a species, are quite obsessed with things that scare us. It takes dedication to create such a variety of villains, and just think about the fact that these are only those people think are survivable!To talk about this fascination with horror and other similar things,Bored Pandareached out to horror filmmakerSarahof Horror. Check out theprojectsandorganizationsshe isinvolvedin!Essentially, Sarah said that people love the feeling of being scared without actually being in danger. “If we take the very popular horror subgenre, the slasher film, a lot of us love seeing the creative kills and gore. We get to see these fantastic SFX while knowing that what we see is fake.”As a horror filmmaker herself, she’s interested in knowing how theseSFXare made and seeing how it all comes together on the screen.

Freddy. We came to an understanding long ago when I was laying in my bed after watching A Nightmare on Elm Street when I was a kid. I just said “you know Freddy, we cool, you’re not bad, in fact I just think you’re misunderstood, please don’t invade my dreams and kill me.” I haven’t died yet so I’m still working under the assumption the we cool.
Dracula. My skin is so pale and I eat so much garlic all I need to do is flash him and say hello and he’ll disintegrate.
Another thing that makes a horror story captivating, in Sarah’s opinion, is “when it truly feels like you would have almost zero chance of surviving an encounter with the villain in question.” As an example, she gave Art The Clown from “Terrifier.” He is very unpredictable and brutal, which makes making it out alive or killing him seem almost impossible.
As an additional example, she mentioned Jason Voorhes again, especially in later installments of the Friday The 13th franchise, where, due to a supernatural element, he comes back tolifeand is basically invincible.
The predator. I’m weak and a woman no predator would risk being made fun of for killing such a pathetic prey.
I have actually thought about this a lot ever since I read Christine way too young. I think it will be quite easy to stay safe from a possessed car.
Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs. I’m not his size.
Michael Myers or Jason. Those a******s just walk everywhere. I’d go on a road trip in my car. Maybe circle around a few times to honk at them and flip them off.
Paul Reiser’s character from Aliens. He’s the real villain of the movie, not the Alien Queen, and I think I could take him.
Probably the ring, she takes like 7days to show up. I don’t even have to change my habits.
The killer from scream bc it’s literally just a guy in a mask. Get some pepper spray and I’m golden.
The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man.I’ll just catch a flight somewhere, he’ll never catch me. Also, he’s easy to see.
Graboids. I can sit on a boulder for 24 hours.
Zombies. I can hide from a Zombie for 24hrs.
Plankton.
Easy, the mummy. He can’t bend his legs, so he’s definitely gonna run slowly.

Tempted to say the babadook bc i could just buy and feed him worms, so I not only get the money, but also an insanely awesome and relatively cheap pet.

Easy. Regina George from “Mean Girls”.
I think I’d go with Death Bed: The Bed That Eats, from 1977’s Death Bed: The Bed That Eats, because Death Bed: The Bed That Eats is a bed.
The merman from “Cabin in the woods”. Easily escapable.
The xenomorph from Alien. I don’t think it can get here to earth in 24 hours and I sure the hell not going to space.
Sharon stone from basic instinct because if I fail at least it’s a good way to go out.
Chucky.
Scary Terry B***h. Just gotta remember homie’s pants and we are solid.
Lets go with Jason. I want to earn the money.
Capitalism, from the movie Parasite.
Well no stipulation on what is “horror” or “villain”, so I will go with Torgo, the “horror” “villian” of Manos. Seems easy to outrun. Maybe he can share whatever he is on and just chill.
