What horror villains would you want to see in situations from other horror films? How do you think they would fare? My examples: Art the Clown in The Purge Jason in Army of Darkness Mick Taylor in The Hunt Otis Driftwood in Would You Rather Peter and Paul in 28 Days Later ---

> [@Cmyers1980](#): > > Jason in Army of Darkness How about this? > **[Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freddy_vs._Jason_vs._Ash)** > > Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash is a six-issue comic book limited series that was released in November 2007 and ran until March 2008. It was published by Wildstorm (DC Comics) and Dynamite Entertainment. Based on the original Freddy vs. Jason 2 film treatment by Jeff Katz, the story serves as a sequel to Freddy vs. Jason and the Evil Dead trilogy. The comic book series was written by James Kuhoric and illustrated by Jason Craig. > Set in December 2008, 5 years after the events of the film Freddy vs. Jaso... Pinhead in the various “Human Centipede” (blech) movies, because he’d show those people the _real_ meaning of the search for true excess. And I hate those movies, so, I totally wish the interest of the Cenobites on them. ---

I know ‘Freddy vs. Jason’ has already been done, but how about a movie where Freddy works with both Jason and Michael Myers, counseling them, kind of like a horror villain acting coach: “Look guys, the ‘silent, implacable killer’ thing has been done to death (haha, pun intended). Frankly, it’s kind of boring. Audiences these days want to see a killer with a little personality. Taunt your victims. Add some color commentary to the stalking and killing. At the moment you kill them, a pun-based quip related to the method you use to make the kill is always a nice touch. Above all, have fun with it! You want your enjoyment in your craft to come through to the audience.” ---

Jason stares at Freddy and silently points to the screen behind them, where videos of their kills are played as Freddy gives feedback, the following image pauses in play: [![](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jason_lives_funny.jpg) ](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jason_lives_funny.jpg) No one knows if his lips even twitch behind the mask. ---

I would like to see the current US administration, and I use that term loosely, in _Airport!_ They would not have to break caracter. Hannibal Lecter doing a cameo on _Hot, Sour, Salty, Sweet_ would be a treat. ---

> [@Der\_Trihs](#): > > The Blob versus the Zombie Apocalypse. The Blob just keeps getting bigger and bigger and _bigger_ as the endless horde of zombies shambles into it… Did you ever see **Slither**? (2006). It’s a sort of mashup of lots of horror tropes, with a threat in a meteorite (as in both versions of **The Blob** ) that releases a sort of larval intermediate form (a la the Face-Hugger from the **Alien** movies) that infects a guy and gradually turns him into an alien thing (sorta like **The Thing** , but more like the creatures in **The Quatermass Xperiment/The creeping Unknown** or **Xtro** ) who uses human beings as incubators (as in **Xtro** , again) to create a vertiable army of creepy crawly sluglike things (as in **The Deadly Spawn** ) that go into people’s mouths and turn them into zombies (as in all the **Living Dead** movies, or **Invasion of the Body Snatchers** or **The Puppet Masters** ) that are under the control of the original intelligence (as in **The Puppet Masters** or **Quatermass 2/Enemy from Space** ). Well, at one point there’s a scene where the slug-zombies are all walking into the blob-like extended body of the overall monster, swelling its size. So you already have a screen maifestation of your idea. I’ve looked for a YouTube clip of the scene, but I can’t find one. But watch the movie – it stars Nathan Fillion! > **[Slither (2006 film)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slither_(2006_film))** > > Slither is a 2006 science fiction comedy horror film written and directed by James Gunn in his directorial debut.

The Riddler is handed the Lament Configuration. He starts idly playing with it and easily causes the first shift to occur. Noticing the shift in the atmosphere he stops and looks at the box. _Really_ looks at it. Given that his thing is not only creating and solving puzzles but understanding them as well, it doesn’t take him long to discover the nature of the box and its deeper repercussions. He laughs and tosses it back to the one who gave it to him. “An amusing little puzzle,” he says. “The only real solution is not to solve it.”
