Which horror movie monsters deserved a sequel?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Movie studios don’t usually let franchise potential go unfulfilled, but some of the scariest horror movie monsters only ever appeared in one film and never got a sequel. Usually, when a movie monster is popular, Hollywood keeps bringing it back for sequel after sequel until it loses all its impact. After the success of Jaws, Universal brought in a bunch of other bloodthirsty sharks for a string of sequels.
The flying saucer was one of the earliest visual interpretations of what first contact with aliens might look like, but Jordan Peele cooked up a brand-new take on the flying saucer concept for his spectacle-skewering sci-fi blockbuster Nope. In Nope, the flying saucer isn’t the ship that the aliens arrived in; it’s the alien itself. The Haywoods set out to capture the alien on film and find that it’s much more beautiful than it initially seemed.
The ending of Hereditary felt like the beginning of a new story. Paimon finally made it to the surface world in a human vessel, surrounded by his cult followers, ready to launch his sinister reign. Another Paimon movie could explore the impact of his earthly arrival. 7 The Wendigo Antlers Antlers R From producer Guillermo Del Toro, Antlers centers on a middle-school teacher and a sheriff of a small town who realizes one of her students is experiencing horrifying encounters with an ancestral creature. Crazy Heart and Black Mass director Scott Cooper helm the film with a cast consisting of Keri Russell, Jesse Plemons, and Jeremy T. Thomas.
Director Guillermo del Toro Release Date January 19, 2007 Cast Sergi López , Doug Jones , Ivana Baquero , Ariadna Gil , Maribel Verdú Runtime 118 minutes From the titular demonic vigilante in Hellboy to the Amphibian Man in The Shape of Water to the Judas breed in Mimic, Guillermo del Toro is responsible for creating some of the most iconic movie monsters of all time. Arguably the creepiest of them all is “The Pale Man” from his twisted fairytale Pan’s Labyrinth.
4 The Mother Barbarian Barbarian R In Barabarian, Tess travels to Detroit for a job interview, booking an Airbnb to stay at. When she discovers the rental is currently occupied by a man named Keith , who also supposedly booked the property, Tess agrees to stay the night while they sort things out. However, her reservations for Keith are the least of her worries - as she soon discovers the home is not what it seems.
Director James Cameron Release Date July 18, 1986 Cast Sigourney Weaver , Michael Biehn , Carrie Henn , Paul Reiser , Lance Henriksen , Bill Paxton , William Hope , Jenette Goldstein Runtime 137 minutes The xenomorphs can be seen in every Alien movie, not just the first one. H.R. Giger’s truly otherworldly vision of a vicious, malevolent extraterrestrial entity is the defining image of inhumanity.
