Halloween Monster Movie Playlist

Great list, though the blog title should have been "You Play A Good Roleplaying Game, Boy..."

I'd prefer not knowing the Wickerman is at all based on the 2006 Wickerman movie. ;)

I always felt that Oogie Boogie from The Nightmare Before Christmas was a Worm That Walks living inside a Skinstitch.

Ooh. *makes a note*

NOT THE BEES!!!!!

[...]or going out with your fiends[...]

Nice "typo"!

And some good-looking art!

I'm sure most other Kytons are inspired by the Hellraiser movies :-p

Night Hags which are inspired by Nocnitsa cover mostly the dream haunting Freddy Kruger.

But those are from D&D of course, not Paizo creations.

And I really thought this would be a Bestiary 5 sneak preview!

If only Bestiary 5 could have something that covers It and The Thing!

Man Prince of Darkness is such an underappreciated John Carpenter classic. I mean Alice Cooper as a creepy possessed homeless person, what's not to love? I think the Immortal Ichor will be featuring prominently in an upcoming campaign I'm dreaming up.

Thanks for noticing. :)

Yeah, Adamn, while I respect ya man, you've got something terrible wrong. Godzilla is not a horror movie series.

Please don't lump ToHo's work with a movie genre that's essentially full of one trick pony plotlines and one-sided coin villains.

It was about monster movies! Not only horror!

And they forgot Coloxus me thinks, its kinda like the fly?

There's a pretty good analogue for The Thing in Legendary Games' Mythic Monsters 17 - Aliens called the Qomok. CR 14/MR 5, but mythic monsters don't mean you have to have mythic players at all.

Ah I see what you meant now with the message :-p

Thanks for the heads-up, but still hope a bestiary gets The Thing in one of its pages for the collection!

There was no Wickerman remake.

Called it with the Xenopterid! I love the Mimic, pity the sequels all sucked.

I hear ya both. I questioned whether I should include it, but I figured it's easier to commiserate than suffer criticism for *not* including it. :)

To be fair, it was one of the great comedies of our time.

Nice list but you guys forgot a lot creatures like flesh golem for Frankenstein's monster, vampires, the mummy, there are many fishmen that could be the creature from the black lagoon. You can't tell me the brain ooze wasn't inspired by some old sci-fi/horror movie.

I would really love to see Paizo's take on It and the Thing.

As a Halloween treat, here's a list of ten monsters from our bestiaries that made their debut on the silver screen. For this list I tried to stick to things that were strictly movie-based instead of things from folklore that happen to be the monstrous stars of horror movies, otherwise this list would be full of vampires, werewolves, flesh golems...

I would so love a Huge wickerman mini...

Can y'all please stop reminding me about Mimic?

*shudders*

I would also really love the Chimera from the B-Horror movie The Relic, the one that decapitates its victims.

Also the beating-heart rat-like humanoid monster that feeds on hearts with the annoying,creeping heartbeat from the movie Split Second.

And maybe the creature from the deep from the movie with Famke Jansen on that boat, Deep Rising.

Well,

Some people complain about referencing the Wickerman remake.

That's how I feel about referncing the 2005 fog vs the original.

The Mist (2005) is my favorite horrormovie of all time. Hands off!

Not the Mist, the crappy Fog Remake with Tom Welling.

Fun Fact, prior to H20, the Fog was the only movie Janet Leigh and Jamie Leigh Curtis appeared in together.

OH, didn't even know there was a real The Fog remake! Lol

Ugh... it's bad. Really bad.

I wish I didn't know about it also.

That Fog remake is on my Netflix que. I'm guessing I should delete and forget about it before I ruin my psyche.

You must make a flying shark from Sharknado (I, II, III, [IV?]...)

It's a wanna-be Lovecraftian Thing. What's not to adore about this cute little critter? ;)

I once fought a wild shaped Druid in shark form with sky swim. Does that count?
