Summerian and Babylonian major Air Spirit/Elemental, could cause and prevent plagues and famines. Protector of women in childbirth. Very agricultural dude. He looks creepy, as does Bathomet:

However...
He's actually related to the Hellenic God, Mendes, and in the Medieveal Occult traditions (Levi's in particular... and later Crowley) he's related to the Hermetic spin on the Tree of Life/Qabala. He's actually a Spirit of "Mercy" and "Justice."

Okay, so The Exorcist was really just a movie. Maybe Puzuzu didn't mind being a villain.


Damnit, Vod:D I wasn't going to go into this, as it irritates people.

Never! Sure the movies get it wrong, they always do. And that provides an opening for you to come correct. I love getting every angle.

and that said Pazuzu is still a waaaaaaay better villian from a waaaaaaaay better movie.

:) Thanks, Rod.

That being said, Pazuzu, in his first film debut takes the award 5 to 2.

Let move to two completely different villains in a completely different category. Vod and I talked, and we're going with some mythological characters here. Also, I'm going to bring in some women into this action.

From ancient Hellas, this once lovely lady was caught smooching up with Aphrodite's love interest in Aphrodite's temple. Not cool. So, Aphrodite cursed this woman to a life of hideousness, with snakes for hair. In fact, this woman was so hideous, one look would turn a man into stone.

I give you the Gorgon, Medusa:

In Hebraic mythos this lady was the first wife of Adam. However, she didn't like being subordinate to a man. So she high tailed it out of Eden. According to myth, she became a terrible succubus. She would drift into the dreams of men and steal their lives over a period of several nights. She was said to suck the life out of newborn children. She is also said to be the Hebraic version of a vampire.

Fighting for the right destroy men is Lilith:

These two ladies have three things in common: They've both been cursed by a deity, and NeoPagan women seem to adore them. That is possibly due to the third trait; their favored victims are men.

Very Nice :)


I will have to go with Medusa, for many reasons, but foremost is HArryhausen didnt make a Lilith as far as I know. Plus, frasier didnt marry medusa :p

Roderick Usher 01-17-2007 01:49 PM

Lillith all then way

and I'm loving the mythological turn this tourney has taken
