Last match of Round 2 up shortly...

Hmm.....Charlie Brewster.

The Abdominal Dr. Phibes (make a good crunch exercise commercial)

I'd say by the end, Dr Phibes character made more sense to me than Carrie. I don't think there was enough to work with for Spacek, but I didn't believe Carrie would start murdering her enemies, let alone strangers, like she did at the end.

Charlie in Frightnight is a nice chap, who I completely forgot about at the end. For me, finding Charlie as my favorite character in horror film would be like my favorite color being clear.

Carrie was rebelling against her entire abusive upbringing, not just reacting to the events of the night in question. You underestimate the power of teenage angst.


Even so, I vote for Phibes as well.

Dr. Anton Phibes

Carrie White

Dr. Anton Phibes - 6 (Sculpt, neverending, hammerfan, realdealblues, Kandarian Demon, The Villain)
Charlie Brewster - 1 (MichaelMyers)
Carrie White - 1 (DrFrankensteinsGirl)

Dr. Phibes resurrects himself and coasts to the easy win to secure the final spot in Round 3!



...which will start in a minute...

Count Dracula/Vlad the Impaler

Erik by a mile

Oh God I'm stuck between Frederick Frankenstein and Erik. On the one hand it's Frederick Frankenstein and we all now how much I love the men of the Frankenstein family. But then there's Erik and Lon Chaney's iconic performance as the Phantom. Umm...gosh V why do you make these choices so hard? lol I'm gonna have to shame myself and go with Erik, no one can beat Lon Chaney.

Erik (The Phantom of the Opera 1925)

The picture of Lon Chaney in that make up is just too iconic and memorable.

Tough choice. All did well with tough roles. I think Vlad might have been the toughest, which isn't generally isn't good for a character. A vlalid effort. I have to go with Erik (The Phantom of the Opera 1925).

I agree, and was aware, Carrie was rebelling against her entire abusive upbringing, not just reacting to the events of the night in question. Trust me, I know the power of teenage angst, I've been there. I consider it a given a teen would kill. It happens, but 99% of teens don't. But I wasn't estimating teenage angst and teen killing. I was talking about my assessment of the Carrie character portrayed in the film 'Carrie 76'. I didn't see the film portray a change in Carrie's character that would have lead her to kill innocents, but rather a more assertive young lady, willing to defend herself with her powers, but still with a solid conscience and empathy. I certainly understand why some would disagree; it's a rather subjective thing to assess.

Definitely Erik

Erik the Phantom - 5 (Anthropophagus, DrFrankensteinsGirl, realdealblues, Sculpt, The Villain)
Count Dracula/Vlad the Impaler - 1
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein - 0

Erik spooks all opposition out and secures a rather easy win.

Father Lankaster Merrin

God this one is even harder lol. I'll go with Frederick Loren, sorry Ash you're just no match against Vincent Price.

Ash to even things up. :cool:

Ash - as much as I love Vincent Price, I don't think that particular character can compete with Ash.

Ash (The Evil Dead/Evil Dead II/Army of Darkness)

tough one. Ash (The Evil Dead/Evil Dead II/Army of Darkness)

Interesting coincidence, I was just admiring the acting job of Father Merrin while grabbing some sound clips from Exorcist. Hollywood has always had a huge problem of finding actors who can convincingly play an individual of faith. I'm just speaking of what I've seen, not making a joke about Hollywood.

Frederick Loren is one of my favorite characters, but like Ash better.

Ash............................................

Ash - 5 (MichaelMyers, Kandarian Demon, knife_fight, Sculpt, Chronogrl)
Fr. Lankaster Merrin - 1 (Anthropophagus)
Frederick Loren - 1 (DrFrankensteinsGirl)

Ash blasts all opposition away and races to the win!

Dr. Jack Griffin (The Invisible Man)

Darn good trio. Ben.

Ben (Night of the Living Dead 1968)

Dr. Jack Griffin for the tie.
