It wouldn't hurt to try since they seem to be running out of ideas...I mean honestly, which would you rather see...another Michael Myers or something completely different?...Like someone conjures up a gracken or chimera...I don't know how it would be done, I'm not a writer, but I sure would like to see it...

Do you guys have any favorite mythological creatures? I've always liked the gorgons...Medusa rocks (pun intended)...

Doesn't have too be from Greek mythology...Could be Nordic...Valkyries are cool too...

Actually, ANY mythological creatures that you prefer...:)


yeah i guess in a sence mythological creatures are scry! but they're so scary they're cute!! mabye if they had a movie about cornish pixies attacking the lepruchans......oh and then add david bowie and we're good! lmao. no but a mythological movie would be k/a!!!

I actually have a series of short-stories i was writing (x-filesy type about cryptozoology) where the focus of each story was a creature from various mythologies that i would "justify" scientifically.

The first story in the series was based on a cross between the "redcap" from english(?) folklore and the OwlMen that were supposedly seen around an old church in southern England.

Others i had plots for:
Kraken
Ahuizotl
Doppleganger
Sea Serpents
Ghouls
Rusalki

All of them had ties to their mythological roots, but were explained intelligently as a part of their ecology, and were all done with a horror bent.

the main charcters were the same in each story, one of the being the brother of this guy. (click me)

Nah, it was actually wendigo, but thanks for the suggestion. Jersey Devil Is definately on my list already, as is el chupacabra.


And not that crappy "it's really a lost neanderthal" Jersey Devil from the x-files either. We're talkin' winged horsey lookin thing. I like weird :)
