These are really interesting answers. Chrono, on the other hand, is going to go for the more obvious and completely visceral...
1. what horror movie character really scared you?
Mike Myers. Hands down. Comes after me in nightmares on occasion.
2. what was it about the character that frightened you?
Mike Myers was completely dehumanized to being more than animal, but monster. This wasn't just plain sociopath, but rather the embodiment of fear and evil. It was specifically what Carpenter set out to do and I think that he succeeded.
3. why did you find this particular characteristic of the character frightening?
In regards to simple visceral reaction, as I mentioned before, he is the embodiment of nightmares, the manifestation of home invasion and siege, subjects that honestly keep me up at night (I sleep closer to the door, so I would be the first one to go... Freaks me out).
