Hey I was bored at work the other day so in honor of Freddy vs. Jason I developed a tournament featuring the top 32 horror film heros or villans depending how your moral compass points, battling it out. Let's start with the first round and I'll tally the results by the next week and start round 2. I cheated by using Buffy. Also please pick the winner based on power not on who you like more. Doing the commentary will be The Cryptkeeper and Elvira

Round 1:

1.Freddy Kruger vs. Carrie

2.Dracula vs. Bud the Zombie (Day of the Dead)

3.Frankestein's Monster vs. Ash

4.Godzilla vs. King Kong

5.The Wolf Man vs. Leatherface

6.The Mummy (1932) vs. Creature from the Black Lagoon

7.Henry Kane (Poltergeist 2) vs. Jason

8.Stripe (Gremlins) vs. Ghostface (scream0

9.Alien vs. Jaws

10.Michael Myers vs. Norman Bates

11. Predator vs. Wishmaster

12.Critters vs. Chucky

13.Tall Man vs. Buffy

14. Lepercaun vs. The Jeeper Creepers Creature

15.Pinhead vs. The Thing

16.Killer Klowns vs. Pumpkinhead

So pick the winners and next week we'll do round 2 where the winners of this round randomly face off in the next.
