12 Gut-Wrenching TV Monsters From Different Shows - Explored With Nostalgic Punch!

[@anthonydjuan1976]

WEREWOLF! That show blew my mind. Thank you so much for mentioning it. Forgot how bleak and dark and terrifying those werewolves were. They kept that show serious!

[@joshwright4799]

Anthony d'juan who will win the fight x men ( marvel ) or graboids ( tremors ) and why?

Clicked on this so fast when i saw Skorzeny.. Werewolf was such a good show, and IMO the coolest looking werewolf ever!!

Skorzeny was the name of the Vampire in the 1972 TV movie "The Night Stalker", This was a nod to the movie!

[@joshwright4799]

Blaque mann who will win the fight deadpool ( marvel ) or peacock family ( x files ) and why?

[@craigmad-doganderson9042]

Werewolf was a criminally underated show. The cast was phenomenal, the special effects were chilling and for the time so impressive. It's a shame that a bigger budget never materialised to really grasp audiences. It's one show I wish could be remade so that a real conclusion could be reached. It was a dark, hairy The Incredible Hulk.

[@stephenkevindoss1474]

I saw AMELIA as a child and it absolutely terrified me. I never saw it again, never knew the name, and did not forget it. I searched the internet but could never find anything about it and just stopped looking for it. Although seeing the “Zuni” with a 48 year olds eyes and being a little surprised at the low level of graphics, that thing stuck in my head and was a monster to my 5 year old self that all other monsters were measured and very few seemingly reaching its level. The last scene is still vivid to me even though you didn’t show it, a possessed Amelia sits staring into your eyes, in a receding frame, butcher’s knife in hand slowly stabbing the floor as her teeth grow steadily from her mouth. What a scene, at least that’s how it is in my memory. Thanks for the blast.

[@davesmith7432]

Chuck Connor’s Captain Skorzeny was scary. “Did you come here to kill me?? Ah ha ha ha!” That’s badass.

[@Jdyke2059]

So solid. Wish they could remake this and have it be appealing to current audiences.

Trilogy of Terror was a tour de force for Karen Black. She could do anything: comedy, drama, farce, horror...and in that film, she played all three leads, something the narrator didn't mention. Scary as hell. As for The Night Stalker, Darren McGavin was simply perfect.

[@deborahchesser7375]

You showing our age lol. Night gallery, The Sixth sense with Gary Collins, those scared the shit out of me too. Never missed the night Stalker either, Darrin M was definitely made for the role.

Interesting fact about the Weeping Angels. They're described in Doctor Who lore as a race of quantum-locked assassins that take on the form of statues. The reason they look like angels is because of Human sculptures.

[@lauralowe7834]

That episode of Buffy was hilarious though, especially when they were trying to communicate a battle plan to fight the gentlemen.

[@martinsorenson1055]

A good one for this category would be the Mud Monster from A World Beyond, a 1978 chiller that aired I believe on CBS. This thing's first appearance was terrifying when I saw it as a kid. I remember my friend and I grabbing each other and screaming - and my mom asking what was wrong.

[@MaskedRiderChris]

I must disagree with your assessment of the original miniseries take on Barlow; I found the kid hovering at the window and the guy sitting in the darkened room, eyes glowing and growling "Yeeessss, *look at me*, teacher!" much creepier than Barlow himself. I enjoyed "Werewolf" a lot back in 1987, cheesy wolf suits aside, because it was a lot like the Bill Bixby Hulk TV series, and oh yes, was Chuck Connors scary as heck in that one! But that blessed fetish doll was one of the scariest things ever because it was relentless, vicious, and FAST. Those high pitched snarls it made were just hair raising! Good video, y'all!

I found out years later, that Rick Baker, was responsible for the Werewolf Design, for the series, as well!!! I believe that Shudder Network, should buy the rights and bring back the series, with a all new cast, since Chuck Connors, is no longer with us anymore!!!

[@aurochtamer]

"Are You Afraid of the Dark?" had a much worse monster. The thing behind a door in the basement that changed it's form based on the music that was playing.

They need to reboot the Werewolf TV Series man...I loved the show and its practical effects. They still remain some of the best looking and most terrifying versions of motion picture werewolves ever man.

[@cheapinjun2126]

a rebooted series needs to follow the same recipe of using practical effects as the original or they might as well not bother trying. the effects from American Werewolf in London and Howling were amazing too.

[@multitudeofidols]

Worth noting that in 1996, they made a _Trilogy of Terror_ sequel with the third segment being a follow-up to the original film's "Amelia" story.

[@DannyDangerOz]

Right there with you. This is fast becoming my favourite channel for finding cool stuff I missed, but they really need to slow their output so they can research pronunciation, or hire some who does the research for them. Honestly, I’d be happy with one video a week. The quality is good, but maintaining it at the rate they publish will only ever get harder as time goes on.

That + calling grown women "young girls" really bothered me.

[@luisgomez8635]

You all sound like a bunch of nit picking whiners. I can only imagine what else you all nitpick on.

The Giles one kills me because there's literally a joke in a _Buffy_ episode about Spike having not programmed the Buffybot to pronounce his name right because the bot pronounced it exactly as the narrator of this video pronounces it.

[@jen5487]

That is one of the best and definitely the scariest episode of the X Files! I love it and always recommend it for horror fans.

[@Atomykpimp]

Werewolf was one of the very first shows ever on Fox. It was way ahead of its time and if it had been released on CW years later? It may have lasted quite a few seasons and been a hit.

[@mrnaughtycat]

Yep when I first watched dead man’s float I was scared

[@mortimerbrewster3671]

X-Files had several terrific and odd episodes but Home stayed with me for days. I watched a lot of thriller and horror flicks before that which never disturbed me on the same level that episode did. I thought the reason they killed the baby was because it was so deformed that it wouldn't have survived anyway. I loved the Weeping Angels. They were a unique concept and every episode I saw were the best and scarier than Daleks or Cybermen. Buffy Summers' Gentlemen was such a fun episode. Scary and funny is always a great combination. I would love to have the ability take the voices of some people just for some peace and quiet occasionally.

Tales from the Crypt in my opinion had much better gory episodes then the one you mentioned. I think it was quite tame.

[@gspendlove]

I like the gremlin in the Twilight Zone episode "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet." The makeup and costume are both properly basic, but there's just something about him that's utterly terrifying. He looks like a troglodyte, something that's not quite human but vicious enough to hate humans and to want to kill as many of them as possible, and enjoy doing it. Picking out one special passenger on the plane to reveal himself to in order to cause a maximum of chaos and fear inside it, just before he takes it down.

[@Sidragrosm]

I do recall another TV Monster(s) - Stan WInston's Demons (1970, if I'm not mistaken.) At the time, those..? were Horrifying! Story was pretty good too! Edit - My bad! It was called Gargoyles, and came out in 1972.

i know the shows are from the 80s-00s teen wolf from 11-17, there was a werewolf who transforms into a werewolf, theres 3 stages of eye color and strength and speed. Omega lone, Beta rookie, Alpha the powerful. Omega eyes turn blue since theyre not in a pack, beta follows the alpha, but even alpha comes in different forms. Peter Hale for ex, he was an alpha whos form takes shape of a huge wolf. Its not the ones from twilight but his alpha form is based on muscles, black body, no hair, dark red eyes and sharp claws. This was the only season we saw peter bite Scott and fight Scott at the end of the 1st episode. then theres the kanima 2nd season antagonist, hes a scaly lizard with long tail with serated claws. tail has venom can paralyze the victim if no antidote is found victim dies. Of course we didnt see the kanima's actual form, we only saw the shed skin. then there was the demon wolf, or aka Deucalion, who was blind by the Darache aka Jennifer, aparrently hes the god of the alpha wolves in the tv series which we saw his wolf form, terrifying facial expression. He sure has the wolf face, except hes grey, dark red eyes, brute strength, very frightening.
