If you had a chance to get rid of one horror movie icon or character, who would it be?

You are watching a horror movie, nothing special. But you think to yourself of what would happen if they were real and then the tv goes off and turns into static and an image reappears on the screen. Its a strange figure holding a black book with red writing. The figure walks close to the tv and pushes the book through the screen, causing it to fall out in front of you. You obvious reaction is you would freak out as the image disappears and the movie comes back on. You look back at the book and pick it up and open it. The book turns out to be filled with every single horror movie icon, new and old and even worse is that they actually exist but also there are instructions on how to get rid of them for good. But with a catch....you can only destroy one. So if had the power to stop killer nightmare beings, undead slashers and possessed toys, who would you get rid of?

Honestly I would destroy.....that blasted doll Chucky. That thing gave me nightmares when I saw Child's Play by accident one night and was scarred for about 12 years until I got over him at age 14 and now looking back I think it was ridiculous to be scared of him. But I wouldn't mind putting the ki-bash on the little nightmare if I had the chance. =-=

Zombies, everything from slow walkers to the rage virus types. I figure zombies have the largest potential to fuck humanity, plus I really hate zombies.

Oh Snap!

OT: I'd get rid of all the dumbass teenagers. That would pretty much destroy 90% of all horror movies though.
But then we'd only be left with the good ones :D

3/10, would not read again.

OT: If we're talking "from now on", Pyramid Head stopped be cool by his second appearance.

If we're talking retroactively, then I gotta say that wish vampires had never taken off.

Under the Bed was pretty terrible.
Edit: I misread the topic. I guess I would also like to cut zombies off. And the zombies that "aren't actually zombies". Or at least have games and movies take a break from using them.

Dude, are you me? I came into this thread just to say that.

I've never even seen any of the films, but the boxart and commercials were enough to freak me out at 7 years old. I fucking hate that piece of shit monster.

I don't know, any character that comes to mind as a longstanding character is pretty dumb. If I could get rid of the a type of character I'd do that. The little possessed children or old women ones. They utterly ruin movies for me as I can't find any kind of scariness in them. In real life though? I'd have to do my homework and find one that could actually impact me.

The character might have been ok, but they had to go, child molester. They could have gone child killer, serial killer, it'd have been fine.
But no, they had to remove all entertainment value there was.

That aside, he's really boring! He does'nt do anything! 3/4 of every freaking film he's alone in, is some boring teenagers trying to stay awake!
Then he appears for a bit, carves someone up, more boring waffle.

I loathe and despise Freddy Kruger!
I'm with this person, Freddy Kruger is way overrated. It doesn't help that he makes me nervous to go to sleep, and I like sleeping!

OT: I'd give Sadako/Samara a happier childhood and cut back on all the zombie media.

Do I dare say the J-horror girl? Don't get me wrong I love Ring when they first used that pale and long hair girl as a scary monster but then after that every single J-horror out there used the same concept (The Grudge, Dark Water, One Missed Call and etc) and it worse when it got remake!
Well ok I am more on against on the remake version (come up with something original Hollywood!) but hey remake is not an icon or character so I guess I had to target the source!

Candyman! I can't even think his name 5 times let alone say it. Not even in front of a mirror. That film scared the living crap out of me as a kid >.<

My vote goes to the devil from the Exorcist, just so I can go around and say that I officially kicked the devil's ass.

Nope fuck it, every terrible moment in every terrible Friday the 13th sequel is worth it for that bit alone.
Maybe that's what he thinks it is? It could be part of why he's so frustrated.

It is slightly ironic that I have fallen asleep during one of his films. Oh no, he has claws...
