#10: Don't Watch the Tape
Top 10 Lamest Movie Monster Weaknesses
Samara Morgan “The Ring” scared the pants off everyone in 2002, especially those who frequently rented movies. I mean, a video tape that if you watch it, seven days later a girl crawls out of your TV and disfigures you, pretty terrifying stuff. But hold on a second. What if you... get this... just don’t watch the tape – or turn it off after the first five seconds because it’s boring? Or, if you did somehow sit through it, what if you just avoided TV screens for a while, especially on the seventh day after watching the tape? If Samara gets to you, you’re in for a horrible fate, but who says she has to win, huh?
#9: Cats
Top 10 Reasons Why Cats is the WORST
Imhotep The thought of an immortal Mummy with the ability to absorb your life force hunting you down is pretty daunting, to say the least. Bullets don’t work, running away doesn’t seem to help – especially when he can morph into a sandstorm. But unfortunately for Imhotep and Egyptian beliefs, cats seem to do a pretty good job of repelling him. As the Egyptians feared that cats were the guardians of the dead, and with Imhotep being risen from the dead, it kinda makes sense that he would be scared of them. But come on, a fluffy white cat, all cute and cuddly. It’s still kinda stupid.
#8: Positivity
Vigo the Carpathian We’re not saying that Vigo the Carpathian isn’t scary, quit the opposite. I mean look at the guy. But, the way the Ghostbusters take him down is a little silly. Throughout the movie, the Ghostbusters discover that a slime charged with evil is causing all sorts of havoc in New York City. How do they defeat it? Well, reverse the effects so it’s positive slime – obviously. After a lengthy ordeal of possession and paintings, the team end up spraying Vigo with a concoction of positive slime and ultimately destroying his evil presence. I wonder if saying “hey did you lose weight?” or “that’s a lovely outfit” would have worked just as well?
#7: Sunlight
Gremlins Gremlins are the perfect example of something that is weird and creepy but sort of cute at the same time. Well, unless it’s Stripe you’re talking about, he’s just creepy. When Billy inadvertently releases a horde of evil Gremlins, or Mogwai, into his town, they have to try and stop the little buggers from causing chaos. The darn things are tough to catch, though, so the best way to get rid of them is with sunlight – which seems like it would just sort itself out. You can always use a microwave, blender or kitchen knife. But sunlight is by far the most effective. In fact, sunlight is absolutely devastating to the little creatures, I mean, just ask Stripe. Yikes.
#6: Voorhees Dagger
Top 20 Jason Voorhees Kills
Jason Voorhees The charm of the “Friday 13th” franchise has always been that no matter what you threw at him, Jason hockey-mask-wearing Voorhees would always come out alive and kicking. Fire, explosives – the guy has even survived dismemberment. But Hollywood being Hollywood, there is one method that was designed to be his Achilles heal for the 1993 movie “Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday”. And essentially, it’s a magic dagger, that can only take Jason out if he’s stabbed in the heart with it, and it’s wielded by someone from the Voorhees bloodline. I mean, what? Next you’ll be telling us he’s dragged to Hell and survives that too… Erm.
#5: Courage
It So It, or Pennywise, whatever you want to call.. It, is one of the coolest, most terrifying monsters ever to grace the page and the screen. He is fear personified and is almost impossible to escape and defeat. Almost. Throughout the movies and books, we are lead to believe that It feeds on fear. The more you’re scared of It, the worse it is for you and everyone around you. And at the end of “It Chapter Two”, we see that theory confirmed when The Losers Club defeat the monster with, well courage, and a handful of insults. Ultimately, It is defeated because The Losers no longer fear it, and these insults are the straw that broke the clowns back.
#4: Getting Shot in the Heart
Top 10 Worst Movie Character Weaknesses of All Time
Chucky When a serial killer gets his soul transferred into a toy doll, you can see things might get a little dicey. And by soul we mean his personality, his voice and, oh yeah, his ability to get injured just like a normal human. Well, sort of. Chucky gets thrown around a helluva lot throughout “Child’s Play”, bouncing back up like he’s invincible. He gets burned, shot, decapitated, but still comes back for more. Until, for some weird reason, a shot to the heart finishes him off. But having his head cut off doesn’t? Wait, what? Is he human or not? It’s all just a little convenient don’t you think?
#3: "Puberty Love"
The Killer Tomatoes We know, we know, the idea of killer tomatoes is ridiculous, but the weakness of said fruit, or is it a vegetable – is particularly dumb. In the movie, the giant sentient tomatoes are wreaking havoc all over the place, with everyone scurrying around trying to find out how to stop them. The solution? A mind-numbingly terrible song called “Puberty Love”. A song so bad that it makes the tomatoes shrink down to normal size, small enough to be squished. The idea of a random song being the answer to stopping deadly food is pretty terrible anyway. But there’s stupid, and then there’s “Puberty Love”!
#2: Gold
Top 10 Devious Movie Gold Diggers
Lubdan the Leprechaun The Leprechaun franchise is pretty wacky. It somehow managed to make an evil Leprechaun who makes terrible jokes and kills for fun, kinda brilliant and terrible at the same time. However, the concept of said baddie is... faulty. You see, pretty much his only motivation is gold. Steal his gold and he will come after you and do anything he has to to get his hands on it. For that reason, gold is also his biggest weakness. Lure him into a trap with it, get rid of it so he stops chasing you. Simple. Oh yeah, he’s also vulnerable to four-leaf clovers and is easily distracted by his compulsion to shine shoes. Okay, whatever. Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few Honorable Mentions: Heat Jack Frost Long Distances Demon Cold Temperatures The Blob
#1: Water
3 Reasons To See The Shape Of Water - Review! Mojo @ The Movies
The Wicked Witch of the West This green-faced meanie is a pretty well-rounded villain. She’s got the look, the laugh, the ability to poof into smoke, monkey minions willing to do her bidding, a swanky castle. She’s got everything – except the ability to survive a shower it would seem. During the “Wizard of Oz”’s big conclusion, the evil green witch is inadvertently melted when she is hit with a bucket of water. And just like that she’s gone, reduced to a robe and a hat. So all that suave badassery mentioned earlier counts for nothing. “The Wicked Witch is dead!" Don’t even get us started on Hansel and Gretel.
