welcome to watch mojo
and today we're counting down our picks
for the top 10 hardest monsters to kill
in movies
[Music]
we'll tear your soul apart
for this list we'll be looking at movie
monsters that just refuse to die
as the focus will be on true monsters
human characters like jason voorhees
no matter how resilient or prone to
resurrection will not be considered
what's the last movie monster you'd want
to meet in person
let us know in the comments
[Music]
number 10 cloverfield monster
cloverfield when the military has to
resort to an airstrike called
hammer down protocol clearly the target
can shrug off an onslaught
rising from the depths of the atlantic
ocean the cloverfield monster shows up
in manhattan and proceeds to just
wreck everything leaving millions of
civilians fleeing for their lives
as for the government they're at their
wit's end over how to put the beast down
do you guys know what it is out there
they know they ain't telling me
whatever it is it's winning due to the
nature of the film very little
information is revealed about the hammer
down protocol
but it involved plenty of bombs and an
at any cost
mentality yeah yeah yeah that's the [ __ ]
right there
number nine durham's bane the fellowship
of the ring
and the two towers
this balrog is a survivor having fought
in several wars before taking refuge in
caves beneath the misty mountains for
over 5
000 years known as durian's bane the
evil behemoth is armed with a flaming
whip and sword
chasing the fellowship through moria the
balrog proves to be such a threat that
gandalf
essentially sacrifices himself to stop
the beast
following a trip down an abyss and a
battle on a mountain that lasts for days
gandalf eventually emerges victorious
but it speaks volumes that the balrog
pushes such a powerful wizard to his
absolute limits
number eight pinhead the hellraiser
franchise
hailing from a hellish dimension and
fond of chains and needles
pinhead and the rest of the cenobites
are unpredictable
powerful and persistent
in the second movie pinhead is turned
back into a human and has
his throat slit you'd think that that
would be the end of him
but this only results in the cenobide
coming back stronger and more twisted
than ever
in the next film
while banishing the cenobites to hell is
usually the only way to defeat them
pinhead and his companions do eventually
meet their demise
in 2127. it only takes blowing up a
space station to get the job done
welcome to oblivion
number seven mr baba duke the babadook
if it's in a word or it's in a look you
can't get rid of the babadook
a boogeyman-esque creature born from a
children's book mr babadook's strength
is directly connected to its victim's
grief
when the babadook begins to haunt amelia
and samuel
it progressively gets more powerful as
the mother is pushed further and further
towards insanity
culminating in a possession
as amelia's grief stems from the death
of her husband defeating the babadook
requires facing and accepting that
tragedy
[Music]
while this renders the demon impotent
the pain of the loss will always be
there
meaning amelia can never fully get rid
of the babadook
number six the tall man the phantasm
franchise
a big part of the phantasm series appeal
is the lore
and persistent mystery for every
tantalizing bit of information it
reveals
it also holds something back and nowhere
is this
more true than with the tall man a being
from another dimension that looks human
but is anything but
the tall man has a degree of control
over death including his own
let's go let's go
killing this entity typically only
results in another one
showing up to take its place although a
forced embalming or a dose of liquid
nitrogen
can at least provide some respite
the tall man is hard enough to slow down
let alone
kill it's all over
[Music]
it's never over
number five the thing the thing
a monster motivated by survival the
thing can replicate
other organisms splitting itself apart
into countless beings
while a flamethrower or an explosion
should be able to kill
a single thing that means little when
there are other versions running around
you've gotta be kidding
the monster's ability to almost
perfectly replicate its target makes the
thing an incredibly dangerous and
difficult enemy to fight against
as its mere existence turns everyone
into a suspect
right now it's at least something
a way to eliminate some of us so i'm
gonna get killed because i floss
even in the unlikely situation that all
instances of the thing are killed
the survivors will still have to live
the rest of their days
wondering whether their neighbor is
truly their neighbor
did you kill us
where were you child number four
deadites the evil dead franchise
[Music]
when it comes to ash williams worst
nightmares the best bet is to keep on
chopping until the possessed corpse
stops moving deadites are evil spirits
that take over both the living or dead
and they tend to be pretty darn
difficult to kill as beheadings are
often not enough
the complete annihilation of the head
and ideally
removal of some limbs is recommended
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
while ash defeats many deadites with his
trusty boomstick and chainsaw the groovy
hero is generally just destroying the
possessed bodies
causing the spirits to be sent packing
but not truly destroyed
swallow this
[Music]
number three the xenomorph queen aliens
in ridley scott's horror classic the
xenomorph was a single terrifying entity
in james cameron's sequel however the
titular aliens get the quantity over
quality treatment
at least when it comes to the monster's
threat level
while the standard xenomorphs go down
relatively quickly in the sequel
the same cannot be said for the queen a
hulking monstrosity that's also
light-footed
and intelligent the queen brushes off
gunfire and
fire like they're nothing
it takes an exoskeleton one of horror's
most badass heroes
and a trip into outer space to put the
queen down for good
number two the blob the blob
once this monster gets eating nothing
will satisfy its hunger in both the 1958
original
and the 1988 remake the blob is a
jellyfish-like creature that devours
humans to expand
in size eventually becoming absolutely
massive
[Music]
the blob does not react well to freezing
temperatures
which spells its doom in both films but
it's otherwise
impervious to most threats and while the
blob can be put on ice and essentially
defeated
only a small morsel of the jelly needs
to escape to start the process
all over again the lord will give me
a sign the 1958 film doesn't even try to
destroy the monster
opting to trap the blob in the arctic
instead
i don't think it can be killed but at
least we've got it stopped
as long as the arctic stays cold before

number one godzilla the godzilla
[Applause]
franchise
godzilla is the creature to call when
other nearly
unkillable kaiju like destroyer and king
ghidorah
are wreaking havoc over the decades
godzilla has played the role of villain
anti-hero and even father the one thing
that remains constant is that killing
this beast is mostly a pipe dream
in the 1954 film it takes a weapon of
mass destruction to take down the
original godzilla
an incarnation of the kaiju that does
not rank amongst the strongest
while godzilla has died a few times over
the decades the monster tends to shrug
off
most attacks be it from mankind or other
massive creatures that can level cities
with a sneeze
he's truly the king of the monsters
