a level playing field is never a thing
in horror welcome to watchmojo.com up
ease please God for this list we're
looking at the most powerful monsters in
horror movies which is not solely
dependent on the creatures physical
strength villains like Michael Myers and
Jason Voorhees unstoppable as they may
be will be left out of the discussion as
they are essentially humans and not
monsters number 10 Xenomorphs the Alien
franchise when an infant little more
than a big worm a xenomorph possesses
enough power to burst out of a human's
chest
ribs and all as the alien matures the
xenomorph transforms into the ultimate
killing machine one furnished with a
highly protective exoskeleton deadly
claws and a tail known for slicing and
dicing through flesh without much
trouble along with being stealthy enough
to give solid snake a run for his money
xenomorphs have proven to be rather
adaptive and intelligent enough to not
rely solely on brute strength then
there's the queen a towering entity that
amplifies all the strengths of a normal
xenomorph your survival is quite
unlikely
number nine Krampus Krampus
Krampus announces his arrival by
engulfing a town in a snowstorm because
you know shaping the weather is just the
opening act for evil Santa Krampus is
job is to drag people who denounce
Christmas to the underworld usually
using hook chains some terrifying Claus
and potentially some magic please I know
you could fix this give them back the
movie does not reveal too many of
Krampus abilities although it does show
enough to suggest that this creature
could be beyond defeat while enough of a
threat on his own Krampus is also a team
player in fact the nightmarish Santa's
ragtag group of twisted toys elves and
confectionary make up a significant part
of Krampus arsenal number eight graboids
the tremors franchise traveling
underground and outfitted with three
tentacles for that added creep factor
graboids sit at the top of Earth's food
chain resembling worms with a sprinkle
of love crafty and terror the American
graboid is not only tough as nails but
can also grow almost to the size of a
bus while in tremors 5 an African
variant is even bigger
as subterranean monsters graboids rely
on catching their prey unprepared and
the species can outrun and in certain
cases out think any human graboids are
the ultimate hunters once they pinpoint
a target nothing is gonna get in the
monsters way that's how they get you
number seven the thing the thing I don't
know what the hell's in there it's weird
and pissed off whatever it is a
shape-shifting creature had landed
somewhere warmer it might have been
unstoppable the thing is an alien that
absorbs organic life forms creating a
near-perfect replica with identical
memories and mannerisms what makes this
parasite particularly powerful is its
ability to divide into numerous cells
each functioning individually while
still serving the whole this not only
makes the alien extremely difficult to
kill but the thing could also spread its
influence quickly if it could reach a
large city filled with clueless victims
the thing hides in plain sight turning
close friends and family members into
monsters which is cunningly terrifying
nobody trusts anybody now number six
Sadako Yamamura the ring franchise like
her mother Sadako was born a psychic an
incredibly powerful one capable of axing
people with her mind that's all before
Sonico was thrown down a well becomes an
unnerving vengeful spirit who routinely
laughs in the face of physics and begins
to spread a videotape that kills viewers
after seven days along with high-end
x-men like abilities like telekinesis
and telepathy Sonico can also possess
other people to do unspeakable acts
the spirit is also known to occasionally
kill someone with just a gaze because in
the case of static Oh looks really can
be deadly

number five Count Dracula I am Dracula
Vlad the Impaler is movie monster
royalty throughout the years Count
Dracula has a mastiff filmography that
surpasses most a list actors with the
two most significant cinematic versions
being 1931 s Universal monster and
Christopher Lee's Hammer horror
reimagining while some variants are more
powerful than others Dracula is always a
threat
blending physical supernatural and
psychological abilities that ensure the
vampire king remains among the night's
most hair-raising ambassadors to Michael
along with shape-shifting and being a
master manipulator Dracula like most
vampires can essentially create an army
of bloodthirsty minions even if he
mainly limits this power to a handful of
chosen Brides where's Charles you don't
need
[Music]
number four Pazuzu the exorcist
franchise why you
although Pazuzu spends his most
memorable outings stuck in a bed
flinging insults at priests and just
being all-around disgusting it would be
ill-advised to underestimate the demon
Pazuzu most dangerous weapon is bodily
possession as the monster can seize
control of both humans and animals
twisting the host into a nightmarish
version of their former selves how long
are you planning to stay in Regan
Pazuzu has a deranged sense of humor and
finds the light and corrupting seemingly
innocent beings with children often
being targeted by the demon Pazuzu
doesn't even need to be in control to
cause havoc proving as much when the
demon transferred a serial-killer soul
into the body of father Karras do you
think they will save you now as an
forgive us our trespasses all I can pray
to the people give those interested you
feel nice little orisons creeping up
your spine number 3 Freddy Krueger bein
Nightmare on Elm Street franchise known
during life as the Springwood slasher
death only served to make Freddy Krueger
more dangerous than ever
attacking teenagers while they dreamed
by typically bringing to life the
victims deepest fears the legendary
movie villain has practically full
control and is almost unstoppable within
this realm
although Freddy strength depends on the
number of people who fear him and
whether the villain has absorbed enough
Souls at full potential Freddy becomes
powerful enough to directly influence
reality it's real
real a threat in the real world and
godlike in the dreamworld Freddy is too
powerful for Hell to hold sticks and
stones may break my balls will ever kill
me
number two pinhead the Hellraiser
franchise welcome to hell
Clive Barker's Dark Prince of pain is
beyond powerful whether serving
Leviathan are flying solo pinheads
abilities are overwhelming the leader of
a set of ight army pinhead is summoned
whenever someone solves the lament
configuration a box that also serves as
the monsters only weakness once summoned
pinhead has access to a myriad of tools
to torture any unfortunate victims
although the entity's preferred method
involves telekinetically controlled
chains to a certain extent pinhead can
also distort space and manipulate
reality creating illusions to trick
humans
it's what you wanted to see it's what
you wanted to know and here it is
preferring a hands-off approach pinhead
has also been known to resurrect victims
as Cenobites further adding to the
monsters power well our number one pick
may not have nail sticking out of his
face but the character basically feeds
off of fear itself which is infinitely
more terrifying
well let's scare our way through the
honorable mentions and then we'll see
our most powerful monster in horror
movies everything's ok

franchise wait are you going yet
primarily known as penny wise it is a
being that cannot be comprehended by an
ordinary human
as such the villain primarily takes the
form of nightmarish creatures based on a
person's worst fears knowledge learned
through its telepathic powers that is
just the tip of this hellish iceberg as
it can warp reality to bring to life
illusions brainwash entire towns to
ignore its existence and drive humans
into performing deadly acts of violence
if penny wise didn't love eating humans
with a healthy seasoning of fear it
could just continue killing without ever
being noticed
