you can't always get it right on the
first try or the second
or the fifth but somehow someway good
ideas for monster movies need to be done
well
there are so many incredible ghouls and
goblins and giants out there that have
never been given the proper treatment
thus ending up as the butts of jokes and
without a place in the horror hall of
fame
no more i say too many great ideas fall
flat thanks to lack of funding
studio intervention proper technology
existing at the time and more
plus hindsight is 20 20. if you make
mistakes on the first outing they can be
dealt with more clearly 10 years down
the line
hello horror heads and welcome back to
the scariest channel on youtube top 5
scary videos
i'm your horror host keegan hughes and
today we're gonna be taking a look at
the top five scary horror monster movies
that need a reboot
before we get started make sure to give
this video a big thumbs up and subscribe
for more painful part twos
wicked let's get started coming in at
number five we've got chuda
first of all i think chud gets more
flack than it deserves it's
cheesy it's camping it doesn't make a
whole lot of sense but it's also
a whole lot of fun where else would you
go to find glowing sewer aliens and a
bunch of people willing to give the
acronym chud to meanings huh
but as many movies from the mid 80s tend
to do it sort of
faded into obscurity there was a sequel
but we don't talk about
that here the movie itself was likely
intended just to be a schlocky b
horror but it did end up gaining quite
the cult following
well it's even been featured in a few
higher end horror flicks
but the original did have a soul of its
very own in fact that soul is probably
what made so many people latch on in the
first place
you all might know that shud stands for
cannibalistic humanoid underground
dwellers but there's also a second
meaning
contamination hazard urban disposal
that's right the government's been
screwing everyone over from the start
see the poor and destitute were living
in the sewers to survive
and the folks over at the nuclear
regulatory commission decided it was
time to drop off all of the
byproducts beneath the city one thing
led to another now we've got plenty of
monsters underground
something tells me there's an updated
story about not trusting the government
that chud could lend its name to
it wouldn't have to be good or poignant
it could just be an updated look at how
both definitions of chud would exist in
our modern world
plus i always felt that the chuds
themselves didn't get enough camera time
sure they were just dudes in rubber
suits but they were cool dudes in rubber
suits
the reboot should happen just so we can
get more chat action on screen
who's with me nobody coming in at number
four we've got the tingler
don't be alarmed you can protect
yourself at any time you are conscious
of a tingling sensation
you may obtain immediate relief by
screaming
don't be embarrassed about opening your
mouth and letting rip with all you've
got
don't laugh this is actually a very
effective giant bug horror starring
vincent price
another camp cult classic of course the
tingler is the story of a parasite that
feeds on fear
if you feel a tingle in your spine while
frightened you've probably got one
just don't tell anyone the story isn't
all that compelling i will admit
a doctor discovers a centipede-like
creature that lives in every human spine
that can eventually crush you if you get
too scared
the only way to weaken it is by
screaming a
sample tingler is extracted during an
autopsy but surprise surprise it escapes
it ends up in a movie theater where in a
moment of meta excellence the audience
is encouraged to scream in order to
flesh it out
this was all good fun but there was an
extra element included in the original
screenings
technology known as percepto was built
into the seats at certain theaters and
would vibrate in tandem with on-screen
action
i'm sure a few people were awakened by
this experience and not just by fear if
you know what i'm
saying this kind of campy goodness
became a mainstay at theme parks and
other similar attractions in the future
but definitely didn't stick in theaters
proper
but i'm saying we could bring the
tingler back for some hilarious
shenanigans
i see it happening in one of two ways
either some theme park latches on and
adds a tingler attraction
complete with 3d glasses and vibrating
seats or it becomes a horror movie
social experiment type deal
folks would go and see the new and
improved tingler likely unaware that
there'd be anything in their seats
and voila you've got a hit prank show on
your hands something along the lines of
that employment seeking prank show with
that kid from stranger things but less
overtly cruel to
unemployed people coming in at number
three we've got the relic
if modern society needs to be reminded
of anything it's this
don't drink strange soup that's where
the relic reboot comes in
in the movie dr john whitney is
transformed into a horrific beast after
drinking an odd fungus concoction given
him by some tribesmen
the creature known as kathaga has all
sorts of qualities from all sorts of
animals
it's got tusks it's got scales it has
wicked claws it has a muscular tail
it's really cool plus how many movies
use a museum
as the backdrop it doesn't get done
often enough that's for sure
watching a giant lizard thing run
rampant in the field museum of natural
history is a blast and a half so i think
rebooting it is a no-brainer
add in some more modern technology
explore a different museum
up the body count by a whole bunch and
maybe add a few monsters to the mix
it was based on a novel by douglas
preston and lincoln child
so returning to the source material and
attempting to interpret it differently
could be a fun time
now they could even do a night of the
museum-style horror comedy the
possibilities are endless
kind of like the varieties of dna in the
monster coming in at number two we've
got pumpkin head
if we are talking about monsters that
need to be reintroduced to a modern
audience then pumpkinhead is an
obvious pick if freddie jason and
michael and even candyman can get
reboots why not pumpkinhead
there's plenty of lore to explore
already what with the three sequels plus
comic books and a whole slew of spooky
season enthusiasts who just eat that
right up
the theme of revenge is always an
effective one too and translates well
into our current media climate
whether they totally remade the first or
went in a new direction i think pumpkin
head would be a slam dunk
and who among us hasn't wished for a
reimagined version of haggis
look terrordom has already featured a
polished and cleaned up version of
pumpkinhead there's a demand for more
horror icons amidst a sea of horror
dramas and the sort of sanitized work of
the conjuring universe
sometimes you just want to see a wicked
monster go to town on some hoodlums
it would be cool if they took the
halloween route and retconned everything
following
the first that way someone in search of
revenge could seek out haggis and be led
to the corpse of harley
bonus points if they bring back the
necklace billy made him that way they
could pay homage to the original give
die hard fans a nod and then move in any
which direction they like
reboots are meant to freshen up the
approach so you don't want to get too
attached to the past
and finally at number one we've got
rawhead rex
seems that a lot of folks have had
trouble adapting clive barker's work to
the big screen
if you put barker himself in charge
you'll often get favorable results but
if someone else steps in
you might be in trouble that seemed to
be the case with 1987's rawhead rex
based on a short story by barker it was
meant to be the tale of a pagan god
wreaking havoc rawhead rex is supposed
to be a nine
foot phallus with teeth ended up looking
like a rubber gorilla
murdering some people it's not to say
that the film didn't have some fun
moments but it definitely wasn't what
anyone expected or wanted
in fact clive barker himself has been
vocal about his distaste for the movie
he was even involved in a remake at some
point but that was cancelled due to his
involvement with a hellraiser reboot
although he does say he's still
interested in directing a remake so that
being said let's focus our hopes and
wishes on a clive approved rawhead
reboot
one with enough blood gore and depravity
to upset mothers and moral authorities
across the world
that's the kind of movie we need well
you excited me
saying they should be rebooted doesn't
mean they will be but i'm putting that
kind of energy out into the world
the possibility of these reboots should
be enough to launch you out of bed every
morning ready to work towards a world
where rawhead rex can
bite someone's head off in 4k and that
chad will return to the vocabulary of
everyone everywhere
i'd say it's possible what do you think
would you watch a reboot of any of these
or should they be left well alone are
you willing to pen a screenplay and
pitch it to a major studio
so the rest of us can enjoy one of these
movies make sure you let me know down in
the comments
speaking of comments let's take a look
at some of your more buzzy ones from the
top 5 scary monster horror movies that
changed all the rules part 2.
tom carr says little aliens are afraid
ripley is under their bed
that's clever and all but i don't know
if aliens sleep in beds
more like they're afraid of her being
behind every pipe every valve
wicked good says keegan coming in with
the quarantine bob ross look
digging it if only i knew how to paint
well then i can make some real money
randa moyer says tremors always made me
feel uneasy since who knows what's under
the ground
even now i wouldn't say i'm okay with it
you can never really know for sure can
you
the only way to confirm or deny it is to
head underground yourself
let us know what you find lancelot's
word says to be honest i'd be more
scared of having a little alien bursting
his way out of my chest
just the thought of it gives me a
stomachache it's funny you say that
i figured it'd give you like heartburn
or some sort of chest pain
did johnny degeneral bernard says the
reason why people think they're scary is
because horror movies are a test to see
what extent people could actually
believe
we know they aren't real but people
would think they are real that's one of
the reasons why people fear
that and the eel from mario 64. anyone
talk about that
we're taking advantage of an
evolutionary instinct for
entertainment's sake
isn't that fun and that eel gave me some
nightmares that still pop up sometimes
that and the sea mine from banjo-kazooie
and that's all the time we have for
