Board 8 > What monster do you think you'd have the best chance against in a fight?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Now granted, I'm not a professional hunter or anything, but I'm fairly certain I could take most animals if I had a gun. Bigfoot seems the most susceptible to a good old-fashion bullet to the face (or chest) out of this list, so that's what I voted for. Even if you were to remove guns from the equation, I'd probably lose then in that case, but still fare the best against Bigfoot out of that list.

Vampire seems easiest to kill since they have so many weaknesses

Oh cool someone already asked the werewolf question.

Ghost easily since all it can do is make little dots on camera film, and if you scream "begone spirit" a few times it goes away

Frankenstein's Monster since it doesn't actually want to hurt anybody

which means humans are the real monsters of course

Best chance is against a Bigfoot. Theyre hypothetically mortal (non-magical), so guns can kill them. The rest are either too powerful or too numerous.

All y'all people voting yeti are forgetting one thing: fairies win by default, because they don't exist. A yeti might be able to tank a bullet, and 10 zombies can surround you. What can fairies do? Have cartoons made about them?

Slasher Villain has way too many votes. Those dudes can teleport, survive almost anything, and 99% of us don't fit the bill of a Final Girl.

That was in the back of mind - are we granting them the quasi-supernatural powers they have in movies? If we are that might change my vote. If not, I still think you could rig up enough Home Alone style traps - only deadly - and win.

I'll grant the bigfoot arguments are convincing, at least.

the Home Alone style traps are deadly

Harry and Marv are just too OP to be killed

fair point

The poll says Jason-esque slashers, and Jason has a bunch of supernatural bullshit.

I've never seen a Jason movie so I assumed it was just a normal slasher.

Feels like that is a bit of a bait and switch

Fairies are the only thing on that list that do actually exist

The first four movies, hes just a normal guy who appears where he shouldnt, and at one point is scared of a woman with a butcher knife. During 6 and beyond, hes an immortal undead who explicitly teleports when no one can see him.

Pretty much all of the popular slasher movie villains are quasi-supernatural or explicitly supernatural.

Going with the Yeti. Vampires could be really tough depending on the interpretation (many don't have all the traditional weaknesses) as could Zombies (many aren't slow)

Yeti haven't seen anything that would make it much more scary than a Grizzly Bear. Seems like a big gun/explosives and advantageous terrain would win you that one.

Just means you won't know which kind of vampire you are fighting right away. Could be the kind weak to silver, could be the stake to the heart kind, could be the sparkly super powered kind.

Where are you getting explosives and big guns in 24 hours?

I could probably pick up an assault rifle in 24 hours here in Florida

If you make a post on facebook explaining this situation you'll have a bunch of gun dudes jumping at the excuse to use their guns, within a couple hours

I picked the Yeti, simply because they're the least supernatural of the group.

I couldn't beat a grizzly bear in a fistfight, but if I had time to prepare I'd probably be able to get an appropriate weapon.

But if you are going to dismiss this historic film as just a man in a costume, you should realize that almost all Bigfoot enthusiasts will claim that it shows an actual Bigfoot or is at least an accurate portrayal of one.

Well they probably wouldn't have become bigfoot enthusiasts if they thought it was just a man in a suit

Can you kill a ghost though? The stipulation is you have to kill it

Burn the ghost's human remains or the object its spirit is tied to.

Sure, like I said just say BEGONE or hang up some crosses.

There's been like 100 billion deaths in all of history. And yet we only have a couple thousand ghosts still around (coincidentally concentrated at tourist trap towns off the highway). So they are really not the most resilient bunch.

Lupin III took a baseball bat and beat down a yeti just to harvest its tears.
