What weapon do you think has been used the most in horror films? Knife, axe, chainsaw? I was going to say egg plant, then I realized it was only used in Student Bodies. I think guns, which reminds me of the Cotton Candy Gun (More of those Killer Klowns: The Killer Klowns From Outer Space) There is a great scene in the movie with the Klowns walking down the street, zapping people and turning them into pink eggplants, then sucking up the cotton candy treats with a huge vacuum that's attached to the front of their Klown death machine. Clowns are way scary enough without having ‘K’s in their name and being from another planet, but it certainly makes it that much worse when they can cocoon you in Killer Kotton Kandy. |

Speaking of weapons, how about a list of the most UNUSUAL?
(as seen on http://omghorror.blogfaction.com/article/100979/feature-the-17-greatest-horror-movie-weapons-ever/) 1. Lawnmower From: Dead Alive Used by: Lionel Cosgrove In what's arguably the single bloodiest scene in any movie ever made, the gangly protagonist in Peter Jackson's Dead Alive uses a lawnmower towards the end of the movie to liquefy an entire house loaded with zombies, splattering blood, bowels, and body parts everywhere in the process. Any fan of gore will tell you that this classic scene will show you a level of violence you've never been exposed to. 2. Necktie From: Frenzy Used by: Robert Rusk Normally, the necktie is an item of formal dress. You wear one if you're going to a wedding, an anniversary dinner, a funeral, a shunting ceremony, or if you have a 6 figure job. However, in Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy, the necktie is used by the film's redheaded killer (who appears on the surface to be a well-mannered gentleman) to asphyxiate females in order to get off. The next time your mother or loved one bugs you about putting on a tie so you look "nice" for whatever event you're going, you can always bring up Frenzy's necktie killer. 3. Gynecological Tools for Mutant Women From: Dead Ringers Used by: Beverly Mantle If you haven't experienced David Cronenberg's unsettling masterpiece Dead Ringers, go see it. It's about two identical twin brothers who both work together as gynecologists and share everything, including the women they're boinking. To make things even creepier, Beverly (the nicer brother) starts to lose his mind and gets some vagina-mutilating gynecological tools custom made for "mutant women." After he attempts to use them on a patient, Dr. Beverly gets fired and eventually murders his twin brother with the tools. While not originally intended to be weapons but something to operate on chicks with 3 cervical entrances ("trifurcate uterus") , the tools in Dead Ringers gain a new deadlier purpose. 4. Pizza Cutter From: Into the Mirror (Geoul Sokeuro) Used by: Choi Mi-jeong's Reflection In this Korean horror film, a girl is slain by a reflection of herself. As she gazes into the mirror, her mirror image slashes her throat wide open with a pizza cutter, causing the girl to choke on her own blood. While it's hard to look at a pizza cutter the same way after seeing Into the Mirror, we're just glad it wasn't caked in old pizza cheese and crumbs like the ones we're used to seeing. Food + deep wounds = one frickin disgusting infection. 5. Television Set From: Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer Used by: Henry In the gritty 1986 movie Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (which is loosely based on the confessions of real life murderer Henry Lee Lucas), Henry and his prison buddy Otis are insulted by a black market merchant who tells them they only have enough money for a black and white television. Henry doesn't like the idea of watching his homemade snuff films on a black and white set, so he takes the TV and smashes it over the head of the dealer. What a great way to kill someone... in a movie that is. 6. Pogo Stick From: Leprechaun Used by: The Leprechaun There's only one thing worse than having a disproportionate Irishman punch holes all across your torso with a pogo stick--and it's if he clowns you in a horribly-rhyming song while repeatedly gouging you under his weight. And that's exactly what happens in this short video from the awesomely cheesy 1993 horror movie Leprechaun. Who would have thought this child's toy could be put to a better use than making you look like a bouncing idiot? 7. Basketball From: Deadly Friend Used by: Samantha Pringle If there's one thing that can be learned from watching Wes Craven's relatively unknown film Deadly Friend, it's that you shouldn't screw with teenagers who are severely abused by their parents. You especially don't mess with them if they are an immortal cyborg that can explode your face with a basketball using their unholy might. 8. American Flag From: The Hills Have Eyes (2006) Used by: Doug Nothing brings a patriotic tear to my American friend's eye more than witnessing an American flag being used to impale the freakishly deformed head of one of the mutants in The Hills Have Eyes, pulled out of its skull, and then used again to stab straight through the throat of another mutant--We're being facetious here, but we're not joking when we say that this makeshift weapon is unforgettable in the realm of horror. |

Any fan of gore will tell you that this classic scene will show you a level of violence you've never been exposed to. Lawnmower was also used in Night Of The Creeps, Long Island Cannibal Massacre, Killing Spree, Wacko, and Blades(which was a spoof of JAWS, but instead of a shark in an ocean, it's a large mower on a gold course) 4. Pizza Cutter From: Into the Mirror (Geoul Sokeuro) Used by: Choi Mi-jeong's Reflection In this Korean horror film, a girl is slain by a reflection of herself. As she gazes into the mirror, her mirror image slashes her throat wide open with a pizza cutter, causing the girl to choke on her own blood. While it's hard to look at a pizza cutter the same way after seeing Into the Mirror, we're just glad it wasn't caked in old pizza cheese and crumbs like the ones we're used to seeing. Food + deep wounds = one frickin disgusting infection. There's a creepy scene in the early 80's TV movie Don't Go To Sleep, where the ghost girl is running a pizza cutter along the wall and stairwell as she creeps up stairs. 7. Basketball From: Deadly Friend Used by: Samantha Pringle If there's one thing that can be learned from watching Wes Craven's relatively unknown film Deadly Friend, it's that you shouldn't screw with teenagers who are severely abused by their parents. You especially don't mess with them if they are an immortal cyborg that can explode your face with a basketball using their unholy might. And in the early 80's flick Fear No Evil, a student is killed with a dodge ball during PE.  |

another unusual weapon is from Headless Eyes 1971. A man goes on an eye-gouging spree using a spoon!!!!

For Sale: Infamous 'Amityville Horror' House
(May 25) -- The real estate listing for the infamous "Amityville Horror" house on Long Island, N.Y., could read as follows: For sale: haunted house. Amenities include ghosts and occasional Halloween gawkers. The so-called haunted house that chilled moviegoers in 1979's "The Amityville Horror" is on the market for $1.15 million and is described as a pristine five-bedroom Dutch colonial located along a canal. It was also the place where Ronald DeFeo Jr. murdered six family members as they slept in 1974, a crime that reportedly haunted the home's subsequent owners, George and Kathleen Lutz, and spawned the 1977 best-seller "The Amityville Horror: A True Story." http://www.aolnews.com/weird-news/article/for-sale-infamous-amityville-horror-house/19490554 http://www.boingboing.net/2010/05/25/amityville-horror-ho.html
