Every horror movie needs its horror villain. Otherwise there would be nothing to be afraid of. Horror villains tend to be the personification (or monster-ification) of something that we revile in society. They represent greed, neglect, or rage, acting unbridled on their basest instincts. Some are evil for evil's sake. Some serve retribution to those who deserve it. Some are misunderstood, and some are figments of our imaginations. But all of them scare the pants off of us.
It's always interesting to see how villains evolve over time. Back in the heyday, they were campy, grotesque monsters with a face full of prosthetics. Now, filmmakers favor more ephemeral or metaphorical villains. But thank goodness we still get to Nicholas Cage in crazy horror makeup. So if you're a fan of any of the above, you're in luck with these memes. Just don't go to sleep, or they might meet you in your dreams. Happy Halloween.
