Pennywise the Dancing Clown
NO, there is no monster in Shawshank Redemption and Pennywise is not in Shawshank. I just can't find a way for Listal to acknowledge that Stephen King's IT is a MOVIE and not a TV show. (Yes, I am aware it first appeared as a mini-series)
Why?
1. He is a CHILD EATING CLOWN!
2. Appears in random sewers, drains, toilets, moving photographs, closets, and small wooded areas.
3. Can transform into exactly what a child fears the most.
4. Anythings that ends up as a giant egg laying sewer spider gets number one in my book.

Freddy Krueger
I wasn't going to put him up originally. His corny jokes as he kills almost got him eliminated, but he's here...and here's:

2. Because sooner or later, you have to sleep so csooner or later, he will get everyone he sets his sights on.
3. Because there is the added creep factor that he was once a child molester, and now hunts young adults.

1. Because they are giant hairballs, easy to walk right past and dismiss, until they get you from behind.
2. Because they breed like little toothed sadistic rabbits and infest a place like termites...but they don't eat wood.
3. Because of that crazy little paralysis spike that they can shoot at anyone who tries to run away.
4. I've always been creeped out about something that can roll after you and then stop and open a mouth that is half the size of its body.

1. He creeps around in the dark killing people, sucking their blood, and converting others to vampires.

Clash of the Titans (2010)
The Kraken
Why?
1. Because of the legend behind it, and growing up on poems that warned us all that "the kraken has awakened at the bottom of the seas."
2. Because it is a destroyer straight out of mythology of not just armies, but entire cities, countries, and coastlines.
3. Because it is forged from the flesh of the lord of the Underworld. That's enough for me.
4. Mouth the size of a small mountain and once again layered in teeth.

4. The thing can open two sets of mouths when it's angry...and one set has got horns around it!

The Ring Wraiths, The Mouth of Sauron, Shelob, the Balrog...
Why?
1. Nine immortal beings all dressed like reapers, riding bloody horses or long necked dragons, and singularly obsessed with a ring that you just happen to have. Sounds like a party.
2. A giant spider that eats orcs for breakfast, and spews paralyzing venom so that she can eat you later. Another party!
3. A creature from the depths of the world that is older and more powerful than any of the conflict that Sauron could ever cause, is made of fire and breaths it just for good measure.
4. A blind dark figure with a mouth that looks like it has been recently sliced into him and a smile that chills the blood, who talks in the deepest voice you heard, and just happens to be called "the mouth" of the most evil thing in the world at the time.

This is the list of the movie creations that I would least likely enjoy waking up to...or encountering in any way, shape, or form, thank you very much. No humans, semi-humans, or zombified humans in this one, sorry. The closest we come is a ghost or two.
