Best of the Worst?

[twiggymarie]

So, as I was waiting for my bedsheets to finish washing, I was lurking around the web, trying to find more info on the new Pennywise movie, and stumbled on a question that got me thinking. Then I wanted to know your thoughts on it as well.

1. Overall, who(or what) is your favorite villain of King's in print so far?

Randall Flagg, definitely.

2. Who do you think the creepiest average Joe villain is?

Brady Hartsfield or Charles Burnside (I couldn't pick because they're both FUBAR!)

3. Which phantasmic/supernatural villain do you think is the most terrifying?

IT or Maerlyn

Gaunt's from Needful Things, right? I need to read that again. Don't think I have in quite a while!

1. Crimson King

2. Carrie's Mom

3. Anything that crawled out of The Prim....

I thought about Margaret White for a while, but I think she was just mentally off. I think somewhere in her brain, she thought she was protecting Carrie. While she was fruitier than a fruitcake, I could kinda see why she was the way she was. Sort of. Both Hartsfield and Burnside were just really, really messed up. There was very little, if anything, human about them.

Great answers, though!

Mayhaps I should have clarified that the last two questions were also concerning King's characters...

I cannot choose Between Brady, Rev Charlie and Annie.

2. Who do you think the creepiest average Joe villain is?

Brady, come on, the fact that it is possible to have a person in the real world that has a same mindset as him is already creepy

3. Which phantasmic/supernatural villain do you think is the most terrifying?

Mother from Revival, for me, because i've dream of Ants after reading revival haha. Kidding, i might choose IT actually

The Man in the Black Suit

Didn't expect anyone to say that but great call.

Mine are:

1, pennywise
2, John rainbird (firestarter)
3, pennywise

Choosing pennywise twice may seem boring or unimaginative, but everyone should know how much I love that book.

It appears I should read needful things, there seems to be a lot of love-hate for leland gaunt.

Oh, I heartily suggest you do! Gaunt is...one of a kind.

If it doesn't grab you right away, give it a chance. I know that I was 'meh' about Needful Things the first time, but it grew on me
