Lycanthropy! 1: Classics (CLOSED)

[Evil Dave]

As I'm sure you've all noticed I've got a soft spot for the shapeshifters. So I made this battle to find out which wolf is the king. Matchups will be chosen by me based on a factor that makes the opponents similar. Please make your selections based on which MONSTER you like better, not which movie you like more. If you haven't seen any of the movies than make your selection based on the pictures and monster stats that I've provided. Thanks!

REMEMBER, THIS IS A COMPETITION BASED ON JUST THE MONSTERS!!!

There will be 12 opening matchups. Winners will move on when they receive 3 votes(including mine), and I will break any ties. The final 3 winners will square of against each other in a championship round where the entry that receives the most votes being declared the champion.

An American Werewolf in London[glow=red,2,300]***[/glow]

VS.

The Wolfman

This matchup is between two of the most well known and popular were-baddies to have appeared in film. Here's the stats:

AWiL
--Quadriped version
--Shapeshift during full moon ONLY
--Loses ability to think like human when in wolf form
--No special "rules" to kill
--BEST transformation ever
--Very viscious, very powerful, kills quick
--most blood curdling howl of any were-baddie

The Wolf Man
--Biped Version
--Shapeshift during full moon ONLY
--Loses ability to think like human when in wolf form
--Kill Rules: silver, decapitation
--pretty lame transformation (it's the granddaddy of werewolf flicks, what do you expect?)
--fairly viscious, but not overpowering & can be fought off or escaped

There you go my heathens, vote or die!

Great idea on the Werewolf Contest Dave!
I love werewolves too as you already know
Maybe we can have a vampire contest next or something
Well, just your description+pictures make it fairly obvious which one you're leaning towards.
The Wolf Man may be a classic but due to advancements in technology and ideas, it'll just never be up there.
Vote goes to American Werewolf in London (would have voted the same on the movie too)
Didn't he say that the contest WASN'T based on the movies tsmooth? And yes, we know what you think he looks like

i know its not based on movies..i was just stating that i like it better..how good the movie is clearly can play a factor in it tho..its not like you can just block that out...ya know? either way tho i hate the wolfman guy so i would vote for a piece of crap over him

[Alien_Destroyer]

Well you've got to try I guess
Let me think of a great character from a bad movie...
You know what? That's a good topic!
I think I'd vote for a Furby over the Wolf Man, not a piece of crap

This one was over before it started.......................I'm voting AWiL too. I'll always have a special nostalgic place for Lon Cheney's version, as it's always gonna be the grandpappy of 'em all. But the AWiL wolf is just so damn cool! As a whole, I've always leaned towards the bipedal critters over the quadripedal versions, buy Rick Baker did a helluva job creating such a viscious looking beast that I don't even care how it walks. And that howl! One of the truly blood chilling sounds in film history IMO.

AWiL advances................And I've got a feeling it's going to be tough to beat!
