It being the Halloween season, it got me thinking if the bad guys from your favorite Horror films were Phish fans, what would be their favorite songs. So, in no particular order, here’s the Top 10 Horror Movie Villains and their favorite Phish songs.
10. Hannibal Lector. Mr. Creepy from Silence of the Lambs would get “Chalk Dust Torture” no doubt given his passion for the criminally insane.
9. The Wolfman. Hate to be obvious here but c’mon, the Wolfman would certainly keep it phamily with “Wolfman’s Brother”!
8. Jason Vorhees. The machete wielding, hockey mask wearing, killer of Crystal Lake campers would likely be getting Phishy with “Weigh.”
7. Leatherface. Fire up the chainsaw, this Texas Chainsaw Massacre villain plays homage to his other passion with “Meatstick”. Don’t dance to close to him at the show…that saw is sharp and he’s hungry.
6. Chucky. The little doll with so much anger inside. Chucky has a inferiority complex being a two foot tall doll so, he’ll want to be front row center as he rocks his multi-colored socks off to “Carini”.
5. Frankenstein. With his electric personality, the only thing that get’s Frank dancing is a jolt of “AC/DC Bag”.
4. Michael Myers. The guy with serious skills with a blade and clear mental issues from Halloween films. No doubt “Down With Disease” will get his feet moving.
3. Freddy Krueger. Gloved with razor sharp blades on one hand and a charred look on his face, Freddy kills you while you sleep. Seems fitting that he would be getting his Phish on to “Rift.”
2. Pennywise. A clown who kills children in Stephen King’s “IT”. Oh the irony. Of course, Pennywise the dancing clown’s ears will perk up when he hears Phish perform “When the Circus Comes to Town.” (We know it’s a cover of Los Lobos song)
1. Ghostface. The killer of co-eds from the movie “Scream,” Ghostface has a fondness for offing his buddies. His Phish get-down tune can only be “My Friend, My Friend.”
