Contest: ENTER SF&F Avatar Contest: Feature Creatures

[Kai "the spy"]

Alright, it's Halloween week, so obviously we needed an appropriate theme, so this is about monsters of the big screen. From the number of adaptations of Frankenstein (beginning in 1910), the countless vampire movies, the demons, ghosts, zombies, ghouls, alien creatures and kaijus, the monsters have been popular throughout film history (and before that).

As usual, entries may not be larger than 200x200 pixels and/or 1 Mb data, and as the old media hypocrisy of "violence and gore are yay, but nudity is not" unfortunately also matters in new media (curse you, GoogleAds), better be careful how you crop that "Species" avatar.

Each user may enter up to three avatars.

this is about monsters of the big screen

just to be clare.. this mean no series?

Oh, I briefly considered doing a film-only limitation, based on the title I came up with for the contest, and that's a bit of a left-over. But I ultimately think it's silly to do limitations based on semantics. Especially these days when we have far less participants than we used to just a few years ago.
So, yes, TV is okay.

I think the Kaiju intended avatars of "fictional" monsters.

Sadly all too real and not genre.

I had forgotten all about Basket Case. Tourneur’s Night of the Demon puppet was great.

The OP said "monsters of the big screen" That's from a tv episode, so not from the " big screen."

The OP said "monsters of the big screen" That's from a tv episode, so not from the " big screen."

And then, when asked about it in the first response, I clarified and allowed small screen monsters, too.
