25 Movie Villains People Think They Can Outrun For 24 Hours And Stay Alive

When one Redditor came up with a totally far-fetched, yet intriguing idea to make money, many users’ interest was piqued. The mechanics involved outlasting a classic horror movie villain of your choice for 24 hours to pocket a staggering $3 billion. 

#1 I’ll go with Candyman. I can avoid saying Candyman three times in 24 hours. How hard can it be to not say Candyman?

…

F**k!

#2 The predator. I’m weak and a woman no predator would risk being made fun of for killing such a pathetic prey.

#3 Probably the ring, she takes like 7days to show up. I don’t even have to change my habits.

#4 Tempted to say the babadook bc i could just buy and feed him worms, so I not only get the money, but also an insanely awesome and relatively cheap pet.

#5 I think I’d go with Death Bed: The Bed That Eats, from 1977’s *Death Bed: The Bed That Eats,* because Death Bed: The Bed That Eats is a bed.

#7 How about Gremlins?

They’re basically a cute Furby unless you give them water. And even if, they’re mostly annoying and I could definitely take one of them for 24 hours but also chilling with the “cute” version doesn’t sound so bad either.

Edit:
Okay okay, I meant Mogwai you nitpicky basterds ??.

#8 Paul Reiser’s character from Aliens. He’s the real villain of the movie, not the Alien Queen, and I think I could take him.

#12 I have actually thought about this a lot ever since I read Christine way too young. I think it will be quite easy to stay safe from a possessed car.

#13 The killer from scream bc it’s literally just a guy in a mask. Get some pepper spray and I’m golden.

#16 Freddy. We came to an understanding long ago when I was laying in my bed after watching A Nightmare on Elm Street when I was a kid. I just said “you know Freddy, we cool, you’re not bad, in fact I just think you’re misunderstood, please don’t invade my dreams and kill me.” I haven’t died yet so I’m still working under the assumption the we cool.

#20 That tire that kills people.

#21 Dracula. My skin is so pale and I eat so much garlic all I need to do is flash him and say hello and he’ll disintegrate.

#22 Michael Myers or Jason. Those a******s just walk everywhere. I’d go on a road trip in my car. Maybe circle around a few times to honk at them and flip them off.

#23 The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man. I’ll just catch a flight somewhere, he’ll never catch me. Also, he’s easy to see.

#24 Easy, the mummy. He can’t bend his legs, so he’s definitely gonna run slowly.

#25 The merman from “Cabin in the woods”. Easily escapable.
