Welcome, everyone, to the successivo Halloween oriented list. This week, we’ll be looking at the eight legged creepy crawlies te always find in the corners of a dark room. Spiders. Now, spiders are probably the least scariest things on this list… To me anyway. There are hundreds of people with a fear of spiders,known as arachnophobia. And with spiders hown growing larger and bigger and becoming the size of a house, I doubt they get any less scary. So, today, we will be looking at the ten spiders from movies, tv shows, and video games. Now, before we begin, a few rules. Only one ragno per franchise, and only from what I have seen. Now, with that said, let us start the list.
#10: Robot ragno from Wild Wild West
Hey, I never detto the spiders had to be living ones, did I? While Wild Wild West is remembered as that god awful movie that nobody likes (And for good reason), I still Amore the design for the Robot Spider. Just look at this thing. It’s a giant steam powered robotic ragno in the Old West. And if te know me, te would know that I Amore anything that looks that awesome in a different time period. Now, I am just going off the design here. There is really nothing else. Sure, it has cannons o some crap, but seriously. IT’S A GIANT STEAM POWERED SPIDER! That is the coolest thing ever, and it is probably the only thing people liked about this movie. And for good reason.
#9: The Metal Queen from Brutal Legend
te thought the Robot ragno was awesome? How about a ragno made out of metal. When Eddie needs to get thicker strings for The Kill Master in order to heal Ophelia, he goes inside the Lair of the Metal Queen, which is a large cavern filled with ragno webs and little angry spiders. Some even come out of humans stuck in webs. Once Eddie does finally reach the cuore of the cave where thick strings are found, he is forced to fight the Metal Queen. The Metal Queen isn’t one to mess with though. She can strike te with her large blades, shoot acidic webs at you, and send a swarm of tiny little spiders to hurt te over time. And another thing. SHE HAS SO MUCH HEALTH! It took me over ten minuti to finally beat her. She’s not hard, but she takes so long to kill. And, just like the Robot Spider, her design is just so awesome looking. Seriously. Look at her! She’s made out of f***ing metal. Sure, she may not be in the most popolare game, but dammit if she isn’t a really good spider.
#8: carlotta, charlotte from Charlotte’s Web
Oh, I’m sorry. Were te expecting every single ragno on this lista to be a threatening eight legged freak from Hell? Well, carlotta, charlotte is definitely not that, I assure you. Now, I am going off of the carlotta, charlotte I know from the 1973 animated film… And not the 2006 Charlotte. That one freaking terrifies me. When Wilbur is sent to Zuckerman’s farm, he is not able to make Friends with anyone there at the time, until he meets a polite ragno named Charlotte. carlotta, charlotte is seen as a friendly ragno who is the first friend Wilbur has at the new farm. And this is proven throughout the movie (Or book if you're really old school), will Wilbur is planned to be slaughtered for food. carlotta, charlotte than does everything she can to make Wilbur famous in order to keep him from being killed. That is what makes carlotta, charlotte a great spider. She is always there for Wilbur no matter what, despite her size. And that is why she is on this list… But, let's go back to the threatening spiders.
#7: Skulltula Family from Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Yeah, te all knew that a ragno would be on this list. I would have chosen any of the bosses, but that would have been too obvious. Plus, I find these guys to be più interesting. The Skulltula Family were once humans who were extremely rich, but due to their greed, they were all turned into Skulltulas themselves. The only way for the curse on them to be broken is if someone (More specifically, Link), were to go around Hyrule and defeat all Golden Skulltulas and take their Tokens. Once ten Tokens are found, a curse would be broken on the kids, and after all one hundred (Yes, 100) are found, the curse on the father is broken. For each member saved, te are rewarded with a rare item. Either a bigger wallet, a treasure tracking device, o a Piece of Heart. I really do wonder what più of their backstory is like. Oh well, that is what makes Zelda games great. Always keep te wondering about the world.
#6: Frostbite Spiders from Skyrim
Oh boy, I do apologize for these ones. These are the first actual, non-metal o robotic spiders on this lista that are giant, so I probably expect a few of te to be squeamish. Unlike most bugs in this game, Frostbite Spiders will always attack no matter what. Their health and strength depend on their size, and they are also able to shoot venom at you, which te can harvest and use on your weapons. They are mostly found in the wilderness, dungeons, o mines. These spiders always make sounds depending on what they are doing. When walking, they make a rustling sound. When waiting to attack, they make a purring sound. And of all the sounds they could have chosen when it attacks, why did they choose a nightmarish scream?! Oh, and it gets worse. There are even bigger ones. Normal Frostbite Spiders are as big as a dog, but the larger ones are taller than your damn character. And they are even stronger. The only reason they didn’t make it to the superiore, in alto five is because they can be domestic pets. Lis is a ragno and pet of Gabriella, so it’s obvious that these spiders can be tamed. Better that than getting poisoned da the little bastards.
#5: Black Tiger from Resident Evil
When my Friends told me that there was this thing called Black Tiger in the game, I got so excited, because I was expecting a giant tiger in the game. When I found him, all I saw was a giant spider. First off, I detto “That lying son of a bitch”. Of course, that was after I nearly pissed myself in fear because THIS THING IS CREEPY! Apparently, like every damn thing else in the mansion, this ragno was tested on da scientists, but the test was seen as a major screw up on their part, and they tried to get rid of the thing. However, the B.O.W chemicals made it grow larger and made it stronger, as well as become the leader of other smaller spiders named Web Spinners, because Giant ragno scary enough. Oh, and let me remind te this is in the same game with a Giant Snake and a Giant Plant… Yeah….
#4: Mimi from Super Paper Mario
Oh my god. And I thought Legend of Zelda would have the scariest ragno on this lista when it comes to Nintendo games, but after playing this… Oh my god. So te first meet Mimi as a young girl, who is just one of those spoiled girls. te see her a lot around Level 2-4, but never once is she seen as being a threat. I mean, it’s a Mario game, so, what do te expect. However, once te make it to the basement… Oh my god. She then breaks her neck, spins her head around at a 360 degree angle three times, and then sprouts legs out of her head, turning into a spider… Ugh. The main reason she’s on the lista is the build up and the transformation, which is just nightmarish. Can’t say the same for the fight which is…. actually kind of easy.
#3: Shelob from Lord of the Rings
Here is the first movie ragno I ever saw. And what a damn way to start off my spider-viewing experience. Little is known about Shelob, other than the fact that she was born from some ragno with a far too long and confusing name, and I am an American, so I am too lazy to look it up. Anyway, Shelob is known for eating EVERYTHING! Humans, Elves, Hobbits, Dwarves, Orcs, even her own children. Everything for her is fair gain for her. She is only able to live there because Sauron needed her to be the perfect guard for his secret paths. She is first seen when Frodo is taken to her da Orcs. Here, Sam finds Frodo in a silk cocoon, unconscious due to Shelob’s poison. And let me tell you, Lord of the Rings is already scary enough, but it’s made even più scary with a giant ragno in pitch black darkness. That is why I remember this scene from the movie so well. Just the dark colori and the giant ragno is so creepy, yet so good. I also remember having a figurine of him when I was a kid. I would always make fictional adventures of Aragon killing the thing instead of Sam. Yep, making fanfics before I ever heard of them.
#2: ragno Queen from Okami
Oh my god. I think we may have found the most terrifying ragno on this list. The ragno Queen is a large ragno with a womans head and a fiore on her back with eyes in it. She is first seen as a simple spider, but after the revival of Orochi, she then becomes hostile, destroying the nearby towns river. When te do fight her, get ready to be disturbed. Other than appearances, the ragno Queen is actually based on Japanese mythology known as the Jorogumo. The Jorogumo is a ragno that changes her form into a prostitute, and her name translated literally means “prostitute spider”. She would seduce men, lead them into her home, and then feed them to her children, which is just terrifying. Oh, and one più thing. The ragno Queen; She’s the game's very first boss. No, screw that. I’ve had enough. Good day.
#1: ragno from Limbo
I know what some of te are thinking. How is this ragno so much worse than a little girl who can turn into a spider, a giant ragno that eats everything, and a ragno that is literally named Prostitute Spider. Well, I’ll tell te if te be quiet. Throughout the forest level of Limbo, te are constantly being hunted da this ragno for unknown reasons. te then see that this thing is trying to impale te with it’s legs and try to eat you. So, you're best way to fight back is to try and tear it’s legs off. But that only makes it angrier. After te do so, it will leave, and try to kill te again later. And after te tear off più legs, it is just a one legged spider, and it still tries to kill you, until te tear off the last leg. After that, te use it’s legless body as a bridge to pass to the successivo area. What makes this ragno number one is not size, of strength o looks. No. It’s how the creators made it. It made is a slow moving, yet deadly creature, and made it very subtle, as it is just a shadow, and it isn’t so hard to see. Honestly, seeing something sposta towards te slowly is ten times più scary than something that is lightning fast. And isn’t the whole point of Halloween to be scared? And that is what makes this ragno number one.
So, there te have it. Did te enjoy the list. Tell me what te thought of it. With that said, I will see te all successivo time.
#10: Robot ragno from Wild Wild West
