Discuss: Who’s The Baddest Monster Hunter of All-Time?

Who is the Baddest Monster Hunter of All-Time?

Over on the AMC Television blogs site, Scott Sigler compares monster hunters to spiders. Without spiders, “the world would be overrun by insects,” he says. And without monster hunters, the world would soon be infested with “vampires, zombies, werewolves, mummies, ghosts, witches, serial killers and mansquitoes.”

You can find the article over at Horror Hacker, and place your nominations in the comments section (you will need to register). Joss Whedon has requested that you nominate Buffy for the top prize. She’s my top pick as well.

So far, some of the names put forth by commenters on the AMC site have included Riddick, Peter Cushing as Van Helsing, Ripley from the Alien movies, Bruce Campbell as Ash from the Evil Dead films, and, of course, the mighty Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Who is your pick for the baddest monster hunter of all-time?

    Hell yeah! Kolchak was bad-ass. ...Wait, I'm thinking of Stuart Townsend's Kolchak. Hey, he was cool, too.

    My vote goes to Ellen Ripley. She's the most badass of them all!!!

    Ash definetly.

    He didn't have magical powers, high tech weapons, or extrademensional help, he had to do it all on his own with whatever was at hand. Or not.

    Ash and Ripley are the most badass. Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy) couldn't kick one's ass.
