Sam is such an awesome character, and Trick r’ Treat a fantastic film. Glad to see him getting the love

Trick r Treat is such a gem. Discovered it a few years ago and now it's a Halloween tradition in my house.

I always felt Jeepers Creepers was one of the most underrated horror movies. The first one was really creepy.

I love how adorably evil & scary Sam is in Trick R Treat. 🎃 Also another underrated villain from horror could be ones like, Dr. Philip K. Decker from Nightbreed.

Thank you for FINALLY giving Pumpkinhead his due 😭😭

So glad Sam is getting more an more recognized as a true horror villain. I really hope he gets his own independent movie.

Yes, thanks for including Lola of "The Loved Ones." I watched this movie a while ago, and Lola still sticks with me, since you wouldn't expect a teenage girl in a pink prom dress to be a ruthless tormentor.

The villain from 2006"s Joy Ride deserved a spot on this list.

I always thought that Trick r Treat was well known, including Sam. Never knew that both the character and movie are underrated. It’s actually a good horror movie.

Sam in my opinion is the best definition of “don’t judge a book by its cover”

I'm so proud that Sam made #1. Trick 'r Treat is such an underrated Halloween gem.

Angela Baker (14 to 34-years-old) formerly known as Peter Baker played by Felissa Rose. In the original 1983 film, Angela/Peter killed all 9 people, including Judy, Meg, Mel the camp owner, and her cheating boyfriend Paul. 40 YEARS of ‘Sleepaway Camp.’ 🙂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

To be honest I see Sam from Trick r Treat as more of an anti villain than a straight out villain since he's making sure that the traditions of Halloween are respected.

Trick r' Treat is one of the most underrated horror movies ever. I love Sam and everything they did in this movie. When is part 2 coming out. Also I love Leslie Behind the Mask is such a underrated movie as well

Finally, WatchMojo has started to acknowledge the brilliance of Rutger Hauer's performance in The Hitcher. But, he deserved to be in the top 3 easily. Especially when you find out that he served as the inspiration for Heath Ledger's Joker in The Dark Knight.

How is Pamela Voorhees not on this list? She’s so underrated because Jason usually gets all the love. Mrs. Voorhees should of at least got an honorable mention..

Larry Drake as Bubba Ritta in Dark Night of the Scarecrow is excellent.

Thanks for showing some love for The Collector franchise. One of my favorites. Too bad they couldn’t get The Collected made. Also, Sam from Trick r Treat. This was a good list.

Sam is one of my fav horror villins as you never see it coming when you watch it for the 1st time. As you think he is just some pore innocent kid. I would love to see him again.

WHOAAAAAA. As someone who grew up having nightmares from anything vaguely horrific on the screen to a relatively unflappable adult horror fan, The hands popping through the door and ripping the man through at 17:45 just gave me one of those most powerful nostalgia flashbacks of my entire life. Amazing. I was suddenly a terrified 8 year old again for a good 3 seconds.

Don't recall the names of the villains, but Wishmaster, Warlock and Prophecy are pretty underrated franchises

GREAT seeing The Loved Ones on this list. She was so good in that role!! It was cool how the movie made you feel SOOOO sorry for her in the beginning and by the end you wanted to shoot her yourself! The Strangers, The Hitcher, Jeepers Creepers, and Pumpkinhead were great additions too.

Aw Sam is getting some love. Honestly glad that the movie is getting a bit more love as a cult classic cuz it's my favorite.

Thanks for recognizing my favorite slasher character of all, Matt Cordell. The Maniac Cop franchise is too often overlooked. Plus, the first in the series of movies is something of an anomaly in that the first half to two thirds is a bit of a whodunit. You don't know for sure who the Maniac Cop killing people is. I don't think Cordell's name is even mentioned in the first half hour of the movie. The Phantasm Tall Man has always creeped me out. Angus Schrim is, was and always will be and unsung killer in the genre. #RIPAngusSchrim

So glad you included Lola Stone and the Miner! They both have recognizable looks that could easily make for horror icons! (and I just love Lola, partly in a 'love to hate them' way, but also in the sense I kind of laugh at her r/nicegirls behavior)

I just thought of an interesting horror movie idea. What if they took Sam and Krampus, and had them do a crossover battle, just like they did with Freddy vs. Jason. Halloween vs. Christmas, two demon holiday enforcers battling to see which holiday should be respected the most. Just a thought.

Rusty Nail from the Joy Ride trilogy is massively underrated.

The collector and the collection are criminally under rated horror films, unfortunately they just recently cancelled a third film from being made. 😠

The hillbillies from Deliverance. A horror villain need not kill you, but merely leave you scarred for life.

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! Basket case (1982) was also scary back in the 80s. 🤣

Here are some more things that are known about Sam: 1. According to his actor Quinn Lord, he was born in a pumpkin patch. 2. In spite of his childlike appearance, he is in fact hundreds if not thousands of years old, and known in various guises by several cultures around the world. In the 'Trick 'r Treat: Days of the Dead' comic book, there is a segment in which a pioneer girl befriends the daughter of the chief of a local Native- American tribe, who then gives Sarah a handmade doll of Sam (Whom her tribe refers to as "The Great Autumn Spirit"), saying it will protect her from harm. Sarah asks if he is a good spirit because of this, and the chief's daughter responds "I would not say that. But the shaman told me he is very old and very powerful."

I want to add the Odet family in the Wrong Turn series, especially Three Fingers, the creepiest, most insane family in cinema!

So happy Sam has become the symbol of Halloween at spirit stores.

The Hitcher is one of the greatest films ever made. A childhood classic.👍

Jeepers creepers director is definitely an unrated villian in itself.

I need me another Trick R Treat please. Sam needs to come back! I've loved him since my husband introduced him to me in 2015

I've said it before and I will say it again... Jeepers Creepers in the theater was terrifying especially since it was filmed in our county. I grew up two streets over from the slaughterhouse used in the ending scene. It was torn down soon after. I don't know which was worse.. the smell from when it was still in business or the sound of Derry's screams.

I fricking love Sam. I mean, yeah, he's a tad bit murderous and kinda creepy without his mask on, but he only murders people who don't follow the Halloween traditions or who don't give him candy. Besides that, he just seems to be chill. I would give him as much candy as he wants and try to befriend him because what's better than a cute little child-like spirit/demon who can murder people who deserve it with candy?

So many of these ive always read about but never saw or decided to look into. Now I have things to watch.

Yo, I was late on the Trick 'r' Treat movie but damn, I agree it's the #1 underrated villian!

And Sean Bean in The Hitcher remake--because Sean Bean is an amazing villain! The first two Jeepers Creepers films were pretty effective, downhill after that,

Michael Myers vs Sam would be a great battle, just like Freddy vs Jason.

The Tyre from "Rubber" or the Mutant Sheep from "Black Sheep" should be high on the list of Underrated Horror Movie Villains!

I’ll give you credit for pumpkin head and the tall man.

I fully agree with the number one spot, however I’m a little disappointed that Mary Shaw from Dead Silence didn’t even get a mention

I feel like because it wasn’t a popular or well liked movie the Sinclair Brothers in the House of Wax remake from 2005 get overlooked as slasher villains because as creepy as Vincent was Bo was actually more terrifying because he seemed so trustworthy and unassuming upon first look even if there was always something unsettling under the surface and he was definitely the more unhinged of the two we actually knew were Sinclair brothers all along. Than there’s the third brother or “Roadkill Guy” who’s creepy the whole way through but his connection to the other two is only revealed at the end so three creepy brothers who aren’t given enough credit for how creepy they actually are.

The only other one I would add is David from Village of the Damned. He was totally underestimated by everyone in the movie. Even his own kind. They thought he was defective because he was missing his twin and it was the one thing that made him the only one to survive.

Thanks for the Video 😀

I love seeing praise for The Collector/Collection those movies slap

Thank you for including Matt Cordell from Maniac Cop he is underated and hopefully he will get a reboot

I remember the hatchet series and watched em all and i have never in my life see that much level of blood and gore in the series

My little buddy, Sam. Such a cute little guy! Seriously, though, so long overdue for a Trick 'r Treat 2.

Three Finger, Saw-Tooth and One-Eye from the Wrong Turn franchise are so underrated.

There's not many Halloween movies that focus more on the spirit of the holiday itself rather than a machete welding, hocky mask wearing psychopath that refuses to die. I'm glad to see Trick 'r Treat getting the respect and love it deserves. 🎃

Yep, Sam, I agree he's at least top 2. His character stays under my skin everytime I think on it. Jeepers should be #2 or #1. The idea of killing you for one of your body parts, keep me ugly! It doesn't help that the director turned out to be an evil creep, no wonder!

Killer Klowns

Maniac Cop: While there are some parallels to Jason, I did notice in watching marathons on various tv channels in octobers throughout the decades... Cordell can be reasoned with. Can be reminded of who and what he was. I'm not entirely sure the franchise name could be used very well in today's overly-sensitive world, but I would love to see the character expanded on. I think if done smartly, a remake could possibly even stand out as good commentary on modern culture. And of course, there's always the idea that it could be made into a period piece, if people don't want to touch on modern events. People of my generation miss the 80s and 90s, and we're the ones paying for those movie tickets and streaming services... A couple on this list seem out of place, as they're really well-known and essentially mascots of the genera. So, y'all seem to be at least bending your own rules, if not breaking them. As such, I'd submit Christine. The world needs to see more of everyone's favorite regenerating self-driving killer '56 Plymouth Fury. And sadly, things really haven't gotten any better for social outsiders over the decades since the book and movie's setting. Some topical content might have changed, but honestly, a sequel could play on pretty much the same basic story, and still resonate with people.

Sleepaway Camp is absolute garbage, but that final shot of Angela’s crazy face is genuinely creepy and one of the best shots in all of horror.

Sam is definitely not underrated. He's loved by everyone. One of the best horror characters!

Sam from Trick R Treat gave me nightmares as a kid. I saw everything from A nightmare on elm street to saw and nothing freaked me out and then I saw Trick R Treat after it all at the age of 7 and i couldn’t sleep for days

Good call on Maniac Cop!

Mick Taylor and Sam are both so great.

I sleep with my Sam plush every night 😂❤🎃

IMO, Brahms Heelshire. I have met TOO MANY people that love horror/slasher films that didn't even KNOW he existed. It really upsets me, the stinky wall rat man SHOULD get his love!!

I always hoped there would have been more Dr. Phibes films. His killings were never entirely brutal. They all had a certain style and finesse.

Trick r Treat is such a great horror movie!

The collector is my absolute favorite! It's sooooooooooooo underrated. I preach it to anyone tht asks me as an avid horror fan what my favorite is. If u haven't watched I 10 out of 10 reccomend!!!

John Jarrett in the wolf creek movies/show is absolutely one of the best "villain" performances ever. He is just amazing as Mick

The Maniac Cop Trilogy is criminally underrated.👍

Charlie Grimmle from The Gallows should come back !

I used to intone "boy!" the same way as the Tall Man when my son was in trouble.

Nice to see my boy Leslie Vernon getting some recognition.

10, 7, 4 and 1 are all definitely Underrated I love those four movies

What about the movie Thinner? That is an amazing movie but it isn’t well known. Everyone I know hasn’t even heard of it. 😢

Suggestion: Top 10 favorite antiheroes in movies.

Collector amazing franchise glad it made the list

I surprised you didn’t mention of our Krampus movie has access to Grandpa‘s sister krampus

Awesome ❤

Love The Hitcher, the Creeper & Pumpkinhead ! xx

The Strangers scared the crap out of me. "Is Tammy there?" 😬

My favourite villains from top are Creeper and Pumkinhead.Very scary and unpredictable.

These villains are underrated but still amazing characters

Thanks!

Billy is definitely an Og in the slasher genre. 🥰

Always loved the hitcher. Have owned a copy from the beginning

Sam isn’t a villain like Krampus, they are there to uphold the holiday traditions.

17:20 i would never forgot that japonese torture..... the head on a stick....

Leslie Vernon is so underrated

Jigsaw got tobe mine he's no supernatural nor unkillable, just a psychotic mastermind that can easily get away.

I LOVE Sam from "Trick 'r Treat!"

I would absolutely love to see a Trick 'r Treat 2! Sam was always the cutest little murderer!

The tall man actor from the phantasm movie passed away some years ago

The hitcher is one of my favorite movies with Rutger Hauer. That and LadyHawke

Weird to call the Creeper or Victor Crowley (and even Pumpkinhead) underrated when they each spawned multiple sequels is... a stretch.

Can we talk about Mary freakin’ Shaw😭😭 she scared the heck outta me

The creature from the movie FEAST should've been on this list

Hi Kirsten have a great weekend 😍

22:03 They should start making Trick 'r Treat 2 right now.

Creepy, unsettling, and horrifying they definitely got the basics down.
