The reason I say that is because I don't believe anything (horror related) will be as timeless as the Universal Monsters. I think a revamped MB would fare better than something like Saw. 30 years from now people will clearly know who Frankie, Drac, the Creech are etc, but Saw, maybe not so much. Especially since they've been absorbed into the Halloween culture. Don't get me wrong, I think anything horror related in pinball is good, I just believe they are on different levels. So for me, the ultimate would be a Haunted House themed pin that is hosted by Elvira and along the way you encounter all the Universal Monsters. I think I would also incorporate a small amount of the 70's and 80's guys as well. Like Jason, Freddy, Michael Myers and Pinhead.
Quoted from spfxted:Forbidden Planet.
I love Forbidden planet. It was actually on TV a few weeks ago and I caught the tail end of it.
Quoted from toyotaboy:Make it so:
I would love to see the 1960's TV Addams family as well.
Quoted from TheLaw:.
New Munsters show tanked recently, probably wont happen.
Just like The Addams Family, there is no replacing the originals.
Quoted from canea:but Dead Alive
I've never seen this movie, it looks like it would be right down my alley.
Quoted from pinmanguy:I vote evil dead still. Like everyone else
It is a theme that encompasses everything I'd like to see in a pin.
Quoted from DynamiteSJ:I second the motion for Rob Zombie pin....
I like a lot of what Rob Zombie has done, musically and in cinema. I think it would make a great theme for a pin. Unfortunately, his latest film, The Lords of Salem, left me a little flat. It was like 90 minutes of an incoherent acid trip.
Quoted from Bohdi:Still think another Elvira themed pin would be a hit. They hit 2 home runs with the other 2. Imagine a 2014 Elvira by Stern or JJP??
We've been saying this for years. Have you ever seen the thread Nordman started last year?

Quoted from SpookyCharlie:This won't be our last Spooky / horror themed pin by a long shot.
I see no reason why you couldn't specialize in that genre.
