jjporDay Fourteen: The Villain Who Scared You the Most
Sorry to go delving into the childhood nostalgia again, but I was thinking the other day about classic Who* moments that really scared me as a nipper. There were several; I can picture them now and they still give me a little bit of a tingle despite them not seeming objectively scary any more. In no particular order, they would be; the faces getting melted off in Resurrection of the Daleks; the glass Dalek in Revelation of the Daleks; the bit where Mags starts turning into a werewolf in Greatest Show in the Galaxy; the bit where Peri is turning into a bird in Vengeance on Varos. And this bloke:
So yeah, maybe it was the voice, maybe it was the way he was introduced as a shadow before revealing himself, maybe it was the incredibly realistic mask that must have represented a sizeable chunk of S26's effects budget, or maybe it was the drool... Whatever it was, the Destroyer out of Battlefield absolutely scared the proverbial out of me, and he still does in a way, even all this time later.
The Brig sorted him out though...
*I don't count NuWho scary moments, btw, because that would involve admitting that my 27 or 28-year-old self spent a good part of The Empty Child and indeed The Impossible Planet in a state of absolute dread... It was fantastic, as Nine would say! XD
