Like say Dracula has hordes of minions, and he's impossible to pin down because he has easy ways to escape, but if you actually corner him and there's no way out -- you should still be in for the fight of your life, because this is Dracula, and he eats heroes for breakfast.Did you ever read The Call of Cthulhu? Do you remember how tense and dramatic the buildup to his awakening was? Do you remember how quickly he went down, like a chump, and how he's been the laughingstock of the entire genre ever since? Cthulhu is a prime example of a bad horror villain. He's a joke, and that's how he will always be remembered.</blockquote>
