Doe-eyed things that go bump in the night. Godzilla is a favorite monster. Some titles include things that I really think are monsters. Some titles have "monster" in them. I'm glad for this contest. It was hard not to go the Robot route. I'll give full marks to anyone that uses "The Machmen" by Gary Numan. Like the cover? Thanks, MB. You creepy, creepy child born out of wedlock.

1	Oingo Boingo : No One Lives Forever
	"I'm so happy dancing while the Grim Reaper cuts, cuts, cuts, but he can't get me." Classic. A good friendship of mine was forged because Mike knew the lyrics to this classic. I love how it ends with Danny asking, "Are you ready for a little hoedown?" SHOW MORE
