10 Precise Moments Horror Icons Stopped Being Scary

10. The Cabin In The Woods - Sexy Wolf Kiss

The Cabin in the Woods is probably the best horror spoof movie of all time, purely for the fact that it functions perfectly well if you take the 'spoof' part out of it. Scary Movie, take some notes.

Breaking down genre tropes, cliches, and stereotypical characters, there's plenty of scenes that will stand out for their clever manipulation of horror films gone by - but only one that's just... well, a bit bizarre. Werewolves have been classic horror monsters for generations, and it's fair to say that their time is up. It's this moment that just solidified it, really.

Coming when the characters decide to play a game of truth or date, Jules, our sexy blonde lady who might as well have a target painted on her forehead, takes it upon herself to seduce a taxidermy wolf pinned to the wall. If you've ever been scared of a werewolf at any point in your life, watching her tongue punch the wall-mounts mouth is enough to eradicate any sort of fear and replace it with disgust, confusion, and a maybe some weird eroticism. Help?

Funnily enough, a werewolf appears later in the film, but is one of the least notably scary monsters on screen and relies on jump scares, potentially a reminder of the evolution of horror over the years that's forgotten our loveable hairy dog monsters. Good boys gone bad.
