What Horror characters do u feel are not talked about enough but deserve to be as iconic as Freddy, Leatherface, Pinhead, Jason, Myers, Frankensteins Monster, Dracula etc and why?

Victor Crowley, Leslie Vernon, Tall Man (Phantasm)

Great Icons and unique too.

I definitely agree about the "Tall Man" from Phantasm, absolutely creepy. In some ways he is an icon of horror, almost any fan of the genres knows him. That said he doesn't have the wide spread appeal of the others named.

Severin from Near Dark is my pick - I love the character, the perfect balance of wit and viciousness.

Buddy Bacon from "Slaughterhouse"

He's a killer from a slaughterhouse named Bacon... he also carries a big ass cleaver.
