A Hook For Hand

[Sam@Cult Labs]

If I was missing a hand, I'd want someone to pay too.

Which leads me to wonder ... In a world of violent and fantastical movie making, what's your favourite weapon as limb replacement?

Nothing beats a chainsaw strapped to the arm and a fully automatic rifle can come in handy if you're missing a leg. In a universe of off colour movie making, there must be some other classics...right?

I know you mentioned it already, but Cherry from Planet Terror has to be my favourite.

A ridiculous OTT moment(s) in a great fun film.

CANDYMAN, CANDYMAN, CANDYMAN, CANDYMAN...

And I won't risk a fifth thank you very much. Guns and chainsaws are all very well, but nothing beats a vicious butcher's hook in a bloodied stump for sheer visceral nastiness.

You have done very well at thinking of these characters Sam, they are the only ones i can think of as well. My mind is blank.

Not in the purest sense really.

A classic hook right there. 10 points!

More hooked hand bad guy action:

The Cyborg Mean in Judge Dredd - A hook on a cybernetic arm for double kudos
Captain Hook - Clues in the name
In Fox Legend, Moon replaces her hand with a knife after a Fox Demon gnaws it off
In Dick Tracy's Dilemma, arch villian The Claw is another character with a literal title
In Puppet Master, evil puppet Blade has a hook and a knife instead of hands

Are tv characters allowed?

As long as the hooks in place...
