If there was ever a theme for you, Freddy, Jason, and other horror legends go on a slaughter spree until only one remains. This is the Death Lab of Death Labs, y'all. So, to nominate, you type in... You type in exclamation point, N-O-M, space, and the character you want to nominate. This is whatever you can imagine you are bringing to a fight. And who do you want to represent you? Who's your horror-themed avatar who will destroy all other horror-based characters? Yes. very interesting image for the thing feel like ai couldn't decide if it was if if it's the thing or if it's the hulk i feel like pennywise has a has a chance pennywise is essentially a boggart that's not bad oh and a deadite really it has no idea what a deadite is all right y'all we've got we've got three different horror characters who do you want to actually be in the battle you can type in exclamation point one for the thing exclamation point two for pennywise or exclamation point three for the deadite one all right i I don think you got it Kyle You forgot the exclamation point on those last two Exactly. Deadites are fodder. It's like they're not even the real thing. Ready? Clowning around in the graveyard, the deadite showdown. um all right what do we got here we've got pennywise versus a deadite once again a single deadite wicked city uh the deadite has a 12 strength a 14 dexterity a 10 constitution a six intelligence and eight wisdom and a five charisma they are tiny and they are silly Pennywise on the other hand oh my god has a 10 strength a 14 dexterity a 12 constitution an 18 intelligence a 16 wisdom and a 20 charisma that is superhuman I can't believe that the deadite has even a 45% chance yeah monkey I'm in the same boat Pennywise Pennywise has this it's a boggart versus like an evil boggart versus is like the little tiny laughing people. There's nothing. Iris says, Pennywise will be beaten if the deadite has no fear. That's a really good point. If the demon doesn't have fear, maybe that's where the 45% comes in. So to catch everyone up we got Death Lab Death Lab is back up and running And we got Pennywise on my left and a single Deadite on my right I guess it'd be my left. It's reversed. On your left and your right. My left and my right would be reversed. yeah anyway as we were we were going into this initially we were thinking that pennywise had this one in the bag but the deadites are demons and they may not technically be afraid although they're very afraid of getting smashed by bruce campbell are you guys ready to see dpf versus wicked city gaming and pennywise versus versus the deadite in the shadowy depths of an abandoned amusement park pennywise the dancing clown cackled maniacally as he lunged at the dead eye his razor sharp teeth glistening with malice that is definitely a clown menacingly uh although i don't see the dead eye anywhere but that is definitely Pennywise in a coat. Like, it looks cold outside, so it makes sense that Pennywise would be wearing a coat, right? Because it's cold. I don't know where it sourced that video from, but somebody was obviously in some sort of a trench coat or something like that. This is great. Let's see what happens in round two. With a swift and furious swing of its gnarled arm, the dead dyke retaliated. Holy shit Oh my god I I using my non F drop for the night That is f***ing up. Whoa. Okay. Okay. If that's what this AI thinks the deadite is, I'm excited to see what happens next. But as the deadite reveled in its moment of triumph, Pennywise's eyes glowed with a sinister light, and in a final desperate strike, he unleashed a blast of supernatural terror, consuming the deadite in a whirlwind of fear and leaving only silence in his wake. Conjoined deadites. I'm sorry, but that is AI's unleashed a blast of supernatural terror. That was actually really cool. Oh, come on, Wicked City. This is definitely messed up. Oh, lame, maybe that Pennywise... I mean, was there any doubt that Pennywise was going to win? Yes, exactly, Manu. Interesting. Visuals are awesome. Supernatural fear, right? I want to point out, Wicked City, That's a win. When it comes to horror, I would have expected you to bring your A game, or in this case, your B movie game. That didn't happen, and instead I won with Pennywise. I'm obviously better. _(Acquisition: youtube_groq_whisper, Enrichment: v3)_ --- *Exported from Journalist Tool on 2026-04-13 | Item ID: 6005d6bc-a6de-4533-bfc1-2ba9a1dbe3d4*
