What's your least favorite Screamer Cliche?

You know...stuff that's overplayed, gets old, unoriginal.
I've gotta say the Reagan image that everyone seems to use, or that Jeff the Killer image. Make something homemade, get creative!

I'd say the overuse of well known screamer images as well.

you know the concept of the screamer sucks a tons of ass when they use Regan, Pazuzu, Jeff, Smile Dog as the screamer, i also mention that using the SMG scream makes the video more extra ass.

TicTacToe zombie or any zombies from fatal Frame and The Evil are not yet overused.

8thGeneration I myself don't remember seeing a Smile Dog screamer, at least not yet

TheHUsername Tbh the only thing that's scary about anne.jpg is the sound.

But i'd also say the Regan MacNeil screamer.

LOL guess

regan McNeil yes, that's what he can only be in my opinion..... he's not scary at all, yes anne.jpg Maybe scary, but Jeff the killer himself is not even scary, BUT REGAN McNeil is NOT SCARY AT ALL.

The infamous Jeff image has grown on me. However, it's that eardrum-splitting sound that accompanies his screamers that irritate me. I get that screamers are supposed to be loud, but it shouldn't bypass the limits of the viewer's own speakers or take away their ability to hear. As for my least favorite screamer cliche, it is any screamer that uses a person's real, gruesome death as an excuse to scare people (e.g. El Patron).
