From which movies are the killers from?

[Redberet]

Hey there!
I am trying to find all the movies that the killers from this game are in, and watch them.
So far I saw the Texas Chainsaw, since Leatherface is similar to Hillbilly, and I'll watch Halloween next, because of Michael Myers.
Anyone knows from which movie the other killers are from? (I know that some of them might not be in movies)

Doctor , Hag , Wraith and Huntress aren't based from any movies . Doctor is based from a REAL person that did shock therapy to "cure" the " internet addiction "

I thought the huntress was to promote some upcoming movie or something.

Ed is a real person too.

Ed created a flesh ... blanket or suit - which he crawled into.

Yes but not from the woman he killed and beheaded. He robbed graves to make most of the things he "crafted" around his home.

Ohhh, actually yeah, I'm pretty sure this is correct. I misunderstood your first comment.
When he was caught, her body was still being dismembered so he never actually made anything from her, only from people he dug up. You're right

Can anyone explain why people think the Nurse is similar to Silent Hill Nurses? Other than the fact that they're both nurses in scary games, they don't really have anything in common. Lore is totally different and they don't even look similar outside of the covered face.

I don't think she is. She's probably based off of some ghost character but who knows which one.

the nurse is close to a silent hill monster

Same opinion,even in the movie they are called blinks...

Where'd you hear that? I haven't seen anything similar in trailers or anything yet

Yeah but Hillbilly is based from Leatherface and Leatherface is based from Ed .

Yeah he was going to as her head was in a sack and her heart was in a bag in front of his stove. He obviously was planning to eat the heart.

Though I should mention Luca was right to an extent. I forgot he also killed another woman prior to that. I believe his only two victims were Bernice and Mary. He did use Mary's face to make a mask.

No idea maybe I'm thinking of something completely different. Disregard my comment on that.

It's been awhile since I read about him. I know he made various parts of a woman suit, though I don't recall if it was from several bodies or from one.

Lots of bodies, mostly ones he dug up from the cemetery. Check out his wiki if you're interested. It's pretty gnarly

Imma pull ♥♥♥♥♥ outta da wiki
Trapper- The Trapper might be based on Jason Voorhees, as both characters are large and muscular men, both wear a mask, both wield a simple yet crude bladed weapon, and both are fiercely loyal to one of their parents (Jason with his mother, Evan with his father). Also, Jason has been known to use bear traps from time to time, while the Trapper uses them as a staple of his attack style.
Wraith- Possibly inspired by Grim Reaper tropes as he carries a scythe, causes a bell to toll, and can hide himself from humans
Hillbilly- Possibly based off Leatherface, with both having similarly disfigured faces and wielding hammers and chainsaws. The Hillbilly may also be based on Victor Crowley from the movie Hatchet as they were both born with deformities and were hidden by a parent however Victor's father actually cared for him whereas The Hillbilly's parents did not.
Nurse- The Nurse could likely be inspired by the Nurse creatures seen in the game Silent Hill.
Huntress- The Huntress' Hare mask might be inspired from similar masks worn by the Spider Splicers in games of the BioShock Franchise.
Shape- Michael Myers
Hag- The Hag seems to be heavily based on the Wendigo, an Algonquian myth that says those who commit cannibalism will become possessed by spirits, deformed and eventually turn insane. This is suggested by The Hag's appearance, Memento Mori, backstory, and a few Hag-related items in the game which talk about cannibalism.
Doctor- The Doctor's backstory may be a reference to MK ULTRA, a CIA research project that officially ran from 1951 to 1973 and experimented with unethical methods of interrogation and mind control.

Trapper = Friday the thirteenth (Trapper is an expy of Jason Voorhees) or "The Hills Run Red" (The killer resembles him to a degree, though his backstory resembles the hillbilly more or less).
Wraith = "Predator"
Hillbilly = "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" or alternatively "Hatchet."
Nurse = Silent Hill
Shape = Halloween (1978)
Hag = Pumpkinhead (1988) or Blair Witch (1990). Pumpkinhead's motives are closer to the hag, as well as appearance.
Doctor = "House on Haunted Hill" (1999) or perhaps "Dr. Giggles" (1992) neither purely present the Doctor's aura, but there are elements. I'de go with House on Haunted Hill.
Huntress = Mama, The movie villain bears absolutely zero likeness to teh Huntress, though her love-hungry personality is exemplified.

[Rigbeta]

Also, guys, the asker is wanting to watch movies that have killers similar in appearance/personality to the DBD killers. I'm sure they are fully aware that the DBD killers aren't in any current movies with the exception of The Shape and any "Expy" shenanigans.
