It took on the Kraken with indifference as it oozed its way into the ocean and, apparently, filled the entirety of it with its pink, blobby mass. Now the Blob goes up against cinema&#8217;s most recognizable monster in Godzilla. However, this tournament isn&#8217;t afraid to throw out classic monsters at the whim of the people.

Does Godzilla have what it takes to counteract the Blob&#8217;s ever-expanding quest for the championship?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Secret Weapon:<\/span> Godzilla&#8217;s sheer popularity should really help him in this match.

Now here&#8217;s a weird pairing. Chucky, cinema&#8217;s most evil demonically possessed doll, faces down cinema&#8217;s angriest group of fowls. Does Chucky have the fortitude and cunning to take out a swarming flock of deranged birds? Would they even attack him? Let&#8217;s say for sake of argument that they do. Will his hard plastic body hold up to the barrage of pecks?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.highdefdigest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/chucky-thumb-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-47729\" src=\"https:\/\/www.highdefdigest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/chucky-thumb-3.jpg\" title=\"Chucky\" width=\"107\" height=\"107\"\/><\/a><strong>Chucky<\/strong> \u2013 He&#8217;s evil, there&#8217;s no doubting that. He&#8217;s already slaughtered a killer tire and a wicked Leprechaun. Now he has his sights set on a flock of Hitchcock&#8217;s killer birds.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Secret Weapon:<\/span> Chucky has always shown magnificent smarts for a children&#8217;s play thing. His diabolical plans usually end up with someone lying in a pool of blood. Is it such a stretch to believe that he&#8217;d be able to think of something that could kill a bunch of birds?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.highdefdigest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/killer-birds-thumb-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-47731\" src=\"https:\/\/www.highdefdigest.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/killer-birds-thumb-1.jpg\" title=\"Killer Birds\" width=\"107\" height=\"107\"\/><\/a><strong>Killer Birds<\/strong> \u2013 They&#8217;ve had sort of an easy road to the Slimy Sixteen. The birds first faced off against the Ghoulies, who didn&#8217;t provide much of a challenge. Then they set to ravenously tearing apart a few killer tomatoes. Can they keep the winning streak alive by finding a way to kill a beloved, yet malevolent doll?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Secret Weapon:<\/span> Aerial attacks will come in handy here. Agility really isn&#8217;t Chucky&#8217;s strong suit.
