Just because she has a smaller kill count, that does not make M3GAN less terrifying. When it was protecting its cubs, the animal attacked Syd White and disemboweled him before he had a chance to shoot.
While on cocaine, the bear seems to be able to achieve greater speed and agility than normal, making it a much greater threat to even those experienced with national park wildlife, like Ranger Liz. Of the 11 deaths in Cocaine Bear, the bear is responsible for almost all of them, whether by directly mauling the two hikers from the beginning of the film, or killing one EMT while another goes sailing through the windshield. Not only that, but she remembers who wronged her, and will stop at nothing to seek her revenge, even years later. By contrast, attempts to reprogram M3GAN fail in her movie, implying that she will always be a killer robot, no matter what humans try to do. All the ways that Cocaine Bear embodies a slasher villain are completely dependent on how much white powder it has access to. Cocaine Bear is given a few moments of stealth - which seem highly improbable for a rampaging animal its size - but for the most part, attacks head-on in broad daylight.Īside from not being very stealthy, the bear goes back to being a bear after the drugs wear off, whereas M3GAN will always be an iconic horror villain. From Ghostface to Freddy Krueger, the most common trait these slasher villains share besides a high kill count is moving from the shadows to attack out of nowhere. Both M3GAN and Cocaine Bear possess similar slasher villain tropes, such as dogmatically stalking their victims and attacking them in bloodthirsty ways, but only one of them has the added benefit of stealth.
