To those of you familiar with animation, or even art in general, you may have run across the term "uncanny valley" at some point in time. When a piece of art attempts to reflect on the human condition, but lacks a certain kind of emotion or feeling, making it look like the character in question is slightly...off. Not enough to destroy their presence outright, but enough to make staring at them too long uncomfortable. In most mediums, especially when dealing with technology like CGI, this is a trait that is attempted to be avoided at all costs, however there is one particular genre that cultivates the uncanny valley and incorporates it into their design quite often, horror. Take our two combatants today. On one hand, you have flimsy humanoid figure that appears suddenly and casts curses on those who would disturb his tomb and steal a particular slab. On the other hand, you have a looming figure of a humanoid deer skeleton, wearing a cloak filled with the screaming faces of the souls it has consumed previously and softly beckons those he encounters to join them. But which of these purposefully lifeless figures shall win the day in the end? Today, we find out.
In the blue corner, we have King Ramses from Courage the Cowardly Dog, and in the red corner, we have Specimen 8 from Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion.
