At this point making topic like this isn't really gonna get anyone's spirits up since he is probably the most heated character right now. I have to be honest though as much as I love horror movies and all it's icons just seeing Leatherface randomly coming out to gut Ermac just felt....ugh. Not that I hate him or anything but for me it was like "Really out of all the horror icons (As if you really needed another but nonetheless) you pick Leatherface?".

However I would be lying to myself if I said I wasn't interested in asking the MKO community this question so here we go.

Let's say Leatherface was not revealed in KP2 but another horror movie icon had to take his place. Who would you pick for that horror icon to be?

Or you can also look at the question this way, Which horror icon would have probably have you less pissed?

Ash fuckin' Williams.

He does the chainsaw thing better than Leatherface, has more personality than Leatherface, fits the MK universe better than Leatherface, has more variation potential than Leatherface, and he's more relevant than Leatherface.

I guess what I'm trying to say is he's a better choice in every possible way than Leatherface.

Ashley Williams. I would actually buy him over Nightwolf, Bo, or any of my other favorite MK characters. HIs gameplay would be interesting and varied. His personality would fit amazingly. He has a huge cult following and relevance with his new show. Bruce/Rami would probably be totally down for it. His explaining for being there writes itself: Necronomicon sent him there and he is trying to get back home.

If you want more reasons:

-Chainsaw hand
-Interactions with Johnny
-Victory scene mimicking the ending to Evil Dead 1
-One liners everywhere
-Boomstick fatality
-Hitting on Cassie/Sonya/Milleena/Kitana/Jackie/Tayna
-Necromomicon summonings
-Hail to the King, Baby

Well can't say I'm surprised at this as an answer. I like Horror movies but even I knew 4 guest is just ridiculous. Leatherface as much as I would love to see him in a fighting game or f it a MK game at this point it's too late and adding more would have just felt over saturated and this is exactly what I did feel but oh well.

I guess I should chime in mine. I thin Pinhead would have made an interesting horror icon to make a KP. He has a very distinct look to him that separates him from the other horror icons and looks like he could exist in the MK world. His dialogue would also be interesting as well with certain characters(Mainly Raiden,Quan chi & Shinnok). More on this later.

All of them, so NRS can get it out of their system and go back to MK characters with maybe MAYBE a guest from another fighting franchise from time to time.

I'm a huge MK and horror nut, so I'm quite happy with Leatherface. However, there are a few I would've chosen over him. Such as:

Ash (with Evil Ash variation)
Pumpkinhead (to add another creature character)
The Creeper (Jeepers Creepers, AWESOME monster)
Would LOVE Pinhead, but he just doesn't fit
Freddy again, but the Robert Englund version
Tall Man (Phantasm)

Other movie characters in general I'd kill to see:
Mad Max
Jigsaw (bear trap headgear fatality. Awesome.)
Kurgan (Highlander)
The Bride (Kill Bill)
Ellen Ripley (most BADASS heroine of all time)

And many more that I don't feel like listing haha. It's a wish and a dream of course, but I'm happy with everything NRS is doing. Been an MK fan since I was 8 when the original hit arcades, my grandmother would take me to the local comic shop with a sack of quarters so I could play like crazy. I grew up with the series, and I'm 31 now.

Doesn't matter to me how many haters there are, MK will always have a place in my heart and I'm ecstatic over ANY guests we get. It's thw senseless fun, nostalgia and my inner fanboy that let me see past the bullshit and just enjoy every minute of it :)
