The Zuni FetishDoll

The Zuni fetish doll from the 1975 ABC Movie of The Week, "Trilogy of Terror."

Although not my particular brand of fetish doll ; ) Dan Curtis' "Trilogy of Terror" ended with one of the most memorial monsters in tv history. Adapted for the screen by Richard Matheson "Amelia" was based on his short story "Prey," and starred Karen Black as a woman who is attacked by a birthday present she bought her boyfriend, a present which she inadvertantly brought to life.

Check out how it all ends, by watching this clip from YouTube.

Curtis would go on to reuse the Zuni Fetish Doll in 1996, in the sequel "Trilogy of Terror II."

Toymaker Majestic Studios produced a very cool reproduction of the Zuni doll, which as been used to varying effects in some fan made films.

Check a few of them out:

"Trilogy of Christmas"
"He Who Kills"

There are also several short CGI animations being made:

Zuni with Knife
Zuni Doll Test

Pennywise

"They ALL float down here. When your down here with us, you'll float too! "

Pennywise as portrayed by Tim Curry in 1990's "It."

A couple of interesting pieces of trivia:
According to the commentary on the DVD, Tim Curry's Pennywise was so unnerving that the cast and crew completely avoided him while on the set.

Richie's worst fear is a werewolf in this movie. Seth Green, who plays young Richie, would go on to play a werewolf in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Radio Times magazine in 2004 held a survey for the scariest programme aired on television, in which It came first. The X-Files came second. Others on the top ten list included Twin Peaks, Ghostwatch and Tales of the Unexpected. The Sci Fi channel annouced a 4 hour remake of the film which will appear in the year 2007 or 2008.
