As someone who grew up on 80s horror, I've always enjoyed some good practical creature effects. This is just based on looks not character. Let's try to keep cgi to a minimum. Here's some of my favorites.


Angel of Death from Hellboy 2



Xenomorph Queen from Aliens



Medusa from Clash of the Titans



girl cenobite from Hellraiser

I was fascinated by Darkness in the movie legend. Not bad for an80’s makeup job.

That Medusa scene in Clash is epic.

I just watched that movie 2 nights ago and it still kicks arse.

And obviously the GOAT

The thing had some pretty spectacular creature designs for the time period.

That might be it. H.R. Giger's drawings really fascinated me as a youngster.

I'd like to visit his museum and bar in Switzerland sometime: LINK

The transformation FX from "An American Werewolf in London" was pretty damned good, and the werewolf itself was a decent take.

Since the Predator was already posted I'll go ahead and say LOTR had some great looking creatures:
