  (#1) Donnie Darko

  • Drew Barrymore, Ashley Tisdale, Jake Gyllenhaal, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Seth Rogen, Patrick Swayze, Jena Malone, Mary McDonnell, Katharine Ross, Noah Wyle, Daveigh Chase, Fran Kranz, Beth Grant, Alex Greenwald, Jerry Trainor, Nancy Juvonen, James Duval, Holmes Osborne, Stuart Stone, David St. James, Philip Hawn, Scotty Leavenworth, Joan Blair, Dee Austin Robertson, Jack Salvatore, Jr., Lee Weaver, Arthur Taxier, Tom Tangen, Patience Cleveland, Gary Lundy, Rachel Winfree, Lisa K. Wyatt, Jack Truman, Kristina Malota, Phyllis Lyons, Jolene Purdy, David Moreland, Tiler Peck, Jazzie Mahannah, Margaret Kontra Palmer, Marina Malota, Conrad Angel Corral, Carly Naples, Sarah Hudson, Mark Hoffman, Alison Jones

  Frank (James Duval) is a key player in Donnie Darko, appearing to protagonist Donnie (Jake Gyllenhaal) as the latter spirals into madness. His grotesque mask, with its exaggerated grin and huge teeth, are off-putting enough, but Frank is a man-sized rabbit heralding the end of the world.

  This makes Frank and his never-ending blank stare all the more terrifying as he pops up with commands for the young Donnie while remaining undetected by all of those around him.

  (#2) The Humanoid Bunny In 'Holidays'

  In the third segment of the horror anthology Holidays, titled "Easter," a young girl fearful of the Easter Bunny emerges from the bedroom for a drink of water, only to encounter the legendary rabbit itself.

  Far from being cuddly, this Easter Bunny is a frightening amalgamation of a crucified Jesus and the traditional holiday mascot. Unfortunately, the rules state that anyone who sees the Easter Bunny is destined to take its place. After being fed an Easter egg, she transforms into another humanoid bunny in order to take over as the immortal creature responsible for leaving chocolates and goodies for children.

  In the segment "It's a Good Life," a young boy named Anthony (Jeremy Licht) has the power to make things happen with his mind, keeping his family and a new guest trapped in his house. During dinner, Anthony demands that Uncle Walt (Kevin McCarthy) perform a favorite magic hat trick.

  After Uncle Walt pulls out a normal rabbit, Anthony forces him to try again, revealing a huge, mutated monstrosity. The mutant bunny jumps from the hat, setting in motion a series of events that leads to Ethel's (Nancy Cartwright) banishment to the television set where cartoon monsters devour her.

  (#4) Watership Down

  • John Hurt, Denholm Elliott, Richard Briers, Harry Andrews, Ralph Richardson, Zero Mostel, John Bennett, Hannah Gordon, Simon Cadell, Michael Graham Cox

  Although animated, this movie (based on the book of the same name) is definitely not for children. The bunnies depicted within are feral creatures often seen with blood and foam dripping from their sharp incisors.

  General Woundwort in particular is a nasty bunny, fighting his way to the top of the rabbit hierarchy by dispatching other leaders with his razor-sharp claws. His blind eye, crazed look, and ragged appearance, coupled with his bad attitude, make Woundwort an evil bunny for the ages.

  (#5) Monty Python and the Holy Grail

  • John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Michael Palin, Graham Chapman, Terry Jones, Carol Cleveland, Neil Innes, Connie Booth, John Young, Sandy Johnson, Julian Doyle, Bee Duffell, Maggie Weston, Rita Davies, Charles Knode, Joni Flynn, Roy Forge Smith, Sally Kinghorn, Zack Matalon, Mary Allen, Margarita Doyle, William Palin, Romilly Squire, Judy Lamb, Alison Walker, Tom Raeburn, Mitsuko Forstater, Tracy Sneddon, Fiona Gordon, Avril Stewart, Elspeth Cameron, Gloria Graham, Yvonne Dick, Sandy Rose, Joyce Pollner, Sally Coombe, Vivienne MacDonald, Daphne Darling, Sylvia Taylor, Anna Lanski, Loraine Ward, Mark Zycon

  Seeking the Holy Grail, King Arthur (Graham Chapman) and his recruited Knights of the Round Table learn that a clue to its location lies within the Cave of Caerbannog, which is guarded by a bunny - "the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on," in the words of Tim the Enchanter (John Cleese).

  The rabbit is small, fluffy, and unassuming, leading the knights to advance on it unprepared. The rabbit lunges at them, ripping and tearing with its small incisors, and dispatching three of the knights. Only the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch is able to stop the beast.

  (#6) Night of the Lepus

  • Janet Leigh, DeForest Kelley, Rory Calhoun, Stuart Whitman, Paul Fix, Chuck Hayward, Henry Wills, Melanie Fullerton, Francesca Jarvis, Chris Morrell

  A bunny infestation on a ranch in the desert leads to mutated, enormous rabbits with a thirst for blood in this 1972 sci-fi/horror flick. A scientist's serum meant to sterilize the bunnies and reduce their population backfires, allowing huge numbers of the floppy-eared, feral beasties to lay waste to a town.

  These bunnies can take down horses and grown men with their sheer numbers and sharp incisors while breeding backups to replace those lost in conflict.
• 

  (#7) Beaster Day: Here Comes Peter Cottonhell

  • Jon Arthur, Kristina Beaudouin, Valerie Bittner, Alison Bodell

  This prehistoric-looking bunny is a mutant that emerges from the woods in search of human flesh.

  It tears into its prey like a Cuisinart, leaving a disgusting trail of bits and pieces in its wake.  
• 

  (#8) Easter Sunday

  • Robert Z'Dar, Jeremy Todd Morehead, Ari Lehman, Jason Delgado

  Deceased crook Douglas Fisher, AKA The Bunny Man Killer, emerges from the grave after some hard-partying teenagers accidentally resurrect him.

  Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves) are trapped in hell, where they must relive past misdeeds. A young Ted once snatched the Easter basket of his younger brother Deacon; now, he must face his guilt and fear in the form of a gigantic, malevolent Easter Bunny.

  After the bunny chastises Ted for his wrongdoing, it later charges down a hallway toward him in a frightening, twitchy lope.
• 

  (#10) Sexy Beast

  • Ben Kingsley, Ian McShane, Ray Winstone, James Fox, Amanda Redman, Cavan Kendall, Terence Plummer, Álvaro Monje, Julianne White, Andy Lucas, Robert Atiko, Eddie O'Connell, Desirée Erasmus, Dionisio Mesa, Ana Maldonado Herreria

  While Sexy Beast is a mostly naturalistic crime film, it features a truly disturbing bunny lurking in the nightmares of protagonist Gary "Gal" Dove (Ray Winstone). The sinister, sidearm-wielding rabbit appears in Gal's dreams after he goes hunting for rabbits.

  This creepy bunny may represent Gal's crooked past, or perhaps it's a manifestation of Don Logan (Ben Kingsley), a vicious recruiter who attempts to tempt Gal back to the underworld for one last job.
• 

  (#11) The White Rabbit In 'Alice' (1988)

  In a live-action version of the classic Alice in Wonderland story, Alice (Kristýna Kohoutová) finds herself following a White Rabbit that looks like a taxidermied bunny.

  Not only is this White Rabbit creepy as heck, he works as an executioner for the Queen of Hearts. Throughout the adventure, the White Rabbit chops off the heads of playing-card soldiers, traps Alice in milk inside a shell casing, and menaces Alice with scissors. 
• 

  (#12) Easter Bunny, Kill! Kill!

  • Trent Haaga, Ricardo Gray, Timothy Muskatell, Max Haaga, David Z. Stamp, Wolf Dangler, Amy Szychowski, Marina Blumenthal, Jose I. Lopez

  A bad dude named Remington (Timothy Muskatell) uses a bunny mask while looting a convenience store and dispatching its clerk, before returning home to his girlfriend Mindy (Charlotte Marie) and her son, whom he habitually mistreats.

  The mask is then picked up by someone else who wears it while going on a mysterious and vicious spree.
• 

  (#13) Bunny the Killer Thing

  • Hiski Hämäläinen, Enni Ojutkangas, Veera W. Vilo, Jari Manninen

  The antagonist of this Finnish production is a man-sized bunny with an exposed and engorged member, and he accosts anyone who resembles a woman in this violent (and exceptionally unpleasant) movie.

  Covered in matted fur and able to only scream a single coarse word, this rabbit is as gross as he is dangerous. 
• 

  (#14) The Bunny-Suited Slayer In 'Belenggu'

  Also known as Shackled, Belenggu is an offbeat Indonesian horror film that follows Elang (Abimana Aryasatya), a man who dreams of a strange woman riding in a car with cadavers and a bunny-suit-wearing stalker.

  Throughout the film, the bunny claims many lives, and Elang appears powerless to stop it.
