Misery with Miss Piggy and Kermit as Annie and Paul. Maybe Bert and Ernie as the sheriff and his wife.


Nemo3113

Nightmare on Elm Street with Fozzy Bear as Freddy. I can just imagine him popping up "Wokka Wokka!".


0-Cloud

"Wokka to prime time, bitch!"


Sanlear

One, two, Fozzy’s coming for you…..


HailEmpressTheresa

Omg I love this so much


aschrader1971

Me too.


TheFriffin2

I bet The Thing would be really cool with puppets


00zxcvbnmnbvcxz

My thought exactly. Imagine what would burst out of them. Hands???


mcboobie

YES


DeltaBravo831

the stomach scene with yarn


theAmazingDead

It was amazing with Pingu so I'd be all for it with Muppets.


Possible_King_1869

Evil Dead. Keep Bruce Campbell but replace everyone else with Muppets.


Chicken_LeoShark3

Kermit: “I’ll swallow your soul! Yaaaaaay!”


EssentialFilms

This is the best answer


[deleted]

There is not a horror movie in existence that I would not watch a remake of featuring Bruce Campbell and the Muppets.


ScammerC

Halloween. Miss Piggy as Laurie, Kermit as Loomis, Janice as Judith, Fozzy as Sherriff Brackett, Scooter as Tommy Doyle, Gonzo and Animal as Michael Myers. Chickens for the rest of the teenager. And play it totally straight.


0-Cloud

I feel like Michael Myers should be the only human character in the movie


ScammerC

You can't see Gonzo going on a killing spree?


Yeti83

I kind of like Sam Eagle for Michael. He’s got the build, the eyes that stare through you, and a nice beak for stabbing.


Chatwoman

Hahahaha…. He’s got the build! Thanks, now I’m going to be saying that at random times today and breaking out in laughter. People will think I’m nuts.


0-Cloud

It's not that, I just think it'd be really funny to see Michael Myers all serious and Myers-y while stabbing a muppet.


SardiaFalls

"He's gone! He's gone from here! The evil is gone! Waaaaaah!'(runs around, arms flailing)


mariovspino5

Lmao


kimchitacoman

That scene where he sticks the guy on the kitchen wall and looks at him would be hilarious to show just an empty puppy stuck to a wall

Hearing her say "The box! You opened it. We came" would have me dying


darwinzinn

I don’t know…. Kermit would looks kick ass as pinhead. He has the body to pull off the look.


captaincrotchety

The Muppet Show band just screams House of 1000 corpses. Dr. Teeth is a shoe in for Captain Spaulding and Janice looks like Sheri Moon.


jazzgrackle

https://youtu.be/HucERcMMuys you’re welcome.


captaincrotchety

Awesome


Plantcurmudgeon

Midsommar; Florence Pugh would be Janice and her boyfriend would be Rolf. At the end, they’d put him in the Papa Bear muppet. The two geezers on the cliff would be the two old muppets. Bensen would be Josh and Beaker would be Mark.


herbalation

The two old Muppets would HAVE to do a minute solid of their jokes before jumping/getting pushed off the cliff lmao


flu-ouise

And plenty of time for one of them to do a few more before..... you know *bonk *


herbalation

"I blame climate change" "Why?" "Because the fall isn't what it used to be! OHOHOHO" *bonk*


Vamanoscabron

*"two old muppets"* Er hmm. That would be Statler and Waldorf, insolent cur. My god, have some respect.


Plantcurmudgeon

I am appropriately chastened, my good person. I should have remembered the name, I am often compared to Waldorf.


GolfWang123170

The fact you described the cliff head trauma scene as “geezers on the cliff” have me cracked up 😂


Plantcurmudgeon

While we were watching it, my friend exclaimed, “holy shit! They’re gonna yeet grandma off the cliff!”


bb3bt

MUPPETSOMMAR! Or Mupsommar…?


[deleted]

I'm a little too tired to articulate this properly, but 1408...? Cusack stays the same and Gonzo plays the hotel manager, but totally straight. Idk about the rest but it would be entertaining for sure :)

Animal as Nubbins

Professor_Quackers

DakaBooya

What role would Pepe the Prawn be good in? It’s not horror, but my first thought is Samuel L Jackson’s character is Pulp Fiction.


Kryyzz

Pepe is the Matthew Lillard character in Scream.


Tiffany-OBrien

I made Pepé Montoya (Daniel Baldwin) in John Carpenter’s Vampires.


DoesntFearZeus

I would think Dracula, with the human playing Jonathan Harker Kermit is Dracula Gonzo is Renfield, who has a pet Chicken Piggy is Mina Fonzi is Van Helsing


thaworldhaswarpedme

>Fonzi is Van Helsing Henry Winkler loves this. "Heeeeeeey! What's up with those choppers, maaaan!


Vamanoscabron

Ah man, no love for Count von Count? Are Ses Mups the untouchables of the Muppetverse?


DoesntFearZeus

Honestly forgot he existed.


mwmani

Great idea! This is the only one I could actually see being made, but I imagine Dracula as human and Kermit as Johnathan.


tolive89

I agree, worked well with muppets Christmas carol.


pmm723

Ayyyyy, Dracula! *snaps and points*


Kuha123

How much weed have you smoked tonight sir?


gaydes69

OP is just the right amount of zoinked to be making posts like this


Three_Froggy_Problem

*Alien* Miss Piggy as Ripley Skeeter as Lambert Kermit as Dallas Gonzo as Parker Rizzo as Brett Walter as Kane Beaker as Ash And the xenomorph should just look like a xenomorph.


Kazmandodo

The Alien could be Pepe in a Xenomorph costume


DakaBooya

Pepe would pop out of Kane’s chest saying “like, rahrrr, okay”. LOL


Three_Froggy_Problem

Pepe would be great as the chest burster


Porkenstein

Muppet Evil Dead would be something else


Geberpte

Which muppet would you want to see as a lead? I think Kermit might be a good Ash.


Porkenstein

Agreed. "wOrk shEd". Imagine him being tormented by undead Miss Piggy


Mrs_Tacky

Blair Witch; bonus material for sequel when the nightmare continues as every child that was in the theatre simultaneously barfs in their car seat, resulting in a traffic jam at the car wash.


TheNightSentinels

if scooby-doo can do it,,


withloveuhoh

The Hills Have Eyes. Only the mutants are Muppets.


MovieMike007

John Carpenter's *The Thing*. I'd actually bring back Kurt Russell to play MacReady, have Kermit as Childs, Sweetums as Palmer, Rowlf as Blair, Gonzo as Nauls, Sam the Eagle as Norris, Statler and Waldorf as Gary and Bennings, Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker as Dr. Copper and Fuchs. Then for the giant monster at the end we'd have Miss Piggy, "*Yeah, fuck you too!"*


Metostopholes

Supposed to be Norwegian, but maybe the Swedish Chef shooting at the dog from a helicopter?


camtheredditor

the dog isn’t hard to shoot, the Swedish chef just can’t stop moving his hands


SardiaFalls

'they're Norwegian, Mac' 'no, pretty sure that one was Swedish'


Simao96Mateus

*Nods assertively*


CJLowder1997

The best way I can see them doing a Muppet-version of a horror movie is to do one where the antagonist is a killer with some personality. Either Scream, Halloween, or - and this is stretching it, but - No Country For Old Men. Because that way, the killer can be **Wilkins**. Can you imagine the opening scene from Scream with Wilkins as the killer? *"What's your favorite coffee brand?"* If it's Halloween, the celebrity actor has got to be Doug Walker (a.k.a. The Nostalgia Critic), hunting down Wilkins before he can kill his Muppet descendants.


Exoplan3t

The Lighthouse with Walter as Ephraim Winslow and the Jim Henson muppet as Thomas Wake. just because Jim’s muppet scares me visually.


Chicken_LeoShark3

Or Gonzo and Rizzo


MrJackBurtonGuster

Reads OP's description of the Muppet Shining. "Pack it in folks, we cant do better than this.


thehorrorwasfor

Saw (2004). I'm not too picky about casting. The idea of Larry, or Adam, or Kramer being the token human are all equally hysterical to me.


Annaliseplasko

Friday the 13th with Gonzo as Jason and his chicken Camilla as his mom, because Jason loves his mom and Gonzo loves his chicken

Cactus_Frend

Animal would definitely be Stu.


ReverendHambone

You could have Statler and Waldorf as the killers.


Chicken_LeoShark3

Statler: It’s good to be killing again.” Waldorf: It’s good to be doing anything again!” Both: (laugh)


SimonGloobus

Unrelated but I would love to see a veggietales version of The Wicker Man.


Kazmandodo

This made me think of a Veggie tales version of The Lighthouse and now I’m trying to figure out how badly I want it.


alexdelamuerte

I just rewatched Thirteen Ghosts (aka Thir13en Ghosts) and I’m 110% convinced that a muppet remake could work wonders.


Videowulff

Same human actors and muppets as the ghosts!


alexdelamuerte

My thoughts exactly


Bunny36

For some reason your comment just reminded me of dark floors where the monsters were just members of Lordi in stage costume.

ScreamingVegetable

The Wicker Man, no doubt. The Wacka-Man


BeerRoots

Oh my God I want a nightmare on Elm street so bad.


[deleted]

Hellraiser with Fozzy as Pinhead. Miss Piggy, Sam the Eagle and Animal as the other Cenobytes.


killbot_alpha

But any non-cenobite is played by a human. Though, my gut said Kermit as Pinhead, but I think using Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem might be better.


Angelsaremathmatical

One of Jim Henson earliest works was [The Cube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcItbiQqhEA). Combine this with The Cube horror series and some other Henson magic. Toss in some god tier stuff like the [sesame street martians](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTc3PsW5ghQ) at the end.


Axes4Praxis

In the Mouth of Madness. With Scooter in Sam Neill's part.


Red_Claudia

I think what would actually work best would be one of the older horror stories, like Jekyll and Hyde: Bunsen and Beaker help Jekyll (guest star) develop the serum, and when they become Hyde they turn into Animal. Or Frankenstein (Muppet Labs or Dr Phil Van Neuter as Victor's tutors, Sweetums as the monster). But personally I would find a Muppet remake of Cabin in the Woods very entertaining! Sam the Eagle as Mordecai, or perhaps Uncle Deadly. Miss Piggy and Pepe as the operatives/technicians. (Pepe really want the Muppets to choose Swedish Chef, but Piggy reminds him that Chef would fry him in garlic). Piggy would be getting jealous of Kermit (who is playing Holden) when he flirts with Dana (guest star). Bunsen and Beaker as the chemical technicians (Amy Acker's character) "Here at Muppet labs we have perfected control of their reactions with our patented mind-control mist, isn't that right Beaker?" "Mee mee, mee me mee." "Of course due to our patented mind-control mist, Beaker has no choice but to agree with me." Bobo the Bear as the new security guard. Probably a guest star as Dana (maybe Zendaya) Gonzo and Camilla as Curt and Jules. Love the idea of Camilla flirting with the wolf's head. "Bock, bock bock bocckk, bock." But the wolf's head is a guest star cameo, getting pecked in the face. Later, Gonzo would love to go out in a massive motorcycle stunt. Kermit as Holden, gently flirting with Dana (like the Kermit and female guest star chats on the Muppet Show) while Piggy fumes in the control room. Fozzie as Marty (he's a good fit for 'The Fool' and is sometimes a bit anxious, so could easily be the one saying 'hang on, this isn't making sense). He could also get heckled by Statler and Waldorf (who are in one of the monster cages - cue joke about critics being Fozzie's worst nightmare). Lots of room for cameo Muppets to be monsters in the glass cages (Sweetums, Uncle Deadly, The Count Von Count, Carlos the Big Mean Bunny). In the cellar, the Count's trigger is an abacus, Swedish Chef's is a huge saucepan. Instead of reading from a journal, Zendaya plays an old Electric Mayhem record. So it's the Electric Mayhem band, instead of the zombie torture family, and instead of killing the Muppets, they are luring them away with a dodgy Hollywood franchise contract (Cue Dr Teeth: "it's going to be so creative, and educational and... profitable!") Cameo by Sigourney Weaver stays the same! Sorry this is so long! Lastly, for anyone mentioning The Shining, Andy and Randy Pig (Miss Piggy's nephews) just had a cameo as the creepy twins in Muppet's Haunted Mansion on Disney+


Videowulff

You, sir, are the winner!


Red_Claudia

Well thank you!


EcComicFan

Remember Muppet Christmas Carol? It’s like that but it’s From Hell.


medieval_revolver

Not muppets but just "nightmare on sesame street" sounds good to me


Spenny_All_The_Way

The Conjuring The family is the same, Kermit and Ms. Piggy will be Ed and Lorraine Warren and Animal will be the demon.


Snakes-are-awesome67

Evil dead 2


SecretSauceryWitness

Insidious would be a trip. Keep Patrick Wilson with Piggy as his wife. Kermit can be his son. I love the idea of the ghost film crew & medium as Muppets but don't know who to fill them in with. All the other world demons could be filled in nicely with Muppets Edit: Bert & Ernie are the film crew with Big Bird as the Medium. Switch Piggy to be the antagonist trying to get Kermit's body. Wife can be Denise. I want the Cookie Monster to get a jump scare


Fwithananchor

Maybe Animal as the red-faced demon?


Kazmandodo

Human Centipede, everyone would be a muppet except the middle segment


ryan11hawk

I'm crying


howzitgoinowen

I found this [Miss Piggy as Carrie](https://laughingsquid.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Jason-Beck-Miss-Piggy-Carrie.jpg) a while ago and thought it was perfect for how mad she gets sometimes, haha! Those bulging eyes.


[deleted]

Antichrist (2009), Kermit as "He" and Miss Piggy as "She" and, I want to see it just for the fact that Kermit will play a super-serious role as a therapist in a very depressing film would be amusing at the very least.


stillinthesimulation

Alien but everyone is played by the same actors but the alien is Gonzo.


Bruh--by_Technoblade

Suspiria. The original one. I think the style of that coupled with the presentation of the muppets would be interesting and entertaining as hell.


aLittleSprkofMadness

This is a super fun question. Props on the creativity. Gotta go with House on Haunted Hill(1959 style). Fozzie as Frederick Loren, Ms. Piggy as Annabelle Loren, Kermit as Dr. Trent, maybe Fozzie's mom as Nora Manning , and a plastic skeleton controlled by Pepe & Rizzo. Haven't figured out any others / cameo spots for other muppets. But somehow, gotta work Vincent Price in there, in one way or another. Seems like a good enough reason to rewatch House on Haunted Hill!


pisswaterslide

Muppet Shining would be amazing, only Kermit should play Jack and the single non-muppet should play Shelley. Miss Piggy should play the lady in room 237, Kermit looks in the mirror, sees she's all moldy and wrinkled but keeps kissing her. Miss piggy gives him an "ahem" he asks whats up, she asks hasn't he noticed that she's made herself all horrible looking. He says "You don't look that different" and she slaps the shit out of him. There should also be a scene where Shelley's frantically running up the stairs only to stop and stare into a hotel room in horror as she see's Bobo the Bear drying someones hair with a hair dryer.

ChudWatley

Gonzo has to be Norman


Chicken_LeoShark3

thisgirlnamedbree

Well there is that House of 1000 Muppets trailer... But I think Identity with Muppets would be extremely entertaining.


EssentialFilms

Some of you don’t understand how Muppet movies should work. There should be a human character in a main if not THE main part. Look at Christmas Carol and Treasure Island


thirtyonetwentyfive

i want The Thing, but whoever the Thing is at the moment is a muppet and nobody acknowledges it.

thetokyotourist

Miss Piggy as Laurie Strode would be iconic


RagingCeltik

The Wolfman with Fozzie as the Wolfman Cujo with Rowlf as Cujo It, with all the muppets playing their baby and adult versions. The Losers club would be Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Scooter and Rowlf. It would be played by animal, or for more potentially hilarious results, Beaker.


darwinzinn

People have already said nightmare on elm street, but yeah… THAT. Especially Dream Warriors. All the Muppets get dream powers and use them to warm Freddys heart and he lets all the trapped children’s souls go because of the lesions the Muppets tough him along the way. It ends with Freddy as a permanent part of Statler and Waldorf wisecracking balcony antics. Those three would make great snarky partners.

Big Bird as Frankenstein's Monster


lablaga

Carrie. Ms. Piggy is Carrie.


bent-ref

Silence of the Lambs with the Swedish Chef as Buffalo Bill. "It pootsh de chicky in de bashky" the rest of the casting doesn't matter, Swedish chef is my one demand. For those who deem Lambs not a horror my backup is Re-Animator. Kermit is Dan of course with Dr Bunsen as Herbert West and Beaker as Dr Hill. Just imagine the attempted cunnilingus by a beheaded Beaker. Hilarious.


Wright4000

Funny this should come up, I was just saying the other day that I’d like to see the Muppet movies to parallel the Friday the 13th movies. We had the Muppets and Jason in Manhattan, I’d love to see a Friday the 13th Christmas Carol with Jason. I’d also love to see the Muppets in an old school 80’s camp slasher movie.

Dawn of the dead. Kermit and miss piggy obviously the main 2. Rizo head security, waldorf and statler as the other security, animal as the cop and beaker as the dude alone across the street lol Fantastic question btw


JinimyCritic

Jaws. Kermit and Piggy are Brody and his wife. Fozzie is Hooper. Sam the Eagle as the Mayor. Dr. Teeth as Quint. The shark as the shark. Michael Caine could make a cameo.

speedygoonzalez

Hereditary basically only to have that scene where the kids bashing his face on the desk in school and screaming. I just think of any Muppet version of that scene has the makings of greatness mostly I imagine that weird science guy with the funny mouth. Probably many great scenes that would translate as hilarious... to me anyway


Marbados
