Thanks for the suggestions, but I'll leave it at these 2 because even though Other Mommy hasn't come out yet, they seem to have more in common, which makes it a cleaner poll

@ethan ​ I think Jen has a point, maybe you need to specify select or selected in your question, or that your question has an extremely limited scope of the evil mother troupe. Otherwise, its seems like you are saying there are just two titles that fit the bill or are being randomly exclusionary to the much larger answer pool to get a cleaner poll

The mommy horror subgenre probably contains at least fifty to a hundred-fifty solid subgenre titles where the main antagonist is a mother or mommy. There are six hundred and twenty horror titles had have both keywords listed on IMDb alone (in reality the total should be higher). There are least a couple dozen high vote mommy horror titles that come to my mind beyond just these two titles. https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?keywords=mother&explore=keywords&genres=horror

FYC,

Face-Off: 'Mommy' vs 'The Other Mother'

Which select evil version of a mother do you find more menacing between these two "mommy horror" subgenre titles?

Have you considered Urb's suggestion to rephrase the question?

Other Mommy is getting very negative reviews, which to me makes the poll a bit less interesting, so I'll include your suggestions and expand the poll to evil mothers, if such a poll doesn't exist already, I need help with a title, though

@ethan,

The title would depend on your take on the mommy horror genre, the only existing poll I am aware of is Motherhood-Themed Horror Movies, which asks, Which of these motherhood-themed horror films is your favorite?

They types seem to fall into two major categories.

1) horror movies where the evil mother is the antagonist (villain)

and those

2) horror movies where the good mother is the protagnist (hero)

You will then need to decide if your focus is on the mommy horror titles or the mommy horror characters?

Suggestions for the title:

Scary 'Mother' Characters

Evil 'Mother' Characters

Most Frightening 'Mother' Character

There are probably a lot more villainous or evil mothers, but do you mean to only include characters with 'Mother' or some variation in the name?
