Left out any of Ray Harryhausen's creations;they deserve a category of their own.

Cloverfield was the best realized but doesn't really belong on that list of classic monsters that go back decades. So Kong wins.

While I love the original King Kong, I had to go with Godzilla for sheer lizardyness...
Besides, I like Mighty Joe Young even better...

I'd agree that Cloverfield is a minor masterpiece of monster movie madness.

Cloverfield scared me. The others on the list didn't. I find scary a necessary quality for a monster.

If I hadn't seen the three newer Gamera movies it'd make my choice that much easier, as it is it's a tie between Godzilla and Gamera for me.

Kong.
The best original concept other than Superman.
(Gwangi is a personal favorite. Dinosaurs and cowboys!)

"King Kong"--The Kinks "Godzilla"--Blue Oyster Cult
Tough one to call, but "Godzilla" has a better riff.

Kong can show emotion facially while none of the others really can.

The American version of Godzilla is a black mark against the big guy but I still voted for him. He's totally epic.
I never liked King Kong. Something about him annoys me.
The movie Rodan is kind of cool, especially those creepy wormy things.
