    Just as Tina Fey could pass for Sarah Palin, my landlady could easily pass for Nancy Pelosi with some acting and mannerism coaching. (I'm in Windsor, Ontario, and she's American from Michigan and hasn't been over the border this year.) She definitely has her issues but in general my landlady is a good person. Nancy on the other hand...

    I've seen enough fantasy movies that this should come easily, yet nothing springs to mind. Something innocent looking that turns into a monster for a cheap audience scare might work in the moment but is so cliché that none really stand out.

    So the only think that comes to mind is Night On Bald Mountain where the demon's shadow corrupts the town. She is evil incarnate. The Disney demon is actually less evil than she is simply because he doesn't do anything too bad other than throw a decent party and tosses down a couple handfuls of demons into the volcano - trivial in comparison to the US War Machine.

      Yes, you're quite correct. Not innocent so much as simply as harmless as a little old lady. They are not always so harmless or innocent but they are usually not considered a dire threat to humanity.
