Most detestable horror film characters
Which characters in horror films do you bare an intense hatred for? Some of mine:
The wife in Mario Azzopardi's Deadline. I hated her so much that she almost single-handedly ruined the film for me. I wanted to jump on screen and put her out of my misery. The father and sister in The Spell. Pure scum who don't receive the comeuppances that they so richly deserve. The inspector in Let Sleeping Corpses Lie. He was my most-hated for the longest time. Mrs. Carmody and her followers in The Mist. Melissa in F13 Part VII. Mother Abigail and all of her flock in The Stand. I know they're supposed to be the good guys, but they were mind-numbingly goody-two-shoes and judgemental. I'm religous, but I felt far more for the "villains" and wished the miniseries spent as much time with them. The hunters in Hunter's Blood. I was hoping the hillbillies would off the lot of them. The cult in Borderland. This is one of the rare films in which I truly hated the villains and hoped the protagonists would escape. I know there are more, but these immediately came to mind. I'm sure I'll be back with other picks, but what are your's? |

The cast and crew of Sex and the City. The sequel as well.
Kidding aside, I second Mrs. Carmody in The Mist.

Any of the misogynistic, slimy rapists in the original I Spit On Your Grave.

Mrs. Carmody in The Mist, she was a super manipulative, God fearing cunt. I swear I was never so happy to see someone die in my life. I literally jumped out of my seat when it happened.
Captain Rhodes from Day Of The Dead. He is hands down the grand champion villain of all horror cinema in my humble opinion.

Also, I must add Bob from House by the Cemetery to the list. I don't need to explain why. We all know why.

Let's not forget our good buddy Harry Cooper from Night of the Living Dead.

In both the '68 and the '90 version (it just upped his level of douchbaggery to see him in color) If you read Russo's graphic novel that fills in the gaps of the original storyline, you will hate him even more...

Some not mentioned yet:
Curt and Connie from Maximum Overdrive but mostly Connie. Busta Rhymes from Halloween: Resurrection Kelly Rowland from Freddy vs. Jason And Shelley Duvall is quite annoying in The Shining. As well as Stephen Geoffreys is in Fright Night and Anthony Dileo Jr. in Day of the Dead And my non horror is hands down Maria de Medeiros from Pulp Fiction. I have to fast forward every time. It keeps the film from being perfect, just from her two scenes. Last edited by baggio; 08-31-2010 at 03:32 PM. |

Jeffrey Combs in THE FRIGHTENERS. He's a great character, but nevertheless he always somehow succeeds in pissing me off.
 Also, speaking of ALIENS, I pretty much detest Bill Paxton in every single role he over-emotes.

Also, nobody plays detestable scumbags better than the triumvirate of Ray Milland, Robert Vaughn, and Michael Ironside. In fact, detestable scumbags are pretty much the only kind of roles they play. I uniformly hate them in everything.

Otis from "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer" has probably disturbed me more than any other character I can think of quickly and he's a large part of the reasons why I just can't get myself to watch the film again.
