Creapiest movie characters

[IHateMyJob2004]

So, I just saw Hostel 1 and 2 over the past few days.

This is a potential spoiler so be warned:
Anyone who saw Hostel 1 knows that it involves a sort of fetish. A totally messed up fetish but I still call it a fetish. Anyways, I'll assume you saw this movie. The guy that payed to kill the lead character in that movie was by far the creepiest character I have ever seen in a movie. He almost looked like he was euphoric about killing the lead character. I say euphoric because kids read this.

So, what are your thoughts on the creepiest character in a movie?

As for Hostel 2, it isn't as good but mostly because you already know what is going on. If you see either of these movies, you are forewarned that these movies are very gory!

you are talking about hostel and killing yet watch what you say "euphoric because kids read this" sigh.


but i agree. that guy was weird.

Is it really a fetish if there is no sex or anything sexual involved?

I found Javier Bardem's character in No Country for Old Men to be very unsettling. Not creepy in the same way you're talking about OP.

edit: it's "creepiest".

It's like Hostel 1 and 2 were made by completely different people or something. It could have been, I don't know.

The first one had just gratuitous tits everywhere, violence, vulgarity. The second one had pretty much none of that until most of the way through the movie, and then sucked at it.

He wasn't creepy. He was just greed and envy incarnate.

a guy lusting after his sister isn't creepy?

There were definitely creepy moments, but his wussiness outweighed his creepiness.

Considering the history of "royal family" affairs in that era and even several hundred years later, I guess it wasn't anything surprising to me.

*shrug*

You don't think being attracted to your sister is creepy?

It's a Roman thing. In the movie Caligula, the main character is seen banging his sister. And I'd vote Caligula to be one of the creepier characters around.

I can't think of the movie, someone halp me!

There's this old insane asylum and it's closing down for some reason. There is this HUGGGEEE creepy-ass bald white guy with super human strength that escapes hours before the place is to be shut down, and goes on a rampage.

to whoever can ID this movie.

And the "It puts the lotion on the skin" guy for best supporting creep-o-zoid.
