Most hated Movie Character of all time

    I was watching The Green Mile again last night and I was sure that if I typed in the above subject title into Google I'd find dozens of lists about people's most hated movie characters, and at the top of a lot of them would be Percy Wetmore. A truly hateful character.

    What's your most hated film character?

    (I'm going for villain or scummy type characters now, not ones that annoyed you)

    I agree completely with you OP - Percy was such an awful little weazel of a man. Horrible.

    As Galdiator is one of my favourite movies and I watch it a lot I find Commodus awful.

    Bugger, my vote was going to be for Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker if we were allowed vote for annoying people

    I haven't read the Stephen King original but I believe in the original story Percy was actually posessed by a demon or it was inferred in some way. I could be wrong but Stephen King does like to fiddle with supernatural clowns and the like.
    More on topic, I can't think right now! If one comes to me though.

    Sticking [sort of] with Stephen King, Mrs. Carmody in 'The Mist', truly despised that woman.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    I would end this thread right now If it was for most annoying,

    Saffron Burrows as Dr. Susan McCallister in Deep Blue Sea, The cinema actually clapped when
    she died
    when I saw it first.

    For Evil/Bastard, Hmmmmm Tough but I'd go for the Warden in The Shawshank Redemption.

    Jason Isaacs who played an English officer in 'The Patriot' with Mel Gibson is the character I'd love to shoot! Kills mel's kids etc....

    I didnt particularly hate him,but the Duke in Salo is an utterly repulsive charactor.

    Uncle Bully in Once Were Warriors was a total bastard too.

    Tommy Devito from Goodfellas, a right little sociopath under that mob bravado.

    Sarah Michelle Gellar in Cruel Intentions........what a ****.

    Cameron Alexander from American History X. Derek put it best;

    "You got a whole crop already lined up you ****in' chicken hawk.....You prey on people Cam. I lost three years of my life for your ****in' phony cause, but I'm onto you now you ****in' snake"

    Mos Def's character in 16 blocks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43 Expresso Bongo


    Begbie from Trainspotting (prob because I hung around with a toned-down version of the character for several years before telling him to finally fak-off). Definite bit of short-man syndrome going on there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,612 ✭✭✭uncleoswald


    Burke from Aliens.
    Mr. Environmental pencil pusher from Ghostbusters, how right-wing does that movie seem now?

    + 1 Begbie.

    David McCall (Mark Wahlberg) in Fear
    Martin Lombard (Christopher McDonald) in The Skulls

    Nurse Ratched from One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest and Brother John in Song for a Raggy Boy, its one of the few times I have got up off my seat and roared at the tv for these characters to be killed. I have never felt such passionate hatred for a fictional charcater.
    Annie Wilkes in Misery is another dispicable character.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 125 ✭✭Trail_Blazer


    Going to go with Nurse Ratchett from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,624 ✭✭✭Dancor

    The Nazi soldier that Ray Fiennes plays in Schindler's List. Scary f*cker.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,408 ✭✭✭VonLuck


    As before, Mrs. Carmody from The Mist and also Brent Norton. That guy was just a douche.

    And in the Night of the Living Dead remake (1990), Harry Cooper, the guy who's daughter was bitten.

    Bogs Diamond (leader of The Sisters) from The Shawshank Redemption. I love Mark Rolston but I've never been so happy to see someone get beaten to a pulp :mad:

    I heard that originally she was meant to be the love interest that we were to be rooting for. When they first shot it she
    survived the end and swam off into the sunset with Thomas Jane
    . But the preview audience booed the crap out of her so much that they reshot it and
    instead they let her die and LL Cool J survive and swim off with Thomas Jane
    . You can tell where they spliced in the reshoots as they are obviously just in the pool and you can't see the huge set.

    Fair play to the makers but poor Saffron Burrows must have felt very unloved.

    The Ray Winstone character and his band of thugs in Cold Mountain really made my blood boil....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 400 ✭✭Wheely


    Anybody seen blindness, I know it got crap reviews but I actually thought it was excellent. Anyway, on topic, Gael Garcia Bernal's character in it is despicable!!!

    Christine Pagneattci (Cameron Diaz) in Any given Sunday also Lauren Holly in the same movie. Ginger (Sharon Stone) in Casino. C.W Moss's father in Bonnie and Clyde. Edward de Longshanks in Braeheart. Dave Klienfeld (Sean Penn) in Carlitos way. I can def think of more!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,005 ✭✭✭Ann22


    Totally agree with Percy, Mrs Carmody and that priest from Song for a Raggy Boy...great choices... I also hated Archibald Cunningham (Tim Roth's character) from Rob Roy and the (rapist)warden in chief in Midnight Express...Larry Vaughn - Amity's mayor in Jaws 1 and 2. Give me time, I'll think of more, I hate a lot of people:o.
