10 Horror Movie Characters You Totally Expected To Die... But Didn’t
10. Calvin Bouchard - Jaws 3-D
The writers behind the Jaws series seem to have a very poor opinion of those in positions of authority and the decisions that they tend to make when faced with the threat of shark attacks.
In the first two movies, we have Larry Vaughn, a money-hungry mayor who prioritised the local economy over the lives of innocent people, and for Jaws 3-D, it's Calvin Bouchard, the douchebag manager of SeaWorld, who also values profits over the sanctity of life.
When a baby shark finds its way into SeaWorld, Calvin is quick to have it captured and confined to an incredibly small exhibit that ultimately kills it, prompting the shark's much larger mother to launch an attack on SeaWorld.
Calvin's greed is the cause of all the bloodshed and mayhem of Jaws 3-D, and you'd assume that, given his cruelty has led to many innocent lives being lost, he'd end up as shark chum himself. However, Bouchard isn't sleeping with the fishes by the time the end credits roll around.
It's truly a shame that Bouchard doesn't get his comeuppance, as seeing him brought down by his own nefarious actions would have perhaps made Jaws 3-D a much better film.
