10 Horror Movie Protagonists Who Kind Of Deserved To Die

10. Mike & Heather – The Blair Witch Project

As ground-breaking as The Blair Witch Project was back when it was released nearly 20 years ago, there’s no denying the majority of its protagonists were a tad challenged in the old likability department.

Poor Josh, who found himself on the receiving end of some impromptu dental work by the titular witch, was kind of bearable but Heather and Mike? Hell, those creepy stick figures had more personality than those two combined.

Film students can be an insufferable bunch at the best of times but Heather and Mike took the proverbial biscuit. From Mike throwing away the group’s map and their only real hope of escaping the Burkittsville woods alongside being a little bitch in general to Heather’s domineering, self-righteous personality and that snotty-nosed, extreme close-up apology scene they’re the kind of characters that have you cheering on the Blair Witch from the start.
