10 Most Exhausted Horror Movie Protagonists

10. Paxton - Hostel

Hostel (2005) is a film by Eli Roth that helped define the subgenre of aptly dubbed 'torture-porn' movies. The plot of the movie as a whole is very weak and is very much a product of its time with the first two thirds of the film having nothing in the way of really belonging to the horror genre. It is characterised by its overuse of nudity and narcotics as a group of college students find themselves in Amsterdam.

Once the actual plot of the film gets going, which is a good hour or so into the movie, the torture that ensues is completely worth the wait for any avid 'torture-porn' horror fan!

The individual that survives until the very end of the movie is Paxton, and he undoubtedly is the most exhausted person in this film. After enduring the torture at the hands of twisted individuals, seeing his friends mutilated dead bodies, and finally having to cut off a woman's eyeball in order to escape the clutches of his kidnappers, Paxton certainly gives any horror more protagonist a good run for their money!
