15 Chilling Movie Villains That Are Harrowing To Watch

15. Rose Armitage - Get Out

Jordan Peele's brilliant horror satire Get Out presents us with one of the worst families imaginable: a bunch of sickening individuals who kidnap black people in order to use their bodies to host their elderly white friends. It's perhaps the cleverest slavery metaphor of them all.

All four members of the family are appalling, but Rose is by far the worst. It's clear the rest of the family are sinister from the start, but Rose appears to be on the side of her boyfriend, protagonist Chris Washington right up until she abruptly flips the switch. In a matter of seconds, she switches from a caring girlfriend to a vile psychopath.

The reason Rose is so disturbing is her ability to hide her evil from everyone, including all of us, so effectively. She is a fantastic actor and this is thanks to Allison Williams' superb, criminally underrated performance.

Once she drops the veil, it becomes clear she truly is as evil as they come; a cold, remorseless and chillingly calm psychopath who takes a clear pleasure in destroying the innocent Chris. She may have eventually had a painful demise, but given how appalling she was even that didn't feel like enough.
