10 More Horror Movie Heroes Who Made Everything Worse

10. Anna D'Antoni - Maniac (1980)

Regardless of whether you watch the 1980 original or the 2012 remake, Maniac is all kinds of messed up.

Both versions follow Frank, a man suffering from childhood trauma who takes his pain out on the world by murdering women and removing their scalps. This is why therapy is important, people!

As with most women-targeting serial killers, Frank ends up falling for one of his supposed victims. In this case, it's a photographer named Anna, played by Caroline Munro in the original and Nora Arnezeder in the remake.

Anna spots Frank out and about and takes a picture of him, which leads to him developing an infatuation with her. Unfortunately, the poor woman is completely oblivious to his homicidal ways, and ends up delivering victims to Frank on a plate.

She introduces him to Rita, one of her colleagues, who Frank eventually ends up kidnapping and scalping. Nice one, Anna. Try explaining that one to HR.

Even if you don't blame her for not knowing Frank's true nature, Anna was old enough to know not to invite strange men into her workplace, a mistake for which she paid heavily.
