10 Best Horror Movie Characters Who Appear In Only One Scene

2. Eddie - The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Last Man Mad God
20th Century Fox

Richard O'Brien's mind-boggling, toe-tapping comedy horror musical is one of the purest examples of a cult classic in cinema. You can't go to any nightclub on Halloween without seeing your fair share of Frank-N-Furter's or Columbia's about the place, and that's a prime example of how popular the flick was/still is. Among it's collection of iconic moments is a memorable performance from the late great Meat Loaf as the delivery-boy Eddie.

Eddie bursts onto the scene out of a deep freeze container riding a motorbike and sporting a nasty wound on his head - a result of Dr Frank-N-Furter stealing half of his brain. He then proves you don't need all your brain cells to rock 'n roll as he sings the banging earworm, "Hot Patootie".

Sadly, the party doesn't last long, as Frank-N-Furter gets jealous and brutally hacks Eddie to death with an ice pick. It's safe to say this entire scene (like the movie itself) is an explosive and bombastic watch, giving you a slew of iconic imagery and indulging in itself entirely.

Meat Loaf took on other acting roles during his lifetime, but it's hard to find any that topped this one.
