10 Horror Movie Characters Who Got What Was Coming To Them

4. The Armitage Family - Get Out

Human Centipede 2
Universal

You just know something isn’t right with the Armitages when we first meet them in Jordan Peele’s directorial debut, Get Out.

They’re creepy; especially the son Jeremy who’s just downright unpleasant. At least protagonist Chris has a nice girlfriend in Rose Armitage though…

Chris soon starts to realise there’s something far more malicious going on here, which comes to a head when matriarch Missy hypnotises him – introducing Chris and the audience to the now iconic Sunken Place. The Armitages are revealed to be part of an insidious group that transplant their brains into the bodies of unsuspecting victims, who are Black more often than not.

This weird coven of racist monsters do get their comeuppance, as Chris manages to escape their claustrophobic grasp and the viewer can’t help but cheer him on as he takes them out one by one.
