10 MORE Horror Movies Where The Victim Is More Dangerous Than The Villain

8. The Janitor - Willy's Wonderland

Heavily inspired by Five Night At Freddy's, Willy's Wonderland centres around a silent drifter who agrees to work overnight in a family entertainment centre to pay for car repairs. Little does he know the animatronic mascots in the building are possessed by the spirits of serial killers.

Although this supernatural development should be enough to cause the average person to run for their lives or call for help, The Janitor remains unfazed. When the machines attack, he retaliates in turn, reducing them to bloody scrap metal.

It's worth mentioning that nothing is revealed about the lead character at any point. We never learn about his background, family, or his motivation. Just to make him more enigmatic, The Janitor never utters a word.

But whatever he's experienced must've been hell on Earth, since he has no trouble taking down these evil automatons. Even though he could've accepted help from the other characters, he never asks for it. Then again, he doesn't need to, since he batters and eviscerates these robots like it's his job.

The sinister androids are scary, but there's no doubt the drifter is significantly more terrifying.
