15 Creepiest Things Done By MCU Characters

7. Project Insight (Captain America: The Winter Soldier)

The Moment: Though S.H.I.E.L.D. honcho Alexander Pierce initially claims that Project Insight is an initiative to prevent terrorist attacks, once he shows his true colours as a HYDRA operative, it's revealed that the project is actually engineered to murder political dissidents and anyone who might challenge HYDRA's plans for world domination.

Why It's Creepy: This is some straight-up sci-fi Hitler s*** right here, all the more so because it operated off an algorithm developed by Arnim Zola. So, someone disagrees with your cause? Better kill them, and better do it with a highly-armed, satellite-guided weapon from space, right? It's as disturbingly intelligent and conniving as any plan in the MCU so far, but thankfully the day was of course saved by Cap and co. before it could come to fruition.
