20 Greatest Horror Villains Of The 2020s (So Far)

Horror villains don't get much more stomach-churningly vile than Frank (Richard Brake) from Barbarian - a man who spent years abducting and sexually assaulting young women, in turn getting them pregnant and then repeating the very same abuse on their children.

Though Frank doesn't get much screen time throughout Zach Cregger's gonzo horror flick, and spends the entirety of the present day timeline confined to a bed, he makes one hell of an impression as the father of the grotesque mutant woman (Matthew Patrick Davis) stalking the bowels of his home.

And of course, the ever-great Richard Brake is one of the all-time best Weirdo Character Actors, so it's little surprise that he gave a supremely chilling performance in the role.

As outlandish as Barbarian ultimately is, there's still a real, grounded core to Frank's character - people like him do exist, and that's so much scarier than even the creepiest of supernatural entities.
