10 Horror Movie Villains Who Were Totally Right
9. Alpha - Slotherhouse
Just look at this adorable little critter! How could she ever possibly be wrong?
We're talking, of course, about Alpha, the killer sloth "villain" from 2023's brilliantly monikered comedy-horror Slotherhouse.
At the start of the film, Alpha is minding her own business, just slothin' around in the jungles of South America, when she's kidnapped by a poacher and sold to a college student named Emily (Lisa Ambalavanar) who wishes to use Alpha to boost her popularity.
While Emily is more naive than ill-intentioned, she's still paying into a system that's built on ripping animals away from their homes and abusing them. More to the point, Alpha's subsequent rampage across Emily's sorority is entirely on-brand for a wild animal being forcibly removed from its habitat and subjected to the vapid banality of humanity.
That's why, generally speaking, we don't do that.
Alpha did nothing wrong, acting purely on instinct as animals are wont to do, ensuring her demise at the end was genuinely tragic.
