10 Worst Characters In Game Of Thrones 

8. The Mountain

The Mountain maybe isn't an obvious contender for being one of the worst characters in Game of Thrones - indeed, he'd qualify for the other definition of 'worst' too - but unfortunately his hulking mass doesn't contain, well, anything else.

Yes, he's big, and now he's undead, which makes him slightly more fun to watch, if only because of how everyone is even more terrified of him.

That's really about it though, he's a big brute who follows orders and is good at swinging a sword around. That in itself isn't necessarily a bad thing, he doesn't need to be a deep character like this brother is, but they could at least give him something more to work with.

Despite being played by three different actors he's remained pretty much the same throughout. In the books he's a much more terrifying beast, who rapes, sacks, and murders wherever he pleases, a truly cruel monster who takes pleasure in the act and has no regard for human life, but in the show it's reduced more to events before the series started.
