The Truth Behind Your Favorite Movie Villain

Even though this looks a little silly now, folks were terrified and unnerved by this monster in the 1950s. Folks everywhere were terrified of heading out onto a boat! Ricou Browning reprised his role as The Gill-Man multiple times.

The Monsters in It Follows

It Follows is a different take on a psychological thriller. An unknown entity, invisible to everyone but the person it's following, is on a slow mission to kill its prey. The entity takes on different forms of humans. Sometimes, it can be someone you know. A lot of these entities were always off-looking, whether they were completely naked or horribly banged up and bruised.

Even though the entity was supposed to be portrayed as an "everyday person" it was always a little off. The actors who were cast to play the entity had to undergo makeup to make them look just a little scarier! 

Calvin Candie - Leonardo DiCaprio

It's not often that DiCaprio plays a total villain, but he truly nailed his role as Calvin Candie in Django Unchained. This character is an immoral nightmare and, somehow, DiCaprio completely transformed himself into the role. For actors who are as well established as DiCaprio is, it's hard to watch a movie and not think about the actor themselves.
