The most terrifying villain in a film (The Vanishing)

- The Vanishing (AKA Spoorloos) is a 1988 Dutch Thriller film by George Sluizer and I personally believe that the antagonist (Raymond Lermone) is the most terrifying villain in any film that I’ve seen and this video explains why

“He isn’t scary at all”
Cool, I’m glad you have a different opinion. But can you please keep it to yourself. You are not adding anything by commenting this and it feels kinda rude when you butt in like that. In fact, why did you even watch this video in the first place if you feel this way?
He isnt scary at all
He is.
One should be open to criticism it can only enlightened our world view
But it’s not criticism of the video
It's incredible how far evil can go! Continuing with Bundy's parallels, Bundy himself rescued a child from drowning just like in the movie and was decorated as an illustrious citizen. nice video ! Saludos desde argentina
This film really does a fantastic job of driving home the point of you never know who is capable of what. Or what is going through someone’s mind. Evil can come from anywhere and look like anyone else. This film was fantastic, it really got in my head.
You’ve hit the nail on the head right here
Fantastic movie, thanks for the review. I've now seen it a few times and keep finding small details that amaze me. At the end, Raymond's wife is watering 2 sapling trees as he is watching her ( also the trailer cart he used is seen in the background ) Possibly Raymond has planted them right on top of the graves. Earlier in the movie Rex & Saskia buried 2 gold coins underneath 2 trees, which he is seen around later before drinking the coffee at the gas station...coincidence? Also John Hammond at 1:36
He feels like he's got a right to choose...very true , he did choose evil
I've recently rediscovered Charles Laughton, one of the greatest actors to grace the scene, and found his Dr. Moreau in The Island of Lost Souls absolutely terrifying.
As an American I am continually finding out that many films I viewed made by an American film company often are revealed to be a remake from a far more superior European - foreign original and am often disappointed that I experienced the film by watching a poorly recreated attempt first without knowing the original already exists, very disappointing
Thank you for this video. Great job! I agree. It is one of the most disturbing movies. He is evil and vicious. WAtcing the movie WAS a paralysing experience.
Being buried alive is so terrifying. I haven't seen this film. I watched a film a while ago "Megan is Missing " the plot was pretty straightforward with no twists or turns but the ending was horrifying and I still have bad dreams about it 😕
Great job on this video man. New subscriber right here 👍🏻👍🏻
Now I didn’t watch all of this video, as the video said to click away towards the end for spoilers, so I’ll just comment on what I saw.
A great film analysis, a lot more in depth, well researched and interesting to think on. I absolutely will watch The Vanishing at some point
Thank you for not spoiling yourself because you would be doing yourself a massive disservice
And I’m glad you liked the video
Your channel is pretty crazy! I see Doctor Who stuff, wonderful, Nintendo of course, excellent, the first video is a ranking of portrait ghosts from Luigi's Mansion, a TRG compilation and then a video on Spoorloos of all things, one of my favourite films! Really good stuff!
Yeah, my channel is pretty crazy
Although I will admit that I am in the middle of a rebrand. The film stuff will continue but the Nintendo stuff isn’t really for me and I’m planning on moving the Doctor Who content to another channel
Either way, I’m glad to find another person who’s at least heard of this film
just watched the american version. i’m here cause i don’t wanna watch the whole thing all over again but i was cute about the ending lol so thanks for this
Ugh this movie is so good. So horrifyingly good!
I can watch the remake up until the last part and the very ending which is very similar to Misery. Hollywood was producing a lot of these at the time and despite the story the ending made it into just another generic 90s thriller.
Another thing is - we don't know if what happend to Rex Hofman also happend to Saskia.. He might as well
been lying. He could've raped or tortured her, and then buried her alive, or who knows..
I never really thought of it like that but that’s an even more haunting thought
Thanks for the new nightmares mate 😂
i watch the full movie but the last part once i saw him in the covin i just closed the movie and i know how deep it went
Bruno Antony from Hitchcock's Strangers on a train (1951) may be an honourable mention.
I need to watch that film
There is similarity, indeed
I was going to mention Ted Bundy, scariest monster ever.
Lecter isn't scary, as long you're polite.
Fair point
Darth Vader
The most terrifying movie villain? How
Two words: Rouge One
There’s other reasons but that’s the main one for me
He's love to hate. Raymond is more terrifying.
not a scarry film
You see the American remake does suck but J expect we have different reasons for believing this. As an American, were I to have a loved one go missing and I were confronted with a man (women or child for that matter) who claimed responsibility, I could learn everything I wanted to know without having to drink a goddamn thing they gave me. I'm capable of much worse than leaving someone in a box in the ground, in fact I'm certain I could make them beg for such kindness before I was through and would know everything in their head, literally. People that say torture doesn't work have had different life experiences than I. Sometimes the only way to deal with truly "bad" guys is to be worse. As long as you are sure in your convictions it shouldn't trouble you much.
Watched this movie after seeing comment after comment of how disturbing it was and the film fell incredibly short of my expectations. This “terrifying” villain only succeeded in committing two terrible acts the entire movie. 😂 I understand that what makes him scary is that he’s a sociopath under the guise of an ordinary guy but come on lol. There are dozens upon dozens of scarier villains in films. Another movie people put in the category with this one is Cure hopefully that one lives up to the hype.
Haven’t seen Cure so can’t comment
Oh well, not everyone will like the same things. At least you gave it a chance
It one of most realistic psychopath in movie history.Cold blooded and calculating without exaggeration like many other movies.
The most terrifying? Not really. And Kubericks feeling is also overrated
actual peole are not capable of doing this
You’d be surprised how depraved humanity can be
You sound weirdly naive. People are capable of much much worse. I mean Bundy was mentioned in this video. Just look him up.
I mean yes it would be a lot harder today to do something so heinous without going unnoticed but probably still possible
Wrong, so wrong, look at Nazi Germany? Millions of Germans cheering on innocent people to the gas chamber. All humans have the capability of evil
