* ''Film/TheOmen'' series: [[VillainProtagonist Damien Thorn]] is TheAntichrist foretold in scripture. [[AntiAntiChrist Initially horrified by this revelation]], Damien eventually accepts his destiny, and sets out to TakeOverTheWorld. Making his lineage known in ''Film/DamienOmenII'', he incites an aneurysm in his cousin's brain when he refused [[WeCanRuleTogether his offer of world conquest]]. Becoming Ambassador to Great Britain in ''Film/OmenIIITheFinalConflict'', he decrees that every baby boy born on March 24, 1982, [[NiceJobBreakingItHerod be executed]] when he realized that the Second Coming of Christ was imminent. Among other atrocities, Damien coldly brainwashes Barbara into killing her husband and son with a clothes iron. Any redeeming traits that he may have had in the other films quickly dissipate once he gets romantically involved--and later rapes--a female journalist. Always the [[ManipulativeBastard charismatic figure]], Damien manipulates the journalist's young son into discipleship, only to remorselessly use him as a HumanShield when De Carlo attempts to kill him. Demonic, malicious, and blasphemous, Damien craved to fling the Earth into [[HellOnEarth eternal damnation]].
