• Agneepath: The drug lord Kancha Cheena counts in both the 1990 original and the 2012 remake of this Bollywood action-drama:
  • Original: The ruthless Kancha frames the kind schoolteacher Deenanath Chauthan for moral hypocrisy when the man opposes his plans to build a base for heroin smuggling, having him lynched by the villagers. When Chauthan's son Vijay returns years later for revenge, Kancha is as callous as ever, running his operations via intimidation and murder.

Finally, Kancha takes Vijay's family hostage and guns down his old friend in front of him, even burning and bombing the village without care to who is there or not.
  • Remake: A sadist who embraces his own atrocities and seeks to establish a criminal empire in Mumbai, Kancha firmly believes in having no desire nor attachments in life, which he proves by manipulating his father into giving up the island village of Mandwa before he murders a school girl and frames Master Dinanath Chauhan, a highly respected school teacher who had been trying to stop Kancha, for the crime. After executing Master Chauhan and chasing the Master's family out of the island, Kancha begins running Mandwa as a concentration camp for the next 15 years, horribly exploiting and massacring villagers and gleefully torturing and killing any who oppose him.

Ruthven considers her his "favorite" prostitute, having her gang-raped by his upper class associates and regularly violating and beating her himself. After she gives birth to her daughter Eleanor, Ruthven is discovered to be dying of syphilis and that he discovered the existence of vampires; he did so during the war when he abandoned his kindhearted friend Darvell to die, robbing him and revealing his hatred for the man. Ruthven plans on joining the vampire Brethren to escape death, but is cheated out of immortality by Clara, who became a vampire instead. In retribution, Ruthven rapes the teenage Eleanor to spite Clara; not only does he deliberately pass on his syphilis to her, but it's also implied that Eleanor could be he own daughter.
