Politically Incorrect Villain / Live-Action Films

Politically Incorrect Villains in live-action movies.

---

• 12 Angry Men:
  • This is the defining character trait for Juror #10. He openly admits to not caring about the evidence, and votes guilty purely because the kid is... some minority ethnicity. During his Villainous Breakdown, all of the other jurors, some of whom are major Jerkasses in their own right, are visibly disgusted by his racism.
  • To a lesser extent, Juror #7, who makes some xenophobic comments towards Juror #11, implying that just because he's an immigrant he doesn't have the right to serve on a jury.
• 22 July: Anders makes it clear that the motivation behind the attack was an attack on leftist political values, denigrating his victims as Marxists, and claiming that his actions were necessary to prevent further Muslim immigration to Norway.
• .45: Aside from being a violent alcoholic gun dealer, Big Al is sexist, racist and homophobic.
• In Addams Family Values, the camp counselors very obviously give the blond WASP kids the desirable parts of the play while putting Wednesday, Pugsley, and the children who are minorities in the less desirable roles. Their script is also absurdly racist, harping on how primitive the Indians are and stressing that the superior white children shouldn't be too snobbish about how much better they are. At least until Wednesday takes the story Off the Rails...
• All About E: Johnny is a sleezy, cruel club owner who's also involved with (implied) drug dealing, repeatedly threatening people with bodily harm so he can get his bag of money back. He's the main villain of the plot, while also calling Arabs racial slurs repeatedly, and people of color overall as well.
• The indie movie Amreeka, which revolves around Muna and Fadi Farah, a mother and son, as they transition from their life in the West Bank to a rural Indiana town, has them deal with the hostility of the locals since the story takes place a few months after 9-11. Particularly, they have to deal with a white high school student that refers to Fadi and his extended family as "terrorists," simply because they are Arab. Things come to a head when The Bully goes to Muna's workplace, and after making fun of them, she chases him and his friends away, which causes her to slip and fall while they walk away laughing. Later, when Fadi goes to confront the bully, they tussle on the ground with the bully yelling out: "terrorist!" Which causes the police to arrest Fadi, and hold him for questioning. It's only with the intervention of the Jewish high school principal that Fadi is let go with a warning, and the police stop any investigation for a possible terrorist connection.
• ...And Justice for All: Fleming is a Hanging Judge protagonist Kirkland's archnemesis. He's very conservative, strictly abiding by the law to keep an innocent man in prison and advocates having capital punishment for more crimes than is allowed at present. Fleming also turns out to be a sadistic, unrepentant rapist.
• Invoked in Antitrust when NURV CEO Gary Winston hires a group of white supremacists to murder the Asian programmer Teddy and steal his work for him. He was banking on the "hate crime" angle to serve as a Red Herring for what really happened. Milo also speculates that, should NURV need to eliminate Lisa, they'll do the same with her, framing her abusive stepfather for her death.
• Assault on a Queen: Victor, the most criminal of the Villain Protagonists, is casually racist and sexist: directing a lot of derogatory comments towards Linc, and treating Rosa like his personal property. Interestingly, Eric, who is former U-boat captain, has no issues working with Linc, who is black.
• Miles Quaritch from Avatar expresses Fantastic Racism in the sense that it applies to another species than another race. That said, the very nature of his remarks very closely resembles conventional racism.
• Back to the Future: Members of Biff and Buford Tannen's gangs use racial slurs such as "spook" and "chink". Buford himself "once bragged that he'd shot 12 men, not including Indians or Chinamen."
• Behind Enemy Lines: Naturally. The villains are Serbian supremacists in the middle of The Yugoslav Wars. The reason they're pursuing a downed U.S. Navy pilot so insistently is that his plane overflew and took pictures of the mass graves of their murdered victims.
• In John Wayne's anti-Communist movie Big Jim McLain, one of the Communist villains is an anti-black racist, even though racism was something that American communists officially opposed-they supported civil rights. Bonus points in that John Wayne was pretty racist himself in Real Life, as were many anti-communists of the time-they opposed civil rights as a "communist plot" because the communists supported it. Ironically, that's also exactly how the CPUSA's KGB handlers viewed the civil rights crowd in real life, sans slogans: as useful idiots for destabilizing America. That a '60s Communist should be a (hypocritical) racist isn't necessarily out of character at all.
• In Blade II, Bloodpact member Reinhardt makes a racist comment towards Blade. In the DVD Commentary, Guillermo del Toro even calls him "a Nazi".^note Ironically, his actor, Ron Perlman, is Jewish Apparently it was based on a real comment that Wesley Snipes once received from a real Nazi.
• Blazing Saddles: Oddly, Big Bad Hedley Lamarr doesn't show as much blatant bigotry as his henchmen, Mr. Taggart and Lyle. He doesn't show as much racism as the Innocent Bystanders that the black sheriff is protecting! When hiring outlaws the Big Bad advertises himself as an Equal Opportunity Employer and specifically mentions in his famous Long List that he wants criminals of many different races and backgrounds working for him. On the other hand, he doesn't hesitate to slap Lily around and insult her German ancestry when she does a High-Heel–Face Turn. Hedley is also in charge of appropriating land in Colorado from the local Indians, justifying this by claiming that "they're such children." Even that could be chalked up to playing to his audience, the governor and his cabinet. Lamarr just does it for the money and power.
• The Blues Brothers introduces its neo-Nazi villains by giving their leader a deeply racist speech at a rally. Our heroes are not pleased. There's also the neo-Nazi henchman's report to his boss that the Blues brothers are "Catholics," and the boss' reaction to it.^note This probably flies over some modern viewers' heads, but anti-Catholicism was very serious business indeed in the Midwest for much of the twentieth century, where the large influx of immigrants from Catholic nations such as Ireland, Italy, and Poland was one of the biggest triggers for the growth of fascist and white supremacist movements, arguably becoming an even bigger deal than anti-black racism. In the modern day, this attitude has almost entirely died out; most white supremacist movements accept white people of all heritages and regardless of their Christian denomination. However, in 1980, these conflicts were just recent enough for anti-Catholicism to still be a driver in fascist movements - and a sore spot for people like the Blues, turning a dislike of Nazi politics on general principle into an It's Personal moment.
  Jake: I hate Illinois Nazis.
• Awkwardly done in The Boondock Saints where Yakavetta insists that Rocco refer to the black man in the joke he's telling as a "nigger".
• Boys on the Side:
  • Holly's abusive ex-boyfriend Nick being mean to Jane because she is a lesbian. Even calling her a "dyke" at one point.
  • The male court lawyer holds Holly's friends Jane and Robin against her simply for being lesbians (really bisexual in the latter's case).
• A random Mook in the 1992 Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie: "You're a dyke! I'll tell the world!"
• Byzantium: Nearly all members of the vampire Brethren hold very open contempt for women.
• The Case of the Bloody Iris: The killer Professor Isaacs is implied to be homophobic. His motive for killing is murdering the beautiful girls in the apartment for corrupting his daughter, Sheila. While it's left vague as to what he means by corrupting, Sheila is a lesbian and says she doesn't want her father to know. This, combined with his reaction when he finds Sheila comforting Jennifer in the apartment, suggests he's homophobic and doesn't approve of his daughter being a lesbian.
• Mike Teevee gets upgraded to one in Tim Burton's version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. After describing the rigmarole he went through to game the system and find the golden ticket, he says "A retard could do it." Fitting for someone known for consuming lots of age-inappropriate media.
• Charlie Wilson's War:
  • Downplayed in that he's not really a villain, just an Obstructive Bureaucrat, but CIA official Henry Cravely's cavalier attitude towards the immigrants and children of immigrants employed at the Agency sets off an epically righteous rant by Gust Avrakotos. He's not the only one with this attitude, either, as he's defending a decision by the Director to fire three thousand officers, all of them first- or second-generation Americans.^note The book goes into some more detail about it; the CIA when initially founded was largely a WASP-only club. It's been slowly loosening up since then, but Gust - the child of Greek immigrants - was part of the first generation of non-WASPs that were able to really rise within the Agency, encountering no small amount of class and ethnic prejudice from the old guard along the way.
  Cravely: I'm sorry, but you can hardly blame the Director for questioning the loyalty to America of people that are just barely American in the first place.
  • An offscreen example that nevertheless looms over the entire movie: Gust tries to warn Charlie repeatedly about the dangers of involving himself too deeply with various brands of religious fanatics in his crusade to get the Soviets out of Afghanistan. Charlie does listen, but never realizes the full depth of the problem until reports start coming in of islamists taking over parts of the country after the Soviet withdrawal, by which time nobody in the U.S. government cares.
  • The little we see of the Soviets on screen qualifies them as well. The scenes with combat helicopter pilots casually chatting about their love lives even as they gun down entire Afghan villages with sociopathic indifference falls easily within the usual cliches about Evil Colonialists.
• Chisum: Murphy's store manager and crony, Dolan, repeatedly bullies a Mexican customer and calls him a "greaser" at one point.
• Fred from Polish comedy Chłopaki Nie Płaczą is an arrogant, Know-Nothing Know-It-All thug, spouting racist tirades at the drop of a hat and insulting everyone around, including his not-so-bright partner in crime, Grucha. Until Grucha had enough.
• Cold Turkey: The Sons of the Confederacy club work for the tobacco company (whose ruthless and greedy owner flip a Confederate flag over his mansion) and help try to make people quit smoking before the deadline.
• Being a prison movie (on a plane), Con Air is full of characters who aren't racially sensitive. Cyrus makes remarks towards blacks. Diamond Dog doesn't like hillbillies. Pinball angers the one native American con, etc.
• In The Craft, Alpha Bitch Laura Lizzie torments Rochelle because she is African-American. (Word of God confirms that Rochelle is the only black student in the school.) This detail was added after Rachel True was cast as Rochelle.
• The Craft: Legacy: Lily's stepfather Adam is the embodiment of toxic masculinity; he blatantly looks down on women (especially women with power), despises men who are 'weak' (when they're just being compassionate and respectful of women) and strongly advocates returning to the 'good ol' days' of patriarchy. Given his eldest son feels the need to hide a sexual encounter with another boy, it's also likely he's homophobic too, plus it's implied he killed Timmy for his bisexuality.
• While their support for slavery makes them inherently politically incorrect villains, the Confederate States in the Alternate History C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America is also highly sexist, and while like the actual United States it had Chinese laborers in the 19th century, they chose to enslave theirs. They also decided to be Christian-only, and thus their Jewish population either fled or were allowed to live on ghettos reservations. They also devoted their equivalent of the Red Scare to outing homosexuals.
• The killer in Curse of the Zodiac was quite prone to misanthropic and homophobic rants.
• Dead Man Walking: Matthew makes a handful of racist and sexist comments, plus an interview in which he defends Hitler. Later he expresses regret to Helen for saying these things.
• Death Warrant: The Warden and the rest of his guards are blatantly racist. At one point he hunts down one of Burke's allies to kill him, claiming that he "can smell niggers".
• Simon Phoenix from Demolition Man is a violent, sadistic, destructive Uncle Tomfoolery with No Indoor Voice and no respect for any gender or ethnic group, as during the museum scene he taunts "ching-chong-ching-chong-chin!" after seeing a group of Asian people walking by.
• Frank Costello of The Departed mentions a distaste for "niggers" in his opening monologue. While it is shown to have historical significance, this racism fails to show up in any significant way within the plot — it is only used to establish, mere seconds into the movie, that this guy is not a good man.
  • Later on, he tears into a group of Chinese criminals, despite them aiming machine guns at him, calling them chinks as he berates them for bringing automatic weapons to the deal.
• The terrorists in The Delta Force really hate Jews. When they order the stewardess to pick up the hostages' passports and separate the Jews from the others, she tearfully refuses because she is German and doesn't want to do anything with the Nazis. However, the leader snaps back at her saying that her people didn't kill enough Jews, and in fact The Dragon becomes pissed off when they discover there are Jews in the plane. On a smaller note, they also hate Christians since they sneer at a Catholic priest that wants to help the Jewish hostages, and they round up an Greek Orthodox priest that happens to work for Israel not because of any pragmatic reasons, but because he is a Christian.
• Historian David Irving from Denial sues Deborah Lipstadt for calling him an anti-semite and a Holocaust denier, despite Irving having spent a good portion of his career denying the Holocaust and making extremely racist statements. The trial only exposes further exposes this and that he is very likely a Nazi sympathizer, all the while he continues to deny he is in any way prejudiced.

Richard Rampton: [reading from David Irving's diary] "Jessica is growing into a fine little lady. She sits very upright in an ordinary chair, a product of our walks to the bank, I am sure. On those walks, we sing the Binkety-Bankety-Bong Song. She stars in a poem when half-breed children wheel past." And then you go into italics. "I am a baby Aryan/Not Jewish or Sectarian/I have no plans to marry/An ape or Rastafarian." Racist, Mr. Irving? Anti-Semitic, Mr. Irving?
Davis Irving: I do not think so.
Rampton: Teaching your little child this kind of poison?
Irving: Do you think a nine-month old can understand words spoken in English, or any other sort of language?
Rampton: This poor little child has been taught a racist ditty by her racist and perverted father!
Irving: [smirks] Have you ever read Edward Lear? Hilaire Belloc?
Rampton: They haven't brought a libel action, Mr. Irving, you have! You sued because you said we had called you a racist and an extremist.
Irving: Yes. But I am not a racist.
Rampton: Mr. Irving, look at the words on the page.

• Simon Gruber of Die Hard with a Vengeance plays with this trope like a kitten does a ball of yarn. Although he comes from a family of former Nazis, he harbors no bigoted attitudes in particular. Still, he seems to delight in making people think he is bigoted, mostly because he thinks it's fun to anger people and/or fake them out. When first speaking to Zeus Carver, for example, Simon (who is German but can mimic American Accents quite well, and who knows that Zeus is an angry black man because he's been watching him on hidden video cameras) says: "So whot's yowuh name, boy?" in a twangy fashion just to irritate Zeus; he then apologizes, explaining that he's fond of tasteless jokes. Later the trope is seemingly played straight when Simon calls John McClane a "dumb Irish flatfoot," but this is due not to anti-Irish sentiment but to Simon's general bitterness toward John for having killed his brother, Hans, in the first Die Hard movie. Simon admits that he didn't even like Hans, but he is still determined to exact vengeance on anyone who messes with his family, saying "There's a difference between not liking one's brother, and not caring when some dumb Irish flatfoot drops him off a building."
• Scorpio from Dirty Harry, who writes a ransom note to the mayor, saying he would consider it pleasure to "kill a Catholic priest or a nigger." After the mayor doesn't give him the money, he specifically targets a gay priest, who he fails to kill, and then kills a black boy, by blowing his face off. When he pays a black guy to beat him up, he calls him a "black sonuvabitch".
• Much of District 9 has different levels of these characters, being that it is essentially a story of The Apartheid Era with aliens replacing black people as the victims of racism. Psycho for Hire Koobus, who is the head of MNU's private army, really runs with this trope though when he says that he would do his job for free because he just loves to watch Prawns die.
• Calvin Candie in Django Unchained, a Mississippi plantation owner and utter bigot. He's the only villain created by Quentin Tarantino that Tarantino has gone on the record saying he despises and it's easy to see why by watching the movie. Cruel even by slave-owner standards, he forces his slaves into bloody Fight Clubbing matches to the death and kills them by feeding them to his dogs, justifying his mistreatment by referencing the — debunked — science of phrenology. Ironically, his black servant Stephen is also his most loyal.
• Fire with Fire: David Hagan is a Neo-Nazi crime boss who's the Big Bad and naturally has some comments based on his ideology.
• In Five, Eric reveals himself as a racist (and most likely a former Nazi); he can barely stand living with Charles and attacks Charles when Charles objects.
• Force 10 from Navarone: Aside from the Nazis themselves (though they seem to be more regular German forces), the boisterous Chetnik leader touches Weaver's face to see if his black skin leaves stains. Since he's pretending to be a Partisan at the time, this is a hint that he's actually a Nazi collaborator. When the two meet again in the film's climax and get into a Knife Fight, the Chetnik wounds Weaver and mocks "blackie" for bleeding red.
• In found., Steve is a serial killer who targets mainly black people due to his racist views.
• In Friend of the World, Gore questions Diane "How will we ever repopulate?" because she is a lesbian.
• The horror film Frontier(s) features a family of neo-Nazis who frequently use racial slurs.
• It's more a sign of the times (the 1860's) but Bill the Butcher from Gangs of New York is profoundly racist, especially against the Irish but also against anyone who isn't white and Protestant.
• In The Gift (2000), Keanu Reeves plays a brutal, wifebeating thug who is menacing the psychic heroine with insults and threats and apropos of nothing at all he announces, "You ain't no better than a Jew or a nigger!" He is a Red Herring for the murderer and ends up becoming somewhat sympathetic, sending him into subversion territory.
• The Godfather
  • One of the other dons, describing his plan for his gang's drug trafficking, intends to market heroin to blacks, saying "They're animals anyway, let them lose their souls".
  • Jack Woltz, while not a true villain in the movie (in the book he's a much more distasteful individual), he quickly loses any sympathy he may have had by throwing every slur in the book against Italians at Tom Hagen in a single sentence.When Tom points out that he's actually part Irish and part German, Woltz then refers to Tom as "My kraut-mick friend."
  • There's also Senator Geary in The Godfather Part II, who rants about "oily-haired" Italian-Americans "pretending to be decent Americans." He's forced to eat these words later on, after being blackmailed by Michael, giving a ridiculously over-the-top speech praising Italian-Americans to a Senate committee.
• The Green Mile: Percy and Wild Bill, in both the novel and the film. Percy refers to Delacroix as a "faggot" twice. Wild Bill refers to John Coffey as a "nigger" multiple times and references "Little Black Sambo" when spitting a moon pie into Brutal's face.
• Velma Von Tussle in the Hairspray movie is not only racist, but makes cruel comments to the heroine about her weight. Granted, the movie (and original film) show that lots of people were pretty openly racist during this time period, but it is an extra Kick the Dog for her.
• In The Hand That Rocks the Cradle Peyton calls Solomon a retard.
• Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle has the Jerkass cop, the extreme sports punks, and Harold's lazy womanizing coworkers, who make him do their work because "Asians love crunching numbers".
• Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay tops the previous film with one of the most racist characters in film history: Homeland Security official Ron Fox. He believes every stereotype about every race and religion there is, and will ignore and literally wipe his ass with the rights and freedoms all Americans are given unless you're a white Christian.
• In the Harry Potter universe, Death Eaters are basically the wizard equivalent of the KKK: they are racial supremacists who aim to "purify" the wizarding world by eliminating muggle-born wizards and eventually subjucating other magical and non-magical creatures under pure-blood wizarding rule. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Death Eaters also wear pointed hoods, just to make sure you got the message. This is changed back to a regular hood in the later films, to match the description given in the books.
• The first and third Indiana Jones films. Just to be on the safe side, the first one gives one of its Nazi villains a few antisemitic comments about the Ark of the Covenant.
  • The fifth film gives us a Nazi villain as well - one of Hitler's former scientists who's still trying to restore his empire. As it's now The '60s, it also modernizes by making one of his henchmen an American neo-Nazi.
  • Mola-Ram from the second film also qualifies, an instance of religious prejudice in his case. He's planning to use the power of the Shankara Stones to lead his cult on a crusade around the world, and speaks eagerly of stamping out the Muslim, "Hebrew," and Christian religions.^note Which is even more notable because Thuggee banditry was fairly tolerant by the standards of its time, including both Muslim and Hindu members.
  • All in all, Irina Spalko and her Soviet underlings from the fourth movie are the only villainous faction in the franchise that isn't guided by some sort of racial or religious prejudice. (Not that this stops their plans from being plenty horrifying in their own ways, of course).
• Inglourious Basterds. To make the film's Affably Evil Anti-Villain more palatable, they even introduce him with a speech in which he admits to admiring the Jews, contrary to his Nazi bretheren. The anti heroes occasionally enter into this trope as well, as their disregard for German lives crosses a few lines, too.
• Ingrid Goes West introduces Nicky, who is the first deliberate obstacle on Ingrid's Instagram stalk-quest, by imitating a Chinese man by slanting his eyes and saying "Herro." Ezra mutters about racism as he goes to get another drink.
• The Invitation (2022): Mr. Field and Viktoria are both unpleasant people who make their dislike of Evie known, with disparaging comments about her biracial heritage. He's shown to have maids killed, while she's a murderous vampire. Deville, who's their master, is a vampire as well who Field sends the maids for. He also makes a veiled comment on Evie's heritage, along with snidely saying that modern women are so hard to please as she objects to being his vampire bride.
• Twister in Ip Man 2 established himself by calling Master Hung a "yellow piece of fat" and throughout the movie continues to mock anything Chinese.
• In Island of Death, serial killers Christopher and Celia aren't merely prudish, they're also virulent, murderous homophobes and misogynists.
• It's a Wonderful Life: Henry Potter is a Rich Jerk who calls the "riffraff" of Bedford Falls "a lazy, discontented rabble" whose minds are "filled" with stupid ideas by "starry-eyed dreamers" like the Baileys. When Potter tries to buy George out, he even uses racist epithets against Italian-Americans.
  "A young man — the smartest one in the crowd, mind you — a young man who has to sit by and watch his friends go places because he's trapped. Yes, sir, trapped into frittering his life away, playing nursemaid to a lot of garlic eaters."
• James Bond:
  • Inverted in Moonraker. While the literary Hugo Drax is a Nazi saboteur who wished to destroy England in revenge for the destruction of his homeland, the film removes any references to his Nazi past. Instead, film Drax is an Equal-Opportunity Evil Omnicidal Maniac who has people of different races in high ranks.
  • A View to a Kill: One of the secondary villains, Dr. Carl Mortner. Being a former Nazi qualifies him as this by default, but he takes it to eleven by having run a Super Breeding Program for them during the war with the intention of creating an improved race of humans (the main villain of the movie being a surviving member of those experiments). While Mortner today is only a simple horse breeder in his official identity, he still feels comfortable telling strangers that his selective horse-breeding programs could work equally well with humans.
  • The Living Daylights: While Brad Whitaker never expressed any racist sentiments personally, his pantheon of infamous tyrants includes Nazi dictator Hitler. He describes all of them as "surgeons who cut away society's dead flesh". What's disturbing about these "surgeons" is that they are all sculpted to resemble Whitaker himself.
  • Tomorrow Never Dies: While gloating about his scheme to 007 and Chinese spy Wai Lin, Big Bad Elliot Carver mocks them by making exaggerated karate-chop/kung-fu moves and yelling Kiai.
  • No Time to Die: Dr. Obruchev is a racist Mad Scientist in the employ of Lyutsifer Safin, hoping to use the Heracles nanobots to wipe out Africans right in front of Nomi. Nomi kicks him right over a nanobot-laced Acid Pool. Bad choice of words, Doctor.
• In The Karate Kid Part III, the villain makes Daniel determined enough to continue fighting by calling Mr. Miyagi a "slope".
• Kick-Ass 2: Chris D'Amico gives the founding members of the Toxic Mega Cunts extremely politically incorrect names based on race, nationality, or in one case, shortness.
  Javier: Alright. We got an ex-Triad member, looking for work.
  Chris: Easy! "Genghis Carnage"! Come on!
  Javier: You gotta quit with the racist stereotypes, Chris.
• Kill Bill:
  • Unusual example in the first movie: Boss Tanaka, a member of the yakuza crime council, does not believe that a half-Chinese, American-born woman (O-Ren Ishii) should be the leader of a Japanese criminal syndicate. O-Ren promptly collects his fucking head, explaining that she is willing to take criticism but that any questioning of either her nationality or her ethnic heritage will not be tolerated.
  • O-Ren herself shows bigoted tendencies towards Caucasians, mocking the idea of a "little white girl playing with samurai swords".
  • While mostly an Anti-Villain, Budd doles out his share of this in the second film, referring to Hanzo as a "jap" and making an offhanded remark that he "doesn't Jew out" of paying for his past deeds.
  • Pai Mei, the mentor to the Bride, Elle Driver and Bill. Hates Caucasians, despises Americans and Japanese, and "has nothing but contempt for women". Unfortunately for the Bride, she's a white blonde American woman with a fondness for samurai arts. Of course this woman turns out to be his favourite student, and as such he's the only person he ever taught the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart technique before his death.
• In Kingsman: The Secret Service , the Minister/Pastor at the church where Galahad/Harry was sent to was spewing every conceivable racist, anti-Semitic, misogynist, homophobic, bigoted statement imaginable in his homily. What happens to him and his clergy shortly afterwards is quite horrific.... but not exactly undeserved.
• Arty Clay, who runs The Mafia in King of New York, is a vocally anti-black racist, in stark contrast to the Equal-Opportunity Evil of the title character.
• Knives Out:
  • Ransom smugly calls Meg an "SJW" just for attending college for an unspecified degree rumored to be useless, is rude to and willing to kill the lower-class employee Fran, and says he doesn't want the Latina Marta to inherit his (all white) family's "ancestral home" (which his grandfather only purchased from a Pakistani real estate owner in the 1980s). Ultimately, though, his motivation was based purely on wanting a cut of Harlan's inheritance and making sure that Marta got none of it.
  • Jacob is regularly referred to as an "alt-right troll" and a "Nazi", but ultimately he has nothing to do with the murder.
  • All the living adults in the Thrombey clan have a streak of this, since they clearly don't respect Marta's status as a Hispanic employee with an immigrant mother. Over the course of the film, not only do the Thrombeys call her a little bitch and a dirty anchor baby, despite saying that Marta "is like a member of the family," it's also clear that none of them seem to know which country Marta is actually from. Even if some are less racist about politics themselves (Linda, Walt, Joni).
• Lara Croft: Tomb Raider – The Cradle of Life: Dr. Jonathan Reiss. He has a strong streak of the Omnicidal Maniac in him, but is ultimately closer to a Kill the Poor villain. As his New Era Speech to Lara clarifies, he doesn't actually intend for the Pandora virus to wipe out the entire human race, only most of them. Before releasing it, he wants to produce enough antiserum to protect what he considers to be the best and brightest: "heads of corporation, heads of state."
• In Last Train from Gun Hill, Rick and his friend Lee don't consider what they did to be a big deal, because the woman they raped and killed was "just a squaw".
• In Layer Cake, Jimmy uses the word "darkies" when referring to Jamaicans.
• The Legend of Tarzan: Léon Rom, the envoy of the Belgian monarchy in the Congo Free State that it rules. The film's events are kicked off when Tarzan is recruited by an American abolitionist to help investigate claims that Rom and his government are enslaving the local African tribesmen to build their colonial empire; those claims turn out to be well-founded.^note Truth in Television, unfortunately, as the Congo Free State was considered a horror show even by the standards of the colonial era, which is saying a lot.
• The South African villains in Lethal Weapon 2 are casually racist towards black people, referring to Murtaugh and his family as kaffirs (the African equivalent of the N-word), the main Big Bad complains that there are too many blacks in America's police force, and a member of the South African consulate outright tells Murtaugh that he should not think of going to South Africa because he's black.
• Immortan Joe in Mad Max: Fury Road views his Wives as his property meant only to bear children (specifically sons) to raise as heirs to his corner of the Wasteland. Without children, they're entirely disposable, even his favorite one. If they attempt to escape, there is nothing he won't do to recapture them and lock them away in their Gilded Cage. That's not even getting into the way he uses other women as milk farms.
• The Villain Protagonist in Man Bites Dog, in addition to being a Serial Killer who murders at random, regularly make derogatory comments about blacks, Asian, homosexuals and others. For example, after killing a black night watchman, he says he won't touch him because the "monkeys" have AIDS, and that they often have dogs with them because blacks are closer to nature.
• The Man from U.N.C.L.E.:
  • Played straight with "Uncle Rudi," a former Nazi now working for the main villains. He's less than impressed with his niece's new Soviet boyfriend, for both racial and class reasons.
  Rudi: I know that the equity of aristocratic blood is not appreciated by most communists. But a good German girl knows never to mix the blood of a race horse with that of a cart horse.
  • Downplayed with the Vinciguerras, the main villains. They're never shown expressing any overt prejudices, but they were still Italian Fascists and lead an organization that's still loyal to the Axis cause.
• Marvel Cinematic Universe:
  • Captain America: The First Avenger: Subverted by the Red Skull, who defects from the Nazis because he wants to Take Over the World all for himself, starting with bombing Berlin.
  • The Avengers: As Loki's Hannibal Lecture toward Black Widow gets heated, he punctuates it by calling her a "mewling quim," an archaic British term for a certain female body part.
  • Black Panther (2018):
    • Ulysses Klaue is a possible subversion unlike his comic book counterpart: while he harbors personal hatred of Wakandans and regards them as "savages", he is surprisingly tolerant employing men of African descent and treating Erik Killmonger (an African-American) as an equal partner.
    • Erik "Killmonger" Stevens on the other hand, plays this straight being a black supremacist whose plan involves the genocide and subjugation of non-'black' races. T'Challa doesn't hesitate to point out that this makes him no different from the white racist empires that Africa suffered under. He also blames random white people for crimes committed by their ancestor. Plus, there's a lot of subtext in the way he treats women as he kills his girlfriend when she was held hostage, strangles a female elder who objected to his order, and openly relishes both killing an incapacitated Dora Milaje and the prospect of killing Shuri when she's disarmed.
  • Dreykov the Big Bad from Black Widow (2021) manages to be the single biggest example of this in the MCU, possessing a level of misogyny that would give the Taliban a run for their money. He literally views all women as disposable resources for his own gain, which is why he created the Red Room program (where countless girls of young ages are brutally shaped into assassins and have their uteruses surgically removed) in the first place. And this on top of being a implied rapist and pedophile, given how disturbingly invasive he is with Natasha. Though as Nat points out herself (while laughing off getting beaten up by him), Dreykov is far more pathetic than scary, just being a megalomaniacal old Russian creep with an inferiority complex in the grand scheme of things.
• The Mask of Zorro: The Big Bad, Don Rafael Montero, is an aristocrat and former Spanish colonial governor who deeply believes in his superiority over the peasants he rules; Zorro's Clark Kenting works precisely because, on general principle, he refuses to even look a servant in the eye. He's also a chauvinist, dismissing his daughter's more populist worldview as "a woman's grasp of politics" (to her face and in front of a room full of guests).
  • The Legend of Zorro: The sequel's Big Bad isn't nearly as in-your-face, but The Dragon more than makes up for it. Jacob MacGivens is a Christian fundamentalist militia leader with a strong racial loathing for the Mexican Catholics that make up most of southern California's population, who's fond of misquoting or straight-up inventing Bible verses to vindicate his worldview. The Batman Cold Open has him trying to steal the box of ballots they've just cast in favor of U.S. statehood, while the rest of the movie has him aligning with proto-Confederate secessionists and the villain's aristocratic secret society in their plot to start a civil war and bring down the United States.
    Jacob MacGivens: You remember that Babylon was condemned to ashes for extending its empire to inferior races!^note While parts of the Bible undoubtedly would count as "politically incorrect" by today's standards, this particular claim has no scriptural basis whatsoever. For extra points in irony, the Babylonians were a semitic nation based in modern-day Iraq, who would almost certainly be considered an "inferior race" themselves by the standards of a modern WASP supremacist.
• Mean Girls: Regina George very casually uses the word "retarded" as an insult on various occasions. There's also her labelling Janis as a lesbian and ruining her reputation over it.
• Mean Streets: Middle-Management Mook Giovanni is awful to Teresa because she has epilepsy.
• Men in Black: Crossing over with Fantastic Racism, the Bug spends the entire movie expressing a revulsion for human beings that's as intense and deep-seated as most humans' revulsion for, well, bugs. Offhand comments by both him and Agent K suggest that this is because Bugs as a species are pretty universally looked down on in the wider galaxy, so he's thrilled to have found a species whose status is even lower than his.
• The racist white cops in Men in Black 3 who pull over Agent J on the assumption that he, a black man, stole the flashy car he was driving at the time (which he actually did out of necessity). Justified in that it's a Time Travel plot and the black J has been plunked into The '60s—right in the middle of the Civil Rights Movement. Leads to this hilarious exchange:
  Agent J: And just because you see a black man, driving a nice car, does not mean it's stolen! *beat* I stole that one... but not because I'm black!
• Mirror, Mirror: All "uglies" (dwarfs and presumably other people with an obvious deformity or disability) were banished from the realm by the Queen (given her own obsession with physical beauty, it makes sense).
• The antagonists in Mississippi Burning, set in the Deep South in 1964 during the height of the civil rights movement.
• Mitchell starts out with John Saxon's character murdering an unarmed minority burglar, then planting a gun on the body in order to claim self-defense. When the police shows up, he tosses out a "wetback" comment for good measure.
• Harry Powell of The Night of the Hunter is a deeply religious man... who believes that God's a misogynist who wants him to marry and murder women and that the money he gets from doing this is God's way of providing for him to continue preaching and enacting his holy work of misogynistic serial murder. Among many other troubling aspects, his opening monologue in the film includes a lament that he can't actually kill every woman in the world.
• A Nightmare on Elm Street's Freddy Krueger is shown with a massive misogyny streak. Freddy vs. Jason gives him racism as well, calling Kia, an African-American girl (and herself a Politically Incorrect Hero^note in the same scene, she later calls Freddy a "faggot in a Christmas sweater."), "dark meat".
• Nurse Betty:
  • Dale, who is involved in the drug trade, makes a derisive comment about alcoholic Native Americans.
  • Hitman Charlie insists that his favorite TV character "ain't no dyke."
• O Brother, Where Art Thou? has a subplot about Mississippi's incumbent governor, Menelaus "Pappy" O'Daniel, who is trailing in the polls to upstart Homer Stokes in an upcoming election. For most of the movie, we don't see much of Stokes, knowing only that Pappy is a raging asshole. When Stokes is revealed to be the head of the local chapter of The Klan and gives a rant about protecting white women "from darkies, from Jews, from papists, and from all those smart-ass folks say we come descended from monkeys", we know right away whom to root for. Big Dan Teague, an incidental villain from earlier in the movie, is also revealed to be a Klansman in the same scene.
• In Odds Against Tomorrow, Slater is a racist thug who dislikes the idea of being partnered on a job with a black man, and takes every opportunity to needle, harass and belittle Ingram.
• Operation Delta Force: Not only are the film's villains terrorists, but they are also White Supremacist terrorists. Their leader, the ruthless Colonel Johann Nash, even repeatedly mocks the African-American protagonist Tipton (played by Ernie Hudson).
• The Peacemaker: In addition to being crass, rude, treasonous, murderous, and willing to sell nuclear weapons to the highest bidder, General Kodoroff also loathes the lower classes:
  Kodoroff: Fucking refugees. Azerbaijanis, Georgians, Kazakhs...
  Mirich: Well, don't curse them.
  Kodoroff: I don't care whose bitch gave birth to them. Muslim, Serb... I hate them because they are poor.
• Phantom of the Paradise: Swan is meant to represent the worst parts of the music industry, so he is of course shown using sex and drugs to control his performers (not to mention special contracts). He plagiarizes material from Winslow and has him arrested, framed and humiliated to try to break him when Winslow keeps seeking credit. When Winslow sneaks into Swannage disguised as a groupie to try to get close enough to talk to Swan, Swan's response is "Get this faggot out of here". Swan's assistant Philbin is shown to be easily as vile, if of much less grand vision.
• The Postman: The Holnists, being built on a rather reactionary foundation, refuse to conscript people with African or Asian ancestry. However, a mixed-race man is also conscripted, which only one Holnist notices (while calling the man a slur), claiming General Bethlehem didn't recognize his African ancestry.
• The Princess (2022): Not only does Julius get offended that the Princess refuses to Stay in the Kitchen - indeed he seems more upset that she's rude then that she's massacring his guards - he also cites the Asian and African 'outsiders' in the kingdom as another sign of weakness. He also sneers at the king ruling with compassion, feeling a true ruler must be brutal.
• Punisher: War Zone sees crime boss Gaitano Cesare call some people "the ragheads in Queens" when he finds out that his nephew, Billy Russoti, is shipping in a biological agent for a Russian crime boss. Once Russoti becomes the movie's main villain, Jigsaw, he himself uses the same exact term in dealing with Cristu Bulat when discussing where it's going.
• The Quiet: Nina and her friends all make cruel jokes about Dot's disabilities, while also claiming she's mentally disabled too, for no reason but to pick on her. Initially, they're the antagonists.
• The villain of Red Eye makes misogynistic comments throughout the film.
• Renfield (2023): The Lobos apparently hire the services of a bulky assassin known as "Apache Joe". This is a White man referring to himself in a name from a Native American tribe, but to quote Teddy Lobo:
  "He cuts out people's tongues with a hunting knife. You tell him his nickname is racist!"
• The Retreat (2021): The antagonists are violent homophobes who kidnap and murder gays or lesbians, streaming it for homophobic viewers online.
• Retroactive: The homicidal Frank makes several derogatory remarks about foreigners, Mexicans in particular.
• Rhymes for Young Ghouls: Popper, who is blatantly racist and abusive toward First Nations people.
• The antagonists in Roadracers frequently harass Donna about being Mexican.
• RoboCop:
  • RoboCop (1987) has Clarence Boddicker and his gang. Emil Antonowsky makes a joke about prison rape and Joe Cox calls Emil a homophobic slur twice. Boddicker himself expresses sexism (he infamously says to two hookers "Bitches, leave.") and later uses a racial slur against an Italian gangster. A close look at Boddicker's police record also shows he has been charged with statutory rape in the past.
  • McDaggett in RoboCop 3 is not obviously racist, but still a Social Darwinist Colonel Kilgore who enjoys slaughtering the worthless gutter trash of Detroit to make room for Delta City.
• The villains of Savaged are, to the man, evil rednecks who constantly call Native Americans " savages" or "gut-eaters," actively attempt to kill all the ones living in their area, and speculate that The Protagonist is colourblind for being a white woman and dating a black man.
• In the 1983 remake of Scarface, Tony Montana doesn't like working alongside Colombians. What's hilariously hypocritical is that Tony Montana, played by Al Pacino (most famous for portraying Michael Corleone in The Godfather), rejecting a suggestion by Manny to work with The Mafia, on the entirely racist basis that he doesn't trust Italians. He also uses the slur "macron" (faggot).
• Even for a Confederate officer, Captain Harris in The Scavengers is beyond the pale. He is motivated solely by hatred for the black race; always refers to Negroes as "it" rather than by their name (or even "he" or "she"); thinks blacks are naturally cannibals; and will not stop until all Negroes in America are killed or in chains.
• Richard Nixon in Secret Honor, which is sadly Truth in Television. He drops every ethnic and racial slur under the sun, and expresses virulently misogynistic views as well.
• Walter Wade Jr. (played by Christian Bale) in Shaft (2000). He's a white supremacist who harasses a black man at a restaurant, and later kills him because the guy successfully dissed him.
• The Shining: where Grady tells Jack that the Magical Negro that helps the family is "a nigger". Unlike his book counterpart, Jack here casually parrots the term, which suggests he's a racist as well.
• In Silver Streak, we already know who the bad-guy is,^note “Ever since that plane crash in Cologne, Germany, when you caused a hundred people to die just to cover up your link with the scandal at the Metropolitan Gallery.” but we really start hating him when he angrily calls Richard Pryor's character (who was disguised as a waiter) a "stupid nigger."
• Sling Blade gives us Doyle Hargraves, the film's antagonist. He's a misogynist (he's a domestic abuser and treats Linda like a piece of ass most of the time), a Child Hater (Linda has a boy named Frank who Doyle treats even worse than Linda), a homophobe (Linda's boss Vaughan is gay, and Doyle calls him "pussy", "fag", "cocksucker" and [Linda's] "girlfriend"), and ableist (the protagonist, Karl, is mentally disabled and Doyle insults him by calling him a "humped-over retard". Also one of Doyle's band members, Terrence, is wheelchair-bound. Doyle calls him "cripple" and assaults him during a drunken meltdown).
• Sleepers:
  • If you didn’t think Nokes being a rapist and abusive scumbag was bad enough, then let it be known he's also very racist. He calls a fellow guard who is black and appears to be in his mid-to-late 40s a “boy” just for telling him that it’s time for them to switch shifts and for ruining his blatant abuse of power towards the boys in the lunchroom. Moreover, during the coin toss before the Football game, he calls Rizzo “sambo”.
  • Also, considering the rest of the guards helped Nokes beat Rizzo to death, this trope could also apply to them as well^note the four sleepers are white and were also tortured, but ultimately left alive.
• Smokey and the Bandit: Buford T. Justice's reaction to finding out the sheriff he's been speaking to on the radio is black is a sight to behold. A fairly mild example, but he stands out given that the movie, set in the Deep South and released barely a decade after desegregation, makes a point of having most of its characters fairly free of prejudice.
  Buford: Hey boy! Where's Sheriff Branford?
  Branford: I am Sheriff Branford.
  Buford: Oh. OK. Hell, for some reason or another, you sounded a little taller on radio! [turns to his son] What in the hell is the world coming to?
• In Snatch., the fence Avi continually refers to Boris as a "Cossack." Then again, Avi is Jewish, and the Russians did conduct anti-Jewish pogroms, but Boris himself isn't even Russian, he's an Uzbek.
• In Sneakers, Mother and Crease get caught off-guard by a couple of Mooks. One of the Mooks orders Mother out of the van, then looks over at Crease (played by Sidney Poitier) and says "You too, midnight." The audience suddenly becomes very invested in seeing this nameless, faceless character get his ass kicked. Which makes his eventual decapitation by train less disturbing than it could have been.
• Special Female Force: Dark Action Girl Tung Zi calls the Tank-Top Tomboy Ho a "dyke" during their fight and asks her not to flirt with her. Ho is unimpressed.
• In Spider-Man, Norman Osborn aka Green Goblin is deeply misogynistic, just like his comics version. Just see the Thanksgiving dinner scene, where he gives poor MJ a gross leer and then after storming out upon realising Peter is Spider-Man, delivers this tirade to Harry about his then-girlfriend.

  Norman: Harry, please. Look at her. Do you think a woman like that is sniffing around because she likes your personality?
  Harry: What are you saying?
  Norman: Your mother was beautiful too. They're all beautiful until they're snarling after your trust fund like a pack of ravening wolves.
  Harry: You're wrong about her, Dad.
  Norman: A word to the not-so-wise about your little girlfriend: Do what you need to with her, then broom her fast.

  • It’s important to note Norman, while still a jerk, wasn’t this awful before taking the Goblin formula, which exacerbated his worst qualities to the extreme.
• It doesn't play a part in the plot, but in Stand by Me, Ace seems to associate female sexuality with religion. When Jack complains that he can't get to second base with his girlfriend (even though he's only been seeing her for "just over a month" and she'll "only" let him fondle her breasts), Ace tells him, "She's a Catholic, man. They're all like that. If you wanna get laid, you gotta get yourself a Protestant."
• Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country: The movie is largely an extended metaphor for the end of the Cold War, with the Klingon Empire suing for peace with the Federation: this does not sit well with everybody on either side of the border, leading to a conspiracy by people on both sides to keep the war going. While some of this is motivated by self-interest, a great deal of their motivation is rooted in pure prejudice: the film even intentionally uses phrases associated with American white supremacism, as when Admiral Cartwright says the Federation would be better off "bringing the Klingons to their knees"^note a phrase lifted from pro-Ku-Klux-Klan movie The Birth of a Nation (1915). Should be noted that this is in no way limited to the villains, as the heroes struggle throughout the film with their realization of how much their own attitudes towards the Klingons are rooted in pure prejudice. The difference is that they do struggle to overcome them.
• M. Bison in Street Fighter, especially with his "I know women and you are harmless" remark towards Chun-Li. Bad idea. He also makes fun of the one-eyed Sagat with an "I guess you didn't SEE that, did you?"
• In The Substitute 4: Failure Is Not An Option, Karl Thomasson goes to a Military Academy to dismantle a white supremacist cult that is secretly run by the commanding officer.
• Sudden Impact: In addition to Mick's gleeful enjoyment of rape, he shows himself to be both a racist (as shown by his use of a racial slur to Horace when he enters Harry's apartment), and an ableist by using slurs against Albert Jannings. Earlier, he also gets Albert to join in with the rape by asking whether he's a "fag" and implies this will prove he isn't.
• In Superman II, Zod's companion Ursa is misandric, hating men and taking sadistic pleasure murdering them (but she makes an exception for Zod and Non). Of course, she is insane.
• Suspect:
  • Michael, who calls Kathleen's black process server a "black devil" while mentioning him to her after he assaulted him with a straight razor.
  • Also Matthew Helms to a lesser degree, as he appears to be a conservative Republican in favor of capital punishment (ironically, given that he's a murderer himself).
• Upon being introduced to a female SWAT officer, Gamble, the villain of S.W.A.T. (2003), says (rather nonsensically) "I didn't know they made bulletproof bras."
• Sweetwater: "Prophet" Josiah. He's not only a polygamist (implied to be a Mormon who had splintered off to form his own sect), but also a blatant racist who says not only are mixed racial marriages wrong (standard opinion at the time) but that those in them should die, and previously tells Sarah once he rapes her that this "purified" her from the sin of being with her Mexican husband.
• Tales from the Hood: Duke Metzger is a slimy white supremacist politician who moves into the slavery-era mansion that belonged to his grandfather, a slave owner who had all his slaves massacred at the end of the Civil War. The spirits of the slaves, contained in a puppet army, proceed to torment Metzger.
• Tales from the Hood 2 Mr. Beach. He hits on his subordinates (who quietly accept the sexual harassment), believes rapists should pay heavily, but still maintains a "boys will be boys" attitude, talks about how Simms' "people" have a predilection for crime, and even calls Mr. Simms the N-word in the closing segment.
  • Similarly reflected with Mr. Cotton, the Republican gubernatorial candidate who jokes about how Henry would have been serving the party instead of hosting it in the good old days.
• There's Something About Mary has a toe-curling exchange with Matt Dillon's character obliviously causing offense when trying to impress Mary. We already know he's a conniving bad guy, this nails down the fact that he's a self-serving idiot with the empathy of half a brick in a sock to boot.
• They/Them (2020): Dominique, the one responsible for the tirade against Ash (a nonbinary person), is incredibly intolerant of trans people. She regularly deadnames and misgenders Ash, calls them transphobic slurs, tells them they don't belong at their school, and embarrasses Ash in biology class when a teacher fails to mention chromosome variants other than XX and XY (leading to Dominique saying that intersex people don't exist).
• They/Them (2022): Owen, and by extention all of the staff except Molly, are involved with trying to "convert" LGBT+ youth, with him in particular shown as having very queerphobic, hyper-masculine beliefs.
• Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead: The Man With The Plan is the Big Bad who rants against gays early on, using slurs. He also used racial slurs when speaking about black people later, though without animus.
• The Thing with Two Heads has Dr. Maxwell Kirshner, a racist character that hates Black people, much for the irony, his head is attached to an African American.
• In Tombstone, Behan helpfully announces that he's the founder of the Anti-Chinese League to let the audience know not to sympathize with him. This was Truth in Television, and sadly actually would have been a position of honor.
• Several villains in the Toxic Avenger film series are bigoted in some way or another.
  • The Toxic Avenger
    • When Julie reminds Bozo of the targets they like to run over while driving, she uses racial slurs such as "niggers" and "chinks".
    • The gang leader Cigar Face refers to the police as "faggots" and calls Toxie a "monster faggot".
  • Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV
    • Toxie's evil double the Noxious Offender, also addressed as "Noxie", at one point kills two men while calling them "Faggot #1" and "Faggot #2".
    • While in Tromaville's evil alternate universe equivalent Amortville, Toxie at one point encounters a pair of rednecks dragging a black man across the road until he's reduced to a head. One of them runs away, but Toxie makes the one remaining pay by making him up to look like a black man and handing him over to a group of Klansmen, who promptly start hanging him.
    • Sgt. Kazinski and the Diaper Mafia attempted to bomb the Tromaville School for the Very Special in the beginning of the film and also make several ableist statements such as "Fuck the fucking tards!" He even has a Hitler stache!
• In Trading Places, the Eddie Murphy character overhears the Dukes comment how they can't "have a nigger run our family business". Before that, you could see the Dukes as affably dotty. That reveal tells the audience that the Dukes deserve whatever they get (impoverishment, and in one case, a life-threatening heart attack).
  • What makes it even worse is that this whole thing started as a Nature vs. Nurture bet, with Mortimer as Nature, and Randolph as Nurture. Yet even despite believing in nurture over nature, Randolph agrees with Mortimer that he doesn't want a Black man in their brokerage.
• True Lies: Salim Abu Azir's Establishing Character Moment involves slapping a woman twice and calling her a whore in the middle of an ass-chewing. Given that she's his hired contractor, doubles as Bad Boss.
• In True Romance, Dennis Hopper's character, knowing that The Mafia plans to torture him to death, preys on their politically incorrect nature, telling them that Sicilians are descended from blacks (which is not the word he uses). This provokes their leader into killing him immediately.
• In Trumbo, gossip columnist Hedda Hopper calls MGM executive Louis B. Mayer a "kike." a derogatory term for Jew, and blackmails the industry for the fact that some studio chiefs were Jewish, and changed their names to fit in. It was (and occasionally still is) the case amongst certain right-wingers that "Jew" and "Communist" are essentially synonyms.
• In Valdez is Coming, Tanner and his crew casually throw around terms like 'nigger', 'coon' and 'greaser'. Tanner also uses a church for target practice, showing him to be sacrilegious as well.
• In Vanishing Point (1971), Deputy Charlie Scott uses both 'faggot' and 'nigger', the latter being a worse example because he directs this slur towards a blind and black radio DJ that he and a group of his peers have come to beat up.
• V for Vendetta: Norsefire. All of Norsefire. They're violent homophobes and Islamophobes who quite clearly espouse neo-fascism.
• In Whiplash, Terence Fletcher teaches his music students in the most hostile way possible, often by belittling their appearances or personal histories. Throughout the film, he refers to Andrew Neyman (the main character) as a homosexual or little girl (when Andrew is neither) as a form of antagonization.
• One of several reasons why the Wild Wild West film was poorly rated is that the somewhat likable Loveless of the television series was transformed into a racist bigot who is constantly making racial slurs and jokes against Will Smith's Jim West. (Of course, Loveless is a former slave-owner in Reconstruction-era America, and his attitude wasn't all that much worse than some real ones.) Also troubling is that the original Loveless was a dwarf and this one is an amputee, the subject for West's slurs against him. Lots of Dude, Not Funny! on both sides.
• X-Men Film Series
  • In The Wolverine, the Japanese Shingen and his mooks hate mutants, and they also harass Logan for being white.
  • Dr. Zander Rice from Logan considers the mutant children he had enslaved as "things" and shouldn't be treated as people. In one scene, he has Pierce break up a birthday party the nurses were throwing for one of the mutant children.
    Rice: We do not dress them up for Halloween. We do not call them baby or kiss boo-boos. Don't think of them as children. Think of them as things, with patents and copyrights. Comprende?
  • Deadpool 2:
    • Parodied when Wade accuses Cable of being racist because he killed Black Tom Cassidy. Tom was very clearly white, as was Cable. Wade presumably realized this.
    • Played straight with The Juggernaut, who calls Colossus (a Russian) a "Commie motherfucker" during their fight.
    • Also played straight with the Orphanage Headmaster, who considers mutants abominations of mankind. After he is rescued from Russell's Roaring Rampage of Revenge by Deadpool and the others, he continues to make prejudiced towards them... right before getting unceremoniously run over by Dopinder.
      Headmaster: All you dirty mutants are gonna rot in hell with the boy! Your souls are beyond redemption! ...The day of reckoning is here!
