* ''Film/{{Night of the Hunted}}'' (2023): [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain The Sniper]] is a sadistic and misogynist [[RightWingMilitiaFanatic conspiracy theorist]] who stalks Alice for seemingly no reason other than wanting to. Setting up on a billboard across a desolate gas station, the sniper murders the cashier clerk and Alice's affair partner John before he sadistically toys and taunts Alice through a radio as he fires at her, spending hours raving misogynistic and patriotic rants as he attempts to kill her, giving the woman [[HopeSpot false hope]] before ripping it away each time. Killing any help that arrives to try and save her, the sniper kills an elderly couple stopping for gas, making their suffering last as he coldly kills them, before he attempts to have Alice [[SadisticChoice decide]] to either have herself be killed or the elderly couple's granddaughter murdered, before he decides to go down and kill them himself. A PsychopathicManchild who has multiple reasons on why he could be like this, in which all are debunked, the sniper is a hateful coward who simply hates the state of the world and wishes to be left alone to do what he wants.

** ''Film/TheGirlWithTheDragonTattoo2011'': Much as in the original novel, these members of the Vanger clan are utterly depraved:
*** [[FauxAffablyEvil Martin Vanger]] is a polite, charming CEO who uses his position in society to cover up the fact that he is a SerialKiller and rapist of women, kidnapping them and spending days raping and torturing them before ending their lives. Martin has been committing his atrocities for decades, and his victim count handily reaches into the hundreds. Even worse is the reveal that Martin was raised to be a killer by his equally repulsive father, Gottfried, and though potentially tragic, it is made explicitly clear that Martin just enjoys raping and killing, made all the more obvious by turning [[VillainousIncest his own sister]] into his personal sex and torture slave after his father is out of the picture. Martin tries to subject Mikael Blomkvist to the same torments of his previous victims in the end, and simply excuses his crimes by proclaiming it is his hobby and he is living a "complete life".
*** [[SerialKiller Gottfried Vanger]] is a fanatical [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain Nazi]] with an obsession for mimicking and mocking the Bible. Gottfried murdered more than 6 women in horrific ways [[ThemeSerialKiller resembling punishments from the Book of Leviticus]], always subjecting them to brutal rape and torture beforehand. Be it by bashing their skulls in or raping them to death with farming tools, Gottfried perpetrated his acts with zeal, and took his own personal sadism to such a level that he [[AbusiveParents sexually abused his own son and daughter]], helping the former--Martin--realize his love for killing while turning the latter--Harriet--into his toy to be tortured until he finally tired of this and attempted to [[OffingTheOffspring murder her]].
** ''Film/TheGirlInTheSpidersWeb'': [[PsychoForHire Jan Holtsen]], once a subordinate of Lisbeth Salander's HumanTrafficking, mass murdering father Zalachenko, is now [[TheDragon the right hand]] of her twin sister Camilla. [[TortureTechnician Mutilating and torturing]] anyone who gets on his bad side, Holtsen murders a programmer who created Firefall, which gives access to the world's nuclear codes. Leading further death and torture, Holtsen plans to deliver it to Camilla to burn the world for his own advancement, and happily tortures Mikael Blomqvist for the end result.
