* ''Film/SometimesInApril'': [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain Colonel Théoneste Bagosora]] is one of the orchestrators of the Rwandan genocide and the leader of both the regular [[ArmiesAreEvil FAR]] and [[StateSec Interahamwe]] paramilitary, collectively called the Génocidaires. Setting up death squads to assassinate Tutsi even before the genocide is ignited, Bagosora happily goes along with the coup and oversees the manufacturing of weapons, distributing them across Rwanda to be used in a wave of RapePillageAndBurn against Tutsi, especially [[MacheteMayhem machetes]] that he imported from China; mockingly asking the benevolent Captain Augustin Muganza if he has "problem with it"; and using radio broadcasts to spread his hate and motivate even more people into participating in the genocide, culminating in countless massacres countrywide.

* ''Series/{{Psych}}: The Movie'': [[BigBad Allison Cowley]] is the [[BastardUnderstudy apprentice]] of Mr. Yin. In her first appearance in the season 5 finale, she passed herself off as a helpless victim of Yin to Shawn, only to lure them into one of Yin's traps. Beaten by Juliet, Cowley returns for revenge in the movie, and proves that even without her mentor's influence she can still be just as monstrous. Ordering her men to [[CopKiller gun down Juliet's partner]], Cowley later kidnaps Chief Vick's teenage daughter to lure the heroes to Alcatraz. When she reveals herself to the Psych crew, she coldly shoots her right-hand man dead, claiming that [[DisproportionateRetribution his accent was getting on her nerves]]. Telling the gang that she has strapped a bomb to Vick's daughter that will go off in twenty minutes and kill them all unless they find it, Cowley orders her remaining minions to kill the heroes as slowly as possible before finally getting her rematch with Juliet. Unapologetically psychotic and willing to hurt others just to spite her rival, Cowley managed to [[KnightOfCerebus darken the tone]] of the show with each appearance she made.
