Thrax (Osmosis Jones)

"Ebola is a case of dandruff compared to me!" - Thrax

Thrax is the main villain in the live action/animated movie Osmosis Jones. He is an extremely virulent, one-of-a-kind virus, whose goal is life is to kill all his targets faster than the previous one, to make sure that history would remember him as the deadliest virus ever. (His name is a pun on the word Anthrax.)

At the beginning of the movie, Thrax enters the body of Frank, a widower without the slightest regard for hygiene and health, when he eats an egg that fell on a muddy floor. He then enters Frank City, a city inside Frank's body where all his body cells are living a life identical to that of humans. Thrax quickly takes control of the many gangs of bacteria already presents and plans to take profit of Frank's poor health condition to operate undetected.

Osmosis Jones, one of Franks white blood cells who acts as an elite police officer, and a cold pill named Drix soon discover that something dangerous is going on, but the dishonest mayor Phlegmmings dismisses their warnings, going as far as refusing to acknowledge Thrax as a serious threat when he can no longer ignore his existence.

Jones and Drix are ordered to cease their investigations, but they eventually disobey and manage to to track down Thrax, as the super virus has sneaked into the hypotalamus and stole a DNA bead, causing Frank's body temperature to increase without end and seriously threatening his life. Jones and Drix manage to pursue Thrax outside of Frank's body (who has been admitted in a hospital) and engage a fight to get back the DNA bead.

Thrax ultimately dies by falling into a bottle of rubbing alcohol, as he was about to enter the body of Frank's daughter. Frank is then saved in extremis and the cells inside him make him adopt a healthier lifestyle.
