User blog:Panzysoldat/PE Proposal - Terry Simmons

So, after watching Blood Rage, I think Terry fits the title of PE well.

What's the Work?
Blood Rage is a 1987 slasher film about twin brothers, with one being a psychopath, while the other is a traumatized mental patient. Guess which one is which? Anyways, ten years after getting locked up, the mental patient twin escapes the hospital and plans to go home to clear his name. Meanwhile, the psychopath goes on a killing spree, while trying to pin it all on his brother.

Who is He?
Terry Simmons is the twin brother of Todd Simmons. He is a sadistic psychopath with a perverse obsession for his mother and has a twisted sense of humor.

What Has He Done?
In 1974, Terry and Todd were at a drive-in movie with their mother and her new boyfriend. Thinking the boys were sleeping, the mother and boyfriend were getting frisky. The brothers woke up and slipped out of the car to look for something to do. Terry finds a hatchet and sees a couple having sex in the backseat of a car. He watches through the window, and when the guy notices him, Terry axes him in the face like four times. Realizing the crowd drawing near, Terry puts the hatchet in his traumatized brother's hand and rubs blood on him, framing him and getting him sent to a mental institution.

Ten years after the incident, Todd escapes the institution and travels home to clear his name. Realizing this, Terry starts killing off his friends and neighbors while framing Todd as the madman. He starts off the killing spree by murdering his mom's new boyfriend. He does this by chopping off his hand and then chopping through his head with a machete. Afterwards, he attacks Todd's doctor and her assistant who were out looking in the forest. (He stabs the assistant to death and slices the doctor in half.) Before going out with his friends, he changes his bloody shirt.

Terry goes to an apartment where his neighbor Andrea is babysitting. Andrea starts getting frisky with Terry, but before anything can come of it, the parents come home. They leave, but Terry returns and rings the doorbell. The husband answers and Terry decapitates him and leaves his head hung from the stairs outside. The wife finds her husband's head and Terry kills her as well. Later, two of Terry's friends decide to have sex on the diving board at the pool. Terry interrupts them and kills them both, storing their bodies in the sauna.

One of Terry's friends named Brad gets in his car and Todd holds him up with a gun and tells him that Terry is the one who's crazy. Together Brad and Todd show up at the house where Terry and Karen are at. Terry answers the door, but Todd find that he's too scared to shoot him and runs off. Brad and Terry give chase to Todd and find a bag full of weapons out on the terrace, including the bloody machete. With his back turned, Terry stabs Brad with a carving fork. Karen shows up and sees Terry with the bloody machete and realizes that he really is the crazy one.

Karen runs for her life, discovering all of Terry's carnage and rescues the baby from that one apartment. Eventually, she ends up at the pool, where Todd is and Todd is still too scared to pull the trigger. With Todd in shock, Terry tries to put the machete in Todd's hand and rub blood on him, but Todd finally fights back and the two fall into the pool. Terry nearly kills his brother and the two swim to the opposite ends of the pool. As Terry picks up the bloody machete, his mother (after discovering her boyfriend's corpse) shoots him 4-5 times with a revolver and he falls into the pool, ending his reign of terror once and for all.

Unfortunately, the mother mistook Terry for Todd and upon realizing her mistake, shoots herself in the head. Karen walks off, and Todd bangs his head against the wall repeating "I am not Terry!" over and over again as police sirens can be heard in the background. Todd's fate is unknown, though it is likely that he was blamed for the murders.

So, let's see.


 * Murders 9 people.
 * Successfully framed his twin brother, by taking advantage of his trauma.
 * Tried to frame him again for more murders.
 * Does it all with sadistic glee.

Heinous Standards
He's the only villain of the movie.

Mitigating Factors
None, really. Unless, you count his love for his mother, which could easily be dismissed as obsession. Unlike Todd, who carried her to bed when she passed out on the floor.

Verdict
I'm never very good at verdicts. I'll let you decide.
