He was much darker than the initial showing of the Second Death. The passing of Héctor's old friend is a serene thing. Ernesto's murder is accompanied by a sinister score fit for a horror film, and it plays an even more tense reprise when we get a zoom-in of his manic expression as he's about to murder a child. He had moments that were more in line with the classic climax antagonist, but keep in mind that until he is disclosed as the threat, the biggest concern is getting sent home with bummer conditions. Ernesto is one monstrous man who tore the family apart and caused all the most mature conflicts of the film.
