1. I personally find Parker one of the horror villains that stands out in a unique and disturbing way even for the genre. He's a character who gives off an intimidating feel yet completely plausible since he lacks any supernatural elements while giving nothing that can even be argued as redeeming with even his excuse being basically little more than a throwaway line. At least with Scream most either are insane, have a supposed excuse or some humanity visible. I agree on the torture it truly depends on the depravity and crime of the individual plus I don't find that self-righteous since I'd probably shoot him as well vs prison. I like how your story does a good deconstruction of her and the choices made.

2. I definitely liked Blight and thought he was an entertaining villain who wanted a buisness take over vs some "destroy the city or rule it". Once in a while it's good for simply a greedy villain over the other types. On ranking I admit hard but I'd probably say he's my fifth or sixth. Blight does fit some what Toxocara, Azoth Saul Thorn and possibly a bit of Douglas as all are greedy to a degree desiring more and more though with power and all are more serious to an extent.

3. I'm glad I could tell you of a version you might like, I do think the switch of the child and Bradley fit more. In the older version it came across "Pride" was Father's favorite and hid behind a look of innocence so he could lure victims in and make them feel so much smaller. The changes were mainly because the original anime eventually caught up to the then incomplete manga and decided to go its own route ending up with different characters. With Gluttony he doesn't change much though the bond of both versions with Lust seemingly increased to the point he is depressed and had his personality forcibly erased to serve Dante again. Basically Father treated the sins as tools and killed or abandoned any who failed even leaving of of his "children" to die when he could of helped them easily, ultimately both he and Dante are vile but Father was more powerful and fought. I would of personally loved a crossover as it could of been a blast.

4. I personally felt Joel was a realistic father with his actions basically "OK so you want to sacrifice a woman I love like a daughter for a chance of a vaccine for strangers? Screw that, I won't let you!". Marlene does seem to care for Ellie to some extent and hate it but deems it necessary to try even claiming Ellie would probably prefer it (hinted by creators Ellie is mad at Joel for lying about them giving up on the vaccine later and taking the choice). Apparently Marlene was dubbed the less selfish and a little too controversial here but I definitely prefer Joel's outlook plus consider his past he has every reason to be cynical and somewhat misanthropic.

5. That's interesting to hear, thanks bud. :) Interesting to see how much can br changed from one adaptation to another whether the choice being for the better or worse. Yeah Facilier would be lucky in that kind of situation and might be better to kill himself over letting novel Kerchak get his hands on him. I haven't thought of it but I'll definitely consider making someone similar in Xylus' story if and/or when I get to writing it, definitely could be interesting to see Richard need to confront a cruel gorilla and could explain why some might respect him if he succeeds.
