I absolutely have to go with “John Ryder” from The Hitcher.
(only talking about its 2007 Remake with Sean Bean. Not the original 1986 film with Rutger Hauer).
While I have seen the original 1986 film, I only saw the 2007 Remake first before watching the original. John Ryder’s death in the end was deserved, for all the things he’s done in the film. From stalking and tormenting Jim Halsey and Grace Andrews, from completely killing the entire policemen during Jim and Grace’s police chase, from tearing Jim Halsey in half with the two trucks (while in the original it’s actually swapped to his lover being the one torn in half, instead of Jim), and then at the end, he escapes the cop van so he wouldn’t be transported but is stopped by Grace with a shotgun and is killed off with one bullet to the face at the end. Even his final words was awesome enough.
”Feels good doesn’t it?” -John Ryder
”I don’t feel a thing.” -Grace Andrews
While I do love the original film, the remake was a much more better film in my opinion.
