This villain was proposed but was rejected by the community for not being heinous enough or lacks what is necessary to be a Pure Evil villain. Therefore, this villain shall be added to our "Never Again List", where proposed villains rejected by the community shall be placed to prevent future proposals of the same evil-doer. They can be proposed again (with the permission of an administrator) if new elements appear in their series that can change their status as non-PE villains. Any act of adding this villain to the Pure Evil category without a proposal or creating a proposal for this villain without the permission of an administrator will result in a ban. |

Biography[]
Past[]
Dennis Fulcher is a film director, who has directed an unknown amount of snuff movies during the 1970s.
The Devil of Christmas[]
Dennis begins to direct his latest snuff film, which he initially makes out to be a made for television movie The Devil of Christmas, with the actors being unaware of what they are actually involved in. Only a select amount of crew members are in on Dennis's true motivations for the production. He films the movie over the course of a day, and dismisses each actor from the set after they finish filming their scenes. The last remaining cast member is the female lead, who Dennis has had handcuffed to a bed as part of a mock final scene in which her character is killed off. However, to her horror and confusion, Dennis adds on an extra scene cut from the script, which involves her being gagged and later decapitated by an actor working for him dressed up as Krampus.
Arrest and Interview[]
Decades later, Dennis's snuff films are later uncovered and he is arrested by the police. He watches The Devil of Christmas with a police officer providing the interrogation and gives him information on the making of the production, almost in the same way a director would provide a commentary for a normal movie. It is presumed that following the completion of watching the film Dennis was charged and found guilty of murder, and perhaps other undisclosed killings that he committed during his snuff film career.

Trivia[]

This is part of a recurring element in the Inside No. 9 series in which a twist is normally added to each story.
