Venter is a ruthless and cold-blooded PMN soldier who is authorized by his superior Piet Smit to capture the latter's son-in-law Wikus Van De Merwe, a bureaucrat of the Multinational United company who became exposed to a strange black fluid that begun his slow and abnormal transformation into a Prawn - the alien species living in the shantytown called District 9 beside Johannesburg, South Africa.
When Wikus and a Prawn named Christopher Johnson raid the MNU laboratory to retrieve the container holding the black fluid, Venter is sent out to capture him alive. Chasing them into District 9, after Wikus turns against Christopher to activate the dropship himself, Venter tortures Christopher for the location of Wikus, taunting him of how he enjoys watching Prawns die. Deciding to go back to save Christopher, however, Wikus activates a Prawn battle suit and engages the mercenaries in a fierce battle while Christopher and his son CJ ride the dropship to the mothership.
After a climactic battle, Venter manages to cripple Wikus' battle suit, who was nearing the end of his transformation, and mocks Wikus while stating his intention to finish him off. Just as he is about to kill Wikus, however, a group of Prawns arrives at Wikus' aid. Venter attempts to get them to stay back to no avail, and the Prawns take their revenge on Venter by tearing him to pieces before consuming his remains.
