Daddy.
~ Victor Crowley's only spoken word.

Victor Crowley is the main antagonist of the Hatchet film series.

He was a notorious and merciless spirit, gained a legendary status as a mythical figure due to his heinous acts of mass murder that took place within the eerie confines of the swamp. He is also an archenemy of Marybeth Duston.

He was portrayed by Kane Hodder in all four films, who is famous for playing Jason Voorhees four times in the Friday the 13th film franchise. He has also been portrayed by actress Rileah Vanderbilt during flashback scenes of him as a teenager.

Biography[]

Backstory[]

Prior of the main event throughout the four films before Victor Crowley's existence, his father called Thomas Crowley was a resident in Honey Island Swamp. He was married to a woman called Shyann. Shyann was dying of stomach cancer, and sometimes a nurse named Lena would come to their house and check on her. Thomas and Lena began having an affair behind Shyann’s back. When Shyann discovered the affair, she furiously placed a curse on the unborn baby Lena was pregnant with before succumbing to her cancer and dying.

When Lena gave birth to Victor Crowley, the swamp mourned, the trees wept, and the animals became sick and died. When Lena laid eyes on the newborn Victor, it made Lena drop dead from seeing the sight of Victor. Thomas at first hid Victor only to hide what he did. But over the years he grew to love his son. Kids would often pick on him due to his deformity, thus leading to Tom having to shield Victor from the outside world.

One Halloween night, three teens come to the house and threw sparklers at it so they could scare Victor out of the house because they wanted to see him. However, the sparklers resulted in the house catching fire, trapping Victor inside. Thomas arrived and began hacking away at the door with a hatchet to get inside and rescue Victor, but he didn’t realise that Victor was pressed up against the door trying to escape; resulting Thomas accidentally striking Victor in the face with the hatchet when he breaks through the door, killing him instantly.

Thomas furiously confronted the teens responsible for starting for the fire, but due to Thomas’ violent response; in particular brandishing a shotgun, they hid away behind their parents and denied everything. Afterward, Thomas became a shut-in and died of a broken heart ten years after Victor’s death.

Around this time, Victor was resurrected as a vengeful spirit, stuck on the night he died. He began killing those who enter the swamp. This resulted in Victor Crowley becoming a legend on Honey Island Swamp with many refusing to enter the swamp due to the legend. Those who still entered the swamp at night were brutally butchered by Victor.

Hatchet[]

Sampson Dunston and his son Ainsley are in Honey Island Swamp hunting alligators. Ainsley leaves to urinate, only to come back and find his father's horrifically mutilated corpse. He then is attacked and brutally mutilated by Victor.

Two days after these murders, an illegal swamp tour led by Shawn takes places which consists of Marybeth who is Sampson’s daughter and Ainsley’s sister, tourists Ben and Marcus, models Jenna and Misty and their boss Doug Shapiro, and married couple Shannon and Jim Permatteo. When going through the swamp, they become stranded in Victor’s territory. Aware of the Victor Crowley legend, Marybeth warns the group not to go further into the swamp. Jim and Shannon ignore this warning and venture towards the Crowley house to find help for Jim’s injured leg. Victor emerges and chops Jim in half with a hatchet, and then tears Shannon’s head open using his bare hands. Victor then runs right toward Marybeth only to get shot and fall flat

The group escapes, but Shapiro gets separated from the group, where Victor then twists his head all the way around and then off with his bare hands. Victor ambushes the group later on, mutilating Jenna’s jaw with a belt sander. Shawn attempts to rescue Jenna by attacking Victor with a shovel, but Victor grabs the shovel and uses it to decapitate Shawn. He then finishes Jenna off by impaling her on the shovel handle. As the group tries to fight back against Victor, he dismembers Misty. The group sets Victor on fire but rainfall puts him out. Crowley then stalks the group and kills Marcus by tearing his arms off and smashing his head against a gravestone; leaving Marybeth and Ben as the last two remaining.

Marybeth and Ben try to escape using a boat, but Victor throws a pole at them, which impales in Ben’s foot. As Victor lunges at them, Marybeth and Ben are able to bend the pole outward; which impales Victor and seemingly kills him. Marybeth and Ben escape on a boat, but Marybeth falls into the lake and is entangled by a piece of seaweed. She sees Ben’s arm reaching for her and she grabs it and is pulled up to the surface only to be met by a roaring Victor Crowley who was using Ben’s severed arm to get Marybeth. He grabs her by the throat while Ben is slowly bleeding to death in the boat.

Hatchet II[]

Marybeth is able to escape Victor by gouging his eye out. She is rescued by Jack Cracker and taken back to his house. When he learns her last name, he demands her to leave. Shortly after she leaves, Victor appears inside Jack’s house and disembowels and decapitates him with Cracker’s own intestines.

After receiving help from Reverend Zombie, Marybeth and Zombie gather a large group of hunters to find and hunt Victor. These hunters include Chad, Cletus, Layton, Avery, Vernon and John. Justin, Shawn’s twin brother participates in the hunt as well. Zombie ensures Marybeth’s uncle Bob and a hunter called Trent are also in the group to go to the swamp, but refuses to say why. As the night goes on, Victor begins to systematically kill the hunters one by one; starting with Chad and Cletus at the boat, then Layton and Avery while they are having sex. He then kills Vernon and John using a long chainsaw. Zombie reveals the reason why he wants Trent and Bob in the group is because they were the two teens along with Marybeth’s father who started the fire that led to Victor’s death. He believes if Victor kills them, his spirit will then pass on. Justin attempts to leave the group but is ambushed and killed by Victor. Zombie drags Marybeth out of Victor’s house, trapping Trent and Bob inside with Victor. Victor partially decapitates Trent and tears Bob apart. Zombie believes Victor is now dead, but Marybeth reveals that Bob was not her uncle and just a friend of her family. Her real uncle and the one who was there on the night of Victor’s death died many years ago from an illness. Realising his plan has failed, Zombie sees Victor emerge from his house. He tackles Victor but is then chopped in half and skinned alive by him. Marybeth attacks Victor with a hatchet, hacking away at his face until it is a bloody pulp, before then blasting his head off with a shotgun.

Hatchet III[]

As Marybeth fled, Victor rose and attacked her again, but she managed to vertically saw him in half with his own giant chainsaw. Believing him dead, Marybeth returned to New Orleans the next morning to tell the police about the massacre. Upon the discovery of several bodies across the swamp, Sheriff Fowler imprisons Marybeth as the killer, despite her insistence that it was Victor.

Victor’s body is tagged up by EMTs but when the night comes in, Victor reanimates and kills the paramedics and the rest of the first response team. As a result, the SWAT team is deployed, taking over the operation from Fowler. Venturing deeper into the swamp, they discover more bodies where Victor appears and effortlessly massacres the SWAT team and the rest of the police with the exception of Andrew, Fowler and Dougherty. The carnage results in the destruction of Victor’s house. Meanwhile, Marybeth is freed from prison and with the help of Deputy Winslow and Fowler’s estranged wife, Amanda, they retrieve the ashes of Thomas Crowley from his distant cousin. Amanda believes if Victor is reunited with his father, he will be at peace and pass on, ending his reign of terror in the swamp for good.

Chasing after a lone paramedic who finds a still alive Ben in the boat, Victor finishes Ben off by throwing a hatchet in his head, but is prevented from killing the paramedic when an alligator arrives and mauls the paramedic to death instead. Victor finds Fowler, Dougherty and Andrew locked in the water ambulance and proceeds to saw his way in using a belt sander. Marybeth, Amanda and Winslow arrive outside, shouting to Victor they have his father. Upon hearing his wife’s voice, Fowler expresses relief, only to be grabbed and decapitated with the belt sander by Victor. Dougherty attempts to retrieve Fowler’s gun from his body, but is grabbed and pulled through the door by Victor; disembowelling her in the process.

Victor arrives back at his burning house where Marybeth, Amanda and Winslow are waiting for him. Marybeth holds out the urn to Victor, saying it is his father, while also apologising for what her father did to Victor when he was alive. Upon seeing the urn, Victor says “Daddy.” and approaches to take the ashes. Winslow, however misinterprets Victor approaching as an attack and shoots him until he falls to the ground. Victor then rises back up and tears Winslow’s chest open, killing him. In response, Amanda rolls the urn back to Marybeth and tries to grab Winslow’s gun, but is decapitated by Victor. Victor then impales Marybeth on a tree branch, but before he can finish her off, she smashes the urn over his head, spreading his father’s ashes over him. This results in Victor slowly melting away until his skeleton remains. Using her last ounce of strength, Marybeth grabs an RPG from a dead SWAT team member and fires it at Victor’s skeleton, killing him for good.

Victor Crowley[]

For ten years, Victor Crowley remained truly dead. In 2017, though, actors preparing to make a movie about him ventured to the swamp and tried to recite the curse as a line in the movie by using a YouTube playlist as reference. When the actors fled to help survivors of a nearby plane crash - who included Andrew Yong - Rose mistakenly left her phone behind as it played the videos of the curse. At least one of these videos managed to recast the curse, and Victor Crowley was reborn.

Victor first attacked Alex and Chloe at his house, killing Alex. Chloe fled to the plane, where Victor badly injured her and dragged her off as bait to lure the others out. Eventually, Kathleen fled the plane in a panic. Victor killed Austin as he tried to stop her, then chased and killed Kathleen. With no further use for Chloe, Victor crushed her skull before attacking the plane, drowning a trapped Casey. He then tried to sand his way in, forcing everyone to flee before he got in. Victor killed Sabrina before confronting Andrew, Rose, and Dillon at the plane. Unable to stop Victor any other way, Dillon tackled Victor into the plane's running jet engine, shredding them both.

Since the curse remained active, it is implied that Victor revived the following night.

Personality[]

Before the events of the first film, Victor was a shy kid who was kept away from the rest of the world due to his facial deformity. Victor also had a very close bond with his father, who loved him dearly.

After his death and then his father's, Victor became an enraged spirit; killing anyone that would come near or inside the swamp he lives in. It is also said he's stuck on the night he died, therefore it could be possible that he's thinking that he's only defending himself and/or avenging his father, even though most of the people that come upon him are innocent, regardless, he doesn't hold back on anyone that he comes across.

As a supernatural spirit, Victor possesses immense supernatural strength and abilities; allowing him to perform several impossible acts with relative ease. He has been shown effortlessly dismembering victims with his bare hands, and has even lifted fully grown people over his head on several occasions. Victor is still vulnerable to damage and he will eventually die if overwhelmed by damaging attacks, but as he is an undead spirit, he simply reanimates a few moments later and resumes his killing spree. Victor also possesses keen senses, allowing him to easily find people hiding in the swamp. He seems to always know where people are hiding in the swamp. In Victor Crowley, Victor throws his hatchet in the general direction of where is Rose is hiding due to a tear rolling down Rose’s cheek hitting the floor.
