Charles Durning made a career out of playing sleezy men that you loved to hate:
http://www.aintitcool.com/node/60162
He was also suitably unpleasent playing a corrupt bully in Dark Night of the Scarecrow, a classic 70's shocker that's still a powerfull viewing experience and a rarity in the stalk and slash genre of its day because of its focus on suspense as well as the kills. If you get the chance, go out of your way to watch this
. The write up on the back of the Video Unlimited Motion Pictures VHS rental release reads:
'This is a terrifying story set in a small farming town in the Mid-West. A vigilante group is mustered to track down the killer of a little girl and vengance is centred on a severely retarded man. They execute the unfortunate man after they find him hiding in a scarecrow. Later events however prove him innocent and a revengefull spirit haunts each of the vigilantes with bizarre consequences.'
I'm just suprised no one's waved the re-make stick over this sick daddy yet ...
The full movie .. enjoy 8) ...
