Your example of the shitty Mom in Dream Warriors is spot on. Doesn't she screw her " dates " while her daughter is in the next room? Yeah, she's a delightful piece of work.

For these reasons, I feel like watching horror may actually make me a much better parent someday....should I ever have children that is! I'll listen better when they're telling me some outlandish story of monsters living in the closet or under the bed.




As for my most hated character that would be "Evil" from New Year's Evil-1980.
