I’m talking about a moment when a villain has the hero at their mercy and then does a move to really show what an utter bastard they are. There’s no shortage of them, but one that really sticks out to me is one line from “Se7en” at the climax from Kevin Spacey as John Doe.

“Oh…he didn’t know.”

Anyone who’s seen “Se7en” will know exactly what I mean. As brutal as that film’s outcome is, that just makes it all the worse.

What’s your worst?

      Yes, he absolutely could. She had a gag reflex and was choking, clearing her airway would likely save her, and he actively chose not to. Calling an ambulance about an opiate OD and possibly some breathing assistance would give her a good shot at survival.

          She choked on her own vomit because she was on her back, he could’ve just rolled her onto her side and patted her back, and her chance of survival would’ve skyrocketed lol
