Kane Hodder

Was a bastard in:

Hatchet (2006)

So what the Hell is he?...

What is it with the horribly deformed that

makes them want to kill everyone huh? I

suspect it has something to do with a

subliminal societal fear of the ‘outsider’ –

those who are different and must be

destroyed to preserve the status quo. Or

perhaps it is just an indication of our own

shallow pre-occupation with youth and

beauty to the extent that we represent those

deemed ugly by the norm as psychotic

savages.

Whatever the case, poor ol’ Vic is another

one of those killers who arrive in the world

with ‘horrible birth defects’. Poor little

bugger never stood a chance really, his

future as a rampantly violent murderer was

pretty much set in stone. Of course it didn’t

help when the local kids in his New Orleans

Swamp home mocked him mercilessly until,

in a prank-gone-wrong accidentally set his house on fire. As if this wasn’t bad enough, young Victor’s father then tries to chop the door down with a hatchet unaware that his son was standing on the other side. One hatchet in the head later and we have a dead freak and a grieving father.

It doesn’t end there however, no siree Bob. Ever since then the ghost of Victor has been stuck in that night and prowls the swamps looking for his daddy. Oh and killing anybody who gets in his way. Well anybody at all really regardless of whether they are in his way or not.

That’s not a knife…

No it’s a hatchet of course, have you read the film’s title? He also uses a spade, an industrial sander and his bare hands to rather disgusting effect.

Why, for the love of God why?!!?!

I guess it’s because of those cheeky little scamps who taunted him as a child. See, it’s not all carnage and gore in these films – there’s lessons to be learnt too. In this case the lesson is ‘don’t pick on deformed kids because they’ll return as massive bastards with axes and chop you into messes’.

So what’s the damage?

Shitloads. Victor kills indiscriminately and repeatedly. He also likes to vary his methods a fair bit. One of the worst has to be the poor girl who gets her lower jaw sanded off then is left to crawl around bleeding until being put out of her jaw-less misery impaled on the wooden handle of a shovel. Lucky lady.

It’s a million to one chance but it might just work…

What these ugly bastard lunatics lack in looks they make up for in invulnerability. Like many before him Victor Crowley sure takes some damage to put down and even then it’s no sure thing. He doesn’t seem to like being set on fire very much though but then again, who does?

Words of wisdom

“ggggrrrarragghhhgg” Lots and lots of guttural roaring for good old Vicky boy. Not much for anything more articulate than that though.
