Actors are generally very charming. Therefore, we end up being impressed and even enchanted by their performances.
Sometimes, though, those performances completely
freak us out. If you don't want to be freaked, we've sourced
Reddit for some performances you need to avoid.
1
Malcolm McDowell in 'A Clockwork Orange.' I can’t even look at the guy. -u/143019
2
Sam Rockwell in most of his roles. To me as a kid, he was the most convincing character in 'The Green Mile', and Tom Hanks was the lead in that movie. -u/weedyscoot
3
John Goodman in '10 Cloverfield Lane.' PTSD activated. -u/allhailqueenspinoodi
4
Matthew Lillard as Shaggy. -u/laundryday_
5
Stanley Tucci in 'The Lovely Bones.' Took me forever to get that creepy-a** character out of my head whenever I saw him. -u/pikkopots
6
John Lithgow in that one season of 'Dexter.' I can’t look at him the same anymore. He creeps me out. -u/yecatsgee
7
Kathy Bates in 'Misery.' -u/Pineapple-dancer
8
Bryan Cranston as Walter White. Also the guy that played Tuco. -u/TheBlackPopeOP
9
Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter. -u/ghidfg
10
Glenn Howerton as Dennis Reynolds. -u/greenteateeth
11
Ralph Fiennes in 'Schindler’s List.' Terrified me. He disappeared into the role, too. -u/KahlanEAmnelle
12
Javier Bardem as Anton Chigurh. -u/Ok-Address-5466
13
Jon Heder cannot undo Napoleon Dynamite. -u/little_shop_of_hoors
14
Catherine O’Hara in 'Schitt’s Creek.' I have no idea how she managed to make everything consistently over the top and yet still not turn her character into a despicable self-parody (of a parody of a spoilt millionaire wife). -u/Drusio
15
Jake Gyllenhaal in 'Nightcrawler.' -u/pseudophant
16
Giancarlo Espósito as Gus in 'Breaking Bad.' He was brilliantly evil. -u/Geekmonster
17
Joaquin Phoenix in 'Gladiator.' I couldn't watch him in another movie for years, because I hated his character so freaking much. -userdeleted
18
Christian Bale from 'American Psycho.' -u/Olus666
19
Rosamund Pike in 'Gone Girl.' Talented, gorgeous actor and I cannot unsee her as terrifying and calculating. -u/clinteraction
20
Christoph Waltz as Col. Hans Landa in 'Inglorious Basterds.' -u/stykface
21
Joffrey Lannister (Jack Gleeson). -u/mastil12345668
22
Heath Ledger BECAME the Joker. -u/GCR58
23
Hugh Laurie as House, this man is the character. -u/WhippieShiz
24
Willem Dafoe. My man played Green Goblin too damn good. -u/ManeWha
25
Imelda Staunton as Delores Umbridge. There are very very few villains that I've seen in books, movies, or video games that I’ve wanted to personally kill more. That means she did an unbelievably good job as a twisted villain. -u/SumwhatNerdy
