  Horror film fans remember him from the 1988 hit horror film Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers as the Reverend Jackson P. Sayer. He portrayed a man passionate of his convictions and as a good Samaritan. Because Dr. Sam Loomis' transportation was destroyed while en route to Haddonfield, the reverend picked up the psychiatrist who was trying to hitchhike alongside a rural highway. The good reverend referred to his newfound passenger as a "fellow pilgrim." He paralleled a message to Loomis that "you can't kill damnation, mister. It don't die like a man dies." Loomis understood the reverend's insight privately reassuring himself that his patient Michael Myers seemed to be a relentless form of this damnation.

• Norman Bates
  Norman Bates is a fictional character created by writer Robert Bloch as the central character in his novel Psycho, and portrayed by Anthony Perkins as the main antagonist of the 1960 film of the same name directed by Alfred Hitchcock. The character was inspired by serial killer Ed Gein.
  Both the novel and Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 film adaptation explain that Bates suffers severe emotional abuse as a child at the hands of his mother, Norma, who preaches to him that sexual intercourse is sinful and that all women (except herself) are whores. The two of them live alone together in a state of total codependence after the death of Bates' father until Bates reaches adolescence, when his mother takes a lover, Joe Considine. Driven over the edge with jealousy, Bates murders both of them with strychnine. After committing the murders, Bates develops dissociative identity disorder, preserving his mother's corpse and assuming her personality to repress her death and escape the guilt of murdering her. He inherits his mother's house — where he keeps her corpse — and the family motel in fictional Fairvale, California.
