Few actors have had as much experience playing monsters in cinema as the great Udo Kier. But while he did play horror icons like Count Dracula and Dr. Jekyll, his scariest role is actually human, with nothing supernatural about him. The late German legend gave one of his best and most haunting performances in the 2019 Brazilian thriller Bacurau as the main villain, a hunter named Michael. The thing is, while Kleber Mendonça Filho's film certainly has its fair share of supernatural and surrealist inclinations, Michael isn't one of them, and his "hunting habits," behavior, ideology, and unpredictability make him scarier than any other role in Kier's curriculum.
