Motion Picture Meltdown Villain Countdown: Kevin Bacon as Sean Nokes (Sleepers)

Villain #23: Kevin Bacon as Sean Nokes

Movie: Sleepers (1996)

Memorable Quote: "Excuse me, what the fuck are you looking at? GET THE FUCK DOWN ON YOUR GODDAMN KNEES AND FINISH YOUR GODDAMN LUNCH! "

Why he makes the cut: 

There are certain characters in movies that are just pure assholes. There really is no motivation for the way they are, and a lot of times these can make the best villains. Nokes is certainly in this category of villain. After a hot dog theft goes bad for four boys, and a man is accidentally killed, they are sent to a juvenile detention center under the watch of jail-guard Kevin Bacon primed in pure dickhead mode. He starts off small by just razzing the quartet of trouble making adolescents, but things get a little more serious when he knocks their food to the floor in the middle of juvee lunch, then proceeds to knock the boys to the ground and make them lick the food off the penitentiary  floor and scream at them in front of all the other inmates. Quickly the razzing turns to beating the living shit out of the young boys and then the beatings quickly turn to rape. Wait? What? Yep. That's right. Not only is Nokes an abusive asshole with a superiority complex toward young boys, but he also likes when they play with his penis. (Which this happens to be one of the only movies you don't see it in.) So if it wasn't bad enough that these four children are spending their childhood under lockdown, their nightmares are penetrated by Kevin Bacon's face, as well as their bodies being penetrated by his overly video-taped shlong. A lot of people see this as the most pure evil someone could even be. I mean...you've got to be a pretty bad guy when you're selected to star in a movie where Bobby Deniro is the comforting antagonist. In fact, he's such an asshole that when two of the boys confront him about fifteen years later, and he doesn't even remember them. Its like he'd done it a million times, and can't tell the difference from these boys or any of the others he had a field day with. You can't help but breathe sigh of relief when he takes a bullet in the back of a shitty Italian restaurant.
