3. Main Character/Killer
Played By: Conor Devereux
Jack Grimshaw is a relatively new student at The Douay Martyrs
school
fictional character, a mutant superhero in the Marvel
Comics Universe and member of the X-Men. He first appears
in Uncanny X-Men No. 54 (March 1969), and was created by Arnold
Drake, Don Heck, and Neal Adams. Havok generates powerful
“plasma blasts”, an ability he has had difficulty controlling. He is the
son of Corsair, the younger brother of the X-Men's Cyclops, and the
older brother of Vulcan. He often resents Cyclops' authoritarian
attitude and reputation as a model X-Man.
In contrast, Havok and his longtime love interest Polaris have had a
love/hate relationship with the team, often finding themselves roped
into it. Both were also members of the 1990s-era Pentagon-sponsored
mutant team X-Factor. After X-Factor disbanded, Havok starred
in Mutant X, a series in which he explored a strange alternate reality.
He has since returned to the X-Men, later taking over his father's role
as leader of the Starjammers to bring Vulcan's reign over the Shi'ar to
an end.
4. Silas is an albino numeracy of the Catholic organization Opus Dei,
the film portrays him as a monk who practices severe corporal
mortification (he is seen using a metal cilice and flogging himself).
He had a rough up bringing, and originally lived in Marseille with
his parents. However, his father was furious at having
an albino for his son, and blamed Silas's mother, repeatedly
beating and eventually killing her. Enraged, Silas murdered his
father using a butcher's knife and fled whilst Klaus is the most
powerful character on The Vampire Diaries. He is shown to be
sadistic and sociopathic due to his childhood after Klaus himself
wasn't accepted by his father. Jacks character in the movie is a tall
masculine teenage boy but has a lot of hidden traits. The killer is
poignant and insecure, he cares a lot about his religion and feels
the burn whenever someone around him makes fun of him due to
that or blasphemes or commits a sin and isn't sorry for doing so.
Just like Klaus and Silas, Jack had a rough up bringing which has
traumatised him and changed him for the worse, and just like
Silas he kills those sin as a way to appeal to his God, and feel like
he’s doing good by ridding the world of sin.

Sin: Envy
12. Cassie is portrayed as being peculiar and suffering
from several mental disorders — most notably,
anorexia nervosa — and multiple problems,
including low self-esteem, suicidal ideation, and
drug addiction. Whereas, Kelly is a hard-as-nails
“chav” with a softer side. A member of the original
Misfit gang, Kelly gained the power of telepathy
after the Storm which only made it worse for her
self-concious attitude. Both of these characters are
not always taken seriously by other members of the
group, and both aspire to be more like the ideal
woman. Cassie’s because of her mental illness and
Kelly because of her off-putting accent and
manliness. Like these two Katy feels like she isn’t
enough, despite not having any mental problems,
she aspires to be like Jodie and Hayley who are
perceived as the “prettiest girls in sixth form”.

13. Jacks 4th victim
Played By: Sophie Griffin
Startles Jack the most by her
appearances and beliefs. Amanda
who labels herself as a Goth is an
atheist, always wearing black and
listening to metal, her
proclamations really offend Jack.

actions will always have
consequences and she provokes
him by insulting him and insulting
his belief, claiming that “God
doesn’t exist and that if he did, she
was probably better than him”.
Sin: Blasphemous (Jack’s most
gruesome murder).
14. . In the Mean Girls movie, Janis warns
Cady to avoid the school's most exclusive
clique, the Plastics and once that she learns
that Cady is slowly becoming one of The
Plastics after being invited to join the
group on several occasions, Janis hatches a
plan of revenge against Regina, using Cady
as the infiltrator. Janis’ character in Mean
Girls matches Amanda’s character as she is
seen as an outsider by the elite female
group and isn't recognised by the males.
Both share the same personality and
characteristics, and interests as they both
enjoy listening to rock music and wearing
the colour black, and standing out from
other girls. Her feint gothic approach is
very similar to the way Amanda presents
herself.

18. Trevor's character is to resemble that of
Ryan Merriman when he played the role of
Kevin Fischer in Final Destination 3. Kevin
was a senior at McKinley High School, who
attended graduation night at an
amusement park with his girlfriend and
some friends. He and Wendy had a subtle
scorn for one another, and would often
strive for attention and sat next to each
other on the Devil's Flight roller coaster.
Throughout the movie, Kevin comes to
Wendy's aid, either reassuring her or
helping her discover whenever Death is at
work. His character inspires Trevor as
Trevor comes to Billie's aid once she
discovers all about Jack and his antics.
