This is Scabior, the Snatcher from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, as brought to life on screen by actor Nick Moran. Scabior, we must understand, is a nasty, evil villain in both the book and the movie; the movie ups his creep factor by having him sniff Hermione's hair and generally be threateningly suggestive. Nick Moran, we must understand, is an empirically attractive actor.
Here's the Disturbing Thing: People are shipping Scabior and Hermione.
Which just goes to prove (again) if you make it pretty, no matter how Bad it is, people will like it.
Update: Disturbing Thing #1a, to go with Deathly Hallows Part 2
Disturbing Thing #2
Hospitalizations for problems caused by eating disorders grew 18 percent from 1999 to 2006, with the steepest rise among children under age 12 (up 119 percent)Fabulous! Great news! The obesity panic is working! And it's exciting to see mental health treatment in this country be really prioritized! Nothing helps someone with a psychological disorder get better like taking away all their treatment options by not reimbursing for them! Awesome!
You know, I think those are the only Disturbing Things I care to deal with just at the moment. Carry on.
