Like Pyramid Head, Nemesis from Resident Evil 3 is grotesque. Unlike Pyramid Head, we can see his ugly face and hear its words as it utters “Star” obsessively and repeatedly, naming its prey. But it’s also intelligent. Unlike most of the creatures in Resident Evil, Nemesis can use weaponry. It also stalks you down and, thanks to the wonky controls of the original game, feels imposing. It’s hard to feel powerful when your character steers like a vehicle. This hulking, mutated mass of persistent evil has become a fan favorite, ensuring its place in other games and films. I can’t wait to see how he is utilized in the upcoming remake of the PlayStation classic.
