| “ | Mr. Vollmer, I was writing and delivering speeches decades before you could read or understand them! I was fighting battles when your only struggle was to climb out of a womb! I was taking over the world when your universe was a crib! And as for being in darkness, Mr. Vollmer... I INVENTED darkness! | „ |
| ~ Hitler revealing his identity to Peter Vollmer. |
| “ | Where will he go next, this phantom from another time, this resurrected ghost of a previous nightmare - Chicago? Los Angeles? Miami, Florida? Vincennes, Indiana? Syracuse, New York? Anyplace, everyplace, where there's hate, where there's prejudice, where there's bigotry. He's alive. He's alive so long as these evils exist. Remember that when he comes to your town. Remember it when you hear his voice speaking out through others. Remember it when you hear a name called, a minority attacked, any blind, unreasoning assault on a people or any human being. He's alive because through these things we keep him alive. | „ |
| ~ Rod Serling about Hitler. |
Adolfus Hitler (known simply as Adolf Hitler or Führer) is the main antagonist of the Twilight Zone episode "He's Alive" - which popularized the idea that tyrants such as Adolf Hitler may die as people but can continue to influence the world via the actions of others.
He was portrayed by the late Curt Conway.
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- Much like the real-life version, he has committed numerous crimes such as subverting the democratic institutions of Germany to seize absolute power, orchestrating the mass genocide of millions of Jews and other undesirables in the holocaust and conquering much of Europe with the intent of wiping out the native population.
- He also was responsible for the actions of some other villains in the series, including Captain Gunther Lutze.
- He didn't care about the lives of his own men, ruthlessly manipulating and sacrificing them.
- Taught Peter how to enthrall a rambunctious crowd by sacrificing people.
- Instructed Peter to arrange the death of one of his followers, Nick, thereby creating a martyr to rally everyone around.
- Ordered Peter to kill Ernst.
- When Peter obeyed him, he blamed him for his complicity in Nick's murder, causing the police to fire him, and mortally wounding him.
- He then left the dying Vollmer and continued searching for his successor.
Trivia[]
- He is one of three fictional versions of Adolf Hitler to be Pure Evil, along with his Zombie Army Trilogy and Hunters incarnations.
