The 17 Biggest Bang-tastrophes In The History Of TV And Film

An in depth look at the bad, the bangs, and the ugly.

17. Rachael - Blade Runner

The blade she should have been running from was the one that cut those bangs.

16. Pet Meagles - Little Dorrit

Via bbc.co.uk

Little Dorrit is your quintessential period drama riddled with dreadful hair. And by dreadful, I mean like shockwaves of pain through your optic nerve. It's like traveling through time and getting electrocuted in the process.

15. Vanessa Huxtable

Vanessa Huxtable has had many unbeweavable hairstyles throughout the Cosby era. Fortunately her hideous outfits & accessories usually soften the blow-out.

14. Our Girl Meg - When Harry Met Sally

If Marge Simpson got a Brazilian Blowout, I imagine it would look something like this

13. Pauline - The Paradise

This is just so tragic on so many levels. I don't think that there is a word in the English language offensive enough to describe what we see here. If bangs could talk, these would probably beg to be euthanized.

12. Anna Karenina

I'd like to think that these bangs were God's way of punishing her for being such an adulterous harlot. Karma can be a bitch, especially when its delivered with a pair of clippers.

11. Cassie Steele - Degrassi

If you've watched the show, then you are probably aware that Degrassi High is like a Bangsta's Paradise. Cassie Steele is living proof that both true love and bad bangs know no color.

10. Bennet Sisters - Pride and Prejudice

This is why you shouldn't play with fire and curling tongs.

9. Marianne - Sense and Sensibility

Via imdb.com

There is nothing sensical about this. It's as though her forehead just birthed an order of curly fries.

8. Dawson Leery - Dawson's Creek

Via hellogiggles.com

The only thing fuglier than Dawson's butt-cut is his crying face.

7. Sarah O'brien - Downton Abbey

Via radiotimes.com

O'Brien's bangs are like a character of their own. Say what you will about the nasty old maid- not many people can boast that their bangs defy gravity.

6. Liz Lemon - 30 Rock

Via ew.com

Although this eyesore was short-lived, the damage was permanent. The horror of it still hangs over us like a dark cloud.

5. Dandy Mott - AHS Freak Show

Via bustle.com

If Alfalfa and a homicidal rhino had a baby, it would be Dandy Mott. I find him to be much more terrifying than Twisty the Clown, mostly because of his fangs...I mean bangs.

4. Denise Huxtable

Via natural-nashville.com

I don't know even know if "bangs" is the appropriate word here. This is more like a botched pompadour/reverse mullet hybrid. If Denise Huxtable can't even pull it off, then you know its unacceptable.

3. Casey Becker - Scream

Via moviepilot.com

I'd be screaming like hell too if I saw those bangs in my reflection. Even the mask looks terrified.

2. Gale Riley - Scream 3

Via scream.wikia.com

This is just brutal. It kinda makes you wonder if the killer went for the bangs instead of the jugular. Lets just say we were sufficiently hairified.

1. Peggy Olsen - Mad Men

Via ew.com

There really are no words to describe how painful this is. In the words of Anna Wintour, "If bangs could kill, we'd all be dead."
