Charles McCulloch is one of the two secondary antagonists of the 1989 slasher film Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan.

Biography

He is one of the two teachers aboard the S.S. Lazarus along with Colleen Van Deusen. Before the ship left the dock, he was unhappy when the woman arrived late, especially when it was with his niece. As the senior teacher, he claimed to be in charge, and grew angry at everyone on the ship. He also disregarded the Deckhand's warnings about Jason.

He has a cold and harsh attitude to everyone, except in few cases such as after Sean's father was killed by Jason, and after Colleen, Julius, Renee, and Sean got off the S.S. Lazarus in Manhattan.

After the group's arrival in Manhattan, they are attacked to gangbangers, resulting in scaring away Toby and kidnapping Rennie. The remaining group then split up to search for help and he finds an Irish cop willing to help them, though the gangbangers had seemingly vanished. In the meantime, Julius is killed by Jason who placed Julius' severed head into the cop's car before being attacked by Jason. Renee returns while most are able to escape, but Colleen dies when the police car is crashed.

When Jason catches up to him, he was shocked to see the man, causing him to realize that the Deckhand of the ship's warning had been true. He tries to escape by going into a building, but Jason throws him out of a window like a rag doll, before picking him up, and drowning him in a barrel of sewage.
