I hate it when the villain is unknown by the hero, I dunno, the good guy thinks the bad guy is a friend or something. And at a critical moment the evil-doer says something he shouldn't have known letting mister righteous know the true nature of what's going on.
But I didn't say the nazis that tortured my mother were zombies raised by occult powers of the ascendant Super-Fuhrer.
Next time I read or watch something that uses that I'm going to go out into the street and punch the first baby I find.
