The Big Bad Broz

The Big Bad Broz were a group of 3 friends in the brothers' school. These 3 were the biggest, baddest bullies around, tormenting the brothers and their friends. The 3 bullies were: Victor Nelson, Ryker Liard, and Gunnar Zachmen. Victor specifically was a real devil in the brothers' lives. His behavior towards Alan & his litte brothers could be another major reason why he's shown to be so overprotective of this brothers. In the Novel, they are much more well known; being described as possessing black trench coats, with Victor having a pair of black shades. Victor & Ryker were both 16, and Gunnar was 14. In both the Remake & Novel continuities, the B.B.B's followed the brothers to Akrida when they first went there. In the Novel, they actually show up behind the brothers & confront them from there, and then are killed out of no where by L.O.C.U.S.T, as Gunnar runs away, never to be seen again. 

In Remake Ch. 1, they are never seen on screen, but in the lore, they are in fact on that island while they explore (the events of the films are actually much deeper & longer than portrayed). The B.B.B's were there, spying on the brothers from the Island's densely forested highlands, laughing & planning how they'd strike the brothers. However, they did not notice how something massive was creepying silently up behind them. L.O.C.U.S.T killed Victor first with a strike to the head with his sickle-claw, then as Ryker & Gunnar screamed, he slashed Ryker in the neck, and Gunnar took off running like in the Novel, never to be seen again. It is possible that Gunnar was in fact one of the Missing Persons from the 81'-97' Spree (who was actually alive).
