D is for David Allen

The older brother of Mia Allen, David is the protagonist of 2013's Evil Dead for a majority of the film. The pair have one of my all-time favorite movie lines.

Mia: I know I look like roadkill. 
David: Oh you look beautiful, as always. 
Mia:  And you're a charming liar, as always.

I don't know what it is about that interaction, but it's always stuck with me. While he met a cruel end in the film (and an even darker one in the alternate cut), maybe in the greater Evil Dead multiverse there's a version that saved Mia and got to live.
