Which Scary Movie has the man with the little hand and who is the character? Details revealed

Scary Movie often comes up with some of the most absurd characters and parodies. One such character is Ghostface from Scary Movie (2000), while another is Samara Morgan in the third part of the movie series, a girl who crawls out of the TV screen.

But there is one more character who has given the most comical gags and is the most memorable one in the franchise: Hanson from Scary Movie 2 with a little hand. He was introduced as a supporting character and also functioned as a secondary protagonist in the film.

He is the caretaker of Hell House, where the other main characters stay for the night. He is introduced as serving them food made with his small, deformed hand, which further creeps them out. "Take my strong hand" becomes his most comical gag, as he uses his small hand for everything: cooking, shaking hands, saving people, etc. His obsession with his "strong hand" becomes one of the film’s most iconic and meme-worthy running jokes.

Hanson is the character from Scary Movie 2 with the little hand

The idea was to make Hanson a weird and creepy servant in the mansion, but as the movie progresses, it is revealed that he is tied to the darker supernatural stories that exist within the four walls of the house. This makes him a secondary villain figure when Cindy and her friends fight with the ghost of Hugh Kane to escape Hell House alive.

Despite his villainous role, the character is mostly remembered for his bizarre antics and gross-out comedy, making him one of the most memorable characters from the Scary Movie series. Every now and then, he throws in his "take my strong hand" line, creeping out other characters.

When Hanson serves food to the residents and comes up with the dessert, Cindy and her friends actually see how he cooked for them with his "little hand." Hanson just adds to it by whipping the cream one last time, again, when his small hand goes into it, completely making all the residents almost puke.

Here are some more character-defining scenes of Hanson from Scary Movie 2

Another hilarious scene from Scary Movie 2 is when Dwight and Hanson meet for the first time and end up mocking each other's disabilities. Dwight comments and calls Hanson a "handyman" while Hanson also mocks Dwight for his skates, saying, "he might fall and break something." The banter goes on when Dwight says, while clapping,

"That's funny, let me give you a hand."

To which Hanson replies,

"How about you give me a standing ovation?"

Later in the film, when a ghostly chase dangles Dwight's wheelchair outside the mansion, he is seen begging Hanson to save him. Hanson offers his "strong hand." Dwight gets so grossed out that he chooses to fall instead.

Therefore, we can say that Hanson comes across as both a comic relief and a parody villain, and his strong-hand gag becomes one of the most remembered ones from the film.
