When Willard arrives at his compound Kurtz has since shaved his head bald to contrast the professional, civilized air his previous appearance had; suggesting a regression into a more primal state.
* BigBad: Arguable example. While Kurtz's actions are clearly extreme, and in violation of neutral territory surrounding Vietnam, nothing Kurtz does is any more evil than what his enemies or the US military is doing. The only thing that makes him even even close to serving this role is the fact that he sets the plot of the movie in motion.
* ColonelBadass: Not as overstated as Kilgore, but it should be noted his rate of success in battle with the enemy was high and the enemy feared him.
* KnightTemplar: Is extremely zealous about the idea of achieving victory at any cost.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Views winning a war as the highest priority of a soldier, and the greatest possible good they can achieve. Doesn't matter what it takes to win, even if you have to be cruel, because winning is right and losing is wrong.
