The Dark Rider definately has that Generic Evil Man look about him. The Dark Is Rising is sooo good, by the way. The rooks in the beginning and the tramp always creep me out.

Scanners can be silly things sometimes. Not too long ago I scanned a drawing of a lady in a Phantom of the Opera type dress, and the scanner strategially placed a little dot that looked like a mole on her. I didn't notice it until Bananabasket pointed it out, but it was quite odd.
