Re: Greatest Ever Movie Villains
 

Good list but Scarecrow just wasn't fascinating enough for me. Names like Jason, Alien, Predator were just outside my top 10. Great horror/Scifi villains.

Re: Greatest Ever Movie Villains
 

Besides the Joker, Scarecrow is my favorite villain. Joker's humor really adds on to his personality though.

I'm just in love with the whole Alien series, and that's how it got on my top ten. Jason may be a bit obvious, but he is one of the few people that helped shape the slasher flicks.

Re: Greatest Ever Movie Villains
 

That's for sure, if it wasn't for Jason and his series of movies would we ever have had Scream?

These threads have been done before, but probably my top two are George C Scott in The Hustler and John Huston in Chinatown. Both money grabbing, impersonal and ammoral capitalistic at it's most cannbalistic extreme. Take all the Darth Vadars and silly Hannibal Lectors you want, they simply just don't compare.

Who knows man, who knows. I know that these old school villains helped shape today's villains.

word.

Some of my favorites:

Alec Baldwin from The Cooler and Miami Blues
Ben Kingsley from Sexy Beast
Kevin Spacey from The Usual Suspects and Se7en
Rutger Hauer from The Hitcher
Louise Fletcher from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

When it comes to villains, I always seem to think of Scorpio from the first Dirty Harry. He was truly ruthless and pathetic at the same time.

Kneel before Zod

Seriously...Zod...Dude's a badass

Re: Greatest Ever Movie Villains
 

Joshua Foss in Sudden Death
Bill Strannix in Under Siege
Bernie Rose in Drive
Terminator in The Terminator
Max Cady in Cape Fear (1991)
Frank Booth in Blue Velvet
GR-13/Andrew Scott in Universal Soldier
Tony Montana in Scarface

Probably the only villain in the history of cinema that actually freaked me out.

Re: Greatest Ever Movie Villains
 

For me, hands down it's Javier Bardem as Anton, in No Country for Old Men.

I wouldn't count Gordon Gekko as a villain more as someone who is misunderstood.
And Joker needs to be at the top of your list!

Vader does give Joker a run for his money, but to me Joker is much more interesting.

Re: Greatest Ever Movie Villains
 

Joel Schumacher, that guy ruined the 90s for me lol. Seriously, The Joker, Vader, Zod, Magneto, Fernand Mondego, Prince Humperdinck.

Re: Greatest Ever Movie Villains
 

Nice avatar, Kinosis, that thing should be in it's own list. I watched the movie when I was younger and it was really disturbing watching that thing move.

My favorite, of course:
