Best villainous actor/actress
 

I know there have been several threads about favorite villains in movies, but I want to know which actor/actresses are your favorite villains!

My picks

Actor: Alan Rickman, he's so deliciously evil and I can't think of a single villain role he's ever played that I haven't loved. In fact I think he's upstaged the hero in just about every movie he's ever played the bad guy in.

Actress: This one is more difficult because not that many actresses are cast as the villain. Meryl Streep does a fantastic baddie as well as Bette Davis. I think that Elizabeth Taylor could have been a truly fantastic villain.

When I saw this thread, Alan was the first person to come to mind.

Evil + Hilarious = Alan Rickman

Tim Curry also makes a good villain.

In the 1940s there were a few actresses who usually played heavies. Judith Anderson and Gale Sondergarrd come to mind.

In the 1950s Marie Windsor was mostly up to no good.

Tim Roth killed it in Rob Roy. That deadly limp-wristed fop with that benign look just kills me

and the list goes on...

Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter in The Silence of the Lambs. Impressive when you think of how many heroic roles he plays as well. Ted Levine as Jame 'Buffalo Bill' Gumb was equally as frightening, great performances.

Re: Best villainous actor/actress
 

Anthony Hopkins gets my vote.

Nurse Ratched, played by Louise Fletcher, had that rightous evilness
that sent shudders of pure anger down our spines in "One Flew Over
the Cuckoo's Nest".

Lighten up. If you were a real fan you would have already seen season 8 and that vague information doesn't qualify as a spoiler. Movie trailers give away more plot information than that.

A real fan? **** right off. :mad:

Re: Best villainous actor/actress
 

Ahhh Anthony Hopkins and Gary Oldman!! Yeah for sure great villains. Dennis Hopper, i like for the most part, but not all of his roles.

Nurse Ratched!! OMG I loved her in that!

Hey kickass, you can still wrap spoiler-tags around it via edit ... and every one will be happy :) But even as a "24" denyer I have to spoil this one:
Jack Bauer will save the USA and the world - again! :cool:

Re: Best villainous actor/actress
 

it was just a post which is part of the thread.. anywayz that villain was on season 7 and season 8 already ended.

Unless I am mistaken, not every show airs at the same time in every country... or it may not air at all in some countries and people have to wait for it to be released on DVD... regardless, it wouldn't have hurt you to use spoiler tags on your post...

Now, all of you be nice... or I won't be...
