Carter Burke (Aliens, Paul Reiser). He's evil enough that Reiser's mother said "Good" when Burke was killed by a xenomorph.

There's either a deleted scene or it's in the Special Edition where his death is a little different.

In the theatrical version, he is running away from the lab through various doors and one opens and there stands a xenomorph. We hear him moan in terror and then we see the xenomorph's inner teeth shoot out. End of Burke.
There is a picture of a filmed scene where Ripley, while looking for Newt, finds Burke cocooned and he apparently says he can feel one of the chestbursters inside him. Ripley hands him a grenade then walks away. The scene was cut and is not in the extended version. But, according to avp.wikia.com:
Originally, Burke's ultimate fate in Aliens was revealed in a deleted scene — as she searched the Hive for Newt near the end of the film, Ripley found Burke cocooned to the wall, still alive and impregnated with a Chestburster. He tells her he can feel the embryo moving inside him, and begs her to help him. Ripley does not, but hands him a grenade so that he may end his own suffering.[10]
The scene was mainly cut because director James Cameron realised that, given the time frame of the film, Burke would still have had a Facehugger attached to him by the time Ripley enters the Hive. Despite this, it still appeared in the novelization of the film[11] and the comic adaptation Aliens: Newt's Tale. The movie footage was released for the first time as a bonus feature on the 2010 Alien Anthology Blu-ray set.

A new favorite:
Balem Abrasax (Eddie Redmayne) in Jupiter Ascending (2015)
Okay, so the movie is awful, and I don't expect him to make anybody's list, but Redmayne's over-the-top performance as an emotionally unstable, queer (meaning weird) tyrant with ambiguously odd fish lips was worth seeing, if only for anticipation of his next hilarious outburst.
(I'm going to be walking around mumbling in strained whispers then screaming "GO!!!" when least expected for a long time to come!)

Cuts his way through a squad of commandos that razed a guerilla encampment 100 strong like they were teens in a horror flick (the commandos were the teens in the horror flick).

I'm gonna throw in whoever this guy is from Godzilla: Final Wars. He's so flamboyantly evil, it's awesome.

If I'd have to pick my absolute favourite, it's probably Hans Landa from Inglourious Basterds. Funny, frightening, crazy, rational, psychotic and everything else all at the same time.
If we're allowing digression into TV, Robert Terwilliger and The Swede.
Otherwise, can't go wrong with Tim Roth's Archibald Cunningham and Emil Blonsky.
