ah that is true but she is hardly used in it.

on throw momma when she calls a load of old people and Nuns on a train 'Bingo B*stards' it always makes me smile....never know why but I do.

 

[Destruction]

I'm a big fan of Mads in Hannibal at the moment. Nina Myers in 24 was another favourite.

For film, the first one that came to my head was Fiennes as Goeth

 

[Destruction]

TVs a hard one, if we were saying pantomime villains then Mr Mackay from Porridge is your clear winner, what a character. Truly evil villains we're talking DCI Jim Keats in Ashes to Ashes the slimy git. And then there's the Shredder, Oroku Saki, what a heroic villain.

But for film look no further than Joan Severance's character Eve in the 1989 classic, See No Evil, Hear No Evil. Probably the sexiest villain of all time. Honourable mentions to White Goodman of Dodgeball fame and the Trunchbull from Matilda.

 

[Master D]

The Trinity Killer from Dexter season 4.

TV Series - Slade Wilson/Deathstroke from Arrow although Joffrey Baratheon gives him a great run for it, Jack Gleeson did a great job in making a villain who was pretty much universally hated.

Film - Heath Ledger's Joker, also really liked the fan theory that the Joker was ex military, given his expertise with weaponary and his level of tactical precision.

 

[G-Dragon]

TV: Sherlock - James Moriarty

TV: Sherlock - James Moriarty

Found this incarnation of Moriarty disappointing tbh.

Gene Hackman was always a good bastard in films.

His Lex Luthor is more rememorable and charismatic than others :

And he plays a right cruel bastard both in The Quick And The Dead...

... and in Unforgiven

He's also a very good 'goodie'; one of those rare actors thats comfortable in both roles. With others it just doesn't sit right, when for instance Tom Cruise or Tom Hanks play villains, but Hackman can move between roles like that with ease.

CGB Spender, aka Cigarette Smoking Man was a great villain in the X-Files

 

[silkyman]

The Joker was an incredible villain.

Ben in Lost was creepy as fuck but there's few TV baddies who can touch Mr Burns for pure evil!

 

[redjed]

The Hood from Thunderbirds!
