Death Inc

Inspired by the voldermort vs Vader in the pic of the day thread, I thought I'd start this thread.

I love a good bad guy, nop hero is complete without a good bad guy.

Personally, I think Vader is the most epic bad guy ever.

Voldermort, pfft, he is pretty poor bad guy, I'd go the Dursley family over Voldermort for a Harry Potter bad guy. The Dursleys are just so deliciously detestable. Before Emma Watson got hot, they were my favorite Potter characters.

I'm interested to hear who you guys rate as your top TV or movie bad guys.

Pretty hard to top Vader IMO

What about skeletor. He was a bad ass mofo cause he was an undead magic wielding psycho. Or what if chuck Norris was really evil. He would be bad ass too.

Jason Isaacs in The Patriot, thought he was decidedly quite coolly evil.

and

Ba'al from stargate, he was always my favourite gouald.

Not sure if I can top Vader, but these guys are pretty epic in their own ways:

The Master (Doctor Who)

Hades (Disney's Hercules)

Don't much like the new master, although that might be more the fault of Russel Davies than anything. I don't like how he is clearly deranged in the new series and they made up the whole sound of drums thing because he wasn't like that originally. He isn't really full of loathing and hatred like Vader is either- and certainly isn't as much of a badass. Although stealing Nyssa's dad's body was a pretty dick move.



Another candidate for best bad guy is A.M. from the short story 'I have no mouth and I must scream' because of its pure despise and malevolence towards humans.


Pretty fucked up story, worth reading if you haven't :)


Also Dr Claw from Inspector Gadget is a good villain:

The deep raspy voice, the gauntlet, and never seeing his face (gives a similar air of mystery as Vader does under his helmet) make him a badass in my book. And that fucking cat.

Mantrid from Lexx is pretty evil. He did destroy an entire universe.

OK heres my list of villans

Bill The Buthcher (Gangs of New York)

Dark Helmet (Spaceballs)

Lestat (Interview with a Vampire)

Colonel Walter E. Kurtz (Apocalypse Now)

Gary Oldman as Stansfield in The Professional

Bill the butcher was a good one.

I don't know about Kurtz and Lestat though. I always thought of Kurtz as a tragic figure more than a villain, might have to watch that again.

Lestat, is an interesting one. Tom Cruize did make him into a good villain in the film. I watched that one a few months ago and really enjoyed the character. It was more intersting because Anne Rice makes Lestat the hero of a string of books after Interview, and she gives Lestats actions some more depth that explains everything he does. I can't remember all of the details, but I do recall that he only kills murderers, he has some spider sense that lets him sniff them out. While Louis kills animals for blood, Lestat is out dealing justice to killers.

Gannondorf - Legend of Zelda (64 / Wii)

Freiza, Cell and Majin Buu from DragonBall Z because they were all so fuckin tough they could and in most cases did destroy whole planets.

Also Darth Maul from the Phantom menace because he's bringing sexy back

Shredder (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (the old series))

Brain Bug (Starship Troopers)
Seriously, it's not human, so it basically has no empathy, no mercy, and has countless bugs at it's command including giant burrowing beetles that can MELT YOUR LIMBS OFF.
(http://everheardofit.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/mini-starship-brain-bug.jpg)

I still reckon that bug thing looks like a massive vagina. I thought it quite fitting that a colossal vagina was the source of all the human race's problems.

I don't know how many times I could type ROFL to this :P

not enough,.. not enough

The most epic bad guy is the one you suspect but is always pulling the strings someone like... the little kid from Identity or Chalice from Deep Throat.

I pulled more than just strings in that movie :)

p.s. Ya bastard  :D

Bageled, good call on Gary Oldman there. i would say Patrick Bateman in American Psycho, Max Cady in Cape Fear, The Rednecks in Deliverance, The evil witch in Sleeping Beauty

Woody
in Natural Born Killers
