James Finlayson from Laurel and Hardy always played a funny villain. God damn you if you haven't seen Laurel and Hardy. |

Yes, Javier Bardem is a bad motherfucker.
If you want to see a truly brutal performance by him, make sure to watch Before Night Falls. Bitches be runnin', but he brings 'em all down. With beautiful poetry. |
It's called a cattle gun, I believe.
And yeah. Bardem kicks ass. |

As with all genre, horror can be broken up into subgenre. Please do not lump the entire genre into vapid slasher flicks as they make up only a small (albeit loud and popular) portion of the genre. Perhaps you ought to try a nice Psychological Horror (my personal favorite subgenre)? In those the horror is derived from psychological concepts (even if they're represented via monsters), preying upon natural emotions and aspects of the mind to disturb the viewer/reader. Try something like Jacob's Ladder or The Machinist. If it weren't terribly off-topic I would go into the other subgenre. But its bad form to derail a topic just because I'm all butthurt about overgeneralization. Smiley guy from Psycho? Do you mean the killer from the Scream movies? |

i was talking to AlexFili via PM about this next favourite bad guy of mine, Mark 'Chopper' Read from the film Chopper. a real australian criminal that, i believe, is still alive.
dont get me wrong, he did some awful things (nothing compared to horror films, but this was real), but he seems to be someone you love to hate. he spent time in jail, murdered a number of people with a 410 shotgun and numerous pistols, and even got an inmate to cut his own (chopper's) ears off so he could get out of jail, making out it was done against his will. i think he suffered from a number of mental illnesses (probably paranoia being one due to the way he acted), and is a chicken farmer in some safehouse somewhere now. this fits into this topic because he's out of a film. |
:
First of all, it's shot with the worst quality I've ever seen, the title character violates the corpse of a 3 weeks dead hooker he murdered, who was kept 'fresh' with natural gas. The Audio is dubbed very poorly, the sound effects are all way too loud and the film itself is basically just one enormous example of the director being a sick fuck. You're the only other person I know who at least knows about it. Neat. EDIT: APART FROM JORDAN WHO MIGHT BE READING THIS RIGHT NOW :
|
Try 'Nekromantic'. That is some seriously sick shit.
Also, I intend to see 'Martyrs' tonight, and I hear that it trumps everything ever made in this department. |
Scar immediately comes to mind, as does the tag team duo of the Abrahamic god and devil.

EDIT: Also Alex in Golden Sun takes the cake for being a Magnificent Bastard. Throughout the series he continually plays at least three sides against each other (Despite being a late player in the game) to very nearly become a victorious God over all. Only brutally stopped at the end by a Pound of Flesh Twist which left his fate open to interpretation by the players. You first see him in the first of four lighthouses you have to stop the bad guys from lighting (Who are actually just playing into Alex's hand) where he is introduced as a pretty unspectacular minor villain whose only real powers are healing and teleportation. He outlasts the main villains of the first game however and very early on in the second game it becomes apparent that he's manipulating you and the new (false) bad guys with ease, going so far as purposefully healing your party before a climactic battle at the third lighthouse so you can fight the villains at good strength and then appearing after the battle with them and threatening your weakened party with destruction if you don't let them escape. He then disappears and isn't heard of till the end of the game where it is revealed that he set events in motion so that he would be at the receiving end of the lighthouses power and to make matters worse, to save the world you have to defeat the final boss and give him what he wants. Also he manages to be a fantastic villain without spilling a drop of blood the whole way through both games, which merits him a distinction in its own right. |
Sauron has a pretty cool design, I have to give him that. Also supermace.

Haha Christine I remember that film, miss Herbie gone bad.
I often cheer for the bad guys in films, it's not that I hate to see the good guys win or anything, I just find their motives a lot more fun to dissect. And well, I might be a little bit tired of the shallow and clichéed protagonists we usually see these days too. But I often find that some really well done antagonists move me far more than your regular good guy does. What good guy has ever during the course of a film, managed to turn any of your morals or beliefs upside down? They don't exactly exist to serve that purpose in stories do they? I picked 2 of my absolute favorites. One is animated and the other live-action. This is going to be somewhat lenghty so beware, I tried to keep it varied with a few fun examples throughout so I hope you won't skip over it all. Zigzag http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...s/01zigzag.jpg Have no fear! Zigzag is here! This is the coolest animated villain ever. Just look at his entrance during the intro to The Thief and The Cobbler. I mean damn, who does not want to crash into a party like that? Looks like he just came fresh out of the ministry of silly walks! I'm not sure I want to know just how many pencil tests this guy went through before he was greenlit by the director, Richard Williams, but whatever amount of zero's preceded that value, I'm sure it was worth it because this is what animation really should be all about, which it unfortunately rarely is. Whenever I look at this guy, I see just extremely well portrayed caricature of different emotions. I can't help but feel evil, deceptiveness, and manipulation exploding out of the film frame. He's like a puppet master acting according to his own image, I mean literally he's like a puppet himself! And none of it relies on his looks, it's all about the way he moves! I've never seen a character quite like that before, it just boggles my mind the more I think about it. One of my favorite parts from the movie is when he fiddles around with his playing cards. How does one even begin to conceptualize something like that? The animators must've been on crack. Roy Batty http://www.iainclaridge.co.uk/blog/w...ploads/roy.jpg If only you could see what I have seen with your eyes. There's not much of a point in trying to explain this man/android after what's been said during the final scenes of Blade Runner. People who have seen the film most likely knows why I picked him. For the rest of you, you have absolutely no excuse not to see this old classic! Just watch it for this guy alone. I heard the actor, Rutger Hauer, perhaps mostly recognized from The Hitcher, wasn't too pleased with all the bad guy roles he'd been given during his career. Most likely due to the performance shown in Blade Runner, he paved his way through villain-ville. You could call it both a blessing and a curse, but I'm pretty sure he is glad to have been given the chance to play a rarity such as Roy Batty. It's not just a bad guy who does evil things like look scary and kill people, just as a bad guy is supposed to! But he really nails the right amount of powerful yet subtle empathy the viewer has to feel in order for a protagonist to come out as human as he does. You may dislike Roy Batty during your first viewing of the film, but you'll love him every single time you watch it afterwards. Time to die. |
