Who is the greatest fictional villain in all of human storytelling?
Who really terrifies? Who really defines evil? The Joker? The Clown Prince of Crime? Hannibal Lector? Dracula? Who defines what a true villain is?

Aaron Stampler in the Primal Fear series... If you think he was evil in the movie, try reading all the books.
Moriarity...The true personification of a nemesis. Emperor Palpatine...Only a truly evil man would have a father try to kill his son for not joining him.

Why its yours truly, Keyser Soze.
Keaton always said: "I don't believe in God, but I'm afraid of him." Well I believe in God, and the only thing that scares me is Keyser Soze. Edited By Keyser Soze on Mar. 25 2002 at 10:26 ![[Image: 723475742_8cb2b0be6c.jpg]](http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1019/723475742_8cb2b0be6c.jpg)

First off British accent, truly a sign of a good villain. Other than that it's important to have a complete lack of morality yet a knowing you're doing something wrong. There's a difference between a villain who doesn't understand what he's doing and one who just does it because, let's face it, it's fun. They know they're evil, they know they're going to hell but they don't care, they live for the day and enjoy watching others in complete pain and misery. Killing is one thing, getting near orgasmic pleasure from the spilled blood of your enemy or just a random person who happened to be near you at the wrong time is another.
Now-- Literature: Iago- Othello (Shakespeare- fine make fun of me for using Shakespeare but he was an awesome villain) Claudius- Hamlet (once again shakespeare but he was definitely quite evil) Satan- I mean, it's Satan. The Law Officials/The Court/The Government- Franz Kafka's The Trial Films: Ernst Stavro Blofeld- the Connery Bond films and that Lazenby one. Unfortunately due to a legal dispute they couldn't use him post Diamonds are Forever. Stay Puft Marshmellow Man- Ghostbusters. I mean, it's a fucking marshmellow man stepping on churches. you don't get much more evil than that. Frank Booth- Blue Velvet Norman Stansfield- The Professional TV: Windem Earle- second season of twin peaks. despite that season's faults, he was a quite cool opponent to Dale Cooper Dr. Forrester/Tv's Frank for the goofy factor Edited By IkeaBoy on Mar. 25 2002 at 2:12 ![[Image: wb2.jpg]](http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ikeaboymoviepic/files/wb2.jpg) I KNOW EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!

Just remembered one last night.
Rutger Hauer in "The Hitcher". Especially the scene near the end with the truck and the girlfriend. Just pure, white knuckle evil.

OK.. before I start.. let it be known that Darth Vader is the ULTIMATE VILLAIN in my book.. prepared to kill his own son if he fails to fall to evil himself..
that being said.. other good villains: The Hitcher.. good call Arthur Hannibal Lecter Ian McKellan's character in Apt Pupil (can't remember the name right now) The Master (from Dr. Who british TV series) Magneto (from Marvel Comics, NOT tv or movies) The Joker (Jack Nicholson's portrayal epitomized what the Joker truly is) Grand Moff Tarkin (Star Wars) Let's face it.. destroy a civilized planet to make a point?? EVAL!! ![[Image: shadowkeep.jpg]](http://groups.yahoo.com/group/magownimages/files/shadowkeep.jpg) You're workin' with a professional here. You bunch of losers!! NICE FUCKING MODEL!!!

Face, I agree that the Emperor is a mean sonofabitch, but Darth just completely takes the cake as the best villain.
Ikea, good call with Stansfield from The Professional - Gary Oldman plays such a good nutcase, and in that he was a sick fuck, killing people after listening to classical music and popping some drugs. Saddam Hussein was a mean mother fucker in South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut as well. Truly a bad guy, stayed evil right to the bitter end. Ben Affleck was pretty good as Bartleby in Dogma, had a power-hungry attitude... and you don't get much more evil than picking people up, flying a few hundred feet into the air, and dropping them to the concrete below - SPLAT! :crackhead:

How about Sauron, Vigo, Chucky, Seph., and the sorcerer from "the last unicorn"

Quote:Aaron Stampler in the Primal Fear series... If you think he was evil in the movie, try reading all the books.I didn't realize that was a book series...I'll have to check it out! Norton was amazing in that movie, definitely rent it if you haven't seen it Quote:the sorcerer from "the last unicorn"Mommy Fortuna? I loved that movie... Ikeaboy, already mention Iago, best Shakespeare villain The Horned King from The Black Cauldron The Nothing from The Neverending Story Morgana & Mordrid in King Arthur I like movies where every character's a bad guy...

Greatest literary villian has to be 'Iago' from Othello, he is just so masterful and evil.
Movie Villian - I always loved Sydney Greenstreet as Kaspar Gutman in the Maltese Falcon. ![[Image: BT-vivalaevolucion-gallery-2756.jpg]](http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i242/gonzostyle/BT-vivalaevolucion-gallery-2756.jpg) http://www.dvdspot.com/member=Gonzostyle http://www.myspace.com/brooklyngonzo http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=770777388 diceisgod Wrote:I LOVE YOU GONZY WONZY SNOOKIE WOOKIE DUMPLIN BUNS!
