Obviously I highly regard some of the previously mentioned villains particularly Hans Gruber, Simon Phoenix and Cyrus Grissom.

 

Eric Roberts whenever he works heel.

That's the right moment too. That's the moment that every kid watching had their heart broken. The first moment, anyway.

 

Fucking hell, Hot Rod. You knob.

My first choices have already been mentioned but wanted to add

Les Grossman from Tropic Thunder, utterly disgusting but effective.

Terminator 2 T1000

 

Honourable mentions for Dr Evil and the Master in Dragon *shudder*

If you haven't seen it yet, check out Iron Man 3. Ben Kingsley as The Mandarin is one of my favourite movie villians ever.

Won't talk anymore about how much of a horrible bastard he is, as it's a current release and don't want to encourage spoilers. Just go and see for yourself.

He was also the thai boxer who's leg Chong Li snaps in Bloodsport.

 

Fuck me, I had no idea that was the same bloke. And I must have watched Bloodsport about a thousand times as a kid.

Quite a transformation.

A lot of my favourites have been mentioned already - Bennett, Mitchum, Drago. I'm a huge fan of this guy, though:

There was a thread a few weeks back about celebrities and fictional characters who'd make good wrestlers. Gaston would be a perfect wrestling heel. Vain. Cheats to win. A big unit, though not averse to playing the chickenshit heel when the moment calls for it. Best of all, he's 100% clean, achieving his blue-chip physique the old fashioned way, with about a million eggs a week.

Gaston was a right cunt, good call.

 

Don't agree with Twinn's nomination of Micky & Mallory. Although they were serial killers, I would say they were anti-hero protagonists rather than baddies. Tom Sizemore was definitely the baddie in that film.

 

I'll add this prick:

I don't like Plan B. He looks like a wrong'un and I think his music is terrible. But credit where credit is due, he was perfect at playing a right horrible shit in Harry Brown. Compellingly believable, I was dying for someone to give him a right good kicking. Nasty piece of work and you just know South London have plenty like him.

Because of my recent obsession with rock climbing, I rewatched Cliffhanger for the first time in many years last night/this morning*. John Lithgow as Qualen is a brilliant baddie in this film.

Even though he's not actually English he does "Sinister Englishman villain" really well. You know he's a cold motherfucker, but the moment where he offs Kristal finally cements that he doesn't give a shit about anything but the money.

 

 

 

* my falling asleep during the film has no relation to its quality. It really is great.
