    Darth Vader is probably the ultimate villian. I also like the villian in Die Hard, Hanz. That actor also played the Sheriff of Nottingham in Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves. I'll think of more.....

    Yet another vote for Darth Vader.

    I did like Christopher Plummer as General Chang in Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country.

    Yes, Darth Vader is about the best. When he came walking through the rubble at the beggining of "SW: ANH", that rocked! Also loved when he choked the rebel guy.

    Have to agree with Hans from "Die Hard" also.

    How about the Alien from "Alien" and "Aliens". Michael Meyers from the original "Halloween" is great also.

    Rutger Hauer (sp?), in 'The Hitcher'

    Or the maniac driving the 1960's gas tanker in the classic 'Duel'.

    2 way cool bad guys.

    You guys are gooooooood. Rutger Hauer in THE HITCHER is s*i*c*k, and the ALIEN is definitely a nightmare (as is Michael Meyers), and Darth Vader of course...

    But you know who's even more EVIL?

    In "Star Wars: A New Hope," great monster-movie vet Peter Cushing plays The Grand Moff Tarkin, and he's SO EVIL that he gets to refer to Darth Vader as, "My friend," when he addresses him! :eek: Anyone who is allowed to call Darth Vader "my friend," is certainly AS EVIL AS THEY COME.

    I'd say the T800 from Terminator (Arnold) was a much scarier villian than that guy. That guy was too small and unintimidating.

    Steven Segal in ANY movie he has EVER been in... is my all-time favorite bad guy...

    bad actor, bad hair, bad lines, bad attitude, bad breath...

    he's a major huck fead.

    even when he's the good guy, he manages to be bad.

    The movie itself may not have been that good, but Gary Oldman was kick **** BG in AF1. Also, he was excellent in The Professional too.

    I don't know about my favorite, but some good honorable mentions :

    - Javier Bardem's character in No Country for Old Men (Cigur? something like that)
    - Bill the Butcher in Gangs of New York (Daniel-Day Lewis)
    - Lecter in Silence of the Lambs (Anthony Hopkins)
    - DeNiro in Cape Fear (never saw the original... which I think was Robert Mitchum?)

    And a great sleeper pick I saw listed somewhere else : the Colonel / Captain or whatever from Pan's Labyrinth. That guy was f***ing EVIL.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I always thought Tim Roth was particularly slimy and evil in Rob Roy. Also... Gary Oldman's turn as a pimp in True Romance was legendary.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
