Any list of movie villains that does not mention Keyser Soze, from Usual Suspects, is suspect in and of itself.

Seriously?

Marathon Man?

T2?

This list is pure bull.

(They included Michael Myers, and Freddy Krueger, but no Jason Vorhees? They are smoking weed to include the first two, but not enough of it to not include the latter!)

In my eyes, Darth Vader is a much eviler figure then Voldemort. Vader killed a lot more people then Voldemort ever did. You got to figure all the worlds he conquered, all the Rebel fleets he had destroyed. He was second in command of a whole empire! Voldemort had what, his Death Eaters?

Umm ... my reaction to that list can be best expressed in three words: What the *--*????

Though, I can't help but notice Megatron didn't make the cut ... sorry, Commander.

Vader should be number one. Voldemort only like little boys named harry and would not be any sort of match to Vader. To go along with UM, Jason Vorhees? Where is he, oh he's the new number 2.

Any villain list that doesn't include Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lector in Silence of the Lambs is straight up crap... considering he is the AFI #1 on the top 100 villains of ALL TIME...

That list is utter crap, anything Harry Potter related should be fed to the pigs, then their poo should be burned and cast into the depths of hell.

I would love to know what mental ward they attended to create this list.

saying that voldemort is on that list you should have just added scar from the lion king and farquad from shrek lol and how about prince charming from 2 and 3 and agent smith killed millions, but vader is the best of all time

@Rodimus: Slytherin!

j/k

As far as the list goes...........

What about the radioactive mutated cannibal family in the movie "The Hills Have Eyes" in both the original and re-make?

Even I had to walk out of that one!

Then there's the creepy guy in "Phantasm"
The nutter that laughed while he killed in "Black Christmas"
Alan Arkin in that horror flick "Wait Until Dark"
Any of the customers in "Hostel"

Big 'ol edit: John Ryder in "The Hitcher" The re-make was terrific!

If you haven't see it its as good as as the original with Rutger Hauer and Thomas C. Howell

My question is what collection of wussy milksops made this list?

Sure they got a few villains right but my mother could slap the face of half the people on this list and not even bother to take the cigarette out of her mouth as she made them cry.

You guys'd like my mom!

Thats just too funny. What about the monsters from C.H.U.D.?

I don't understand what you mean, Hannibal is number 4 on that list.

Not that it means all that much considering this list was assembled by people with no more big screen experience than a bunch of chimps.

I agree with all counts of this is stupid. Let's make our own list. I'm sure we can come up with a much better one.

I will start off by nominating sir Ian McKellen (please excuse my misspell) for his role as Magneto in the X-Men trilogy.

My top 5 ( in no particular order )

1 - Megatron ( thought I had better include that

)
2 - Jason Voorhees
3 - Freddy Krueger
4 - Hannibal Lecter
5 - Errrrm.......... Ah Doctor Evil ......

That is what I think anyway

Commander Megatron · Post by **Commander Megatron** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 11:36 am

In no particukar order Snarl? I think numbers 2-4 are in no particular order. With number 1 you are spot on!!!

Lennyluck · Post by **Lennyluck** » Mon Jul 14, 2008 3:38 pm

This was not the best of list ever made....namely a better list I just happen to have lying around would start
Eggs
cheese
milk
and end with toothpaste.....

Okay, foul on the play.

Everyone that said Megatron is a great big screen villain seems to be forgetting that in his two big screen appearances, he was only there for fifteen minutes, and had his hind parts handed to him each time!
