the vilest villains in (film top 5 )
1) Darth Vader
Vader had all the right elements an evil villain needs to scare an audience of popcorn munching movie-goers. The helmet, the suit, the voice and that heavy, mechanized breathing all made for an iconic big screen baddie. His ruthlessness in controlling the Empire and his lack of mercy earned him his crown as the most iconic dark overlord cinema has ever seen.
2) The Joker (as potrayed by Heath Ledger )
The Joker’s laugh has always managed to invoke fear into the hearts of kids everywhere. But the late, great Heath Ledger managed a cackle that scared the fully grown. This villain turned seemingly harmless childhood objects into one of the most dangerous arsenals ever to face the Dark Knight. A trickster with a talent for thievery, the Joker's twisted sense of humour turned him into that "better class of criminal" Gotham seemed desperate for. His lack of remorse and sociopathic tendencies make him one of the most spine-chilling villains Hollywood has ever seen.
3) Hannibal Lecter
Probably the most gentlemanly of the lot, Hannibal Lecter was introduced to us as a mild-mannered but deadly resident of a high-security prison. The fact that Lecter is a cultured and brilliant psychiatrist with a penchant for literature and classical music makes it even more disturbing when his cannibalistic, serial killing ways are revealed. With a biting wit (pun intended) and a frightening gaze, Hopkins' Hannibal is the stuff great nightmares are made of.
4) The Terminator (T101)
The original Terminator made Arnold Schwarzenegger a star. Arnie played the T101, a cyborg assassin sent from the future to kill the mother of a hero who holds the hope of all mankind. Not exactly the stuff of great lore but it certainly raked in the millions. He stops at nothing to reach his targets and this ruthless robot makes killing look far too easy. His efficiency and his unrelenting attempts to assassinate Connor before she bares her child makes you shudder at the thought of ever getting on this bot's bad side.
5) Lord Voldemort
This wizard was so evil that the very mention of his name invoked fear in the hearts of those who knew of him. Master of the dark arts, the coldblooded Voldermort was both smart and powerful. He did however have the biggest inferiority complex in Children's literature and some would say that was his downfall. His fearless use of forbidden spells and his Jedi-worthy mind-tricks made this wizard in a gown quite the frightening figure. Even more terrifying is his need to mercilessly hunt down his nemesis who also happens to be a teenage boy. One of the most iconic characters in publishing, Voldermort has certainly left his dark mark, in the world of Harry Potter and in ours.
among the 5..to me Dr Hannibal Lecter give me that 'hair raise on my back' kinda of feeling..coz he is very real..as in your 'next door neighbour might be one also kind of real'...
any friends here have other villains to share ?
