    The Zec (Jack Reacher) -great understated and creepy turn by Herzog
    Angel Eyes (The Good, The Bad and the Ugly) - T and L were anti-heroes surely?
    Richard Strickland (The Shape of Water) - A horrible human being and totally crackers too. Excellent baddie.

    Hannibal Lecter - they were both great but Lecter is a top notch character and some wonderful scenery chewing from Hopkins
    John Ryder (The Hitcher) - one of the best and most mysterious baddies ever
    John Doe (Se7en) - Spacey is always good at playing baddies and creeps, stick to what you know.

    Didn't you say in the sequels tournament you've never watched any Disney films?

    So, how would you know if they're crap or not? ;)

    Not entirely true, the first film I saw in the cinema was Disney's Robin Hood. Even at a young age it bored me to tears. There's just not enough cartoon violence in Disney films for my liking. And don't get me started on all the bloody singing*!

    * I will make an exception for some quality songs from The Jungle Book.

    Mick Taylor (Wolf Creek) - Mick is great
    Pumpkinhead (Pumpkinhead) - don't see enough of the evil queen for her to qualify imo
    Pennywise The Dancing Clown (IT) - rough battle this, Pennywise takes for being a clown.
    Travis Bickle (Taxi Driver) - The vampires in the Lost Boys are kinda cooky and weird, wouldn't have them as fantastic villains tbh

    Mick Taylor (Wolf Creek) - that guy was creepy af
    Pennywise The Dancing Clown (IT) - more iconic than Damo
    Vampires (The Lost Boys) - I would put TB in the anti-hero camp. Sport would be more the villain of the piece

    A load of abstentions later....
    Mick Taylor (Wolf Creek) gets my vote because if there is such a thing as The Fear of God well...

    So a group of friends organised to go to the cinema back in the day to see The Departed (agreed on the screening in advance, etc.), I turn up and one of them backs out saying she went the night before and wants to go to something else... what is the blood effing something else do they all decide they want to see??? Wolf Creek. :mad:
    I get 'convinced' to give it a go (I had serious doubts but I had travelled far enough, late enough to get there, back in the days when I didn't drive). I don't do horror/torture... Needless to say I walked out about half way through and told them to find me at the bar when they were done. Never got around to seeing The Departed on the big screen. :(

    I had a similar experience like that - in a house drinking cans & everyone else wants to watch one of Saw movies I think it was. Sick fcukers, & I had to sit through that. Even the drink didn't help me. Some people have no respect :D

    Haha, you're right. I had an image for Matt Damon but Boards wouldn't show it so had to change it, not sure how this guy showed up :)

    If anyone would like to change their votes based on the image error, that's fine.
