Bad Guy Hall Of Fame - Movies Only, No TV

Lee Marvin as Strawn in Cat Balou. So bad he doesn't even have a nose...

Harvey Korman as Hedley LaMarr in "Blazing Saddles'. An' maybe Mel Brooks as Gov. W'm J. LePetomaine, too, same movie..Hafta mention Slim Pickens as Taggart, & Madelyn Kahn as Lili Von Schtupp-"The Incwedibwe Wiving Wegend"- The Teutonic Titwillow, who changes sides after being introduced to Sheriff Bart's, uhh, "Schwanstucker.." Another Brooks villian was Kenneth Mars, who played, IIRC, the police commissar in "Young Frankenstein"....


+1 on Korman, what a performance. But the Gov. played by Brooks was just a buffoon, as most are...

Whoever the actor was who pushed the old lady in a wheelchair down a staircase, cackling manically all the while. Richard ?

Richard Widmark as Tommy Udo in "Kiss of Death", a Henry Hathaway picture. That was the role that made Widmark.
 
For me, the baddest of the bad would have to be the psychopath "Cole Wilson" (played by actor Lance Henriksen) in Jim Jarmusch's weird and powerful western movie: "Dead Man".
 
It is interesting that many of the "bad guys" (excepting the machines and aliens) mentioned here are characters which suffer from some badly affected mental condition. Would this imply that in the movie world many of the bad guys would have turned into good ones if their mental condition was normal? Is it implied that "normal people are good"? Perhaps a too simplistic assumption, to say the least, at least for those cases, IMHO, .

Sean Bean - Patriot Games, Goldeneye, Essex Boys, etc. Has played a lot of ruthless, psychopathic types.

Ise Mori as MechaGodzilla. You could feel the power and conflict in the character form the beginning frames. He was big, metallic and bad ass.

The masterful way he challenged the audience and the final heartwrenching death scene. I could barely hold back the tears.....
