Film Guru Lad's Top Movie Villains: Part 1

I know what to say: every movie has a protagonist or a love interest, but the film needs a classic villain. Here is the top list of favourite evil villains you love to hate that performed unspeakable horrors, deceitful or heinous acts. It is the countdown of cinema's favourite baddies hated for their infamous deeds. The question is, who's the worst of the top bad guys?

#15. Colonel Miles Quaritch (Avatar)

This muscle-bound bloke Quaritch, by his full name, Colonel Miles, is a fierce and ruthless man who shows little respect to the Na'vi by respecting force and wants to wipe out the indigenous alien race. His two acts included ordering his soldiers to bomb Hometree, resulting in numerous Na'vi, including Neytiri's father, being killed off by the assault and shooting Dr Grace Augustine while she was trying to escape with Jake, Norm and Trudy from the RDA facility. Regardless of who Quatrich is, he is a formidable and ruthless militaristic leader to his men. Too bad they follow his orders to do unspeakable horrors and annihilate the Na'vi race.

#14. Ernst Stavro Blofeld
(James Bond)

Secret agent James Bond has all of the villains, but none were so lucky to be alive to face him than Ernst Stavro Blofeld. Blofeld is his greatest nemesis, always holding his white Persian cat and changing his appearance. He is also the leader of the infamous organisation known as SPECTRE. He was a terrible boss and has done many unspeakable horrors like sending his minions to their doom for failure and letting his hench-woman attempt to gun down Bond, but only for his wife Tracy to get killed in his stead. He is the only Bond villain to survive very elusively and appears in only three films, no wait. It's four pictures.

#13. Biff Tannen (Back to the 
Future Trilogy)

Dumb but not very smart, no matter how bullies bully others, whether gay, disabled or intelligent. How I hated them, and it made me angry. The worst example is Biff Tannen from the Back to the Future series, a regular person, unlike many people who torment everyone. He is cruel and calls everyone "butthead." The girl Biff desires the most is Marty's future mom, Lorraine, and the other person he has to bully and despise is her future husband and his dad, George McFly. Unfortunately, Biff isn't the only one who is unkind to the McFlys, but it does explain that the family genes run in his blood.



#12. Khan (Star Trek Into Darkness)

Depending on which second Star Trek movie you prefer, they both have the same villain, a worthy foe to James T. Kirk or Spock, but the name is "KHAAAAANNN!". This version of the character is brilliant and ruthless but also the same genetic-engineered tyrant we remember in the series. His greatest crime we see is crushing the admiral's head with his own bare hands, awfully to tell pun-related brutality that gave everyone a sheer shock. I can not help it. I am a sucker for English actors playing enemies with their terrifying accents. Benedict Cumberbatch does this version of Khan well, who added a chilling tone to this character, who might be a ravaged psychopath.
