but I'm sure I have others if I really pondered it.
He was a convincing baddie in an Untouchables episode.
lex from smallville, darthvader, and Gargamel.
Speaking of The Devil, you cannot beat Walter Huston as “Old Scratch” in “The Devil and Daniel Webster.” What a delicious film.
Not only is Old Scratch evil, but he gets poor farmer Jabez Stone to sell him his soul. On a day of particularly bad luck, Jabez curses and says that he would sell his soul to the devil to have a better life; immediately after the the devil appears posing as a man named Mr. Scratch and offers seven years of good fortune and money to Jabez for his soul and the farmer signs the contract. Then things turn bleak. There are two bad guys, Old Scratch and Jabez Stone.
Have you ever seen THREE STRANGERS? If not...try to catch it when TCM shows it. DITTO re THE MASK OF DIMITRIOUS! :-)
Very Good!
“Liberty Valence” played by Lee Marvin with John Wayne in the film, “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence.”
Valence was one mean dude.
Jack Palance in “Shane” - absolutely!
I cannot watch horror movies because of that character. He was terrifying. #1 baddie for me.
Meh, so so.
Anton Chigurh, Dr. Lecter, Jack Torrance in the Shining
The Humungus from “The Road Warrior.”
He played a Columboesque detective in PENELOPE,long before he played Colunbo on T.V. and it's a very cute movie.
Try to see him in ALL THE MARBLES; it's a fantastic, sort of offbeat movie!
She was a great actress and a VERY nice lady, in real life.
Edward G Robinson in The Ten Commandments
In that case, I believe it 100%. :-)
The evil stepmother and the two ugly step sisters in Disney’s Cinderella.
Lionel Barrymore - Mr. Potter

I prefer Hopkins in LION IN WINTER; bad, cruel, venal, and just plain old EVIL as a young Richard the Lionheart. :-)
