I'll add tow TV villains:

1) Nina Myers from "24". SHe kills and betrays everybody, but what I found disturbing about her is her lack of empathy for her victims, or that she is not a psycho, just cold-blooded when it comes to murder.

2) Scorpius from "Farscape". There's many villains out there, but his methods are unique. Not every villain captures the hero and implants a clone of himslef in his mind.
Due to the horrifying nature of this film, no one will be admitted to the theatre.

HEY HO LETS GO!
1.Mr.Hyde-Totally evil dirt bag.
2.Frank Booth-Watching him made me wanna kill him.
3.Henrey-though,to tell you the truth,Otis disgusted me much,MUCH, more.
4.Max Cady-I thought DeNiro did a bang up job as well.
5.Wicked Witch of the West-Iv'e hated this b***h since I was a kid.
6.Reagan's demons-They're demons! Nuff sed.
7.Termenator-no soul. no emotion. a robot.
8.Mike Meyers-I saw this guy,in Halloween,ON Halloween, in '79.It was a trip.
9.Freddy-the first one is the only one,in my book.A child killer! How low can you go?
10.ALIEN
11.this is a lotta dam typing! Nosferatu! BAD MAN! BAAAAD!
12.Scarface-I hate junkies.
13.Dr.Szell-I also hate dentists.
14.Alex de Large-I didn't feel one bit sorry when he got what was coming to him.
15.Karloff in the Body Snatcher-HE KILLED BELA! YOU BASTERD!!
16.Zed-not Lord Zed...the scumbag in Pulp Fiction.I like Lord Zedd,actually.Don't YOU wanna kill the Power Rangers?
17.Mr.Potter-What kinda dirtball would treat Jimmy Stewart like that? He's JIMMY STEWART,fer
Pete's sake!Gosh darn it! It's...It,s just not right! DARN IT!
18.I have to include Peter Lorre as Dr. Gogol in MAD LOVE.I know he was'nt on the list,but a list of vllians without Lorre is like Captain Crunch without milk.
19.DRACULA-LUGOSI(Iwould also include his portrayal of M. Legendre in White Zombie....a totally evil charecter,along with Dr.Vollin in the Raven,one of Bela's most over the top,insane,parts EVER.
20.Leatherface-and the rest of his loony toon clan.

People I WOULD'T include...
1.the Phantom of the Opera-love can drive a man mad.I felt sorry for the guy.
2.the Creature -Hey...he was minding his own buisness...and people got in his face.
3.Baby Jane-She was insane...Hollywood used her and dumped her.Look at Willis! And his sister!
4.Col.Kurtz-War blew his mind.
6.Jaws-He's a shark.He eats.Thats what he does.(I guess you could say that about Jeffery Dhmer too....)
7.Norman-Norman never killed anybody,his mother did.
8.HAL-I actually felt more empathy for HAL than I did for any of the wooden astronauts.He was the only charecter in the film that I enjoyed. 2001 was quite overrated,unless your'e on acid.
9.Jaws-the Bond Jaws-he ended being a good guy.And how can you not like the guy from EAGGHH!!
10.Darth Vader-yes he is a bad guy.I just don't like Star Wars. ANY of them.I guess I'm the odd man out on this.
11.Kahn-same reason...I just don't like Star Trek.The only guy I like from Trek was Shatner.I dunno...I just don't lke space operas.Though I DID enjoy Planet of the Vampires.Go figure.
Maybe it was the cool black leather space suits.
12.I'm going waaay out onna limb here,but I think Dr.Frankenstien should be included on the villan list.Karloffs monster was a totally sympathetic portrayal,yet Peter Cushing was a real heartless son of a b*tch. Vincent Price in House of Wax was also wronged...drove mad but evil done to him. On the villan list,I would also include the house from the Haunting (the book is SO much scarier than either movie,though Robert Wise's film outshines the remake by miles) and the hotel in the Shining. I'm not surprized that Godzilla didn't make the list.Who does't wanna stomp tokyo?(Oops! I wasn't trying to reference another board! Really!)
Well...I gotta run to the store and get some eggs,cuz my kids are awake...and hungry. I like left over pizza and tater chips for breakfast...but they like eggs,toast,and fried taters.Go figger.
Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)
Interviewer-"Does Dracula ever end for you?
Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."
Slobber, Drool, Drip!

Sorry but this list is only for film...if I included TV there would be way too much to add here.  Film is hard enough and I am sure we are missing many quality performances.

Yes!  Yes!
The Hammer Dr. Frankenstein as portrayed by Cushing!!  
Cared only for himself and "the work", all other people were either useful or not -- Yes, a monomaniacal S.O.B. -- Very different from the Dr. F's in Universal, who felt pangs and moral anguish.  Cushing is only upset if things don't go his way -- a true monster.

I have no idea what this means.
