  • these guys truly are the worst of the worst.

  • Welcome, Tow watch mojo.

  • And today we're counting down our picks for the top 20 evil characters of all time.

  • For this list, we're looking at the Evil List characters throughout all of media, which means film, television and video games.

  • We'll also be including literary and comic book characters, but only if they were adapted into some form of media.

  • These characters also don't necessarily need to be the antagonists of their respective stories.

  • We will also be including protagonists as long as they're morally corrupt characters.

  • Also, a spoiler alert is now in effect.

  • No now, Number 20 Anton Sugar.

  • What's the most you've ever lost in a coin toss, sir?

  • The most you ever lost on a coin toss.

  • Cormack McCarthy, The Coen brothers And, of course, have your Bardem all helped create one of the greatest villains in recent years.

  • Anton is the primary antagonised of McCarthy's No Country for Old Men and the resulting movie adaptation, and we never thought a guy with that kind of haircut could be so menacing.

  • Like many of McCarthy's villains, Sugar is more of a walking talking metaphor than a three dimensional character.

  • You mean the nature of this conversation?

  • I mean, the nature you and what sugar represents is certainly up to interpretation.

  • Although many fans and scholars have debated elements of death, chance and fate is death himself.

  • Does he represent remorseless fate?

  • Either way, he's a stone cold and emotionless killer.

  • And there is nothing scarier than that.

  • You got no cause to hurt me.

  • No, but I gave my word.

  • You gave your word?

  • Your husband number 19 The Sheriff of Nottingham.

  • Cancel the kitchen scraps for lepers and orphans.

  • No more merciful beheadings.

  • I'm call off Christmas like sugar.

  • The Sheriff of Nottingham serves largely as a representation.

  • Although in this case the metaphor is a good clear.

  • The sheriff is the main antagonised in the Legend of Robin Hood.

  • And as you all know, Robin Hood steals from the rich and gives to the poor.

  • Robin Hood steals money from my pocket, forcing me to hurt the public.

  • And they love him for it.

  • Thes sheriff is the very embodiment of said Rich.

  • He is covetous, He is selfish and he imposes unaffordable tax is on.

  • The citizens of Nottinghamshire is the very personification of greed and avarice.

  • He's also been portrayed by some true movie legends, perhaps most famously by Alan Rickman in Robin Hood.

  • Prince of Thieves, Do you locks?

  • We've just been married.

  • Oh, number 18 Jigsaw.

  • Hello, Michael.

  • I want to play.

  • It doesn't get much more depraved than the Jigsaw killer.

  • Unlike most movies of its ilk, the Saw franchise actually personified Jigsaw by giving him a tragic backstory and a legitimate motivation.

  • But that doesn't make him any less sick.

  • Of all the traditional horror movie killers, Jackson is easily one of the most psychotic, not only because he forces his victims to mutilate and traumatize themselves, that is, if they even survive, but because he genuinely believes he's doing good from the disease, eating away at me inside sick people who don't appreciate their blessings.

  • He's not just a mindless, an unstoppable killer that walks around in a mask.

  • He's just a man with a really sick and twisted sense of righteousness, not to mention an obscene imagination.

  • Most people are so ungrateful to be alive, but not not anymore.

  • Number 17 freezer.

  • For that, I'm going to give you a little break.

  • I know I'll fight without using my hands.

  • Well, how does that grab you?

  • It doesn't get much more evil than a galactic space tyrant frees up.

  • One of the primary billons of the Dragonball universe was responsible for enslaving and destroying entire planets, including that of our hero Goku.

  • When searching for the Dragon balls on planet.

  • Nah, Mick freezes.

  • Kill Count was pretty much unprecedented in anime taking down the likes of Den Day Va Gina and of course, Crillon.

  • But I go on and on.

  • I am Lord of the Universe.

  • Nothing can stop me.

  • Nothing.

  • See, While his actions in the tournament of power made it seem like he could have turned over a new leaf, his attempts to once again put an end to Goku and digital with the power of Broli proof.

  • He's just a cz much of a scumbag.

  • Always Number 16 Joffrey Baratheon.

  • Let me go home.

  • I won't do any treason, I swear.

  • Mother says I'm still to marry you so you'll stay here and obey.

  • Game of Thrones was filled with complex and three dimensional characters and even the most evil characters weren't portrayed as moustache twirling cartoon villains.

  • Aside from Joffrey Baratheon Well and Ramsey you in the game if you can figure out who I am and why I'm torturing you and I win the game if you beg me to cut off your finger.

  • But Joffrey takes the cake.

  • There are absolutely zero redeeming qualities to Joffrey, and even his selfish and conniving family thinks he's a piece of crap killing.

  • You would send your brother a message, but my mother insists on keeping you alive.

  • He's a perfect representation of a spoiled child, given way too much power.

  • He kills on a whim and often without thinking of the consequences, treats his citizens and family like dirt and roots, his entertainment in the suffering of others.

  • And to make matters worse, he's a total cry baby.

  • His painful death could not come fast enough.

  • Boy number 15 Victor von Doom, also known as Doctor Doom, another wonderful creation of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

  • Doctor Doom is one of the all time greatest comic book villains.

  • Doom is all about holding and displaying.

  • His incredible power is the ruler of Liberia, and he often comes into conflict with the Fantastic Four.

  • He also manages to get his hands on all the latest powers, magical abilities and pieces of dangerous technology.

  • This is gonna be fun.

  • He's entirely self serving and is not above sacrificing his first love to obtain a killer piece of mystical armor, which was derived from her skin.

  • No big deal.

  • Hopefully, we get a decent live action version soon because those fantastic four movies are insulting to his legacy.

  • Okay, if this world must die so that mine may live, so be it.

  • Number 14.

  • Freddy Krueger, Please God.

  • Despite the campy Sequels and its colorful personality, Freddy Krueger is undeniably one of the scariest slashers in movie history.

  • For one thing, there's literally no escaping him.

  • You can't run away, you can't hide and you can't out.

  • Think him.

  • You'll have to sleep eventually.

  • And when you do, Freddie will be waiting.

  • He was a monster in real life as well as he earned the nickname Springwood Slasher due to his propensity for torturing and murdering Children.

  • His finger knives and horribly burned face are also literally the stuff of nightmares.

  • To make matters worse, he's also incredibly cocky and isn't above viciously taunting you before he cuts you up like a steak.

  • He's a walking smorgasbord of scares.

  • No number 13 Gannon again and Dorf Gannon is much like Shao Kahn.

  • He is massive.

  • He wields some incredible pieces of mystical magic, and he wants nothing more than to rule the world.

  • He originally appeared in an imposing, bore like form before obtaining his signature humanoid appearance in awe, Carina of Time, still imposing just in a different way.

  • He also serves as the very embodiment of evil, not just because of his awesome stature, dangerous abilities and the use of the tri force of power, but also because he'll use a variety of evil methods to obtain his desires, including political manipulation.

  • Gannon is easily one of gaming's most iconic and most unstoppable villains.

  • Number 12 Walter White Breaking Bad is a paragon in the art of character development.

  • We all rooted for Walton first as he was a poor, underachieving and down on his luck chemistry teacher and family man.

  • By the end of the Siri's, Walter turned into a conniving criminal mastermind who wasn't above poisoning Children, destroying his family, selling his partner into slavery or literally melting a child to fuel his ego and meteoric rise to power.

  • So go ahead.

  • Okay, if you think that I am capable, I'm doing this for the bullet in my head and kill me Right now, he's arguably the most villainous protagonist in television history, and it made for some truly difficult viewing.

  • I watched Jane die.

  • I was there and I watched her die.

  • Gus Fring was a tough and heartless S o B.

  • But wallets was on a whole other level.

  • Number 11 Kev Coppola's oh final fantasy videogame Siri's is host to a wide variety of villains ranging from the evil priests, people, mercenaries and, in one case, an evil tree.

  • Yet after 15 installments and countless spinoffs, this maniacal jester from the sixth installment of the series remains the most evil of the lot.

  • Let's teach them a thing.

  • To put it simply kept views all life, all culture of all of existence is worthless, a means to fuel his desire for destruction.

  • Hell, even betray his own allies without a second thought, just because he feels like it.

  • Yet even when he manages to devastate the world and obtain godlike powers, that's still not enough for him.

  • It's not enough destroying more.

  • You've got to destroy more number 10.

  • Hans Landa Landa is arguably Quentin Tarantino's greatest villain.

  • One day you will wear yeah, they call you to join precisely.

  • Not only is he a brilliantly written character, but he's played with inspiring reverence by Christoph Waltz, who went on to win.

  • Like all of the awards, Landa takes pride in being wicked and feared egotistic Lee, embodying his nickname The Jew Hunter by using manipulative tactics and a false sense of friendliness to root out the Jews.

  • You have a note shows could have lived with the mon day.

  • He's also a complete monster who hides behind his admittedly alluring charms.

  • He is fiercely intelligent and is able to outsmart his enemies at every turn.

  • Even in the end, he's able to worm his way out of trouble.

  • Well, mostly by betraying Hitler and the Nazi Party to the inglorious bastards.

  • The smartest villains are always the scariest.

  • Gentlemen, I have no intention of killing Hitler and killing governs and getting going and killing Bormann.

  • Not to mention we think the war single handedly for the Allies only later to find myself standing before a Jewish tribunal.

  • If you want to win the war tonight, I have to make a deal.

  • Number nine.

  • Hannibal Lecter.

  • Well, we're on the subject of intelligent villains.

  • Let's go ahead and talk about Hannibal the Cannibal Lecter.

  • People will say We're in love.

  • Hannibal is, Ah, highly intelligent man who once worked as a forensic psychiatrist before being imprisoned for, you know, eating people.

  • There's something intrinsic and primal about fearing.

  • Hannibal Lecter.

  • One look into his emotionless eyes is enough to set off some instinctual warning bells today about poor Catherine.

  • It's like looking into the eyes of a lion.

  • You just know this thing is gonna overpower you and eat you for dinner without a second thought.

  • And like Hans Landa, Hannibal often uses his intelligence to his benefit, resulting in his ever elusive nature.

  • I do wish we could chat line, but I'm having an old friend.

  • It doesn't get much scarier than Animal Lecter, not when it comes to human Dylan's anyway.

  • Number eight.

  • Michael Myers.

  • Don't let the everyday name for you.

  • Michael Myers is not human.

  • I meant this six year old child with this blank, pale emotions face the blackest eyes.

  • Well, he is, but not really.

  • Michael Myers also goes by the shape or the Boogeyman, which is perhaps a more apt description.

  • Michael is arguably the most influential slasher in movie history, as his template was used for countless villains throughout the years.

  • All right, all right, come on.

  • Where's my beer?

  • Okay, Answer me.

  • Slow but menacing and unrelenting, totally unkillable, completely emotionless and silent and seemingly without a shred of humanity.
