Top Ten Movie Villains

Sun Media's Kevin Williamson has compiled a top ten list of movie villains, which includes, in no particular:

Anton Chigurh- Javier Bardem's bobbed-haired sociopath from the 2007 film No Country for Old Men.

Roy Batty - The tormented 'replicant' - artificial life forms made to be slaves - is hauntingly brought to the screen by Rutger Hauer in the 1982 futuristic private-dic film Blade Runner.

Annie Wilkes - An Oscar-winning performance by Kathy Bates, who portrays an obsessed fan in the 1990 adaptation of the Stephen King novel Misery.

See the Canoe Jam story to see if your favourite villain made the list.

I am personally very upset that Mr. Williamson failed to mention The Stomach, the hot-dog eating antagonist to the heroic Larry Finkelstein, in Ivan Reitman's 1979 summer camp romp Meatballs.
