Dude, this is a great list of villians. Its got me thinking. I may need to post my top 10 villians. I know quite a few of these will make my list.
I like that the amount of nightmares contribute to the awesomeness of the villain. My top 3 (in no particular order) are
The Shark from Jaws. When I was young I used to be afraid to swim in pools at night. I logically knew that a great white could not live in a swimming pool, yet I did think it could be possible for someone to sneak one in the pool just before I got there.
The Predator: I have had countless battles with the Predator in my dreams over the years. They always end with him gutting me with his arm blade.
Freddy Krueger: Kind of silly to think about this as being scary now. But it freaked me out when I first saw it. I was afraid to have my mind wonder at any moment. I was also convinced that his remains were in the basement of the Wawa up the street.
Steams, I always wondered why you were so terrified of that stupid Wawa. I remember when you lived in marchwood apartments, once hazy evening, you refused to go with us on a 2 or 3 am food run. You rambled on about how that Wawa scared you. I thought you were just being lazy. No everything is so clear.
Anton Chigurh from “No Country For Old Men” might deserve a look.
