My top five would be:

Kevin Spacey as Keyzer Soze, Usual Suspects
Marlon Brando as Colonel Kurtz, Apocalypse Now
John Noble as Denethor, Return of the King
Javier Bardem as Anton Chigruh
Heath Ledger as the Joker

I think the only one I really need to justify at all is John Noble, but I think that Lord Denethor totally makes that movie, even with his limited screen time; he's the human embodiment of all the corruption and madness that's overwhelming middle-earth, and the scene where he's eating tomatoes is brilliant.

i think the term villain would be doing him too much justice. if there were a "Best Movie Douchbags in your mind" thread, then he would belong there

Another vote for HAL.

Dr. Evil (a great satire and composite of all movie villians)

Jaws - the Great White Shark

Animal House - Niedermayer (shot by his own men in Vietnam)

Ghostbusters - Gozer

I'll add a few not mentioned yet:

Little Bill (Gene Hackmen) in Unforgiven
Stansfiled (Gary Oldman) in Leon
Amon Goeth (Ralph Feinnes) in Schindler's List
The Raptors in Jurassic Park (mostly the first one)
Pretty much any Disney Villain, it's even hard to cut it down to only a few.

Kind of random but Jason Issacs in The Patriot was a pretty good villan.

If it were TV villains, the Vancouver Canucks would run away with that award for their performances on Hockey Night in Canada.

That vulture-thing from the Dark Crystal used to freak me out when I was a kid, and it still gives me the creeps (the Skeksis Emperor?). He had that machine that would suck juice from Gelflings.

Also, put me down for Gargamel from the Smurfs. He looked like a pedo and wanted to boil Smurfs while they were alive.

Klaus Kinski in pretty much every movie he made. And another vote for Dennis Hopper in Blue Velvet.

I like the original list, but one of my all time favorites is missing:

Roy Batty - Blade Runner - Rutger Hauer

The tragic villain, such a great job by Rutger Hauer in acting that part.

Or Gary Oldman in the Fifth Element - although it was just a little too campy to be top of the pile IMO.
