    • Darth Vader. The Star Wars trilogy (1977-1983) Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge Of The Sith (2005), Rogue One (2016) And so we come to the villain you voted as the best of all time.
    • The Joker. Batman (1966), Batman (1989), The Dark Knight (2008), Joker (2019) From his comicbook roots as a maniac, through the campy incarnation brought to movie and TV screens by Cesar Romero, The Joker was always a figure of fun (shout out also to Mark Hamill's cartoon take).

    • Hans Landa. 'Inglourious Basterds' (2009) Quentin Tarantino has made several great crime/thriller movies, but with 2009's Inglourious Basterds, he proved he could also make an all-time great war movie.
    • Nurse Ratched. 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' (1975) Jack Nicholson might be well known for playing villains, but in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, he got to be the film's central protagonist.
    • HAL 9000. '2001: A Space Odyssey' (1968) An influential science-fiction classic, 2001: A Space Odyssey is a film without a traditional villain, at least for the first two of its four main sections.
