    A load of abstentions later....
    Mick Taylor (Wolf Creek) gets my vote because if there is such a thing as The Fear of God well...

    So a group of friends organised to go to the cinema back in the day to see The Departed (agreed on the screening in advance, etc.), I turn up and one of them backs out saying she went the night before and wants to go to something else... what is the blood effing something else do they all decide they want to see??? Wolf Creek. :mad:
    I get 'convinced' to give it a go (I had serious doubts but I had travelled far enough, late enough to get there, back in the days when I didn't drive). I don't do horror/torture... Needless to say I walked out about half way through and told them to find me at the bar when they were done. Never got around to seeing The Departed on the big screen. :(

    I had a similar experience like that - in a house drinking cans & everyone else wants to watch one of Saw movies I think it was. Sick fcukers, & I had to sit through that. Even the drink didn't help me. Some people have no respect :D

    Late to the party as usual.

    Colin Sullivan is Matt Damon's character in The Departed even so...

    My votes are

    Mick Taylor (Wolf Creek)
    The Evil Queen (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)
    Pennywise The Dancing Clown (IT)
    Travis Bickle (Taxi Driver)

    Pennywise The Dancing Clown (IT) Vs Damien (The Omen)
    Vampires (The Lost Boys) Vs Travis Bickle (Taxi Driver) ~ Abstain It's a while I don't see Travis as a baddie and no strong opinions on The Lost Boys

    Haha, you're right. I had an image for Matt Damon but Boards wouldn't show it so had to change it, not sure how this guy showed up :)

    If anyone would like to change their votes based on the image error, that's fine.

    Travis Bickle is an antihero not a villain.

    Well said. So were Thelma and Louise. There should be a greatest anti-hero contest :cool:

    Yeah I'd agree. However, he made the American Film Institute's top 100 villains list so I thought it was fair game to include him.

    We will be kicking off with more round 1 matches shortly, hopefully you can join in the voting :)

    Hedy Carlson (Single White Female) - she was a freaky friend
    Morgana (Excalibur) - Simon never quite lived up to the Gruber family name
    Maj von Hapen (Where Eagles Dare) - one nasty nazi
    Cruelly De Vil ( 101 Dalmations) - Frank's monster was more of a tragic figure than an outright villain, Cruella however was a stone-cold bitch

    Freddy Krueger (A Nightmare on Elm Street)

    I haven’t seen both films in the other match ups and I’ve never seen more than a few minutes of a godfather movie.
