Watch: Cool Compilation of Movie Villains Through The Years

A hero is only as strong as his or her villain, and editor Casper Langbak has put together a nice six minute video paying tribute to what he calls "the evil of cinema."

(This video also introduced me to the excellent Kari Kimmel song "Black," which is the acoustic track that comes in at the 3:27 mark.) Take a look below, and let us know who your favorite movie villain is in the comments.

Do we really appreciate our scoundrels more than our saints? In movies we most often do. This video weaves together years of memorable and iconic villains into a four-part montage that highlights the truly “worst of the worst”.
