Lemme break it down by genre: Anime: Johan from Monster, as mentioned before he was created under the Nazi regime to be even more sadistic than Hitler, so yeah pretty freakin' evil (Honorable mention to Fleet Admiral Akainu from One Piece) TV: Killer BOB from Twin Peaks. By a landslide. I have yet to see a more perfect depiction of pure evil on any TV show. (Honorable mention to Russell Hantz from Survivor - that's fiction-y enough considering I think evil Hantz is 90% act, 10% real) Novel: Raven from Snow Crash-- the guy is a huge Aleut with a spear for an arm, and has a nuke wired to go off if his heart ever stops beating. Not the mention his {Spoiler}(concentual) statutory rape of the main 15-year-old heroine of the novel. You'd hafta expect nothing less than sheer evil when the main hero is named 'Hiro Protagonist', though! (Honorable mention: Hitler from The Diary of Anne Frank-- well it doesn't count since this is non-fiction I guess) Film: Since I can only pick one winner I'll go with Bobby Peru (Willem Dafoe) from Wild at Heart. Great, great acting. (Honorable mention goes to The Bum from Mulholland Drive, the single most evil and haunting creation ever created for film, it's just too bad he doesn't have any lines/characterization but that might make him that much more evil) Video Games: Kefka from FF6. "HATE! HATE! HATE!" - 'Nuff said. (HM goes to Porky from the Earthbound/Mother series. I haven't even finished the third game yet and I already think he's a bastard for what he's done to the protagonists throughout the series)

All of the adults from Salo: 120 Days of Sodom. I mean, Jesus H Christ. Definitely. Their behavior is even more disturbing when you take into account that they did it purely for their own pleasure. My first thought when I saw this thread was Lord Voldemort. I think Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones is pure, conniving evil. I've just started reading the A Song of Ice and Fire series; I'm wondering she gets worse as the books progress.

Cersei does get worse, but she also is humanized a bit. As in you can kinda sorta rationalize her actions and sympathize with her a bit. Her son though. He took the worst traits of Lannister and Baratheon and only the superficial traits of good looks and good presence. I swear Joffrey is the most i have ever hated a child. I wanted to see that kid prison raped and then slowly disemboweled.

Joffrey is such a heel, a chickens*** heel at that. yeah me too. {Spoiler}I still think the way he died wasn't anywhere near satisfying enough. would it have killed GRRM to say he shit his pants when he died or something? anything to make it less dignified.
