Bobo Justus in The Grifters.

One of Pat Hingle's absolute best performances. One. Scary. Ruthless. Badguy.

I find a lot of the bad guys mentioned so far a bit cartoonish - I think the really scary bad guys (with a couple notable exceptions) aren't the ones that drool and shout but the ones that are cold, controlled and reptilian - merely ruthless isn't very interesting; Ian McShane as mobster Teddy Bass is WAY scarier to me than Ben Kingsley in Sexy Beast.

Here's some others:

Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem)- No Country For Old Men
Mortwell (Michael Caine) - Mona Lisa
Harry (Ralph Fiennes) - In Bruges
Janine Cody (Jackie Weaver) and Andrew "Pope" Cody (Ben Mendelsohn) - Animal Kingdom


For sheer over the top, drooling badness you can't top Dennis Hopper as Frank Booth in Blue Velvet or Woody Harrelson as Mickey in Natural Born Killers.
