Most evil, diabolical character in a movie or TV

[Nymzee]

Hahaha. As intimidating as Camp Freddy from the Italian Job.

Why Hopkins super camp interpretation of Lecter got such gushing praise is one of life's greatest mysteries.

Brian Cox was far more sinister in Manhunter.

No one beats Mads Mikkelsen

Apparently Holocaust survivors who watched screenings of the movie said they’d toned his character down a fair bit compared to how awful he really was

He's off S1 E1 of Sherlock series. Evil cabbie.

He was in Quadrophenia as well.

Funnily enough, we’ve just started watching Riviera with Julia Stiles on Now TV and he plays an Interpol agent. Could be that you’re thinking of?

The “baddies” are usually way more complex and interesting characters.

Hans Landa was one of the most interesting characters put on screen, he steals the movie (Inglourious Basterds) from the very first screen on that French farm. Christopher Waltz was brilliant in that role

Found it: Whitechapel. Blast from the past there.
