Definately Captain Rhodes. I totally agree that he deserved an Oscar for that role, and I don't think there are many other characters in film history that were as evil as him.

So far it's unanimous, Rhodes wins this easily.

I was rooting for the biker gang in DOTD78, they were not villians, just liked to have a good time.

I don't think Steve should really be considered a villian, he was more of just an asshole.

DOTD 2004 didn't really have any villains besides the zombies.

Capt. Rhodes is the ultimate villian. Rhodes made me hate him from the moment I saw him.

I had to go with Captain Rhodes:
Not only because he is a badass, but because he killed a living person in the movie he was in.
He attempted to force Flyboy to drive the chopper for them, and leave the others behind.....what a dick. :evil:

But he is awesome. :)

The Harry Cooper from NOTLD68 or Harry Cooper from NOTLD90? The Harry Cooper from NOTLD68 was just scared, he did help Ben nail the door back up, I dont think he deserved Ben beating him down, now Harry Cooper from NOTLD90 was a total asshat.

yes the later version. But even the 68 version, I think Cooper did deserve the beat down.

i don't think you can call him the best villain, but i think you could call him one of the worst. Miguel Salazar in Day85. i just had a conversation in a different thread giving my reasons to Creeping Death about why he is one of the biggest scumbags in any zombie movie and i thought i should let my thoughts be known here. i'll just copy and paste that if that is ok to do. here goes:

he was a good character and was a good role in contrast to other characters in the movie. i just found him to be a snivelling, unlikable, little wuss in general. his constant cowering kinda bugged me. not that cowering characters are really all bad. NotLD90's Judy Rose's panicing and screaming was understandable, for example, but her cowering didn't lead her to work against those around her. Salazar's did. at the start when he and Sarah are in the street and the way he turns and runs at the first sign of zombies. no problem with his survival instinct, that was obviously strong at that point. i think it was more the way he doesn't try to ensure that his comrade, and girlfriend, is following and safe. no attempt to cover his partner. and the way he thought Sarah was full of shit when she woke from the nightmare. mocking her for being afraid, even tho she controls her fear and still does what needs to be done and looks out for others, particularly him, instead of curling up and crying, like he does. he was the one who was full of shit. by the end of the movie i really didn't like him, and then for him to let the zombies in because he'd been bitten, endangering the three people who put themselves on the line to protect him against Rhodes and co, also risking themselves by holding out from killing him to see if the amputation worked against the bite. but don't get me wrong, i like the actor, he did a great job but i'd have to say that he is ultimately one of the biggest scumbags in any zombie movie.

Wait, Salazar wasn't a villain...
He was a victim in that movie. :think:

i suppose he is kind of an ambiguous character really. i don't think Romero intended him to be a villain in the way he intended Rhodes to be a villain but his actions kinda moved him from victim to villain in my books. he was a victim right up until he decided to set a horde of zombies onto Sarah, John and Billy. if he did something that was aimed solely at Rhodes and co then i may have applauded that, after all they did torment him mercilessly. but he endangered his 3 allies, again, who faced well armed and trained soldiers to defend him. and remember, he didn't just open the gate and let the horde devour him out of some desperate, suicidal act, he purposefully led them to the cargo lift and waited until they'd surrounded him, taking the pain of being mauled before pushing the button and letting them into the facility. his intention was to kill them all. Rhodes was a bastard and he may have abandoned his men but he didn't do anything to purposefully get them killed. he just thoughtlessly left them to save himself. Also i think rhodes did kinda believe in what he was doing, he didn't believe in the research, and felt him and his men were being put in needless danger because of it, and he was also quite justified in hosing down Logan after discovering what he'd been up to. (here's another thought, can Logan be seen as a villain as well?) Salazar decided to wipe them all out, friend and foe alike. in the end, imo, he turned out to be the worst villain in that movie. Rhodes, Cooper (NotlD), Kaufman (Land) and the bikies(Dawn78) were mostly doing, imo, what they felt they needed to survive, however selfish or evil there actions may have been, but Salazar's actions had no purpose other than complete destruction of himself and everyone else. He really was a grade-A douchebag when ya look at it.

Salazar just cracked, that doesn't really have a good/evil connection. Guy just couldn't take it anymore.

and had he just opened the gate and let the zombies have him or maybe just stick a gun to his head i'd agree. but what he did was done with purpose and some forethought. he made a conscious decision to commit suicide and take everyone with him. he was rational enough to lay down on the lift and hold on to the lift button and wait. he was rational enough to feign delirium until john left him before sneaking off to do what he did. these actions are the type of thing that would work against a person in a court of law because it shows he still had some hold on his mental faculties. he was on the verge for most of the movie, then when he was bitten he cracked and ran screaming. but after some time he'd calmed down and came to the conclusion that it was all over. my interpretation is that he probably decided that it was God's will because of the way he clutched his crucifixes, or whatever they were, throughout the movie. He was obviously very religious. but so was John. but John's reaction to believing its God's will was to think that they need to restart civilisation with a different attitude, Salazar's was to destroy everything he could whether people agreed with him or not. its almost like the difference between say Michael Moore (for example, don't want to get into a debate about him) and a suicide bomber. two types who believe that the western world needs to change but go about expressing their ideas in a very different way. one with reason and ideas, one with mindless, useless destruction (again, don't want to get political, just using it as an example)

all the survivors are the bad guys. its the zombies who are the heroes. the name of this site is All Things Zombie, not All Things ZPAW Survivors. and they're "zombie" movies, not "zombie survivor" movies. Peter, Barbara, Kenneth, Sarah, John, Riley, Cholo, murderers, the lot of them. they should be ashaaaaamed!!!!!!
