There's something about bloodthirsty villains that makes us divorce our morality and become their allies. Okay, moving on from the 'stronger the villain, the stronger the hero will appear' narrative, I love antagonists who criminally overhaul the protagonists and make the film their own. Yes Gabbar, eyes on you.
