they’ll keep you holding your breath in
suspense welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down the top 10
thriller movie villains number 10 Carrie
White from Carrie while she was the
protagonist of the film many debate
whether Carrie was a villain a victim or
a hero one thing’s for sure this
tormented soul was a frightening bomb
just waiting to be detonated and that
she did when she murdered everyone at
prom over a prank involving pig’s blood
number 9 the Blair Witch from the Blair
Witch Project what makes this one of the
greatest suspense villains is that there
was actually no witch we never saw her
and there was no killing or death in the
movie as it turned out the Blair Witch
was nothing but a manifestation of fear
and panic number 8 nurse ratchet from
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest maybe
not your traditional horror or suspense
film but Nurse Ratched is one of the
most cold sadistic and
passive-aggressive forces of
intimidation and humiliation to ever
horrify us from the silver screen when
she’s done berating you you’ll gladly
kill yourself regardless of whether or
not you belong in the asylum you know
really what worries me is how your
mother is going to take this number 7
John Doe from seven barely glimpsed
until the final reel of the 1995
thriller 7 Kevin Spacey’s John Doe
menaces with a series of grim
performance crimes when DOE finally
appears he unsettles us with an
unexpected stillness and ability to
rationalize his homicidal actions with
unflinching logic wanting people to
listen
you can’t just tap them on the shoulder
anymore you have to hit them with a
sledgehammer and then you’ll notice
you’ve got their strict attention number
six
any welts from misery she isn’t a
supernatural ghost or a monster hiding
in the bushes
Annie’s much more insidious behind the
cheerful overly nice and harmless facade
lies a dangerous bipolar psychopath with
a touch of paranoid schizophrenia she
just happens to be an overly protective
caregiver with a love of sledgehammers
it’s for the best
almost done number five xenomorphs from
alien prowling the long shiny corridors
of the spaceship Nostromo this
terrifying alien blended into the
darkness to pick off crew members one at
a time not only able to climb walls but
with acid saliva
it could also bro into any part of the
ship to find you number four the shark
from Jaws the beach has never been the
same
jaws is terrifying because the shark
could be anywhere and his absence only
fuelled the suspense and let’s not
forget about the iconic music that kept
us on the edge of our seats in
anticipation
number three Norman Bates from psycho
based on real-life psycho Ed Gein Norman
Bates assured in the modern horror movie
and a new breed of killer he may have
seen like an innocent young man but when
his mommy isn’t happy you better not
take a shower we all go a little mad
sometimes
number two Jack Torrance from The
Shining he claims he doesn’t want to
hurt anyone he just wants to bash his
wife’s head in Jack Nicholson’s
performance as the hobbling axe wielding
an insane caretaker of a remote hotel is
an iconic centerpiece in suspense horror
history here’s Johnny
number one Hannibal Lecter from Silence
of the Lambs there’s nothing scarier
than intelligence especially when
coupled with an appetite for human flesh
with a side of fava beans and candy
limiting himself to only dining on
people he finds rude Hannibal Lecter
remains menacing to anyone even when he
strapped down and wearing his muzzle I
ate his liver with some fava beans and a
nice Chianti
