    Shinjuku Incident. It's a film noir where the villain is the main character though.

    He played an assassin opposite Antonio Bandereas, albeit he was the "nice" assassin....

    Arguably, he was the bad guy in Rambo.

    Stallone has played gangsters and mobsters before.

    Dean. Wasn't his character in Giant the villain of the piece? Long time since I've seen it, but I remember him been a nasty alcoholic.

    She played a sympathetic racist in Crash
    Didn't he play a vampire? Not sure if it was a villinous role though

    Yeah, he was a villain in that. I remember that movie being quite gory.

    He played Genghis Khan, who might be considered villainous by those he had massacred in his empire building.

    Played a wrong 'un in 'The Green Berets', although he was supposed to be the hero.

    And Sly Stallone played a mugger in Woody Allen's 'Bananas'.

    Giant.

    Mind you, he had somehow managed to make the audience sympathise with him instead of the Rock Hudson/Elizabeth Taylor family. :D

    The Heiress
    A Place in the Sun

    Give you 'The Heiress'...probably. (More 'chancer' than villain IMO) Wouldn't really call him a 'villain' in 'A Place In the Sun'. It's all quite ambiguous and one tends to root for him, somehow. Well, I do. (Pulling a similar trick to Mr Dean in Giant, I guess. C'mon, Shelley Winters is *really* annoying in APITS! Brilliant performance by her.) Anti-hero, maybe?

    Sorry...semantics. ;)
