Meine zehn liebsten Filmbösewichte
Ein kurzer Hinweis im Vorfeld: ich möchte mich in dieser Liste auf rein menschliche Filmbösewichte beschränken, das erscheint mir sinnvoller und erleichtert es ein wenig, Vergleiche zwischen den einzelnen Figuren zu ziehen. Leider bedeutet das für meinen absoluten und unangefochtenen Lieblingsfilmbösewicht, dass er bzw. es nicht in dieser Liste auftauchen kann… ich hoffe, der Xenomorph aus den Alienfilmen, diese perfekte, unbarmherzige und hochgradig effiziente Kreatur nahe zu ohne Schwächen, geschaffen einzig nur um zu töten und seine Rasse zu vermehren, wird es mir nachsehen…
