The Next Reel | Best Movie Villains Ever Ranked Apr 02, 2026

Show notes

This week, we’re breaking down everything we watched recently and then debating the top 5 greatest movie villains of all time.

First, we review a wide range of films, from timeless classics to recent releases. Tyler Johns gives his thoughts on Ben-Hur (1959), The Mummy (1999), They Will Kill You, and The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist, while Lance Taylor weighs in on Hoosiers, M (1931), Send Help, and Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates. Some of these movies are easy recommendations, some are fun but flawed, and a couple get absolutely buried.

Then we reveal our personal top 5 movie villains ever. Names like Darth Vader, The Joker, Anton Chigurh, John Doe, Calvin Candie, Nurse Ratched, Alex Forrest, and Godzilla all make the conversation. Who is the most iconic villain in movie history? Who is the most terrifying? And who deserves the number one spot?

We also talk about a couple of upcoming releases worth watching, including The Drama from A24 starring Robert Pattinson and Zendaya, and the upcoming Super Mario Galaxy movie.

If you love movie reviews, classic cinema, thriller talk, and ranking the greatest villains in film history, this episode is for you.

Comment below with your top 5 movie villains of all time and let us know which movie we reviewed that you’d most want to watch next.
