So, as you know, I love thinking about villains and what makes them cool or interesting or scary. And, as you know, I love those villains with a vulnerable side. The villains that you can feel sympathy for. The villains where you see the glimmer of good.
But there are those villains for which none of the above apply. And it's those villains we might call monsters. Yes? Agreed?
I've decided that one of the worst villains that I've ever come across is the governor from The Walking Dead. I've just finished up season three and wow... he is one scary dude. And even though we do see a bit of humanness with him regarding his daughter (sort of, if you can call it that), there is not enough to have any sort of sympathy for him at all.
Yes, I think this guy is one of the scariest, creepiest worst monsters I've watched OR read.
Agree or disagree? What other villains would you consider through and true monsters?

Wait until Season 4. That's all I have to say.
ReplyDeleteJenni: I know... I mean I know some stuff because of many spoilers here and there. But STILL! Oh my gosh! And, gah, I hope it doesn't take long for season four to show up on Netflix!
DeleteYes!! But what really makes this guy scary is that on the surface he seems like a good guy, working for the good of the whole. He has two sides and people believe in the faux good side!
