The 10 best actresses that play villains. Read over 2,000 times

Leading a life of crime that is!

I made a list of the best actors who play bad guys. The same rules apply to this one. She must be scary, believable and of coarse, bad too the bone! This list was harder to do because many male actors specialize in playing the villain, where that is not the case with most actresses on the big screen.

10.Sean Young- She is not that well known and is not one of my favorite actresses, but she handled the bazaar role of Ray Finkle in "Ace Ventura- Pet Detective" quite well. She was also evil in a few other films. She has a vindictive stare and a crude, mispirited manner! That's what earned her a spot on this list!

9. Sharon Stone-Arnold Swartzenagger's wife in Total Recall, was a nasty...well you fill in the blank. Sharon was great when being bad.

8. Tilda Swinton- She is the actress who brought Jadis, the White Witch to life in the Narnia Movies. She has a "cold" persona and knows how to appear exstatic when others perish

7. Sarah Douglas - She was great and believable as Ursa in Superman 2 and the evil witch in Conan the Destroyer. She mastered the Sci Fi genre as an evil vixen who is bent on absolute power. She also was one of the evil reptile leaders in V, the made for T.V. movie.

6. Joan Crawford- She was another actress that had that look and persona that just screamed, run away!

5. Eva Mendez-She was the saving grace in The Spirit, and played a very convincing role in Once Upon a Time in Mexico. There were other roles that she was an evil wench in as well. She can act when not over acting!

4. Monica Potter- She is the equivalent to Ray Parks on this list. Many will say "Monica Who?" . She is not on here for her role as a snob in Patch Adams, but rather her role in Along Came a Spider. She was outstanding and helped Morgan Freeman pull off another modern day classic! Plus she just looks like a creepess ( that is a compliment).

3.Betty Davis-When I was growing up, I did not think that Betty's eyes were seductive the way Kim Karnes obviously did. I thought were eyes were scary and filled with evil! She played a ruthless or crazed woman often, and was outstanding at it. She knew how to handle a revolver too!

2. Margaret Hamilton- How could any list of this type leave out the Wicked Witch of the West? How evil, and scary was she? Very! Watch the Wizard of Oz again and listen to that voice and watch her facial expressions!

1. Glen Close- How can anyone argue this? She played Cruella perfectly in the Dalmatian movies, was great in Hamlet, and scared us all in Fatal Attraction! She is among the best actresses, but I rank her number 1 in this category.
