2025 is a banner year for horror, in part because of Weapons, Zach Cregger’s creepy film about a group of children who suddenly disappear in a small Pennsylvania town.
The film’s antagonist, the garish Aunt Gladys (Amy Madigan), is already a horror icon.
But is she scary enough to be on a best horror villains list? Watch With Us has curated a list of the most memorable — and scariest — bad guys in cinema history.
From the chainsaw-wielding Leatherface to Death itself, these vile villains all have one thing in common — they’re terrifying as hell.
