What is your favorite performance of any actor playing the Devil? Take into account not only the acting involved, but also what the Devil did. Your favorite might not be "the best" performance.

Mine would probably be Deniro in Angel Heart. I liked his take on who the devil is, plus how he went about his business.

This was my first thought, and a really underrated film. I'll go Peter Stomare for his brief but memorable devil in Constantine.

I know he overacts, but I LOVE Pacino in Devil's Advocate. Thought he played it perfectly.

This.

That movie is sort of a long slog to get to the end when Pacino just blows you away.

Peter Stormare in Constantine. He just looked cool with that white suit and tattoos also acted the way the devil should.

Pacino in The Devils Advocate. Most accurate depiction of Satan IMO.

I was coming here to post this. Ray Wise was amazing as the devil. I saw the fear.net "reunion" and he said that he always imagined the Devil as a shady used car salesman and that was what he was going for.
