Not really a victim except for being slain by a sword in a duel. One of the biggest colossal pricks in movie history...

Prince Edward in Braveheart

Regina George in Mean Girls

Calvin Candie in Django Unchained

The Roman soldiers who tortured Jesus in The Passion of the Christ.

The mother and grandmother in Flowers in the Attic.

Colonel Tavington in The Patriot.

Amon Göth in Schindler's List takes the cake for me.

you guys are listing antagonists. they are supposed to be unlikeable. the interesting thing would be if the antagonist was likeable.

As god as my witness, I didn't know this. Never gave it a 2nd thought. How weird is that? I knew Brittany Murphy did Luanne's voice but was blind as to the rest of the cast.

I just rewatched Maximum Overdrive the other day and for the first time realized that Gus from Breaking Bad was the guy in the video game room.

I’m not sure about cinematic history, but I just watched the movie “Empire of the Sun” the other day.

For the first hour-plus of the movie, I was really rooting for the kid to get whacked. At no point did I really find the character “likable”.

Burke was a villain, not a victim, IMO.

I would nominate Gorman from Aliens over Burke, but not sure he really fits the bill.

This.

Half the posts in this thread are listing villains who died.

That doesn’t make them victims.

Most of the nominations in this thread are villains and antagonists.

Exactly.

Just because a villain dies doesn’t make them a victim.

Rose from Titanic was a victim and a POS. She fits the bill.

Sally Hardesty's "invalid" brother Franklin from 'The Texas Chain Saw Massacre'(1974)

When he got run through with that chainsaw I pumped my fist so hard I pulled a pec.
