Heath Ledger as the Joker. He received posthumous praise for his role as this classic villain.
Starz will be airing a special called Unforgettably Evil, which looks at the most infamous movie villains and why we can’t get enough of them. A blurb about the show:
Unforgettably Evil features Tobin Bell, Lauren Shuler Donner, Malcolm McDowell, Daryl Hannah, Live Schreiber, the late David Carradine, Eric Roberts, Joe Mantegna, Bruce Greenwood, Stan Lee and Eli Roth as they discuss modern and classic film, with an emphasis on the villains and what it was that made them such memorable characters in film history.
Below is Starz’s description for the special:
“The special investigates the psychology behind classic villains and the often startlingly simple way in which they grind on the audience’s nerves while playing on their fears. From Alien to Terminator, villains do not necessarily have to be human to be bad. Villains are as old as time itself, and allow the screenwriters of the future to keep audiences squirming in their seats with the help of these characters, who know exactly how to push our buttons.”
This is on Tuesday, July 28 at 10:00 PM on Starz.
