Don’t forget the faboulus General Kala played by Mariangela Melato in Flash Gordon. I had a crush on her when I saw that movie. I really liked her golden helmet and her black-gold suit of amours she’s wearing in that movie. At the end Prince Barin played by Timothy Dalton
cracked Kalas suit of armour with a shot out of a laser gun what made her inwards smoking broiling and melting and leaked out as a greasy oil, leaving only the helmet and the empty suit of armour laying on the floor

The daughter in Mildred Pierce…what’s her name…Vita, that’s it…Ann Blythe played her…she’s a real piece of work…spoiled rotten and a first rate bitch. Lady Macbeth should also be in the Top Ten.

Good episode last night. Does the decision one Six make affect the actions of all the other Sixes. Could one Six side with the humans and another Six side with other Cylons and could this lead to civil war within they Cylon ranks. We’ll just have to keep watching this incredible show to find out. Its the reason I keep paying my cable bill each month even when I can’t afford to.

Kinda looked like Number 6 was changing sides last night, Marian.

I think it’s a testimony to BSG’s thoroughgoing Brilliance that even the “scenes from next week” are deliberately misleading.

I finally remembered the third villainess I wanted to name. Six from the new Battlestar Galactica.

The very first one to come to mind was Malificent from Sleeping Beauty and it’s nice to see others have already mentioned her. She didn’t set out to kill people. She was scorned by not being invited to a birthday party so she hatched an elaborate scheme to inflict pain and misery on Sleeping Beauty and her would-be prince. She chains the prince up (that’s a hot scene btw) while Beauty is put to sleep for decades and tells him the story of how she will keep him there til he’s old, gray, and decrepit, and then release him to ride his nag to free the princess. So much more interesting and cruel than just killing people.

I like the complicated ones more than just straight out evil ones. I think that’s why I am so impressed with Kathy Bates in Misery. She’s so sugary sweet on the surface until you find out just how screwed up she is from living this solitary fantasy life.

It’s actually Alice Krige (pronounced /KREE-guh/), not Kreig

I’ve never heard of her, but if you are trying to use the German word for war at the end, it is spelled “Krieg.”

#15: It’s actually Alice Krige (pronounced /KREE-guh/), not Kreig. But then I’m a pretty big geek myself.

I have to go with the actress who inspired the evil queen in Disney’s “Snow White”, Gale Sondergaard. After winning the first Supp. Actress Oscar, she spent the latter years of her career doing little but playing villainesses. My favorite; Dorothy Lamour’s conniving aunt in The Road to Rio (“I hate you. I loathe you. I despise you.”).

Also, there was the woman who played the Cordelia-like part in Kurosawa’s “Ran”. She was evil, I tells ya’!

Dave, sonic, Marian — What about Natasha Henstridge in Species?

I thought she was kinda boring! The better one would be the X-Files mutant alien thingy that changed sex after mating with humans, and emitted strong pheremones that would attract, then kill the victim in the process of getting it on.
