I think we've talked before about his performance in The Prophecy.

Have I ever thanked you for introducing me to this movie? When you said that Viggo outcreeps Walken at his creepy best, I knew I had to watch it!

Even with the great villain performances, my favorite thing about the movie is the whole Miltonian take on angels.

I adore the Prophesy movies. Every single one of them which, of course, proves I have no taste at all. But, there you go.

I'm fascinated by the man vs. angel struggle. Not sure why.

Michael Chiklis can do both the "crazy out of control" scary and the "cold-blooded and very controlled" scary, as needed.

I think Adam Baldwin would be scary if he had a role that pulled that out of him. He's played cuddly, but he can be plenty scary.

Nathan Fillion was pretty scary as Caleb. Lots of menace there, plus a nice helping of crazy. Michael Wincott, Ron Perlman, Jeff Kober, Mark Harmon, Kevin Spacey, Morgan Freeman. All can be both menacing and creepy.

Plus? Jim Carrey. Creeepeee.

ETA: Robin Williams. No, seriously.

cont. Donald Sutherland (okay, North American), Julian McMahon, Jeff Bridges (in The Vanishing, frex), Edward Hermann.

Robin can definitely bring the creepy and menacing. It's that same controlled intensity.

William Hurt, Sam Shepard, Scott Glenn.

And for anyone who saw The Good Shepherd, Matt Damon creeped me RIGHT out.

Since Michael K. Williams and Michael Chiklis have been mentioned, let me also toss in Michael Emerson.

No love for Samuel L. Jackson? I know he's mostly been a likable wisecracker lately, but in some of his early movies he did an angry stare that made me worry he'd be spraying the movie audience with bullets.

But the ending of The Apple is perfect! It is the best ending ever in the history of film!
