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.
Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

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

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
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.

“Not dead yet!”
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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Since Michael K. Williams and Michael Chiklis have been mentioned, let me also toss in Michael Emerson.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
But how many people actually made it all the way to the end? I know Sean and I didn't.
