1. Bill the Butcher (Gangs of New York) vs. Ike Turner (What's Love Got to Do With It?)
SPOILERS! (Click to view)Bill the Butcher
the man, the myth, the mustache.
Ike Turner
ya know, its sad because ike was a hell of a musician, but instead of being remembered for that, hes going to be remembered as the most famous wife beater in history. more bad news for ike: bill the butcher isnt tina turner.
2. Rev. Harry Powell (Night of the Hunter) vs. Sheriff John Quincy Wydell (The Devil's Rejects)
SPOILERS! (Click to view)Rev. Harry Powell
if you havent seen this movie, you really need to. hes a scheming sneaky bastard who isnt above killing women and children.
Sheriff John Quincy Wydell
okay...how fucked up do you have to be to make the Firefly clan look like the good guys by comparison? this fucked up.
3. William Munny (The Unforgiven) vs. Annie Wilkes (Misery)
SPOILERS! (Click to view)William Munny
yeah, i know, hes the good guy in the movie...but dont forget this is a man who killed women and children. hes kind of a pussy for the first 2/3 of the movie, then he goes fucking postal and unleashes his true face on his enemies.
Annie Wilkes
her scariness factor is increased by her ability to go from cheerful to wacko in seconds. plus, despite the fact she was beating up a cripple most of the time, shes not a little woman, shes probably got some deceptive power.
4. GoGo Yubari (Kill Bill) vs. Bricktop (Snatch.)
SPOILERS! (Click to view)GoGo Yubari
i dunno about you, but she can kick my ass any day.
Bricktop
"do you know what 'nemesis' means? a righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. personified in this case by an 'orrible cunt... me."
5. Patrick Bateman (American Psycho) vs. Frank Booth (Blue Velvet)
SPOILERS! (Click to view)Patrick Bateman
"TRY GETTING A RESERVATION AT DORSIA NOW YOU FUCKING STUPID BASTARD!"
Frank Booth
dudes a fuckin freak. he loves fucking, fighting, and pabst blue ribbon.
6. Tyler Durden (Fight Club) vs. Luke (Children of Men)
SPOILERS! (Click to view)Tyler Durden
the ultra-male. touch as nails and can absorb obscene amounts of punishment.
Luke
yeah i know, huge picture. gimme a break, not a lot of pictures of him. getting to the point, hes a prick because he doesnt realize how wrong wrong wrong he is in this movie and almost ruins everything.
7. Neil McCauley (Heat) vs. Elle Driver (Kill Bill)
SPOILERS! (Click to view)Neil McCauley
stoic and clever, hes a sleeper pick. his calm exterior masks his true toughness. make no mistake, hes fucking nails.
Elle Driver
likes to run her mouth, but she can back it up. will use anything at her disposal to gain the advantage.
8. Derek Vinyard (American History X) vs. Little Bill Daggett (Unforgiven)
SPOILERS! (Click to view)Derek Vinyard
yeah, i know he redeems himself in the end, but you dont remember that part of the movie...you know what part you remember. fucking brutal.
Little Bill Daggett
hes a tough customer, though is way too overconfident. he is going to need to fight dirty to pull this one off.
after this, we move on to the second round! now vote!
FOR BREAKFEST
