Christopher Lee (Count Dooku)

Role:

The late, great Christopher Lee was an epitomizing example of a British actor who always played villains. He usually worked in horror films but also dabbled in blockbuster roles, such as his excellent role as Count Dooku and central villain Francisco Scaramanga in this Roger Moore Bond flick.

The Man with the Golden Gun is a very mediocre entry indeed and there's a good reason this is one of the least popular Bond films. The action is bland and there's a noticeable lack of energy and scale, with a shockingly low body count of only 6. It's also one of the most sexist Bond films of them all (that's seriously saying something) so it makes for uncomfortable viewing today.

The saving grace is Christopher Lee, who's awesome as the main villain. Charismatic and intimidating in equal measure, he's a joy to watch and easily overshadows Roger Moore's Bond.
