10 Essential Spider-Man Villains Not Yet Used In The Movies

5. Carnage

To many, serial killer Cletus Cassidy and his symbiote identity Carnage are the epitome of 90s excess.

A gleefully violent, monstrously evil antidote to Venom's antihero routine, he'd certainly struggle amongst the quips and lightness of the MCU. And yet, for all of his haters, Carnage remains one of Spider-Man's most popular and iconic villains.

Rumour has it that Carnage will be appearing in Tom Hardy's solo Venom movie, making him a bit of a cheat on this list, but like so many others (including Venom himself!) the sadistic supervillain is so much less without Spider-Man to give him a good web to the face by the end of it all.
