10 Most Powerful Sci-Fi Movie Villains

4. Mr. Shadow - The Fifth Element

The Terminator
Gaumont

Not the most memorable villain from this colourful excursion into the mind of director Luc Besson, but by far the most powerful, The Fifth Element's Mr. Shadow - also referred to as Evil - is the destructive star-like entity whose singular purpose is to wipe out all life from existence.

Invulnerable and sentient, Mr. Shadow looms large (rather literally) over proceedings in The Fifth Element as all parties seek to acquire the four known elements represented as stone blocks - and, of course, the fifth element, represented by Mila Jovovich - which, when combined, may destroy Mr. Shadow.

Despite being a planetary threat, Mr. Shadow loses some points for being unable to do his own dirty work. He has to entrust Zorg to retrieve the stones while he gathers energy and waits for the right time to bring down destruction on all living things.

Even though he has incomparable means of annihilation, the convoluted weapon assembling of the aforementioned elements can be used to dispatch Mr. Shadow with ease - although, that is the only known way of defeating this threatening ball of fire.
