The "villainy" of comedy Bad Neighbours may ultimately be relatively low-stakes compared to most movies on this list, but it still counts. Couple Mac (Seth Rogen) and Kelly (Rose Byrne) are adjusting to life with their infant daughter when a hard-partying fraternity, Delta Psi Beta, moves in next door.

The frat's hell-raising antics are spearheaded by its president, Teddy Sanders (Zac Efron), who isn't much interested in toning down the mayhem for Mac and Kelly's benefit, resulting in a war of escalation between the two sides.

By film's end the matter is resolved somewhat amicably, but when Bad Neighbours 2 introduces the considerably more vicious sorority Kappa Nu as Ma and Kelly's new neighbours, Teddy is pulled back into the fold to help take the sorority down.

Though Teddy initially sides with Kappa Nu and their leader Shelby (Chloƫ Grace Moretz), he eventually appreciates they're far more chaotic than his frat ever was, and so becomes a force of good to help his former enemies out.
