20 Most Iconic Villain Introductions In Movie History

14. Frank Booth - Blue Velvet

Few directors know how to really get under the audience's skin quite as effectively as David Lynch - ever since his surreal debut Eraserhead, Lynch has proven himself to be a master of delivering movies which sink below the conscious world and into the realm of nightmares. His 1980s masterpiece Blue Velvet is no exception: taking the audience into the dark underbelly of picket fence middle America, Lynch uncovers a world of psychotic criminals with bizarre perversities. Nowhere is this more evident than in the character Frank Booth, who we first meet practicing his strange sexual proclivities with Dorothy Vallens (Isabella Rosselini). Dennis Hopper's career-defining performance as Booth is a truly monstrous creation rarely surpassed in cinema. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=reNY3qAtiDw
