6. Professor Dent (Anthony Dawson - Dr. No)

Though a geologist is hardly the most threatening opposition to the world's greatest secret agent, Dent holds the distinction of being the first henchman to meet his maker at the hands of 007, in an exceptionally cold-blooded manner initially deemed inappropriate by censors. After having survived an encounter with a tarantula placed in his bed by the professor, Bond lures the culprit into a trap, tricking him into unloading his entire clip of ammunition into a set of pillows, before unloading his own clip of ammunition into the now helpless man's body, showcasing a true portrayal of the nature of Ian Flemings literary creation.
