4. Hans Landa
Inglorious Basterds – too numerous to count
Given that he’s got the “Jew Hunter” as his nickname and his job is to find hiding Jewish families, you can assume he’s really good as his job. Plus as a high-ranking member of the Nazi party, he’s not someone to be trifled with. He’s a villain, murderer and generally not a very good guy.
He’s got a deadly combination of charm, brilliance, cruelty and is incredibly relentless in his pursuits. He’s also very self-interested. When it comes down to committing to his cause, or changing sides to avoid death, he negotiates a deal with the Allies to save his ass.
At least until Lt. Raine carves a swastika into his forehead. Can’t talk your way out of that one.
