1. Ralph Fiennes
Heathcliff- Wuthering Heights

Haunted by his obsessive destructive love for Cathrine. Heathcliff is determined to exctract revenger for her marrying another man.

Endearing Feature
His lifelong suffering dedication and passion for his true love.

His hatred for humanity seems channelled through those passionate eyes and his intensity and deisre makes me weak at the knees.
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (1613 ratings) 8.2  
2. Christian Bale
Patrick Bateman- American Psycho

Vain psychotic prostitute murderer, but there is definately something to be said about that smug attitude and those abs.

Endearing Feature
The authority of his voice. I can't help but belive his every word.
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (1381 ratings) 8.6  
3. Heath Ledger
The Joker- The Dark Knight

Unhinged and unpredicatable. Nothing would be dull around this half man half monster. Fun and laughter at each turn.

Endearing Feature
Everyone likes a little unpredictable chaos and fun
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (130 ratings) 7.2  
4. Stuart Townsend
Dorian Gray- The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

All the allure of the eternally youthful Adonis. Hundred of years of souless self satisfying have left this gentleman a proud heartless rogue, yet his eyes still hold the possibility that his soul isn't all lost.

Endearing Feature
The possibilty of redemption, if not then playing with immortality.
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (692 ratings) 7.6  
5. Clive Owen
Larry- Closer

Slimey, pervy and leering, but that arrogant nature mixed in with his cocky London character gives him a cheeky appealing edge.

Endearing Feature
On the surface a seemingly normal well standing man, with enough money to really enjoy yourself. Just don't dig any deeper.
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (319 ratings) 6.7  
6. Ryan Phillippe
Sebastian Valmont- Cruel Intentions

Taking them unaware and seducing whoever s took his fancy Sebastian was a man without morals or conscience. Of course it all was a facade and a warm heart lay waiting to be discovered.

Endearing Feature
Smooth talking, carefree and flattering. With eyes that seem as genuine as his words.
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (1234 ratings) 8  
7. Alan Rickman
Sheriff of Nottingham- Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves

Torturing the lowly and stealing from his subjects the only thorn in his side is that pesky Robin. His low rasping voice and those intensely roaving eyes make him impossible to resist, unless your name is Marian.

Endearing Feature
That stare and that rasp.
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (704 ratings) 7.5  
8. Joaquin Phoenix
Commodus- Gladiator

Desperately wanting to be loved by his Empire but lacking in moral character and strength. Knowing these weaknesses he plans to kill those in his way.

Endearing Feature
His cold, blue, proud eyes, stiff upper lip and square jaw keep me rooting for his corner.
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (969 ratings) 7.6  
9. James Franco
Harry Osborn -Spiderman 2/3

Poor jilted, loveless, fatherless young man with nothing but money to his name. His best friends have copped off together and the cities superhero has killed his dad! Those deep brown eyes portray a world of pain that he just doesn't deserve.

Endearing Feature
Puppy dog mop and deep warm eyes, set against his strong bitter determination.
Dionysian Child's rating:

Average listal rating (131 ratings) 7  
10. Rufus Sewell
Count Adhemar of Anjou0 A Knight's Tale

Treating a woman as a posession doesn't normally get men too far with the ladies, Despite this and his lancing treachery he's still a tempting offer to the boyish charms of William Thatcher.

Endearing Feature
His cock sure arrogance, swagger and those extra years of experience
Dionysian Child's rating:



Those gentlemen that are deviants and steeped in treachery, yet somehow manage to pose a tempting alternative to the shining golden hero.

Alan Rickman is the best in negative parts... Snape and the bad Sheriff of Nottingham are absolutely great. Better than the good characters;))
