Until Mr. Martin changes his mind and reveals them to be misunderstood saints. Or kill them off. Probably both.
Nah, Gregor will become Un-Gregor the Wight... and get smarter in the process. ;)

I've got one that nobody's mentioned yet...

...South Park's Eric Cartman. :) This is the kid who once won a million dollars and spent it buying an amusement park for the express purpose of not letting any of his friends in (or anyone else for that matter). He even had TV commercials made to rub it in their faces.

This is the kid who not only killed the parents of an older kid who was bothering him, but had their flesh cooked into a stew and then fed to the older kid. And then he explained exactly what he had done once the older kid had finished eating the stew.

This is the kid who had his friend Butters hidden away in a bomb shelter, convinced that World War III had happened and that everyone he loved was dead, just so he could go in Butters' place to a birthday party at a fancy Mexican restaurant.

I'm sure there are plenty of other evil things Cartman has done over the years; these are just a few that sprung immediately to mind.

The wamphri lord Shaitan from the necroscope book series. As a matter of fact the whole wamphri race made me shiver. The describtion of them using a living human who's been morphed into a large sort of biological pump to bring water up from the bowels of their castles is just one example. I recall the poor soul had his heart enlarged to act as the pump and his veins reached out into the walls and acted as plumbing. Or their large winged mounts made by molding the flesh of several humans together. I can recall some other vile describtions from the books but it would require a R rating on this post. Lets just say it had to do with their sexual habits.
 

Baron Harkonnen from Dune.

King Edward the first in Braveheart: "signal the archers" "But we'll hit our own men!" "Yes but we'll hit theirs as well."

Fellow from the second book of Thieves World, can't remember his name offhand but his passion was strapping slaves to a table and then dissecting them to find out how they work. Had the annoying habit of pointing out that his activities were legal as slaves were property and had no rights.

Count Rogen from the Princess Bride.

Adebisi from Oz, sadistic and manipulative. Them again maybe that goes for the majority of the inmates. O'Reilly's manipulation of his simple brother for his own gain is quite nasty. And Vern Schillinger is downright chilling.

Good one. This is seriously one of the most evil acts I've ever seen on a TV show. I think the worst part was that Parker and Stone made it so funny at the same time.

Genius. Sick, twisted genius.


Evil, however, has another name among the many it holds:

Randall Flagg

Several of Steven King's books feature him, but none so well as The Stand. The longer version of the book is the best, but either will do for a really good portreyal. Also: Eyes of the Dragon and The Dark Tower. There may be more.
 

Easily the most evil character to appear on stage, film, or the printed page:

Shooter McGavin, from Happy Gilmore. He may not be physically threatening, but he's got even less moral fiber than Emperor Palpatine.
 




As I've been going through my new DVD boxed set of "I, Claudius," I'd like to nominate Livia, who poisoned just about everyone who stood in the way of her son Tiberius attaining the title of Emperor. And I'll definitely add Caligula to the list as well: he thought he was Zeus reborn, had sex with his own sister, got her pregnant, and then, fearing that the "child of Zeus" growing in her belly might one day become more powerful than him, cut it out of her and apparently tried to eat it.
