* ''Film/DarkCity1998'' [[Script/DarkCity1998 1992 script]], by Creator/AlexProyas ([[https://imsdb.com/scripts/Dark-City.html link]]): The [[HiveMind Mystery Men]]'s leader, "[[BigBad Mr. Black]]", controls humanity by regularly having them "tuned" to rewrite their personalities and memories according to his wishes. When protagonist John White is awakened during his tuning to be remade into a SerialKiller, Black has the Mystery Men horribly murder White's intended victims--[[WouldHurtAChild including a baby]]--to frame him, and drives an investigating inspector [[DrivenToMadness insane]] through sheer agony. Slowly skinning his own reluctant human scientist alive for betraying him, Black revives the corpses of the humans he killed to accuse White of murdering them and when White refuses to break, simply overpowers him in a psychic battle before tuning White with the monstrous personality.

** [[Script/SpiderMan1993 Second draft]], by Creator/JamesCameron et al. ([[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bcSJXxm5lU4qHpdyAHYNq7nlQBhas_ES/view?usp=sharing link]]): [[Characters/MarvelComicsOttoOctavius Doctor Otto Octavius]], aka "Doc Ock", is a narcissistic MadScientist defined by his ego. Already callous to the lives of his students, as shown when his classroom nearly burns down and he dismisses the risks, Ock manages to view an alternate dimension, giving him [[AGodAmI a God complex]] that makes him decide to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy the entire universe]]. In pursuit of this goal, Ock murders his former boss out of spite; has his henchman attack Peter's home and causes Uncle Ben's death; kidnaps Liz Allen and almost kills her to draw Peter out; and repeatedly tries to kill Spider-Man. Once his goal is set in motion, chaos erupts in the city, with a train derailing and cars floating, which causes many injuries. Coming within seconds of wiping out all life, Ock chooses himself when the portal to his "heaven" can only transport one person, believing [[ItsAllAboutMe only himself]] to be worthy of life.

* ''Film/TheLastBoyScout'' (Creator/ShaneBlack's [[Script/TheLastBoyScoutShaneBlack original script]]): [[TheDragon Milo]] is significantly nastier than he is in the final product, even managing to eclipse his boss [[BigBad Sheldon Marcone]]. A director of {{snuff film}}s on top of being a [[PsychoForHire psychotic hitman]] for Marcone, Milo routinely has young women tricked or kidnapped to be brutally murdered by his henchmen for the purpose of his films. Once Marcone orders the assassination of [[CorruptPolitician Senator Calvin Baynard]], Milo kidnaps the hero Joe Hallenbeck and his wife Sarah and threatens to use Sarah as the next star in his snuff films if Joe doesn't kill Baynard, with full intent of simply burning Joe to death and using him to soak up guilt as he and Marcone walk off free. Along the way, Milo massacres an innocent family simply because they inconvenience him and, after murdering Baynard and all of his men before being defeated and scarred by Joe, murders his way back to Joe and tries to furiously gun down him and his entire family in revenge.

* ''Film/{{Sicario}}'' [[Script/{{Sicario}} original script]] ([[https://indiegroundfilms.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/sicario-by-taylor-sheridan.pdf link]]): [[BigBad Fausto Alarcon]] here lacks [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes the genuine care for his family]] that the film version has. One of the top chiefs of [[TheCartel the Sinaloa Cartel]], Alarcon is likened to a virus plaguing all of Mexico; it's noted that any murders carried out by the Cartel are perpetrated "with his hand or with his blessing". Alarcon's murderous reign is so brutal that entire houses are filled to bursting with the bodies of his dozens of victims, and he personally had the wife and [[WouldHurtAChild child daughter]] of Alejandro brutally tortured, raped, and murdered. When Alejandro comes seeking revenge, Alarcon tries to sacrifice his own wife to save his own skin, emotionlessly remarking "[[ItsAllAboutMe I love me more]]."

* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro'' [[Script/TheLegendOfSpyroAltiereBros unproduced script]] ([[https://drive.google.com/file/d/12oZRKTDMzxVum6UJU4ih1XkJF9xiBoy6/view link]]): [[EvilOverlord The Dark Master]] is an evil purple dragon who seeks dominion over the realms. Creating an army of monsters, The Dark Master has them raze the surface, killing all in their path and leaving the lands as a charred wasteland. Seeking more power, the Dark Master uses a red jewel to [[YourSoulIsMine steal the souls]] of the dragons he killed to bolster his own power. Kidnapping Cynder as a hatchling, the Dark Master twisted her into a snarling beast and used her as a weapon of war, keeping her aware of her actions. Hearing of [[Characters/SpyroTheDragonTheCharacter Spyro]]'s existence, the Dark Master has his minions attack the Dragonfly Village to bring him out, later attacking the Dragon Temple and stealing Ignitus's soul. Despite once being able to be the defender of the realms, [[AmbitionIsEvil the Dark Master]] willingly chose to harbor power and wouldn't be content until he's got it all, standing on a world of ashes.
