* ''ComicBook/NickFury: Agent of ComicBook/{{SHIELD}}'' (1998): [[MadScientist Arnim Zola]] once developed a horrible bioweapon called the [[SyntheticPlague Death's Head virus]], almost employing its use in UsefulNotes/WorldWarII to kill all of [[UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler Hitler]]'s enemies and win the war for the Nazis before ComicBook/{{HYDRA}} collapsed. An aging but remorseless old man thirty years later, Zola gleefully takes the opportunity to remake the virus for the schemes of HYDRA's current head Viper, allowing her to use it to gas HYDRA's command and attempt to gas all of Manhattan to cause millions of deaths in the process. When Zola's mind is read, the only thing that is seen is a passionate, frightening devotion to warfare, destruction, and the death of millions--a dream Zola eagerly hopes to realize through the Death's Head virus.

* ''Film/FantasticFourDuology'': [[Characters/MarvelComicsDoctorDoom Dr. Victor Von Doom]], [[AdaptationalVillainy devoid of his normal redeeming qualities]], is the CEO of Von Doom Industries and is obsessed with gaining power at any cost. After an accident in space exposed him and the Fantastic Four to a cosmic storm, Doom blames the resulting bad press on Reed Richards. After he gains powers himself, Doom believes [[AGodAmI he's become a god]] and tricks Ben Grimm into helping him to gain more power for himself, before trying to murder the entire Fantastic Four. Later Doom returns and allies with the Four in order to catch the Silver Surfer, only for Doom to betray them and steal the Surfer's board to gain unlimited power, [[MurderByInaction refusing to give it up]] even after he's told that the Silver Surfer needs the board to stop [[Characters/MarvelComicsGalactus Galactus]] from devouring the world.

* ''Film/TheFantasticFour'': [[Characters/MarvelComicsDoctorDoom Doctor Doom]] was [[EvilFormerFriend once a friend]] of Reed Richards who was nearly killed and crippled by an experiment gone wrong. In vengeance, Doom spent the next ten years plotting the death of Reed and anyone associated with him. When the titular team gains their powers, Doom captures them and plots to drain them. In order to steal a diamond to power a [[EnergyWeapon laser beam]], Doom massacres the Jeweler's gang and [[HostageSituation takes Alicia Masters as a hostage]]. Giving the Four an ultimatum of either surrendering to him or have New York City be destroyed by the laser, Doom starts a painful process to drain their powers, and plans to execute Alicia just to torment Ben Grimm. When they escape, Doom fires the laser at New York and confronts Reed once last time. Defeated, Doom [[SpitefulSuicide lets himself fall just to deny Reed the satisfaction of saving him]].

* ''Film/FantasticFour2015'': [[Characters/MarvelComicsDoctorDoom Victor Von Doom]] is a gifted young genius who worked for the government to develop a device that would be capable of transporting people across dimensions. After joining with Reed Richards, Johnny Storm, and Sue Storm, he was able to finish the device, and together with them he traveled in an alien dimension where, after an accident, he gained superhuman powers. Desiring to [[InTheirOwnImage create his own world]] in that dimension, Victor was not happy when government agents retrieve him, and thus slaughtered many of the scientists and soldiers in the base, including [[YouKilledMyFather Johnny's father]], before planning to use the teleporter to create a black hole on Earth and destroy the entire planet, solely out of [[AGodAmI God complex]] and [[MisanthropeSupreme hatred for humanity]].

* ''Film/VenomLetThereBeCarnage'': The [[Characters/MarvelComicsCarnage Carnage]] symbiote, after being born from a distillation of Eddie Brock/Venom's blood within the body of the psychotic murderer [[Characters/CarnageCletusKasady Cletus Kasady]], comes to bloody life by massacring a prison's worth of guards in order to break out. As sadistic as Cletus but with none of [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes his redeeming features]], the Carnage symbiote murders and eats dozens of innocents on the streets of San Francisco, such as those who plead they have innocent families and a priest it munches for a cheap power-up, and it gleefully intends to slaughter the rest of San Francisco. In the climax, the symbiote tries to [[AntagonisticOffspring murder its "father" Venom]] alongside Eddie's ex-girlfriend Anne, and callously attempts to kill Cletus's beloved partner-in-crime Frances "Shriek" Barrison out of sheer annoyance with her powers and the effect they have on it.

* ''Film/SpiderMan3'': [[Characters/VenomEddieBrock Edward "Eddie" Brock Jr.]] is introduced as a [[ImmoralJournalist slimy rival]] to [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogySpiderMan Peter Parker]] for the Daily Bugle job, but [[FromNobodyToNightmare evolves into something truly wicked]] as the film goes on. Established as a selfish, creepy jerk who is obsessed with Gwen Stacy after just one coffee date, Brock is nonetheless eager to photograph her near-death experience to make a profit. After a failed attempt at framing Spider-Man as a criminal and praying for God to kill Peter for exposing this, Brock stumbles across [[Characters/MarvelComicsVenom the symbiote]] and merges with it to become Venom. Immediately trying to devour an entire street of civilians and cops in the tie-in comic ''The Black'', Venom stalks and nearly attacks Gwen in an attempt to make her "love" him, then kidnaps Mary Jane Watson to molest, torment, and use her as a hostage to lure Spider-Man out, planning to decide via coin flip whether he kills her while [[ForcedToWatch forcing Spider-Man to watch]], or does the inverse. Venom leads Sandman in slaughtering multiple teams of cops who try to rescue Mary Jane, and when Spider-Man finally shows up, Venom brutally beats him, tries to murder Mary Jane, and kills his best friend Harry as he watches. In a [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy trilogy]] populated with tragic, misguided [[Characters/SpiderManTrilogySupervillains antagonists]], Venom is a petty psychopath [[ItsAllAboutMe concerned only with himself]].
