* Judge Claude Frollo from ''WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame''. He doesn't start out as this, but he ends up focusing so much on Esmeralda that he no longer cares about how the people of Paris perceive him or fears the church and God.

* Hans Gruber from ''Film/DieHard''. Looks like nothing can stop him from trying to achieve his goal. If he has to kill someone or sacrifice his own men if that would mean putting his hands on the millions then so be it.

* Jenner from ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretofNIMH''. He takes completely insane extremes to make sure the rats hold their post in the thorn bush, refusing to budge even from claims against their survival if they stay. When Mrs. Brisby tries to warn them that NIMH will come for them, he resorts to trying to physically silence her.

* ''Film/{{The Jungle Book 2016}}'': Shere Khan. The reason everyone [[TheDreaded fears]] him is not just his [[LightningBruiser vast]] [[ImplacableMan power]], but his perfect willingness to [[TheSociopath violate]] the jungle law when it suits him.

* The Director from ''WesternAnimation/Nimona2023''. She will do anything, no matter how reprehensible, in order to protect the kingdom from monsters. She voices her resolves right after personally running a sword through Gloreth's last living descendant, Sir Goldenloin—or, at least, someone who took on his form.

* The Green Goblin from ''Film/SpidermanNoWayHome''. What ultimately makes him as dangerous as he is. No matter what the situation is, he gives his all and shows absolutely zero restraint, and his belief that he is above human morality coupled with his open disgust for weakness means that there does not seem to be a single line he's averse to crossing.

* Erik Killmonger from ''Film/BlackPanther2018''. Erik will do anything to get to his goals. Anything. An example is how he handles his two allies: When Klaue is holding Erik's lover hostage, he just [[ShootTheHostage shoots them both]] — his lover because she was unimportant, and Klaue because he was a means to an end. He unflinchingly makes split-second, violent decisions with no remorse, all for the sake of reaching his goal. And, as he says in this section's quote — all the killing and lying he did was so he could reach this point.

* The High Evolutionary from ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVolume3''. Played for horror. He goes about his quest to 'perfect the galaxy' blissfully untroubled by questions like 'is this ethical', 'how much will this cost', 'is this likely to work', and 'is this on any conceivable level a good and useful idea'. In the end, he's mostly responsible for making the galaxy worse, not better.

* [[MegaCorp Weyland-Yutani]] from ''Franchise/{{Alien}}''. The company wants to control the xenomorph for profit and to increase their wealth/influence. To this end, they sacrifice their own employees, doom an entire squadron of soldier or destroy entire civilizations. One only need look at their agents/executives (Ash, Burke, Bishop...etc).

** [[RoboticPsychopath David]] from ''{{Film/Prometheus}}'' and ''{{Film/Alien Covenant}}''. As evidenced by his famous question "How far would you go to get your answers". For David, the answer is however far it takes. He even remarks to Shaw in Prometheus that once his creators aren't around to program him anymore, he'll be "free", which was likely a factor in leading Weyland to his demise.



* ''Film/GodzillaVsKong'': The human BigBadWannabe [[Characters/MonsterVerseWalterSimmons Walter Simmons]] is a [[ManipulativeBastard manipulative]], ruthless, {{narcissist}}ic CorruptCorporateExecutive in the vein of the ''James Bond'' villains below, who will do absolutely ''anything'' to get what he wants [[TheSociopath without moral restraint or remorse]]. Though Simmons believes he's establishing humanity as the dominant species, in truth he's motivated to satisfy his own ego before anyone else can rob him of the glory he feels he deserves: and to that end, he sacrifices and intentionally endangers millions of people [[LackOfEmpathy without shame]], he commits {{corporate conspiracy}}, and resorts to all kinds of other underhanded acts; to say nothing of how he hasn't taken away any [[GreenAesop lessons from the previous films' events that might contradict his objective]] in ten years. Simmons doesn't even seem to care much that he's sending his own daughter on a life-threatening mission that will further his agenda. He finally refuses to back down from his decision to infuse the GreenRocks [[spoiler:into Mechagodzilla]] [[UnfinishedUntestedUsedAnyway immediately]] in Hong Kong, [[DetrimentalDetermination which is what seals his fate]] and [[SelfDisposingVillain ruins his plans]]. The novelization says that Simmons knows his decisions are putting his own life at stake, yet he can't and won't back down.

* [[MorallyBankruptBanker John Tuld]] from ''Film/MarginCall''. He is utterly ruthless and committed to a singular vision, even when it becomes clear that the decision (seemingly made over a span of just a few hours) will radically impact his company's reputation on the stock market, if not outright destroy it. It's notable that in his final scene, he's shown casually enjoying a steak dinner after the fire sale and nonchalantly tells Sam that he "feels better" about the whole thing, because it will all be water under the bridge soon enough.
