There are all kinds of Christmas lists floating around the web this holiday. No one ever pays tribute to the bad guys who make for the best antagonists. Even though they usually come around in the end, they still give the good guys a run for their money.
The Top 5 Most Evil Christmas Villains:
-
5. Evil Magician - Frosty The Snowman
The evil magician cut Frosty no slack. He kept trying to steal that damn hat, leaving Frosty lifeless. The guy had no heart. (I couldn’t find an actual pic of him from the movie, so enjoy this stuffed animal fill-in)
4. The Bumble - Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer
Probably one of the most misunderstood villains. Sure he was scary and he gave Yukon Cornelius a run for his money, but he was a softy inside. Once they fixed that tooth, he was a big teddy bea…errr bumble.
3. The Grinch - How The Grinch Stole Christmas
The Grinch was terrible. Stealing all of Whoville’s gifts. Plus he tortured that poor dog. If I lived in Whoville I would have tarred and feathered The Grinch, even if his heart had grown in size. Stealing my gifts is unforgivable.
2. Mr. Potter - It’s a Wonderful Life
For those of you who’ve seen “It’s A Wonderful Life”, you know that Mr. Potter was a mean, mean man. He took over the town, put George out on the street, and almost drove him to suicide. For those of you who didn’t see the movie, I just ruined it for you. Sorry.
1. Marv and Harry - Home Alone
The Sticky Bandits are everyone’s favorite Christmas Villain Duo. Going up against Kevin McAllister meant they were doomed from the start. I’ve never seen two people take such a beating while relentlessly attempting to break into a house. That damn McAllister kid, so resourceful.
So there are my Top 5 Most Evil Christmas Villains.
Did I miss anyone that should clearly be on the list?

Marv and Harry were the wet bandits, not sticky, wet. Remember, they flooded everyone’s house? Come on, I expect more out of you.
Right, but didn’t they try to change their name in a sequel…? I prefer the sticky bandits over wet, but thats just me
True. Home Along 2 featured the Sticky Bandits. The first movie is far superior to the second, which in turn means that the wet bandits are better villains.
A few other christmas movie villains
The Heat Miser (Year Without a Santa Claus)
The Snow Miser (Year Without a Sana Claus)
Mr. Shirley (Christmas Vacation)
B.Z. (Santa Claus)
Oogie Boogie (A nightmare before christmas)
ebinezer scrouge. probably one of the most known xmas villians. come on now. you clearly should’ve known that.
Umm. I would like to interject.
Though Home Alone is a truly amazing production. I think that Home Alone 2 is a rare example of a sequel being more powerful than the original. Despite the strikingly similar plot and mere change of location i still find that HA2 provides more laughs and enjoyment than its big brother.
How about the poisoning of our culture by the commodification of the birth of christ? Not a catchy enough villain?
Thats a societal process, not a christmas movie.
You’re perpetuating the anti-Bumble ethos that has been running rampant in our society for as long as I can remember.
What about Comet, who took advantage of his position coaching impressionable children to segregate poor Rudolph? Wasn’t he the real villain?
uh what?
theres poop on that dollar!
You forgot the “Burger Meister Meister Burger!”
i think the ghost of christmas future is scary as hell. i never watched the scrooge christmas specials on tv and to tell you the truth, i actually hate the movie anyway.
Does Nightmare before Christmas count? The Boogyman? Lock Shock and Barrel, his moraly questionable hechman.
That list is deplorable. If you want evil you want characters out of Black Christmas or Christmas Evil not some movie witha a little kid in it.
I like your concept but…ya need to work on the list.
haha yea I guess I should retitle it to be “Top 5 Most Evil Characters From Family Christmas Movies”. Sorry for the mislead.
