😈 Which Movie Villain Archetype Are You?

Every great blockbuster needs someone worth booing. Some villains plot in a lair lit by a single candle, some cackle while a city burns, and some just want a little respect after getting passed over for a promotion. This quiz looks at how you handle pressure, power, rivalry, and the occasional betrayal, then matches your instincts to a classic villain type.

Answer ten questions based on what you would actually do, not what sounds coolest on a Friday night. Your result will land you in one of five categories, from a calculating puppet master to a slick, lovable troublemaker. Grab a friend, compare results, and see who in your group is secretly plotting world domination.
