Peter Stormare in Constantine is by far my favorite devil depiction in movies, because of just how he acts is how I envision the real devil would act like. Another awesome movie depiction of the devil which sadly wasn't in this is Mephistopheles from Ghost Rider played by Peter Fonda.
Anybody who has actually READ Greek mythology knows Hades is NOT the Devil. But it's not the first time Disney has appropriated something and got it completely wrong.
To add extra irony to it: Of all the gods in the ancient Greek pantheon (especially among the big three, Hades and his brothers Zeus and Poseidon), Hades is probably the nicest and most moral by human standards. Perhaps his worst crime was tricking Persephone into marrying him, which is admittedly pretty scummy (though still leagues better than his horndog brothers who thoughtlessly violate anything with a pulse just because they can), but even then Hades is still kind enough to let her leave the underworld for half of each year to visit her mother Demeter, whose happiness at her daughter's return brings spring and whose sadness at her departure brings winter.
Hades didn’t belong on this list he’s not technically the devil that’s a Christian bibliography, hades is lord of the underworld in Greek mythology, a totally different sentient being.
I agree Hades had no business being on this list because he was never a devil and he was never evil people just were afraid of him because they fear death that's why they were afraid of him most people are afraid of death and that's a normal human behavior
Chernabog from Disney's Fantasia deserves an honorable mention. Walt and his team perfectly captured the animated embodiment of who Satan is, and how he treats souls from the underworld. It made no attempt to be child-friendly whatsoever!
Viggo Mortensen NAILED it as Lucifer. He's not on the screen much but when he is, he steals the whole show. It's no easy task to upstage Christopher Walken but he did it with almost no effort. The lines he says are absolutely legendary, such as telling Elias Koteas about how he truly was the monster under his bed when he prayed as a young kid.
hades:*doesn't cheat on his wife* *is the god of the underworld not dead" "genially one of of the better Olympians" christians: underworld? so the devil?
@@LunaOrgana Well, kidnapping someone’s bride was less frowned upon in Ancient Greece, and depending on what version you read, Zeus actually okayed the kidnapping in the first place, behind Demeter’s back (aka, the og helicopter parent)
She was good but she basically was the same devil they mentioned from bedazzled other than that she was gender swapped because that bedazzled came out before and he did just as good of a job as she did though he was the original
Agreed! Liz should have been on the list. She would have been the only female incarnation. The devil would be more inviting if beautiful and bedazzling.
Hades is not the devil. He just rules the Underworld; he doesn't control who goes where. The Underworld consists of The Elysian Fields, Asphodel Fields, and Tartarus (heaven, limbo, and hell, if you need equivalents). Three minor gods, Minos, Rhadamanthus, and Aeacus, are the ones who actually make the decision.
lol who are we to say who the devil is anyway? Besides all those gods that move from mythos to mythos a lot of the time with just a name change are depictions of naughty angels who threw a hissy fit because they can’t have families but the Creator showed human more affection and gave them a life outside of servitude driven by choice and the desire to grow a family and a legacy of sorts. Who is the devil? Is he the covering cherub or a fiery serpent formed of lightning and fire. Samael, Samyaza … Azazel maybe? All sins were ascribed to him and he introduced filth and the blood shed of the innocents. Lucifer? Prometheus light bearer? The morning star? A title even Christ claims in the book so maybe we’re looking at it all wrong? There is one big bad, yes… But, maybe all of our mythology and modern pop culture is derived or has some symbolism involved with the naughty hosts of heaven. It makes so much more sense when you view everything through that lens or it’s all just aliens or whatever 🤷♂️
Viggo Mortensen (The Prophecy) is my top pick as well for conjuring an unbelievably dominating and memorable character for so little screen time. I'm also a big fan of De Niro (Angel Heart) and Stormare (Constantine) for the same reason: they somehow stole the show in a few short minutes. Outstanding performances all around.
DeNiro used to stand up in the lattice of walkways that crisscrossed the shooting soundstage's ceiling and watch the film being shot. He would click and drum his long fingernails on the metal railings and would not speak with other members of the cast. He put a super creepy vibe in the air that the whole cast could feel. Method Acting.
I've got issues with putting Hades on this list, because he's the God of the Underworld, not the Devil...two totally different things here, and Hades is actually one of the nicer Olympian gods/goddesses
Viggo was by far the best, I can watch his screen time again and again and never get tired of it. The same with Constantine, Peter's performance is riveting and by far my favorite part of the movie.
I was just trying to think of his name. He was the 2nd best devil. Al Pacino the 1st from The Devil's Advocate. And Mr. Williams was Prince's dad in Purple Rain. R.I.P.
I'm content with "Constantine" being number 3, because Viggo did make an amazing devil in "Prophecy." What I'm disappointed about is that the devil from "The Last Temptation of Christ" didn't even make the list. The devil embodied by an innocent-looking and sounding little girl? I got chills the first time I ever saw that movie because I knew instantly who 'she' really was, and it was such a great twist. It was also a reminder that evil can come in the most unexpected of packages.
I'm so glad you topped the list with my personal favorite. Viggo stole the entire movie with his protrayal, the writing was masterful and the acting full of malice and hate and... well... evil. I don't know that anyone else has ever captured the role as perfectly as that. His speech about humanity is chilling and magnificent and, quite frankly, Viggo Mortensen's Lucifer alone makes the movie worth watching.
Sooo, disagree heavily with Hades on the list. Even in the disney version. Hades was not the Greek version of the devil. There was plenty of other options to put in that slot.
Yes Viggo was amazing with his few short moments. Calm but creepy and intimidating in such a quiet way. Tim Curry is solid #2 for me. He scared me so badly in that role as a kid.
My personal favorites DiNero as Louis Cyphre in Angel Heart Al Pacino in The Devil’s Advocate Tom Waits as Mr. Nick in The Imaginarium Jack Nicholson in The Witches of Eastwick
They forgot the 9th gate.... that was one of the most intresting incarnations of devil. Make matters even more intriguing if the fact that you didn't even know she was the devil till around the end.
Before ever seeing the movie, in my mind as a kid, I always pictured the devil to look EXACTLY how Tim Curry was designed in Legend. When I first saw that movie it was like they ripped the image straight from my head.
I don't think I remember ever watching Angel heart and I have not given this devil a chance and I've deeply regretted it cuz I think he would fit right nicely in my top tier section of devils
Sees thumbnail, likes video. My favorites are definitely the ones played by Tom Waits, Harvey Keitel, Peter Stomare, Tim Currey, Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, and the ones shown in the movies "South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut", "The VVitch", "Tenacious D", and also a shout-out to "Time Bandits".
No joke Pacino was a good devil but I definitely recommend you watch prophecy that was a very good devil all three movies I think he was in or maybe like two movies I need to rewatch the series because it was a fantastic series and he definitely was one of my top Devils right up there without Pacino but I don't think I remember my first favorite devil but I definitely remember my very memorable ones
YES! I'm so glad Viggo Mortensen's portrayal got recognized in this video, at #1 no less. I might've liked to have seen Daniel Radcliffe's Iggy Parrish in "Horns" be on this list but overall, I'm satisfied with the top picks.
I still don't know what Ignatius "Ig" Perrish was supposed to be. The Devil reborn? Cursed by a demon? Other supernatural interference that somehow manifested in his condition? To sum up, I'm still confused.
These were movie devils, not TV show devils. If it was TV show devils that there is a highly likely if almost absolute chance that Tom Ellis in Lucifer would be number one.
Personally I prefer hellblazers devil and the Lucifer comic devil cuz both Devils look like David Bowie I'm sad that the Lucifer series did not make him a blonde
I mean Jack Nicholson would probably make one of the best movie devils. I mean if you can play Jack Torrence with the level of crazy I mean what's stopping him from going into that territory and his personality just fits it
Sooo happy about Constantine's Devil, entry number 3! The movie kind of sucks, but what uplifts it is Peter Stormare and Tilda Swanson as Gabriel. I'm about to watch The Prophecy any day now. Would've appreciated an "Honorable Mentions" in this video, though. :3
Hi Mojo this is a unrelated question but can you make a video of How to Train your Dragon vs Kung fu Panda to see which one is better can you please make a video of it.
I was practically salivating to comment: Viggo Mortensen as Lucifer in Prophecy. I was sure he'd be overlooked, but thank Dog I watched till the end. Great list and the best Devil is at #1.
I agree. The portrayal strikes fear in his appearance, and when he speaks, everything else fades behind him. Viggo may have been convincing, with his words, but Darkness had so much more. He stood like 9 foot tall in costume, too
@@xokayb7l2 Yes Bro! There is more to his acting than the rest. Dont get me wrong - the list isnt bad at all! But Tim Curry ... < standing applause meme >
Honorable Mention: Mr.Sims/Satan- Tales From The Hood (1995) and R.I.P Clarence Williams III Reason: THAT Reveal. If you haven't seen that or the movies, do so ASAP!!!
Is anyone know about an English movie or a series in which an Indian sales girl works in a shoe store and sells her soul to the devil who comes in a famous pop star costume. Or avatar?
I watched this whole video and was expecting Clarence Williams III's Mr Simms and felt he got robbed of a spot on y'all list . Especially when there wasn't even an honorable mention.
What about the Devil from Haxen? He only appears in a couple of scenes, but how many cinematic versions of Satan were actually played by the film's director?
Always loved Max von Sydow's performance in Needful Things. He played Jesus, then had to be an exorcist and finally had a great time being the Devil himself! 😊👺🖤
I'm still on Mr Scratch, but just wanted to say I love how WatchMojo's Top Whatever always somehow makes an entry of something I add to my "Must watch"-list, although I mostly don't agree. Thank you!

Anybody who has actually READ Greek mythology knows Hades is NOT the Devil. But it's not the first time Disney has appropriated something and got it completely wrong.
no but you cant deny that hades does feel like a devilish being
if greek mythology didn’t exist christianity would not exist either its just a totally new made up history that they created …

I was about to comment this too. As amazing as he is, he's very different to the devil, I would have put Elizabeth Hurley from Bedazzled in his place.
I agree Hades had no business being on this list because he was never a devil and he was never evil people just were afraid of him because they fear death that's why they were afraid of him most people are afraid of death and that's a normal human behavior
@@bekleedee exactly 👍🏼
I couldn't agree more, even I am having a hard time believing they thought Hades was a devil.
@@bekleedee Or Chernabog from Fantasia, because talk about a creepy devil
Chernabog from Disney's Fantasia deserves an honorable mention. Walt and his team perfectly captured the animated embodiment of who Satan is, and how he treats souls from the underworld. It made no attempt to be child-friendly whatsoever!
I agree.
Viggo Mortensen NAILED it as Lucifer. He's not on the screen much but when he is, he steals the whole show. It's no easy task to upstage Christopher Walken but he did it with almost no effort. The lines he says are absolutely legendary, such as telling Elias Koteas about how he truly was the monster under his bed when he prayed as a young kid.
I agree. His lines are classic!
hades:*doesn't cheat on his wife* *is the god of the underworld not dead" "genially one of of the better Olympians"
christians: underworld? so the devil?
He did kinda….kidnap his wife….
But very valid points compared to Zeus’ deeds
@@LunaOrgana Well, kidnapping someone’s bride was less frowned upon in Ancient Greece, and depending on what version you read, Zeus actually okayed the kidnapping in the first place, behind Demeter’s back (aka, the og helicopter parent)
Hades did cheat on Persephone, twice if not more, but because of Adonis - I’d like to think they have an open marriage
Hades is not the devil, He is a god
@@lauralugo9341 yes, Hades is a god
"Devil's Advocate" is one of my favorites
I agree with Viggo Mortensen taking number 1. I was thinking of him the entire video. 👍
he is a brilliant actor
He was creepy as hell too. (Pardon the pun)
Agreed, I was going to be pissed if he didn't make the list. Truly elevated that movie, single-handedly.
I can't believe you didn't say Elizabeth Hurley in the remake of Bedazzled... She would have been in my top five.
Yeah, why the hell not? She’s like the movie equivalent to Rias Gremory from High School DxD!
She was good but she basically was the same devil they mentioned from bedazzled other than that she was gender swapped because that bedazzled came out before and he did just as good of a job as she did though he was the original
She's the epitomy of temptation
Agreed! Liz should have been on the list.
She would have been the only female incarnation.
The devil would be more inviting if beautiful and bedazzling.

Hades wasnt like The devil he just was god of all dead, he ruled heaven and hell, his job was not let dead people out and alive people in
Had to scroll too much for this!
Thank you.. I was kinda thrown by his inclusion on this list.
Both Constantine and Prophecy Lucifers are my top two favorites EVER!!!
Legend as a whole mediocre pretty to look at. Tim curry. A fucking mazing
The one on the movie Legend was the best looking Devil
Here's the thing. Legend's Curry had a superior. Then does The Golden Child's Noomspa (Charles Dance) also count?
Agreed.
Technically, Tim Curry's character was called Darkness, who mentioned his father in the movie.
I've got issues with putting Hades on this list, because he's the God of the Underworld, not the Devil...two totally different things here, and Hades is actually one of the nicer Olympian gods/goddesses
Very, very disappointed not to see George Burns as Harry O. Tophet in "Oh God, You Devil" on this list.
Or Lucifer as played by Terrance Zudnich in "The Devil's Carnival".
SORRY!
Viggo was by far the best, I can watch his screen time again and again and never get tired of it. The same with Constantine, Peter's performance is riveting and by far my favorite part of the movie.
Damn, no Clarence Williams III? He traumatized me. RIP.
Isn't he from Tales from the Hood?
I was just trying to think of his name. He was the 2nd best devil. Al Pacino the 1st from The Devil's Advocate. And Mr. Williams was Prince's dad in Purple Rain. R.I.P.
Everybody always forgets him.
Shame since his protrayal was frightening.
That’s how i came here for they dropped the ball
Y'all missed the devil in Tales From the Hood. He was something, plus funny as ever. The actor that played him passed away like a month ago.
The Prophecy (or God´s Army here in Germany) is one of my favourites. I mean C´mon, Viggo Mortensen as Lucifer and Christopher Walken as Gabriel!
I was about to say, "Where the fudge is Viggo?" I was pleasantly surprised.
Al Pacino in The Devil's Advocate, De Niro in Angel Heart and Peter Stormare in Constantine are my favourite portrayals of 😈!
Yesssyou picked Viggo's Devil! Still my favorite
I'm content with "Constantine" being number 3, because Viggo did make an amazing devil in "Prophecy."

Yes…Angel Heart one of my very favorites…it was such a different movie when it came out .
Such a beautiful movie...Alan Parker was a great director.
Is Ironically that as a Christian i love how they represent Devils or Ghosts on Media?
That’s weird the way I see they would all upset.
I'm similar, although I have faith in Christ. However, it's also interesting to see God is represented in movies too.
We’ve pretty much settled that Morgan Freeman is God.

Gabriel Byrne's devil is my favourite
I know it's a series and not a movie but shout out to Ray Wise's portrayal in Reaper. One of my favourite portrayals ever
Not even a mention for the 2010 movie, Devil? The one where a bunch of people got stranded in an elevator and we're killed 1 by 1. 😒

What amazing about Prince of Darkness is it scarily depicts Satan without even showing Satan!

The movie Prince of Darkness was a good 1980' s movie. Peter Stormare was so fantastic, and we must not forget the incredible Tim Curry.
