But belief is not evil. Selfishness is greed, the desire to harm others for your gain. But desire, are not evil. To receive pain and wish it back on others is to wish for everything to be fair. To be blind is the to be susceptible to being misguided. To be selfish is instinct, and can be born out of self interest, or out of love and desire for others prosperity. But evil. Evil is to cause pain, to blind, to be selfish. Not for yourself or for another. Not for prosperity or joy or penance. Evil is to do harm without cause or reason. Evil doesn't care about itself or anything else. It is just evil. A villain can be evil. But not all villains are evil. A villain is considered bad. Evil is neither good or bad. Because what is one's good, is another's bad. What is one's support is another's burden. One's dream, another's nightmare. Evil is not bound by these subjective beliefs. It is simply a truth of life."
This is by far one of the best monologues I've seen in a while. It offers an insight to the character and offers a philosophy we question as he says it. I'm surprised this isn't from an actual movie because I could see this guy as the main antagonist. This definitely needs more views.
Transcript: You probably have an idea of what a bad guy is from various films that you've seen, the evil laugh, the thirst for power. Maybe you've even captured a couple of sloppy criminals, and maybe you think I am one of the worst of them, right? One of the Hitlers, Stalins, one of the Ted Bundys. You want to know something about Hitler though? He bathed, excessively. A germaphobe, you know that? Does that sound evil, to you? Because it sounds to me like a crazy person trying to cleanse his country, of filthy outsiders. No hitler was just a failed art student, with phobias. Evil was never his purpose he was just a crazy man. Evil isn't crazy. Evil is just evil. Hitler lost the war, because he was an idiot. An idiot. There were at least six different tactics he could have used to win the war, instead he basically ensured his own destruction. Stalin killed people out of fear. It's not evil, that's just cowardice. He was good at killing his own people, but he had no idea, how to win a war, or execute a precise task. Even psychopathic killers like Harold Shipman, or Ted Bundy, they all have some sort of self-indulgent, manic need to exert power. That's not evil, that's just insanity. You see, you mistake germophobic, paranoid, mentally disturbed maniacs, for masters of evil. You find them scary and intimidating. True evil isn't scary. It's not. It's friendly and comforting, like a doctor administering a lethal injection. Did it ever occur to you, that despite all of your crime shows and your superhero movies, that you have no idea what you're dealing with? Why would you? You don't see a poisonous gas, you just feel your lungs burning. You don't see a bullet, you just hear a loud bang and the darkness. True evil is invisible and accurate and driven. It cannot be stopped.
this shit is so good. legit thought "what is this FROM i wanna see the whole thing!" seriously. was this scripted or were there just notes to go through? cause if this is scripted it feels improvised and that is some skill holy shit. if its improvised from notes tho? also equally impressive! like fuck. that gave me chills, like slowly realising whats actually going on. this is a horror short and nobody can convince me otherwise. brilliant
I’m writing a story of a villain that’s also in search of like “true evil” and shit. I love villains, with evil laughs, monologues, etc. I wouldn’t exactly with this character’s definition of true evil. But the point was clear and amazing! Obviously there could be improvements in this scene yada yada, but im not a film junkie 😂. Either way great video!!!
well then let me help you, true evil is petty ad without reason, there is no greater motivation behind it there's no purpose driving it and no end goal it is born of will. the will to do what you want for no reason at all, no vengeance no hatred no justice just the pure fact that you wanted that particular bad thing to happen and so you made it.
@@acewmd. That’s a pretty good pure evil def. However, if you could answer, If you had a room full of people who had that exact same thought process equally, how would you distinguish the most evil among them? Being more than just “beyond forgiveness”. How down the “bad or evil” rabbit hole can we go?
@@anthonydeltoro- I guess it would depend on how much their willing to do to get what they want, they can't be emotionless in it either because that's just a socio or psychopath, their want for whatever it is just has to override that feeling of regret or unwillingness. I guess it's like this, did you kill those men? " Yes, and not a day goes by that I don't see their faces in my nightmares." then why did you kill them." I wanted to do it" Evil is just pure want/motivation towards a goal sacrificing everything necessary whatever it may be, in a way it would almost be inspiring until you realize what they did. there are no reasons past want its deep down what drives anyone, sure emotions work as a justification as well but if you still know a thing is going to make you feel some way and you follow through on it not because you were forced but because your want to do it was greater. I'd call that evil. it's not sympathetic it's just kind of mustache twirly since there's no greater motivation for it and no justification past desire. Tl;DR The one willing to do the most even for something simple is probably the evilest one in that room they care what must be done but not in any way that would prevent them from acting towards it.
@@acewmd. Interesting take, Appreciate it. It reminds me of that one time Marvel made Thanos make a completely random normal human’s life miserable. Just because. Honestly I 100% have thought of the “Just because” route in evil. In fact i think there may be multiple paths of evil. Here’s my little deep dive for you. Force of nature: This is the type of “evil” caused by just natural actions being at play. Time, Earthquakes, Tornadoes, or even in a fictional sense emotionaless gods just doing what they were “made/programed” to do. Insanity or more specifically irrationality: Basically doing actions that are “bad” but not being able to discern that. Or as any psychopathic argument goes on. Also in a perhaps fictional case for a robotic AI: “a glitch in the system”. The just because route: I mean you explained perfectly. Why is said person or thing committing evil? Just cuz. Calculated: Calculated or vengeful or meaningful evil. An evil goal set that the person knows it’s evil but has an inherent need or reason to do so. Somewhere along those lines is how I see evil is divided up. Give or take.
@@anthonydeltoro- those make a bit of sense and id say definitely fit the bill yeah, a godlike being just doing its purpose mechanically is definitely not socio/psychopathic its just natural. you hit the nail on the head there and the same applies to the A.I. example. Vengeance is a justification though so I'm not sure to what extent it can count as evil. it's got a deeper motivation since its getting even or more. Yeah, it sounds like a good definition for evil is just that it happens with no deeper meaning than goals/desires for a particular thing at whatever cost however it may affect you, its unjustifiable because its simply just how it is so there's no need to justify it. It would be like asking a rock for its reasoning on falling, we know why but the rock is incapable of caring or justifying itself.

Hope you guys don't mind, I made a little song type thing that goes along with the dialog with the video. Good shit here guys I really enjoyed it. The video is on my channel if you want to see it.
That was *almost* better than good, but the (albeit necessary) monologue kind of defeats the twist. I guess its a catch 22, otherwise you would likely have a video jumping from the 3s to the 3m43s mark lol That said is a good monologue

@@fartypebbles Nah, I will stick with my opinion and not write new dialogue to satisfy an internet rando, but I do encourage you to wait. While waiting maybe you should read a book about logic.
Reminds me of a similar sort of quote I heard once.
"There are 4 things that can make someone a villain. A wound. Blindness. Selfishness. And evil.
A wound can make someone wish for vengeance. Retribution. But that is not evil. Pain is not evil.
Blindness prevents someone from seeing truth, and make them follow the wrong path. Do what they do not know they've done. Trust liars. But belief is not evil.
Selfishness is greed, the desire to harm others for your gain. But desire, are not evil.
To receive pain and wish it back on others is to wish for everything to be fair. To be blind is the to be susceptible to being misguided. To be selfish is instinct, and can be born out of self interest, or out of love and desire for others prosperity.
But evil. Evil is to cause pain, to blind, to be selfish. Not for yourself or for another. Not for prosperity or joy or penance. Evil is to do harm without cause or reason.
Evil doesn't care about itself or anything else. It is just evil.
A villain can be evil. But not all villains are evil. A villain is considered bad. Evil is neither good or bad. Because what is one's good, is another's bad. What is one's support is another's burden. One's dream, another's nightmare. Evil is not bound by these subjective beliefs. It is simply a truth of life."
That is a REALLY good description of evil.
