People might know Carnage as a supervillain but what they do not realize is that the symbiotic parasite has had multiple hosts throughout the years. One of the most dangerous hosts that Carnage was attached to was serial killer Cletus Kasady. The first and the most infamous host of Carnage, Kasady enjoyed killing and that gave Carnage more power over its host.

Since Carnage was an offspring of Venom who also liked killing, Cletus Kasady and Carnage became unstoppable. The bloodlust made the duo incredibly erratic and one of the most terrifying villains of all time, making them #3 on this list. Carnage will most probably seen when Tom Hardy’s Venom 3 releases and maybe he might get to fight Spider-Man after all!

2) Sabretooth

It is in the later years that it is revealed to the world that Sabretooth is a killer. Oftentimes unable to stop himself because he might be enjoying too much, Sabretooth had to bury countless bodies simply because they were in his way. With abilities of healing factor, vicious claws, and greater agility, Sabretooth is the 2nd most dangerous villain in Marvel comics.

1) Red Skull

Helming the Nazi philosophy of world dominion, the Red Skull is Captain America’s villain and is quite good at it too. In the MCU, Hugo Weaving’s Red Skull hasn’t been portrayed to his full extent as seen in the comic books. Being a walking reminder of Nazism and the terrible things that humanity is capable of, Red Skull is quite a terrible villain.

Not because he has done some violent things or killed some people. But because he represents the old ways of violence. Surviving somehow in the end, Red Skull is simply a reminder of humans against humans and how humans are oftentimes…worse than supervillains!
