Total hijack....
When I saw this thread first thing this morning my first thought wasn't a character,but a Actors that tend to play villains....

I thought about
Ed Harris - (the Rock,history of violence,National treasure 2)
John Malkovich - Con air
Tim Currey- Don't laugh- (Rocky horror picture show ,Annie (rooster),and The butler in Clue)

If I had a to pick a character I'd say Denzel Washington in Training day...even though I'm not real fond of the movie...

I have a hard time thinking of Ed Harris as a villain, mainly because the two movies of his that I've seen the most (Glengarry, Glen Ross and The Abyss), he really didn't play the villain.

I have a little bit of a hard time with Malkovich, though he did play a bitchin Cyrus the Virus in Con Air...because the other two movies I've seen him in a lot (Of Mice and Men and The Man in the Iron Mask) he played the good guy.

As far as Tim Curry goes, he actually played a villain you didn't list there that I damned near considered instead of Hannibal Lecter for this thread...but didn't because I figured everyone would think it was blatant stephen king bias on my part. Tim Curry played the ultimately scary clown, Pennywise, in "It."

I also want to give mention to a villain who has never uttered a word on the screen, but brought horror onto the screen. Jason from Friday the 13 Th series still is a fan favorite among horror fans.

Malkovich was also the bad guy in In the line of fire....I never saw the man in the iron mask...Wasn't he also the killer in jenifer eight,or was that Lance hendrickson...I can't remember off the top of my head....I also think of him in Dangerous liasions...and Mary Shelly,where he played both Jeckyl and Hyde

Ed Harris was also one of John Nashes...bad figments of his imagination...in a beautiful mind...The evil director in the Truman show...

I keep wanting to watch "IT" When I see it on Scifi....

Modified to add since you brought up the Abyss..(I forgot his name had t go look it up...)
Michael Biehn..Who played the bad ranger dude in the Abyss,and played the bad guy Johnny Ringo in Tombstone...( the only other movie I can think of him in was navy seals where he was a good guy..)

He played one other good guy role that I'll bet you've seen once or twice...or a hundred times. Kyle Reese, the "sent back in time" father of John Connor in the original "Terminator" movie.

Along with Kevin Spacey, my nod goes to Denzel Washington in Training Day.

Just make sure that tub is clean, homey.

Dexter is a hero, not a villain.  He's an unlikely hero, but a hero nonetheless.
