All these Buffistas and no one has mentioned **Angelus**? Not to take anything away from the Mayor, Spike, or Dru, but no one fucked with Buffy’s head like Evil Angel in Season 2. The drama! The angst! The super creepy seduction of Drusilla! And, unlike almost every other Big Bad, he actually killed someone we liked. ---

I nominate the entire Klingon race from Star Trek: TOS. Those guys were mean. ---
