Ranking the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s 8 best villains
By Mark Lynch
4. Kilgrave
Kilgrave’s power to control people has caused him to do some horrendous things. On a lesser level, he takes whatever he wants. If for some reason someone is rude to him he makes them hurt themselves. Kilgrave one made a guy throw scorching hot coffee in his own face for questioning him. Now, on a much grander level, he’s abused people, made families live in closets while he lived in their houses, and he’s made people kill. Kilgrave’s powers used to only work in close proximity. Once his powers got stronger, he could control more people at once, from further away, and for longer periods of time.
Kilgrave once enslaved Jessica Jones for months and made her do his bidding. Once Jessica thought she was free of Kilgrave for good, he made Jessica send him pictures of her smiling every day by a certain time. If he didn’t, he’d kill someone. Even though he wasn’t using his powers to control her, Kilgrave still had his clutches in her. In season two of Jessica Jones Killgrave was still in her head and making her do things she didn’t want to. Kilgrave is one the most depraved villains in the MCU and it wouldn’t be shocking if he faked his death.
