For all you bad girls and boys, I think this one opens a wide range of possibilities.

Have fun - in an evil sort of way.

With her lover Aaron the Moor, Tamara, Queen of the Goths, took revenge on her hubby Timon of Athens by kidnapping his daughter Lavinia, cutting out her tongue and chopping off her hands.

That Shakespeare, eh? Sort of Reservoir Dogs with Saws.

Although he's technically a tragic hero, killing his wife certainly makes him a villan in my eyes. I give you Othello - a chocolate by Neuhause.

A purist might consider Anna Russell to be a villain for her satirical send-up of Hamlet: "Hamletto, or Prosciuttino."

You can listen to Hamletto online by clicking on the media link at the bottom of this article.

My favorite line: "Here comes each actor on his ass."

I went with Shylock the money lender from The Merchant of Venice.

Here he is slicing off some of his mad cheddar for Antonio.

I never saw the Richie Rich production of The Merchant of Venice, but it looks like they skimped on the costume budget a little.

Michael Almereyda is the villain, for his 2000 rendition of a modern Hamlet, apparently on acid. Ethan Hawke is merely his accomplice.

I love Branagh's portrayal of Iago - stone cold.

I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it.

Lest I be accused of 'hinkle pinkling around,' I sent in my votes.

With entertainment like that you can hinkle pinkle any time!

PS - To vote or not to vote, that is the question.
I voted - that is the answer!
