Ranker's 15 Movies Where Every Character Is a Villain

"Conventional wisdom says every film needs to have a hero, but there are plenty of movies with no good guys. Taking this route provides filmmakers with a tricky task, because they're asking audience members to identify with - and possibly even root for - characters who have few redeeming qualities. Often times, movies will take a dark comedic approach in these situations, allowing viewers to laugh at the wicked ways of the people onscreen. Others take a different route, using the no-good-guys idea to dive into themes of morality. Movies where every character is a villain don't have to be exclusively about criminals, although many are. Some are simply stories in which everyone is significantly flawed in some way. They treat each other poorly, commit ill-advised acts, or are just plain unlikable. Whatever the case, these pictures are notable for lacking clearly defined heroes as we know them." - ranker.com
