Who is your favorite mad scientst/evil genius of horror?

I'd have to pick Dr. Hertbert West from the Re-Animator series. He's just a great character, plus Jeffrey Combs is a great actor.

While Combs' Herbert West would IMHO be the best modern mad scientist, I have a thing for the Universal Clascs.

I absolutely loved Colin Clive in both Frankenstein and Bride of Frank and he'd definitely be my #1 pick. Quite the tragedy what happened to him in real life.

I would go with Combs also as far as the ones from these days but the older ones rom Farnkestien and so on certainly set the tone IMO.

Very well said. Fact is, that it's because of the great performances in the beginning of horror that made it so successful... thus creating opportunities for the more current films and actors we love.
