Lots of material here to chose from. This is just my list, and I would be interested in seeing what others had to suggest.

# 5 was very stoic and perfect for the movie.



#4: It is never stated whether or not she was the devil, but nonetheless the character fits the role perfectly.



# 3, have to include just for its comedy and being the best part of the movie.



#2, a must although at times a bit perfunctory. However, his diatribe at the end is still to this day an epic rant.



#1 is an absolute must for me, and it is hands down the best performance of the devil in a movie. Plus, he was only in the movie for about 15 minutes and managed to totally steal the show.

call me a stick-in-the-mud, but I like my Satans to look like Satan. I guess that's why I never quite dig most movie depictions (even South Park's Satan isn't cruel/menacing enough for my taste)

now here's a Satan you can set your watch to

That seems like it might fall under a stricter category, but good addition.

I also think the # 1, 4 and 5 on my list still manage to look pretty damn menacing.

woo Constantine

Despite the critics initial reaction to it, I still think that this is a decent film. Unfortunately, it happened to come out when most people were just sick of Keanu, and Gavin Rossdale did nothing more than to just look good in a suit. But, aside from that it had a lot of great performances. This includes Keanu, who definitely performs best in his action roles. Also, I liked that much of the exposition was left out of the movie as it created a mysterious shim to a lot of the supporting characters and subplots. But without a doubt, Lucifer as depicted here is a classic.

it's a shame this list was limited to movies though

9/15/2014 7:58:53 AM

I aint that picky man, you could take it out to cartoons or tv series.

you should have, you know, posted the movie name for those of us who haven't seen all of them.

9/15/2014 8:24:38 AM

Yeah, I have no idea what #5 is

But the rest are Only God Forgives, South Park, Devils Advocate, and Constantine

9/15/2014 8:28:16 AM

#5 is O Brother, Where Art Thou?

9/15/2014 8:29:50 AM

Yup

9/15/2014 8:57:22 AM

This one comes to mind

9/15/2014 9:00:05 AM

No Dave Grohl in Pick of Destiny?

^^ I seriously considered it. At least if just for the drum solo.

^ She was more of just a typical seductress than she was actually playing a devil.

9/15/2014 10:13:35 AM

Wow, you just pissed away what little credibility you had with regard to movie devils.

9/15/2014 10:15:06 AM

feel free to provide your own list. That is what this thread is about. In case you did not read that part.

way too gimmicky for a top 5. I had one spot for a comedic Satan and that was given to South Park.

9/15/2014 4:33:34 PM

Viggo Mortensen was a really good Devil in The Prophesy.

9/15/2014 5:14:16 PM

how about Gabriel Byrne in End of Days

9/15/2014 5:16:10 PM

Arnold seemed more threatening than him

was gonna say De Niro in Angel Heart and speak of the devil, there he is

9/15/2014 8:12:25 PM

No on End of Days. He really only had one threatening scene and the rest was just standard cliché put a devil in a suit type role.
