The Mole Men (Superman and the Mole Men)

It seems a little bit harsh to use characters from a movie that was made so long ago, as special effects were nothing like what they are today, but the Mole Men from 1951’s Superman and the Mole Men were just too ridiculous looking to not include on this list.

Played by actors with dwarfism, the Mole Men all wore what seemed to be half of an inside out soccer ball on their heads! As a result, they basically ended up looking like bald Oompa-Loompas!

While they weren’t inherently evil, they did end up as the antagonists of the movie, prompting George Reeves’ Superman to save the day – the problem is, they just didn’t look intimidating at all. Totally ridiculous!

And now we move on to the most ridiculous looking villain in comic book movie history.

Galactus (Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer)

Galactus; in the comic books, he’s a gigantic humanoid with more powers than you could possibly explain in a single list entry. Planet-eater. A universal and cosmic threat. While he might be difficult to perfectly adapt in a live action movie, you’d think that a movie studio would at least either give it a proper go or use an entirely different character instead.

Not Fox. In 2007’s Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, they decided to interpret Galactus as a giant cloud. Granted, he was still presented as a global threat, but look at him! He’s a CLOUD!

It’s safe to say there’s never been a “villain” quite as aesthetically ridiculous as this version of Galactus. Let me reiterate that he was a CLOUD. How completely non-menacing!

And that’s that, folks! Hope you enjoyed this list!
