Now this could take some time...
All in all, I like all the villains for different reasons. On the poll I chose Scissorwoman because I like her more than Scissorman, and the Scissor Twins were my favourites overall. In all honesty, it was an image of the Scissor Twins that caused me to get the game to begin with, and although they weren't frightening in the traditional sense (for instance, their looks) they were frightening in their personalities. Their voices, their actions, were all truly insane... they loved what they did, were truly sadistic, and they were the second villains (counting them as one enemy) in the game who literally stalked my every footstep. BUT... I loved nearly all the villains in the game.
Now, the merits of the very first villain, Sledgehammer. I spent that entire first level in a panic (me, not Alyssa), and for that, I gotta love the guy. Few video game characters affect me as strongly as that... plus the idea of being beaten to death with a giant hammer is more disturbing to me than the idea of being corroded by acid, or snipped up with scissors. No clue why.
My next frightening runner-up was Corroder. This guy... was just mental. Well, they were all mental and cruel, but he seemed to tie with the Scissors for sadism. His looks were more frightening than the others (sure, Sledgehammer had a giant hammer, and he was strong, but he was slow, and had less of a range than the Corroder. Plus... that scene with that poor blind woman and her son... was really horrific. He scared me immensely in that level. But he gets third place simply because Sledgehammer got me in that state first.
Chopper just annoyed me. He was literally behind me every step I took. Every time I opened a door, he was there. And that first boss fight where I couldn't kill him was the only reason I didn't like him as much as the others. XD His second boss fight was really hard.
Still can't beat Burroughs, so I'm not gonna judge him yet.
