Supernaturally Yours

What’s better than a hot demon on television or in a movie? 10 delightfully naughty demons right here is Bat Country. Yep, that’s right. Just because I love you guys I scoured the nine circles of the pop culture to find you the hottest of the hot—Dante would be proud.

Demons have been around for as long as people have been afraid of the dark. In most cultures demons are considered unclean spirits that can take over your body and not in a good way. Many demons in literature are fallen angels (who doesn’t like a bad boy *waggles eyebrows*). Some demons are portrayed as scary and vile (possibly fair), but you won’t find them here.

Nope today is all about temptation. So here are my

TOP TEN DEBONAIR DEVILS

1.       The Collector- Tales From the Crypt: Demon Knight - Oh Billy Zane. No man has looked so appealing without hair since Yul Brenner. This demon is mean, evil (that’s a given, and a little funny. Temptation is definitely in his bag of tricks, but saying I love you is a little out of his league.

2.       Balthazar- Constantine  - Gavin Rossdale might be a rock star in real life, but in 2005 he was the demon Balthazar who goes up against Keanu Reeves in Constantine. He is British, he flips a coin on his fingers like Doc Holiday in Tombstone, and he looks really good in a suit. Not a bad catch if you can get past the killing good guys thing.


3.       Balthazar aka Cole Turner- Charmed.  Julian McMahon was the demon sent by the triad to kill the Charmed ones. Like all who came before him, he fails time and time again, but the Charmed ones don’t vanquish him instead Phoebe dates him and who could blame her. It isn’t all smooth sailing on his reform to good, but he tries really hard and looks good doing it.


4.       Lucifer- The Prophecy-   Viggo Mortensen plays one of my favorite devils in this. He is creepy, oddly attractive and the king of the underworld. When Gabriel get a little rebellious who better to stop him than the father of rebellion?


5.       Azrael- Dogma-  Jason Lee is a demon who is tired of being a demon in one of my favorite Kevin Smith films. He manipulates two of the possibly dumbest earth bound angels into nearly destroying the world. He is funny, fights dirty, and has cute little horns.


6.       Crowley- Supernatural-  On a show where there is this much hotness (Hello, Dean and Sam) it is easy to overlook the other cuties. Mark Sheppard plays Crowley, the former crossroads demon and current king of hell, who may manipulate and always work his own agenda, but he is mostly the lesser of many, many evils. He is snarky and sort of just awesome.


7.       Lucifer- Supernatural- Lucifer tortures Sam, and he tries to destroy the world. But Mark Pellegrino nails this role as the misanthropic former angel. When he tells his side of things, it makes you actually feel bad for him. Quite the feat considering he had been picking on the brother’s Winchester all season.


8.       ZanKou- Charmed- Oded Fehr played this reoccurring demon on charmed before he was in the Mummy or Resident Evil. He is a very powerful demon who sets his sights on the charmed one, but they manage not to date this hottie. Too bad.


9.       Brendan Rowe- Charmed- Michael Weatherly wasn’t always Tony DiNozzo. He was also one of three demon brothers who were destined to be the evil equivalent of the charmed ones only Brendan is a hold out. This demon has extra depth in that he is renouncing his evil side and taking order as a priest. I like to root for the underdog.


10.   John Milton- The Devil’s Advocate.  Al Pacino. Really do I need to say anything else? A-mazing. And with a name like John Milton and a personality as big as his how could you not love him just a little.

Supernaturally Yours,

P.S.  Michael Fassbender who played the fallen angel Azarael in Hex completely deserved to be on this post and possibly number one. Thank you, Lena, for reminding me.

*Sighs* I forgot about Oded Fehr as ZanKou...

Great job, Liz!

Lena Corazon said...

Oh gosh, I LOVED Balthazar in Charmed. What wonderful memories that brings back. ;)

I have to say, Michael Fassbender might be my #1 demon ever. He played Azarael in the British show Hex a while back, and ohhhh boy, he is a hot bad boy. Def my type. :D

Oh my gosh Lena, I completely agree. I thought Michael Fassbender was going to be on the angel post so I left him off. He is my type too!
