A mediocre villain is Killer in Dirty Harry imo. The writing is good enough but I don't find Andrew Robbinson's performance very effective. Luckily Clint Eastwood is there to pick up the slack. Scorpio is a different kind of villain--he is meant to be taken seriously unlike Gruber or Stannix or even Leary in some moments. Lithgow doesn't have the entire movie to himself as a villain either--there's the treasure agent and the others. In Die Hard, Gruber's men are much more of a blank than the ones in Cliffhanger.I agree that Scorpio is a different kind of villain but I still dislike his performance and the writing isn't all that interesting either, especially knowing he is inpired by the Zodiac killer. I also agree that Cliffhanger has better side villains than Die Hard.
