The Film: As a big-budget blockbuster released in 1997, poor Con Air was always doomed to trail in Titanic's wake.

An impressive cast list and some Jerry Bruckheimer production magic meant it didn't completely nose-dive.

Plus, it had LeAnn Rimes' "How Do I Live" to keep it buoyant. Nice.

The Role: Malkovich plays Cyrus "The Virus" Grissom, who leads the prisoners to an uprising whilst in transit on the plane.

The Creepy: He's a murderer, and he's a crafty bugger. A real creep.
