As far as Harry Potter villains go, Bellatrix Lestrange is one of the most terrifying. Her love and admiration for Voldemort pushes her to places very few Harry Potter villains go to. It's not about power, overtaking Voldemort, it's about doing whatever she thinks will get his attention like a little girl with a big crush. Her actions are chaotic and psychotic, and the performance by Helena Bonham Carter puts Bellatrix Lestrange into a whole new category of Harry Potter villains.

One of the cinematography tricks to make Bella scary was that her torture of Hermione was off screen so left to the watchers' imagination. This, combined with the lack of time references in this sequence, makes this terrifying.

This depends entirely on the individual. If they have an active imagination then yes I'd agree 100%, the outcome could be a lot more horrifying left to the imagination. But there are also a lot of people who aren't able to do that the same way. Similar to there being people who, when reading books, don't 'see' the story unfold in their mind. It's just words on a page. So to those people, I imagine it being left off-screen is more just 'meh, it happened' and that's about it.

Personally, growing up the scariest Death Eater was Antonin Dolohov. He's a lot less present in the story, but he's depicted on his introduction as one of the most dangerous escapees from Azkaban along with Bellatrix. Also driven mad by the Dementors, yet not as unstable as she is. Dolohov's the one that used the dark curse which almost killed Hermione at the Ministry of Magic. He later tried to strangle Harry. He murdered Molly Weasley's two brothers, Gideon and Fabian Prewett. And of course, he murdered Remus Lupin. The fact it took Flitwick, one of the most magically skilled in the entire series to take him down, says a lot about how dangerous he was.

By far the worst villan of the series is Umbridge. She isn't a dark wizard. There is no zealotry or set of beliefs that make her evil. She is just a horrible sadistic beaurocrat. This also makes her the most believable villan because we have all encountered someone who is just an asshole all the time simply because they can be if they have a little bit of power. She's a representation of the modern fast food manager.

I hated Umbridge in my deepest core, I was afraid of Bellatrix. That's the difference. To an extent you could predict what Umbridge would do in most situations but Bellatrix had a constant air of a box of dynamite with a single lit fuse. Nobody ever knew when it would blow or even if it would blow at all but everyone had to act like it was going to explode in their face every single second they were in her presence. To me, that's terrifying. Imagine being in a room with someone you knew was entirely capable of killing you at any moment purely because she could

But isnt Snape aware that Dumbledore knows he will die anyway from the curse of Marvolos Ring and didnt Dumbledore instruct Snape to assist Draco, or at least watch over him, and if it came to Dumbledore being murdered, that Snape would do it for Draco? So then the Unbreakable Vow really doesnt mean anything to Snape, though obviously Bellatrix wouldnt have realized this.

Did you notice the small hidden hint in Deathly Hallows 2? The scene is right after Harry, Ron and Hermione go into Bellatrix's vault, steal one of the elements and escape with the dragon. It's a scene where voldemort is walking through a room, floors covered in blood. He is wallking barefoot with his snake next to him. In the corner behind him you can see Bellatrix sitting crouched up, with her arm over her head. She got tortured by Voldemort because she lost the Gryiffindor sword. It's the only time she ever showed weakness and emotion.

I thought it was a nice bit of characterization for the end of the series. Mrs. Weasley has always been shown as a mother, as a wife, as a home-maker and care giver. There are plenty of hints that she has a fiery temperament, she is main source of discipline... It was still kind of shocking when she barrels in, casts off her cloak, and duels one-on-one this towering personality that was Bellatrix. Molly fights her to a standstill, a near match for her is dueling skill, until Bellatrix makes a mistake. It fit the themes well, and was kind of a bad-ass moment for Molly Weasley... who was otherwise a fairly overlooked supporting character. Plus, honestly I think it would have cheapened Harry's story to give him another win. Rowling did a pretty good job establishing that Harry isn't a world-class duelist. He never comes close to matching Snape. Harry's main quality is not his skill, it's his courage to walk into situations where he is overmatched. When he wins against someone important, it isn't based on skill, usually it's because his enemies don't take him seriously. He's more than capable of besting the low-end thuggish minions, but there isn't any reason to think he was a match for Bellatrix one on one. (at least in my opinion)

I thought Umbridge was one of the best villains. Villains like Voldemort and Lestrange are sort of "cool, iconic" villains but Umbridge is a repulsive character who injects hatred into the audience by simply being on the screen. She has complete power whenever she does anything and she isn't fazed by people trying to go against her. This triggers our own insecurities as we have all experienced a time when we felt ignored or disrespected, and she completely puts that in the main character's faces

I'm afraid I have to disagree here. I've loved Bonham-Carter in other things (she was great in the King's speech for example, or in Alice in wonderland), but here she just portrayed Bellatrix as a simplistic, immature psychopath, with no sense of menace or self control at all. book Bellatrix also wants to torture Nevil, but only as a subbordinate goal to get harry to hand over the prophecy, since while she definitely enjoy's torture, her mission for Voldemort always comes first, indeed the times book bellatrix does! lose it count more, because she is usually so much more the cold psycho, not this overgrown malicious child. So sorry, have to disaagree with this one here.

Intelligent maniacs/psychos/sociapaths are always the most terrifying and scariest because you never know what they will do and how they will react but they know quite well what they are doing. Impredictable but calculated.

I like Voldemort, he’s my favorite villain and favorite character. I can see why someone would say Bellatrix is scarier, even though I think Voldemort is worse. Bellatrix displays her cruelty freely. Whereas Voldemort is more controlled and calculating in his cruelty, but he’ll be just as bad if not worse.

Now this is a grand villain. It’s Helena Bonham Carter in excelsius. All the kookiness and borderline psychosis she’s played at for years amped up and made whole. I’m not waxing pretentious. She pulls it off by being integrated with the the story line instead of seeming like she’s in another film entirely. And am I nuts or is she scorchingly sexy in this role?

I did not care much about Bellatrix in the books. She fell into Death Eaters clan that I honestly did not care to remember names because they are all the same bad guys killing and killing. But Helena Bonham Carter made it impossible to overlook Bellatrix. The villain she built was more outstanding than Voldemort himself.
