Evil Versus Evil: Difference between revisions

== Live-Action TV ==

* ''[[24|Twenty Four]]'' does this A LOT; probably because most evil plots involve groups of bad guys working together (a bit of [[Truth in Television]]). But of course, since they're bad guys, they'll turn on each other in a heartbeat.

* ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'' and ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]'' has this thing going on. We have the Goa'uld fighting each other over territory and other things, we have the Replicators (not evil per se, but a threat to all life) fighting everyone, including the Goa'uld. In Atlantis we have the Asurans, who battled the Wraith, erasing human life to deplete the Wraith's "food sources". {{spoiler|In the end the Asurans proved to by far the greater threat, leading to an [[Enemy Mine|alliance]] between the humans and a Wraith faction to eliminate them.}}

** The Wraith are no more friendly amongst themselves than the Goa'uld, that alliance contains ''nine'' factions, not the three you'd assume at first glance.

* The ''[[Masters of Horror]]'' episode "Pick Me Up" has Wheeler, a serial killer truck driver, V.S. Walker, a serial killer hitchhiker. The eventual winner? {{spoiler|The serial killing ambulance driver duo who pick them up at episode end.}}

* Invoked at least once a season on ''[[Deadliest Warrior]]'': [[The Mafia]] vs. the [[Yakuza]] {{spoiler|the Mafia won}}; the [[The Troubles|Irish Republican Army]] vs. the [[The War on Terror|Taliban]] {{spoiler|the IRA won}}; the [[The Vietnam War|Viet Cong]] vs. the [[World War II|Waffen SS]] {{spoiler|the SS won}}; the [[The Cartel|Medellin Cartel]] vs. [[Ruthless Modern Pirates|Somali pirates]] {{spoiler|Somalis won}}; [[Saddam Hussein]] vs. [[Pol Pot]] {{spoiler|Hussein won}}; and [[Sociopathic Soldier|Hernan Cortez]] vs. [[Ax Crazy|Ivan the Terrible]] {{spoiler|Cortez won}}.
