It is rare for a hunk to be an outright villain. However, a nasty hunk is often used to deliver the [[Moral of the Story]]. In this case, the (usually young, often teenage) heroine will imagine him to be a perfect [[Knight in Shining Armour]] type, but he's actually a [[Prince Charmless]], [[Jerkass]] or vain prick, thus proving that one should not judge another based on appearances.
