Line 71:
* ''Omaha''. Throughout most of the film, there's conversations going on between the driver and front-seat passenger in two different cars, which are involved in a freeway chase. One of the cars is a station wagon, and the occupants of that car speak in Spanish, subtitled by a third person - a young man dressed in the Seattle grunge style - sitting in the rear-facing back seat, holding up cue cards against the back window. {{spoiler|In the end, however, it turns out that the subtitle guy is actually a character: during the climactic fight scene (at Carhenge) he steals the [[MacGuffin]] from the Spanish-speakers, and after he's noticed by the English-speakers, holds up one final card on his own behalf before making his getaway.}}
* [[Villain Protagonist]] Damien from ''[[The Omen]]'' doesn't get all-too much dialogue in the movie. Doesn't need it to be creepy or menacing.
* From ''[[James Bond (film)|James Bond]]'' flicks:
** In ''[[Goldfinger]]'', the eponymous villain's hulking Korean bodyguard, Oddjob. He couldn't speak English, so he never spoke, but that was a big reason why he was so terrifying.
** Jaws, from ''[[The Spy Who Loved Me]]'' and ''[[Moonraker (film)|Moonraker]]''; he said a grand total of four words in both films, saying "Well, here's to us" when making a toast to his girlfriend at the end of the second. Possibly, the reason he doesn't speak is because his metal, cybernetic teeth make talking difficult, but that is just a theory. Much like Oddjob, his silence is a big reason he's so intimidating.
