This thread is dedicated to villains who provide the brawn where higher level villains are responsible for the brain.

My vote goes to pro wrestler and Olympic athlete Harold "oddjob" Sakata.

He does a great job of looking like a mean hard man.



Not even in Bond movies

 
Half listed aren't really Henchmen, imo.........2nd in command is not a henchman.

Kobayashi? Vader? Walken in True Romance? Bodiker?

Agreed. A henchmen is basically the muscle. Ideally, they don't even speak (increasing both their badassary and their comical factor).

Bodiker was a bit of a henchman, though, because he carried out the murders personally. He was a henchman in relation to the guy who employed him, although in his own world (which he sought to rise above) he was a kingpin himself. A truly complex man.
 
Lewis showing you love, @Bald1.
Thanks for the heads up.

Fezzik was a true gentle giant with the heart of a poet, and the aim of a MLB pitcher. How many other henchmen in this thread could haul three people ( plus himself ) up the cliffs of insanity yet also wax poetically about peanuts and charm. None, I tell ya! They're all a bunch of cans compared to the great one. Doubt they could pull off wearing a holocaust cloack either.
 

This is the right answer. As ominous as Vader's presence was in the original trilogy, he was still just the Sith Apprentice and Darth Sidious' slave, or galactic henchman.
 
I was always amazed that Bob the Joker's Goon had his own toy:
