they raped, mutilated and ate Yates and his crew - I'm not arguing Yates didn't deserve it.. the fact still stands they are a society of cannibals, by default that makes them villainous and the "evil versus evil" trope comes into play as they exact revenge via massacring Yates, an "eye for an eye" doesn't make it right.. they were defending themselves but also exacting revenge.. the act of hunting someone down, raping, mutilating and then eating them is villainous (even if it is a monster like Yates).

Let's not forget they were known as headhunters long before Yate came along, thus they killed many others that weren't as sadistic as Yates.. they had honor but were still incredibly dangerous.
