you can have complex villains WITHOUT resorting to horrible and dangerous cliches such as "redemption no matter what" or "surprise evil" - there are truly vile characters who can be complex.. Frollo is such an example.

Frollo showed viewers that evil people exist and they have reasons for why they are that way but it doesn't excuse the actions they commit.. that is the complex villains we need more of.
