* In ''Theatre/CrossRoad'', the devil Amduscias wears black, with red in the lining of his cape. Played with, as it's unclear how evil he really is.

Darth Maul has naturally red skin, not red tattoos


** Darth Maul (pictured above), who made full-body, red-and-black Sith tattoos popular. You'll find them on lots of Expanded Universe characters (plus the original Sith species, which has naturally red skin).

It's more averted with Guren, since Kallen is one of the more heroic characters in the show.


* Downplayed with the Guren from ''Anime/CodeGeass'': red, orange and black... and part of a WellIntentionedExtremist faction.



* ''Franchise/KamenRider'' generally averts this trope as red and black Kamen Riders are usually TheHero who is usually a NiceGuy. Below are examples playing this trope straight:
** The Kamen Rider Dark Kiva suit from ''Series/KamenRiderKiva'' is a black and red version of {{The Hero}}'s SuperMode. This suit is generally used by [[BigBad King]] of the [[EliteFour Checkmate Four]]
** Both Demushu and Lord [[spoiler:Baron]] from ''Series/KamenRiderGaim'' sport this color scheme. The first is a BloodKnight, while the latter is the OneWingedAngel form of [[spoiler:Kaito]] who JumpedOffTheSlipperySlope.

** ''Series/KamenRiderDouble'': The Terror Dopant's body is mostly black, but he also has on what appear to be red ''trousers''.
** ''Series/KamenRiderFourze'': The primary colors of Sagittarius Nova, the OneWingedAngel form of the BigBad are red and black.

** ''Series/KamenRiderDrive'': Downplayed with [[EvilKnockoff Gold Drive]], whose primary color is, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin gold]]. But apart from that, his faceplate is all-black and his eyes are [[RedEyesTakeWarning blood red]]. Fittingly, he's also the most despicable villain in the show.
** ''Series/KamenRiderGhost'': [[KnightTemplar Adel]]'s Perfect Gammaizer form is primarily black with red highlights.
** ''Series/KamenRiderBuild'': The primary colors of the BigBad's [[OneWingedAngel ultimate form]] are maroon red and black, with bits of [[GreenAndMean turquoise]] thrown in for good measure.
** ''Series/KamenRiderZiO'': [[EvilOverlord Ohma Zi-O]]'s Rider form is [[DarkIsEvil black]] with a bright red visor, along with [[BlingOfWar gold]] highlights all throughout to emphasize his king theme.


Added DiffLines:

** The emblem of Machine Empire Black Magma in ''Series/TaiyouSentaiSunVulcan'' is a blood red symbol over a black background. Their {{mooks}} wear all-black bodysuits with red symbols emblazoned over their head and chests, and their leader is clad in all-black and has [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]].

Added DiffLines:

* In Ottawa Ballet's ''The Tin Soldier'', the antagonist Goblin wears a red-and-black jester suit, and fights the Soldier for the affections of the Ballerina, who can't stand him. This is downplayed in the subsequent TV adaptation, ''Series/TheToyCastle'', where the Goblin wears the same outfit, but TookALevelOfKindness and is now a more lighthearted trickster than an upfront villain.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'': [[Characters/AmphibiaTheCore The Core]] initial form is a pitch-black machine with over thirteen orange eyes, and when they become Darcy, they put her in an all-black outfit with a matching helmet. This becomes more played straight for the final battle, as the Core's orange eyes turn red in sheer rage at their foiled invasion, and there's their planetoid form being almost entirely red.

* ''ComicBook/{{Thunderbolts}}'': During the Red Hulk's incarnation of the Thunderbolts, the entire team wore red and black, including both ComicBook/ThePunisher and Agent ComicBook/{{Venom}}, who are noted for wearing black and white. When Deadpool calls Venom a suck-up for changing his colors with the rest of them, the former soldier strangles Deadpool, telling him that keeping the same color means there's less of a chance for FriendlyFire.

** [[DeadlyDoctor Knock Out]] from ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' is mostly red, with some black highlights. He's also vain and sadistic. [[BerserkButton Don't mess with his paint job.]] He stands out all the more because ''Transformers'' usually goes with RedIsHeroic instead.

*** Conehead seeker Thrust is usually red and black, though the cartoon downplays this by changing the black to a dark grey.

Added DiffLines:

** [[MoreDespicableMinion Scroop]] from ''WesternAnimation/TreasurePlanet'' is an evil, insectoid alien who is primarily colored red and black, and is by far the vilest character in the movie, making even [[BigBad John Silver]] look like a saint in comparison, especially considering the fact that Silver is [[HeelFaceTurn ultimately redeemed]] by the end of the movie once he finally realizes the errors of his ways, unlike Scroop.
