Richard Widmark's film debut as maniacal bad guy Tommy Udo in Kiss of Death (1947). Widmark went on to have a long and distinguished career as a leading man in mostly good-guy roles.

My favorite movie bad guy turned into a good guy has to be John Lithgow. He went from being an over-the-top bad guy in films like Cliffhanger in the early 90s to his hilarious role on TV's "3rd Rock from the Sun".

He wasn't in a lot of scenes but Robert Picardo sure made a creepy debut in Howling

Actually i think it was Platoon that made Dafoe a star(well he has never really been a star,but that movie made him well known anyway)

Deforest Kelly before Star Trek used to play the heavy in a lot of westerns until his big break. Look up Deforest Kelly on the IMDb on a 'people' search you'll see the westerns he acted in.
