Get the badass mug.
A character capable of rendering bad movies watchable and good movies unforgettable. Intelligent, aggressive, single-minded, static, often evil.
Examples: Ash in the Evil Dead movies; Bill Foster in Falling Down; Tyler Durden in Fight Club; Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in Full Metal Jacket.

Badass is defined in one word: Caravaggio.
Son of a bitch was the most bitchin' painter around 1600, and he brawled his way around Italy. He was so badass, the Pope fucking pardoned him for killing some dude in a bar, just so he could come back to Rome (he had been on the run) and paint for some Renaissance-era mercenaries who happened to just love epic art. Damn, son. Damn.
Art student: Professor, who was the guy who painted multiple grotesque beheadings SO BEAUTIFULLY?

Art professor: You must be referring to Caravaggio. *does not try to hide gleam of admiration in eyes* Damn, he was a badass.
