Movie villains, whether they be undead, science monsters, or just plain bad guys... they have certain skill sets. Due to their special skills, certain sports and games could very well be right up their alley.

#11. Frankenstein on ice.
No, I'm not suggesting the famous monster would be great at ice skating. I think he would be awesome at hockey. Sure, he is slow, but he could sure take a beating. "Coach, Frankie hit the wall, and his arm fell off". The coach would say Well, sow it back on and get him back out there"!
If he played goalie, you could add extensions to his arms, and he could easily grab and block the pucks.

#10. Under bowling.
Tommy Lee Jones character in Under Siege in real life seems like one of those folks who talks a big game. But he can also back it up. When you ask him to pick a competition for the two of you, his only response is bowling. First, he's pissed at his shoes being smelly. Then he tells whoever's in his favorite lane to get the hell out of here. Imagine that guy coming up to you with that energy and saying that.

#9. Wolfmans Got Skills.
The Wolfman would be an NBA star. Have you seen the film Teen Wolf? Well, that should be evidence enough.

#8. Dracula on the boards.
The count would be a chess wiz if he were to try. His patience would rival even the longest of move contemplations. Also, there is a certain stalking aspect to the game. Who better than a vampire to stalk and prey than Dracula? He's also mild-mannered, so he wouldn't raise any suspicions.
#7. Jason on the greens.
Jason Voorhees is someone who has great hand-eye coordination. He can swing any object and hit his victims with precision. One hit, and it seems to hit the perfect spot to kill instantly. I imagine he could also take a golf iron and drive the golf ball wherever he wanted. In the Friday movies, he showed he could sustain himself under water for great lengths of time. If he happens to hit the ball in the water, it would be no problem for him to go get it.
#6. Clay pool.
Hanz Gruber comes into a pool hall. Acting and carrying on like John Clay. He quietly and unassumingly works his way into a pool game. You think this guy should be an easy mark to take a few bucks off of. So you go and offer him a game for twenty bucks. It's great until he breaks the balls and becomes Hanz himself. Just like the 180-degree turn he does in Die Hard.
#5. Lex the plex.
Lex Luther is one of the financially minded villains. Who uses ruthless business tactics along with breaking whatever law he feels he has to. Imagine someone like Lex Luthor sitting across from you in a game of monopoly. A person wouldn't stand a chance.
#4. Gills and gloves.
The Creature from the Black Lagoon has these webbed hands. That are also cup-shaped in form. So he would be a natural as an outfielder in baseball. He should also be able to throw far and fast. As he spends most of his life treading water, he has to have some good muscle mass and endurance. Due to his diving experience, he would be great at those last-second dives towards home plate.
#3. Leather-faced jewelry.
That chainsaw swinging leather face for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre showed in that film that he has an artistic side. But a certain artistic tilt to his murders. So, he would do excellently at arts and crafts competitions. He would just have to learn how to use beads and string instead of human bones.
#2. Top Dollar English.
Top Dollar from 1994's The Crow showed off some of his sword skills in the final fight. But his overall demeanor is one of class and tactfulness. I believe he would be great at sword play, polo, darts, and javelin sports. Basically, any of the old English competitions.
#1. Aliens on the 50 yard line.
Those 7-foot-tall acid-for-blood creatures would be an unbeatable football team. First off, they have shown they can be on all fours and blast off with strength and speed. As an offensive or defensive lineman, that skill is invaluable. They also self-sacrificed to protect the queen. So, it stands to reason that with this skill... their team's quarterback would have plenty of time to make the plays he sees fit.
