Just like King Kong.

Hmmm?
Following their instincts can be said about most known villains in movie history. Leatherface, Michael Myers, the Alien, the Jaws shark, et al...everyone followed their instincts.

I agree that deliberate villains are many in number, but instinctive villains are also plenty.

Godzilla stakes a pretty strong claim in that department. Especially in the first 2-3 films it was portrayed in.

Don't forget, Pinhead is some sort of a hero in the first Hellraiser film. That doesn't reduce his villainy in the Hellraiser series.
