Yeah, I've known people like that. Psychopaths who get off on cuttin' people up, who like startin' fires, sure. I won't argue that they're evil, and that the world's not a better place when folks like that get dumped in a ditch outside of town.
But let me tell you, the most evil bastard I ever met wasn't gettin' off on causing suffering. You have to care about the people you're killing in order to care about their pain, and he was above that. Real evil, you can't bargain with, because you've got nothin' they want. You're just in their way.
