Mine would be:

Peter Cushing as Doctor Van Helsing

Charlton Heston as Taylor from 'The Planet of the Apes'.

While not an outright horror film, leaning on the side of the human condition, its exposition is rooted in the horrors of what knowledge is capable of and how it can be used to manipulate society through subtle means.
