Is Nick Van Owen a villain? What are your thoughts To me, the humans in The Lost World don't really have a villain cause they all had perfectly justified reasons for their actions. Ludlow wanted to help InGen after the JP incident bankrupted them. Tembo had run out of big game in the modern world and the best prize now would be a T. rex head. And Owen wanted the dinosaurs to be safe. The real antagonists of the film is the tyrannosaur family and the raptors.
