diabolico

with accent on the first o.

Diabolico is excessively bad, as is evil.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Сергей Лузан : One of diab'olico options might be evil, but not necessarily vice versa (a la inversa).
4 hrs
depends on the degree of evilness, as we have no further context it is an option. Thank you for your comment

mal

If it's considered a noun and not an adjective: Él es el mal (I'm sorry but I would need a context).

Hope it helps!
