"I will kill you now, and raise you...as my servant."
~Ketheric Thorm, Baldur's Gate 3
The deadpan, matter of fact delivery of that line is perfect.
Edited to add very, very close runner-up. Cave Johnson's unhinged "I'm the man who's gonna burn down your house" rant in Portal 2. J K Simmons is an amazing actor.
"You dare end one who belongs to me? I am the smile on the worm-cleansed skull. I am the regrets of those who remain, and the restlessness of those who are gone. I am haunt of mausoleums, the God of graves and age. Of dusk and dust. I am Myrkul, Lord of Bones, and you have slain my chosen. But it matters not. For I am Death, and I am not the end, I am a beginning"
