I think Ernesto is far worse than Muntz. At least with Muntz, you have a slight bit of sympathy for him since initially he was a good man and just wanted his name back after he was wronged, but searching for 69 years eventually drove him insane and he became evil then, making him a tragic villain.

Ernesto on the other hand was a selfish monster from the very start. He never had any selflessness in him and only cared for himself. When Hector tries to return to his family, Ernesto murders him in cold blood without hesitation. As well as the fact that he attempted to murder Miguel twice, the first time while they still thought that they were related. This means that on top of willing to betray and kill his best friend and a pre pubescent child, he is willing to do this to his OWN family.

At the end of the day, Muntz was initially an innocent man who was driven insane and became an evil psychopath. Ernesto on the other hand was a self preserving monster from the very beginning.
