Not really sure. All I know is, Carnage is stronger than both Venom and Spidey.
Oh ok, I found the background on Carnage.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Cletus Kasady was serving 11 consecutive life terms in prison, in which he was Eddie Brock's (AKA Venom) cellmate. When the alien symbiote came to break Eddie out of jail, it left behind "child" that bonded with Kasady creating Carnage. Kasady then broke out of jail in attempt to spread his message of chaos. His thought being, if you have the guts, you can do anything. Up to, and including murder.
Spider-Man eventually encountered him, but was unable to stop him. He then enlisted the help of Venom and the Fantastic Four and was able to capture him and imprison him in Ravencroft asylum.
Carnage has escaped several times in attempt to spread his message. Most notably, his symbiote blended with both Silver Surfer and Spider-Ben. He has always ended up thwarted by Spider-Man and returned to the asylum, though.
Recently, Carnage lost his symbiote when Venom re-absorbed it. But Mackie couldn't let a character actually change, that would be too much like long-term plot development, so he had him discover another one just the same, in the Negative Zone.</div>

He's actually my favorite villian. I really like his look, and I hope he appears in future Spiderman movies.
Edit- That's a hot picture
