Something Wicked This Way Comes!

Every good fairy tale needs an equally evil villain to make the story great! I love that Disney comes up with a great villain but also gives them a sense of humor so that you are not going to have nightmares after watching the movie. Good will always prevail in a Disney movie. I am so bummed that I could not make it to Disney World for Friday the 13th when they released the villains. I LOVE Disney Villains. Enjoy this list of the most evil Villains Disney has given us!

13. Gaston - He makes the bottom of the list because he is not necessarily completely evil, but he is narcissistic. He is completely in love with himself and can't see why the most beautiful girl in town doesn't love him. He does go a step too far and tries to lock her father away in the loony bin and then goes after her friend the Beast. Now, can you blame him for trying to kill the Beast? He doesn't know that it is really just a cursed prince. Gaston also has a pretty sweet song about himself and a great manly singing voice.

12. Yzma - If you have not seen The Emperors New Groove you are missing out on a very funny and creative movie! Yzma is pretty evil. She wants to rule the kingdom but this dumb emperor, Kuzco, is running the show. He is a self absorbed royal who has Yzma as his confidant. Kuzco calls her "hideous beyond all reason". She also has the best sidekick named Kronk. He is just a large brainless guy who loves to cook and talk to squirrels. She is evil because she wants to kill Kuzco but ultimately fails and turns him into a llama on accident.

11. Jafar - Hypnotizes the Sultan, tries to marry the princess to become the Sultan, tries to kill Aladdin, and wishes to be an all-powerful Genie... that is pretty evil. He also turns into a disgusting snake. Pretty creepy if you ask me. His sidekick, Iago, is pretty funny though... I think that his rat tail beard also makes him look evil. He has a pretty sweet hat though and some pointy shoulders. I just love how Disney "dresses" their characters; it just adds so much to their personalities.

10. Captain Hook - I know that my dad would say that Captain Hook should be number one, but he is not the MOST evil character. I do LOVE Hook, but he is just a misunderstood pirate. He is trying to kill Peter Pan, but do you blame him? I mean, he cut off his hand and fed it to a crocodile? I'd be pretty mad as well. Now, Captain Hook does do some pretty shady things to get to Peter so he is definitely evil.



9. Ursula - She just creeps me out. A large octopus who turns mermaids into seaweed if they don't pay her back? GROSS! And, she eats worms... She is also pretty funny! I love her song, Poor Unfortunate Souls! It is so creative and tells just how evil she is. If you don't appreciate Ursula you should watch The Little Mermaid again!


8. Mother Gothel is the newest Villain Disney has given us. She steals a baby just so that she can look young forever. Who does that? Vanity is just so horrible! At least she does provide food, shelter, books, and paint to Rapunzel, otherwise she would be further up on the list. The one thing that puts her ahead of the other villains is that she tries to kill Flynn Rider. Don't mess with my Flynn Rider!


7. Jean Claude Frollo - Just mean! He takes on the disabled and tries to kill them because they are a "demon and should be sent back to hell." Thank goodness the priest comes and says "You can't run from the eyes. The eyes of Notre Dame." He also lusts after the gypsy Esmerelda and sings this creepy song called "Hellfire". I still can't believe that Disney put the word Hell into their movie. Frollo also wants to burn down Paris to get what he wants. PURE EVIL!



6. Hades - "He ran the underworld. He was as mean as he was ruthless. And that's the Gospel truth. He had a plan to shake things up. And that's the Gospel truth." Hades is in charge of the dead and just lets the souls swim around in circles for eternity. He wants to rule the world but then Hercules comes around and is the only one who can ruin Hades' dreams. I'm so glad Disney made this character funny! There are so many small jokes in this movie. Watch it again as an adult and you will catch so many more than when it came out in the 90s.

5. Lady Tremain - Better known as the Evil Stepmother from Cinderella. She gave all step parents a bad rap. Little girls were afraid of getting a stepmother in fear she would turn her into Cinderella. How horrible! Also, the stepsisters are pretty bad as well. If you are a stepmother please don't treat your new kids any differently! If only Lady Tremain embraced Cinderella she could have ended up living in the castle and being royalty. The characters in the park are pretty funny! One of the best character experiences to date.

4. Evil Queen/Old Hag - Talk about evil stepmother! "Mirror Mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?" Whoa! Crazy lady talking! To be the most beautiful you must be beautiful on the inside as well as the outside. This lady is just plain CRAZY! Then, you send the huntsman out to kill Snow White and to bring you her heart?? OMG! Then, when you find out she is still alive you transform into an ugly hag and try to poison her with an apple. At least it teaches children not to take things from strangers.

3. Scar - Killing your own sibling is pretty sick; but then blaming it on your nephew, holy cow! He also has a pretty sweet song - "Be Prepared." Not much else to say about this evil character.

2. Cruella DeVille - Puppy Killer (nothing else needed)

1. Maleficent - Puts a curse on a baby that on her 16th birthday she will prick her finger and die! Then, she plots for 16 years how to find this child. When Prince Philip comes to rescue her she turns into a dragon and tries to kill him. She is the "mistress of all evil!"
