The classic "Disney" villains are still the triumph of some of our favorite stories of all time. Why do we watch fantasy films? Because we want to witness the hero succeed? Because we want to see what happens to the love interest? Maybe, but sometimes people of any age crave a good "Disney" marathon just to enjoy watching our favorite evil villains take the scream, I mean screen. Let's take a look at which classic villain is purely rotten to the core.
1. The Evil Queen
This wretched witch earns the top spot for being the evilest Disney villain of them all. I mean come on, poisoning an apple and giving it to your step-daughter just to claim the title of "fairest in the land"? It's not like they are giving out "Academy Awards" for being the fairest, lady, so chill. Not to mention she sent the Huntsman in the first place to bring back Snow White's heart. That's just gross!
2. Maleficent
Ah, yes. The lime green, evil machine. Maleficent is probably the most vulgar villain of them all. In front of the whole kingdom, she decides to proclaim that on Princess Aurora's 16th birthday, "she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel, and die." Wonderful, best birthday present Aurora ever received I bet. Also, she can turn into a dragon, and she will steal the hot prince and lock him up.
3. Scar
My personal favorite. The classic sketchy uncle who would do anything for the throne, so he murders Mufasa (his own brother), and blames it on his brother's son! Simba (the son) then runs away in fear of what will happen to him after Scar manipulates him into thinking Mufasa's death is his fault. Then he sends his hyena friends to kill Simba. This is just too much killing for one day.
4. Cruella de Vil
If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will. Guilty of stealing puppies, and wanting to kill them for their own fur. She even drove directly towards Dalmatian pups one time with the intent to hit and kill them. Worth mentioning: her driver's license is also expired. Furry friends over fashion, Cruella!
5. Ursula
Warning: will steal your best talent in order to gain power for herself. Also, she's obsessed with tridents, has too many legs, and will shrink you into a poor, unfortunate soul. Watch out for her moray eel minions, too.
6. Gaston
No one fights like Gaston, douses lights like Gaston. This guy almost forces Belle to marry him and then attempts to stab the true love of Belle's life, Beast. He judges books by their covers, has a raging temper, and is oh-so into his looks.
Honorable Mention: Hades, because he is both hilarious and evil.
Now you know who to watch out for. Until next time, play nice my villain-lovers!
