Disney Villains: Evil to Most Evil 👿

they say that Disney is the happiest place on earth where dreams come true dog share plates of spaghetti and princesses break out into songs with lyrics that conveniently summarize their internal struggles what a magical world but for every hero who goes the distance there's an over-the-top villain looking to take them down today we're putting the very long list of Disney villains in a free-for-all showdown to determine who is the most evil and believe me when I say this it was no easy task Disney villains are pretty screwed up twisted and sadistic jerks I'm Kyle with wicked binge and this is Disney Villains evil 2 most evil starting with the least evil we have Sid how could such an iconic villain be ranked this low well as we broke down in our Toy Story get the evil episode personally I don't think that he's evil you have to look at it contextually since a bully to his sister sure and he has anger problems but from his perspective those toys that he's torturing are inanimate objects he's not the sadist that the toys view him as he's just pretending to be violent which is pretty common for little boys plus he gets his comeuppance when woody scares the living daylights out of him and presumably he never goes back to his quote unquote evil ways the soap today nice assuming this is him we eventually see him again in Toy Story 3 as a garbage man not doing anything nefarious at all looks like he learned his lesson for our second pick who barely even qualifies as evil we have Pete Pete is the oldest villain on this list and his legacy has since been softened and his black and white days he often appeared as a foil to Mickey bossing them around or getting in the way of Mickey's antics by World War two his sour demeanor was rehabilitated and he was often cast as a drill instructor though in a Mickey comic he was seen as a spy for Germany in the decades since he has been portrayed more as gruff or a jokester than a true villain even in Kingdom Hearts for example his turn as Maleficent's Lackey was far more napped than malicious he's also appeared in a theatrical short called get a horse where he did kidnap Minnie only to be rescued by Mickey back in 2013 but aside from that he's kept his evilness to high jinks at worst pretty low threat a step up from Pete is madam in the twisted witch from the sword in the stone she captures Arthur and challenges Merlin to a duel for the boy's life why well she's crazy and hates Merlin's brand of magic anyway the rules are simple no turning invisible no imaginary monsters like pink dragons immediately she turns invisible and follows it up with the best Disney loophole of a purple dragon Merlin god bless finally best sir by becoming a bacterium and infecting men not cheating but thoroughly outfoxing his zany rival now we get to a fellow who is certainly a bit more devious Edgar Edgar is the butler in the Aristocats he begins the movie as a kind-hearted loyal servant he takes care of madam Adelaide and her four cats until he listens in on Madame's new will where she leaves everything to her kittens this does not fly for Edgar his sense of entitlement kicks in and he decides to drug the cats with creme de la creme de la Edgar oh and abandons the cats in the countryside when they finally return to the house he locks the kittens up and tries to ship them all the way to Timbuktu all the way to Timbuktu in classic Disney fashion he's the one who ends up locked in a trunk victim of his own evil plan clocking above Edgar weir at Clayton Clayton hunter and turncoat in Tarzan immediately presents himself as a bigger threat than our previous felons he's burly he's nefarious he kidnaps an entire collection of gorillas and in prisons Jane and her father Clayton betrayed us but if we remove ourselves from the point of view of Tarzan a man who was raised by Apes Clayton is just a jerk who decides to round up some animals for a buck pretty typical of his day and age it's really only through showing the movie through Tarzan's eyes that were more easily able to empathize with him Clayton's step above Edgar was his imprisonment of humans as well and the fact that he tried to kill Tarzan again in his view an ape-man evil for sure but low man on the totem pole when juxtaposed with a lot of the other characters on this list our next toy story villain we have stinky Pete he may reveal himself to be aggressive and a bit crazy at the end of Toy Story 2 but like many characters in the Toy Story world he too is dealing with his own existential crisis it's a dangerous world he was deprived of love and was desperate to finally be appreciated when put on display yeah he's violence and ultimately kidnapped woody but he's a sympathetic character to say the least the next evilest on our list is the Queen of Hearts - mainly to her insanity and depravity she'll chop someone's head off for white roses she loves to lose her temper and constantly threatens her subjects saying that she'll kill them even if they make the smallest mistake well she's sadistic she isn't a strategic thinker everything with the Queen is moment to moment one moment she's playing croquet with you but next you're about to die she knows this about herself and seems to use her instability as a weapon of fear to keep her subjects in line confronted with a mile high Alyce though her resolve disappears and reveals her for what she is a coward propped up by an army of carts moving on down the evil ladder we get to the duke of weaseltown the duke starts out as a harmless old man don't they all being a bit of a goofball on the dance floor he's motivated by creating a trade pact with arendelle and we eventually discover he won't let something as trivial as human life get in his way you ought to put an end to this winter he suggests treasonous acts and eventually goes along with Hans plan to kill Elsa he allows himself to be manipulated in order to get what he wants he's not a fool he's just too greedy to allow himself to objectively view the situation after the Duke our next evilest character is Prince John Prince John is the Pretender to the English crown while King Richard is off fighting the Crusades he and his lackeys sir hiss and the Sheriff of Nottingham make it their life's business to drain the public's money for himself he's the evil taxman even directing a sheriff to steal from the poor box at the church he has no leniency for dissent jails and tries to execute any man who dares stand up to him deep down though he's a Cowardly Lion he uses his power to mask his insecurities and when stripped of his office shows the world just how truly weak he is no one fights like Gaston and a wrestling match no one bites like Gaston and no villain list is complete without Gaston Gaston is a total creep he demonizes intelligence specifically female intelligence relentlessly pursues Belle even though she is completely uninterested and gets Belle's father committed to an asylum don't worry Budweiser will take good care and to top it off he Stokes the fear of the citizens to go and murder a reclusive beast who at that point was basically just minding his own business he's a narcissist who can't imagine his opinions or views not being the gospel of truth he uses his popularity and good standing as a way to manipulate others into helping him achieve his goals furthermore he's so self-centered that he can't see himself as anything other than the victor so he underestimates his opponents his arrogance and narcissism eventually cost him his life but not to play devil's advocate Gaston although a narcissist does showcase a good deal of bravery and let's not forget that the beast wasn't much of a saint himself I mean he kidnapped Belle until she had Stockholm Syndrome continuing our line of evil nobility we get to Lady Tremaine the wicked stepmother Lady Tremaine is wicked she doesn't try to kill any hero conquer any nation or unleash hell on earth instead she finds suit to be abusive to her stepdaughter encouraging her biological children to get in on the abuse as well she forces Cinderella to do all the chores in order to go to the ball and then gets her daughters to shred Cinderella's outfit at the last minute in a bid to stop her attendance later on when the Prince is on the hunt for Cinderella she locks Cinderella in a room trying to prevent her from marrying the Prince she's a social climber manipulative and abusive and underrated Disney era let's talk about Bill Sikes with the behavior of a mob boss it's not a surprise that he's guilty of extortion kidnapping and attempted murder this is your last chance Bill Sikes has a cruel and sadistic personality as he's heard on the phone talking to an underling about torturing and murdering an unknown victim yikes I don't think you really appreciate a situation moving on to someone who's more evil but I suppose understandably evil we have Captain Hook he's the nemesis of Peter Pan the flying boy who cut off Hook's hand and fed it to a crocodile now he wants to kill Peter slight overreaction but we can appreciate where the captain is coming from it's his process of revenge that is more evil he kidnaps Tiger Lily using her as bait for pan later on he captures all the Lost Boys and darling children and tries to make them walk the plank walking the plank is execution he was gonna kill like a dozen kids just because he lost his hand to a flying kid named Peter big overreaction big evil enter the Voodoo man dr. facili a facili a is a voodoo priest who use a shady language to get his clients to agree to spells that are actually detrimental to them he tricks prince naveen into becoming a frog turns naveen's valet into the spitting image of Naveen and then convinces the valet to go along with a plan to marry the richest girl in New Orleans and kill her dad thus making valet and facili a rich that we will be splitting that juicy LaBeouf for tonight down now that's pretty evil but it gets worse as his plan gets a little wobbly and he has to borrow some help from his friends from the other side who demand the souls of New Orleans citizens as payment facili a is fine with this in fact he suggested it and you design he'd trade the souls of the city for some cash and power as is the case of all Disney Villains his plan destroys him in the end and he loses his soul to his friends permanently next we have Mother Gothel Gothel is a fun villain because she straddles the two types of classic Disney villain supernatural witch and emotional manipulator great no I'm the bad guy she steals rapunzel as a child to take advantage of her hair's healing powers and then locks up Rapunzel in a tower far away to keep her hidden which is super mean but she's no lady tremaine about it over the course of Rapunzel's life she convinces her quote/unquote daughter that everything she does she does out of love the world is dark and selfish and cruel she's protecting her daughter mother knows best when the jig is up she tries to murder Rapunzel's newfound love Eugene who courageously sacrifices himself by cutting Rapunzel's hair ending her magic this causes Gothel to revert to her true age and die a truly fitting ending moving on back to the classics let's tackle PETA's biggest villain karela deville gorilla loves fur so much so that she's happy to drown boil or bash dogs on the head to make us spotted fur coat well wearing fur is a bit of a moral battleground these days dog fur is taboo that's where we see the evil in karela deville she is not held down by society's morals she'd kill a pack of puppies for a coat even though society finds this reprehensible when Anita won't sell her puppies to karela she decides to steal as many Dalmatians as possible and I'll be honest if it were other animals I probably wouldn't rank her so high but puppies come on that's evil post karela we find another underrated villain Ratigan from the great mouse detective ratagan who plans on getting rid of the Queen of England and ruling via a robot Queen a wacky plan unfortunately a Ratigan doesn't stop at wacky he straight up feed 10 CH min to his pet cat on a whim he has no regard for life at all but a step evil err is Madame Medusa another villain in the Tremaine category Medusa is a conniving woman who just wants to get rich quick she more or less kidnaps a young orphan girl penny bring her to the swamp to crawl in a cave to retrieve the devil's eye diamond the cave is at low tide and high tide will drown penny and Medusa threatens to not bring penny up without the diamond this is classic Medusa no respect for human worth a diamond is more precious to her than a life and as you might be able to predict her downfall is greed moving on to yzma evil check scary beyond all belief check fabulous check the Emperor's advisor she puts it bluntly herself it is no concern of mine whether or not your family has what was it again food you really should have thought of that before becoming peasants she loves basking in power when cusco fires her for being insubordinate she teams up with Kronk to poison him which is attempted regicide we say attempted because Kronk mixed up the potions and turned Cusco into a llama afterwards she takes the throne and attempts to kill him throughout the remainder of the movie it is hard to think of her as the worst kind of evil however because she's so cartoonish in a net plus she gets turned into a kitten at the end of the movie and that's her entire punishments life as a cat moving on to the digital world we have King candy definitely insane King candy or turbo is also smart and manipulative he game jumps putting everyone in his game and the racing game in danger and ultimately goes mad with power his corruption ultimately nearly destroys the game which easily could have killed its entire population a total madman next up Hans Hans is a subversive Disney villain he sets out appearing to be the romantic lead he and Anna even get engaged but as the movie progresses we find out that he has ulterior motives I knew I'd have to marry into the throne somewhere he sets out to kill Elsa Mariana led on a die and then take the throne what a dastardly plan his plan is of course ruined by the love between Anna and Elsa but he tries to stab and slice Elsa to death with a sword for his two-faced nature horrible manipulation and attempted murder for political reasons he ranks higher than King candy but let's throw in hopper here the easiest way to describe hopper is as a dictator who enslaves the weaker population of ants through threats of violence someone could get hurt he's similar to other dictators throughout history in the sense that he's willing to commit violence not because he's a sadist but because it's a tool to force others to do what he wants it's about keeping those hands like other dictators he experiences karma as soon as there's an uprising on the topic of dictators let's talk about the cuddliest villain on the list lots o hugging bear now I know it might be a surprise to see a cute little Care Bear ranked as more evil than our previous dictator but that's the thing Lotso 2 is a dictator one who runs Sunnyside daycare with a fluffy iron fist he has no problem using violence or getting rid of dissidents but truly lot says most evil moment is when after Woody and Buzz helped them escape the conveyor belt leading to their deaths instead of pushing the button to save their lives he looks down with a sadistic smile knowing well that those innocent toys who just assisted him will be sent to their fiery deaths total psycho now let's continue down the King killing path with shan-yu leader of the Huns Shin Yu for reasons that aren't really that clear wants to invade and take over China tele Rambler to send his strongest armies I'm ready he's a warlord and kills by the hundreds eventually he aimed an elite band of hun warriors captured the Emperor and Shan Yu tries to murder him it's again unclear why he wants to take over China so badly but the guy is happy to slaughter any man or woman in his way for his indiscriminate destruction and murder will give him the nod over hopper and lot so what could be worse than killing a king how about a god enter Hades Lord of the underworld now Hades does have a bone to pick his older brother Zeus made him ruler of the dead and gave him the boot out of Olympus this Spurs Hades elaborate act of revenge which involves killing Zeus's son unleashing the Titans in prison exuse and magma and becoming ruler of Olympus classic villain stuff and I think I'm gonna like it here of course along the way we see more personal examples of his evilness in one-sided deals he in acts with mortals he's like facili a getting people into binds that they don't need to be in mag is now his slave since she sold her soul to rescue her first love his soldiers sold to me to save your boyfriend's life he exploits this to wound and weaken Hercules he's a chess player he moves people around to do his bidding this comes back to haunt him as Hercules is able to best Hades deal through finally becoming a true hero something a huckster like Hades couldn't foresee and in classic Disney fashion his punishment fits his crime being drowned at his own river of death we've now entered the ten in tenth place we have Jafar Jafar is a classic Disney villain evil advisor tries to kill the hero tries to force the princess the Miriam gets his comeuppance in a fiendishly appropriate manner it's all there he has the Sultan literally brainwashed and will stop at nothing to gain as much power as he can't - you he like many others just loves the power and doesn't understand the ramifications of it aside from the murder attempts on Aladdin and the princess however he doesn't have much else there is note a lot below the surface level it's a standard love of power it's a little bland it's classic evil but is it really innovative evil we're ranking Jafar attempt place in ninth place we get the Evil Queen from Snow White one of the oldest villains on the list she's a vain cruel woman who upon discovering her stepdaughter is prettier than her decides to have her murdered when that doesn't succeed she turns herself into a witch and poisons her side know what blows my mind about this is that she turns herself ugly she becomes ugly to kill the prettiest woman she's not content to be pretty she must remove the possibility that there is a prettier woman than her in existence she's magic she could possibly make herself prettier but it's not about bettering herself it's about taking others down and it's that jealous mentality that puts her at number nine on the evilest at number 8 we have oogie boogie oogie boogie is a sadist in the purest sense of the word that's what makes him stand out from all the others santa claus more or less falls into his lap through a new effort on boogies part and boogie basically decides to torture him to death what he has no secret plan he just wants to rip people apart I mean he's so happy about this that he sings a song about it that's pretty messed up when Jack shows up he does engage in a toying battle that just amuses boogie he finds the entire situation to be a game which is a classic sign of sociopathy right up until his cover is ripped off when his cover is blown and his entire being is shown to be a sentient colony of bugs panic finally sets in and he dissolves into a pile of insect goop a gross and pathetic end number 7 is a real deep cut the coachmen from Pinocchio if you haven't seen this one in a while go back and give it a watch the coachman is a monster he lures young boys to a fun land called pleasure Islands where they can play smoke and drink as much as they want I'm that sounds a lot like how crime documentary start and then he abruptly turns the kids into donkeys to be sent away to God knows where he's part kidnapper part slave trader part metaphor for stranger danger he is basically the Disney variants of a serial killer and truly one of the most disturbing villains on our list I get the creeps just thinking about him yuck time for a fan favorite in our number 6 spot Ursula modeled after the drag queen divine Ursula is an exiled sea witch who like many other villains makes sheisty deals with unsuspecting villains to get ahead in life she has a whole cavern full of souls who couldn't uphold their ends of the bargains that they made she gets Ariel to trade her voice for her legs and then makes it her life's mission to Wed Ariel's I'll see him she nearly succeeds though does prevent Ariel from kissing Eric takes Ariel hostage and blackmails King Trident into giving her command of the Seas as queen of the Seas she causes predictable Disney villain mayhem zapping ships and causing total chaos her newly giant frame makes too great a target and Prince Eric seizes the moment to make an Ursula skewer on the bow of the ship coming in at number 5 we finally get to a real king Killer scar scar gets this spot by the fact that he actually killed a king he orchestrated Simba being caught in a stampede got his brother to run into the gorge to rescue Simba and then threw his brother off a cliff then he blamed Simba for the entire mess telling him to run away for good measure he sent his hyenas after Simba to kill and eat him so scorer gets bonus evil points for King slang killing his hyenas were not successful but scar took hold of the kingdom where he mismanaged it to the point of famine he's a murderer and an ineffective ruler he ruled through fear and deceit when Simba came to challenge scar for rule the pride lands Skaar played off of Simba's misguided guilt in an attempt to weaken Simba and it would have worked had scars pride and sadism not gotten in the way causing him to admit to Simba that he himself killed Mufasa eventually Simba overpowered him throwing him down to the hyenas below where he was mauled by his own betrayed followers at number 4 it's judge Claude Frollo judge Frollo sauce in everywhere except within himself he's a viciously cruel man who makes it his life's mission to rid Paris of the gypsy people an ethnic group he views as subhuman moment Palace of Justice in the first few minutes of the film he kills a gypsy mother who is pleading for sanctuary at notre-dame when he strikes her for his punishment the Archdeacon makes him care for the orphan child who Frollo locks away in Notre Dom and like Gothel plants false stories of how cruel the world is and how Quasimodo will be mocked and scorned by those outside eventually another gypsy woman Esmeralda shows Quasimodo some kindness and stands up to frollo's cruelty in public he tries to arrest her but she finds sanctuary and the cathedral at this point Frollo becomes enamored with Esmerelda and worked tirelessly to secure her capture when he does he offers her the ultimatum die or be his mistress she chooses death choose me for the fire of course Quasimodo saves the day and it is for Allah who ends up consumed in the raging inferno in Paris but along the way he tries to stab Quasimodo he's a hypocrite who uses his power to try and remake the world in His image willing to wipe out anyone who doesn't look like him he's a monster now let's get into the top three the bronze medal of evil goes to Maleficent not the Angelina Jolie version but the original Sleeping Beauty one this is one vindictive fairy she puts a spell on baby Aurora to die on her 16th birthday just because the king and queen hadn't invited Maleficent to Aurora's christening celebration I mean that takes pettiness to a whole new level then when the plan looks to be foiled by Aurora's love Philip she kidnaps the prince locks him in a dungeon and reveals an even more sadistic plan she's going to imprison Phil up until he's about to die from old age then we'll let him go free so that he can rescue the sleeping Aurora and give her true love's kiss he'll be ancient she won't of aged a day and he'll die right after sleeeeep she advised repo all this because she wasn't invited to a party of course this plan fails and phillip escapes she can't give up she's committed so she turns herself into a freakin dragon and tries to burn Phillip and the kingdom to ash naturally she fails Phillip strikes her in the heart with a sword but she got really really close she caused the whole mess of mayhem and destruction over a social slight for her sadism cunning and avenge hundredfold mentality she takes bronze for evilest villain but the silver medal although it was a tough decision has to go to the Horned King he's the evil king from the Black Cauldron a criminally underrated movie and this guy is pure evil he's a demon Lich like king who desires to raise an army of the Dead how by finding the Black Cauldron to get that he scores the land to find any soothsayers or magicians who may aid him in his quest of course these prisoners escape and look to find the cauldron to destroy it but through the magic of storytelling the Horned King tracks them down letting them do the hard work once he gets the cauldron he raises an army of the Dead who promptly go about killing anything living in his path even the Kings own allies he's a Hellraiser he wants to kill every living thing does he want to rule does he care that it will be ruling over the dead it doesn't matter death and destruction is his true desire in this sense he is primordial evil he isn't a sadist he isn't a manipulator he isn't even interested in power for powers sake he just seeks to destroy life of course as a classic villain he is destroyed by the power that he sought being devoured by the evil cauldron itself and finally in first place the gold medal of most evil Disney villain Chernabog Chernabog is the demon from the Night on Bald Mountain Fantasia sequence Chernabog is the name of an Eastern European evil deity and is for Disney purposes the literal devil he awakens and raises all the evils of the world he is their master he brings them to life he plays with them he morphs them he destroys them he is their God and all cower before him he is raw evil raw power unlike every villain on our list he isn't destroyed by his own power in fact he's not destroyed at all instead it is the dawn and with it the bells of the church that banished and weakened Chernabog he withdraws into his wings and retreats into hiding overpowered by the light and the good but he isn't vanquished he's waiting for the dark to rise once again but make sure you let us know in the comments section who you think is the most evil Disney villain and don't forget to binge watch our good to evil playlist where we break down the morality of your favorite shows cartoons and movies but most importantly stay wicked
