not all Disney movies make you feel all warm and fuzzy I am a monster you know he told you that look at me welcome to Ms mojo then today we'll be counting down our picks for the top ten darkest Disney films well thank you big baby why don't you come meet our new friends before we begin we publish new content every day so be sure to subscribe to our Channel and ring the bell to get notified about our latest videos for this list we're looking at the animated and Disney Pixar flicks that have the most scary disturbing and sinister plot lines number 10 the Fox and the Hound when a young Fox's mother being killed at the beginning of a movie isn't the worst thing to happen to him you know you're in for a depressing story it may at first seem like an adorable tale of interspecies friendship but Big Momma's warning the Todd and copper our natural enemies lingers over the entirety of the Fox and the Hound until it finally comes to fruition I don't want to see you get killed I'll let you go this one time in the end these two can never be the best of friends because one has been bred and trained to kill the other there are a lot of sad and scary moments in this film making it one you don't want to show to more sensitive kids number nine The Adventures of Ichabod and mr. toad this movie didn't exactly make it into the Canon of beloved Disney films and it might just be because it's simply too scary for most kids many are familiar with the tale of the Headless Horseman and this 1949 version of the tale manages to ramp up the tension leading up to his appearance in a fashion so effective that it still gives us chills the fact that we never find out for sure what happened to eka bod crane leaves viewers with an unsettling feeling that just can't be shaken next morning Ichabod's hat was found close beside it a shattered pumpkin number 8 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as Disney's first major feature film it seems that the house of mouse was still ironing out the kinks of what kids would like when they made this one it has of course become a timeless classic but its themes are decidedly more sinister than some of its successors the Evil Queen wanting to dispose of Snow White is pretty standard fairy tale fodder but it's the part where she wants the hunter to rip her heart out and put it on display that has us raising our eyebrows bring back haha number 7 Pocahontas there has been plenty of debate over the years since this movie was released as to whether it properly serves its purpose because we invaded their land and cut down their trees and a cappella telling the story of early colonialism in the United States is going to be a touchy subject no matter how you spin it even though for the most part it's clear that the white guys are the bad guys in Pocahontas [Music] not to mention a major character is suddenly killed and John Smith is almost executed this is undoubtedly one of the heavier stories that Disney has attempted to tell if you kill him you'll have to kill me too number 6 Toy Story 3 the Toy Story franchise is known for tugging at our heartstrings but the third installment in the series manages to go even further than its predecessors the thing that makes woody special is he'll never give up on you there are several times throughout Toy Story 3 where things seem pretty bleak for our favorite toys with none being quite as horrifying as when it looks as though buzz woody and the rest of the gang are going to be burned alive in an incinerator [Music] not to mention this film's villain is totally creepy and has some seriously dark intentions something changed that day inside lots are something she replaced us come on number five The Lion King parents dying in Disney movies is pretty par for the course but it never happens and quite as horrific of a fashion than in this 1994 film not only to scar murder his brother Mufasa in cold blood by throwing him into a gorge of stampeding animals he then goes on to blame Simba for it exiling him from his home the king is dead if it weren't for you we'd still be alive when Simba grows up pang goes back to Pride Rock to take what's rightfully his he recreates the circumstances of his father's death to get revenge run run away scar never returned number 4 Bambi how could a movie about adorable woodland creatures be dark well for starters the action kicks off when Bambi's mother is killed by hunters [Music] everyone is familiar with the basic outline of the story but there's another lesser-known scene you may have forgotten about when hunters are approaching a trio of birds are hiding in the underbrush he's coming quiet one of them is panicking and suggest they fly away which the others quickly dismiss she can't help herself though and soars out of their hiding spot only to be immediately shot and killed number three Pinocchio sure he gets eaten by a giant whale but that's not even the worst of it that's one of Disney's earlier films Pinocchio definitely has a more sinister tone than what we've come to associate with waltz creations [Music] and while there are a lot of scary things that happen in this 1940 movie the worst has to be Pleasure Island where boys can go to drink smoke carouse and oh get turned into donkeys watching one of the boys be transformed was terrifying when we were kids and honestly didn't get any less disturbing when we got older number 2 The Hunchback of Notre Dom Disney has made a lot of feel-good movies over the years and this definitely isn't one of them there are a lot of unsettling moments in the Hunchback of Notre Dom from Quasimodo's public humiliation when he's dubbed the king of fools to furloughs creepy obsession with Esmeralda and his song Hellfire where he talks about wanting her to burn in hell because he can't stop thinking about her talk about red flags [Music] [Music] before we unveil our top pick here are a few honorable mentions [Music] operation cleanup has well failed would you know rising toxicity levels have made life unsustainable on earth [Music] number one the Black Cauldron the 80s were a time of transition for Disney stop by the end of the decade they would begin the animation studios Renaissance with The Little Mermaid but there were some bumps on the way to success sandwiched between the Fox and the Hound and the Great Mouse Detective Disney released this film which everyone has been trying to forget ever since featuring an army of undead soldiers and an absolutely terrifying villain the Black Cauldron stands out as being the most undestood you'll
