Did any of these dark characters scare you as a kid, or maybe even as an adult? Let us know in the comments, and be sure to also check out our video of the Top 10 Things Only Adults Notice in Kids' Movies: th-cam.com/video/EE7gv_KdjH8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=QwLKzVdSU6NT-GZ_
There are 2 that terrified me as a kid 1. Trunchbull 2. Karbonkel (Dutchies know) As an adult it's just the one: Frollo. Because he is not just an imaginary villain, he represents so many people irl, and that's the scary part
Other dark characters from films which I've not watched in a very long time: The Horned King (The Black Cauldron), Professor Ratigan (Basil The Great Mouse Detective), Stromboli (Pinocchio), Doris (Meet the Robinsons), Dag the coyote (Barnyard), Chernabog (Fantasia), Smokey (Stuart Little), Rattlesnake Jake (Rango), Tighten (Megamind), Queen Gnorga (A Troll in Central Park), Professor Screweyes (We're Back: A Dinosaur's Story), Professor Poopypants (Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie), Madame Medusa (The Rescuers), The Wicked Witch of the West (The Wizard of Oz) and The Grand High Witch (The Witches).
The Trunchball truly terrified me as a youngster, especially when Miss Honey and Matilda are hiding in her house. Pam Ferris seems like a lady offscreen.
Pam Ferris plays a very different character in 'Rosemary & Thyme', where she and Felicity Kendall solve murder mysteries. Highly recommend watching it if you like British murder mysteries and gardening.
@@ColtonRMagby Have you seen the reunion they all did, where they were dressed normally but acted out various scenes? That was pretty cool, and she was involved with that. She's actually very pretty; she's just been cast as characters like the Trunchball and Marge Dursley.
My congratulations to the actress for putting herself completely into the role, she managed to terrify us a lot. The scene of Matilda and the teacher hiding in her house the first time leaves the heart trembling with terror
I was expecting The Coachman from Pinocchio, due to his mysterious nature, scary grin, greedy motivations, and the fact that he, along the other villains from the movie, was the one of the few Disney villains who didn't get his comeuppance. What a scary and realistic character.
nice choice! I completely forgot about him and I watch Pinocchio all the time. That's another thing with Pinocchio, i.e. it teaches us many life lessons and one of them is some of the nefarious people in life escape justice (not just the coachman but Honest John, Gideon, Monstro the Whale, Stromboli)
I even heard that other actors were considered to play Judge Doom, like Tim Curry. Apparently, Curry was considered too scary. Yeah, as if Christopher Lloyd didn't already make Judge Doom scary with his climactic reveal.
The main antagonist from 2004’s ‘The Incredibles’, my 2nd most favorite Pixar movie. From Mr. Incredible fanboy to vengeful, psychopathic genius villain.
It’s amazing how when we were kids, we never really noticed how dark and evil some antagonists were until we become adults. You look at it from a different perspective.
When we were younger, we never really noticed how dark certain characters are until you look back at them when you’re older and see it from a different perspective
I feel like Lord Shen from Kung Fu Panda 2 should have at least been an honorable mention. The guy not only killed Po’s mother, but also all of the pandas that he could. Not often you start a kid’s movie telling about how someone committed genocide on the main character’s people.
It's crazy knowing 11 year old Tom Riddle is played by Ralph Fiennes' nephew, Hero. Uncle and nephew do superb jobs portraying two different ages of the terrifying Dark Lord.
Return To Oz was a scary movie. The Wheelers' laughter was frightening for a kid, but the witch took heads of maidens to change her looks, now that was disturbing!
When it comes to Frollo, I don't know what's more bizarre: the fact that this character is in a Disney movie or the fact that he was considerably more sympathetic in the original book.
I had five characters that were frightening to me during the 80's and 90's. Judge Doom, Mrs Trunchbull, The Grand high Witch, Cruella De Vil and the Vigo guy in Ghostbusters 2.
Cruella made me want to protect animals. Ms Trunchbull made me terrified of going to school because I was afraid that à principal would be similar to her
5:53 the sad thing about this is that this is what happened to Bobby Driscoll, the voice of Peter Pan. After the movie, Hollywood dumped him bc he was too old and wasn't "cute" anymore
Ursula from The Little Mermaid kind of frightened me when I was little, especially in her giant form. Mor’du from Brave is also definite nightmare fuel because he’s a big, scary, demonic, and primal bear with scars and weapons that are left on his impenetrable hide.
Mother Gothel from Tangled is a really good example of a seriously messed up villain. I didn't realise she was that incredibly evil until only a few years ago 😬
She's one of the most interesting villains. While typical ones want power, wealth and Control over the whole World, Gothel only wanted Rapunzel for her evil, personal and selfish needs. Definitely a good example.
Professor Ratigan (Basil The Great Mouse Detective), Stromboli and the Coachman - Pinocchio (1940), Dag the coyote - Barnyard (2006), Chernabog - Fantasia (1940), Smokey - Stuart Little (1999), Rattlesnake Jake - Rango (2011), Hal Stewart/Tighten - Megamind (2010), Queen Gnorga - A Troll in Central Park (1994), Professor Ratigan - Basil The Great Mouse Detective (1986), Professor Poopypants - Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017), Madame Medusa - The Rescuers (1977) Professor Screweyes - We're Back: A Dinosaur's Story (1993).
Other Mother definitely deserved the top spot. The Moon King from Kubo and the Two Strings is scary too, because he murdered Kubo's parents and stole one of his eyes.
I watched UP with both of my kids when they were little, I never actually noticed that Muntz was an actual serial killer, it's true when they say that sometimes you have to watch a movie a few times over to catch some details you may have missed!!
I knew that The Other Mother from Coraline was going to be number one She’s creepy as all hell and just became a freaky spider creature by the end of the movie
Things from this list that terrified me as a young girl: a) Giant Scrappy-Doo b) Almost every scene with Agatha Trunchbull c) Cruella's big car chase scene d) Most scenes with Frollo e) Voldemort vs Harry in Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire f) The shoe death & Judge Doom's final battle: those cartoon eyes, though! g) The Other Mother's final scenes Other scenes: The Grand High Witch (The Witches) The dog fight in Watership Down The forest fire in Bambi The bear fight in the Fox and the Hound
Another top ten list that should've been a top twenty. And if I were you guys, I'd include Scroop from the underrated Disney masterpiece that is Treasure Planet. He's a cruel, cold-hearted, selfish, sadistic, psychotic, and merciless spider-like alien pirate with a never-ending lust for blood. He tries to kill Jim Hawkins twice and successfully-murders Mr. Arrow by cutting off his lifeline, making him fall into the black hole while screaming in doom. He also tries to expose John Silver right in front of the whole crew for being such a big ol' softie towards Jim in hopes that the gang will turn on him and even kill him. He's easily the scariest character in the entire movie, while also being it's true villain.
What about Hopper in A Bug's Life. Hopper was really dark. He claimed to be protecting the ants but caused them plenty of harm by demanding twice the amount of food, he normally receives. The ants needed protecting but not from bigger bugs, they needed protecting from Hopper. What about Stinky Pete in Toy Story 2. He was pretty dark.
I agree with Hopper being somewhat dark but he was mostly just very manipulative of the ants 🐜 and was selfish/greedy As for Stinky Pete I think Lotso from Toy Story 3 was much darker and more depressing along with Gabby Gabby from Toy Story 4 and the creepy puppet guy
@@RealTalk1411 Yeah I think so too I just mostly forgot what his intentions were to be honest bc I haven’t seen TS2 in ages TS3 and TS4 are just more fresh in my mind
Great pick, but I must disagree with you old friend. If anyone deserves the number 1 spot, it's the rat Jenner from The Secret of NIMH. He waited for Mrs. Frisby's house to be in right position to not only sabotage so the house can sink in the mud, but to kill Nicodemus when the equipment starts flying around. And try to get the rats to stay in the rose bush despite Mrs. Frisby warning everyone that NIMH is coming and tries to kill her for that.
Where’s Scar (The Lion King) Hans (Frozen) Pete (Toy Story 2) Rourke (Atlantis: The Lost Empire) Woundwart (Watership Down) Shere Khan (The Jungle Book Franchise) Trash Compactor (The Brave Little Toaster) Dr Faclier (The Princess and the Frog) Edgar (The Aristocats)
Thank you for the update, MsMojo..!! I think Soul (2020) also had a depressed dark character living underground. I don't remember what the character's name was though.
Please make top 20 dark characters of movies, Or even another top 10 dark character envolving Ms tweedy from her first movie and dawn of the nugget wich released before yesterday, please include Ms Tweedy, she the 1 who meanness went to whole new level
The shoe dip from Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the mouse transformation scenes in the 90s The Witches still scares me till today Also one thing always baffled me- how and when did Turbo get into that game
If I can suggest the ones I've seen and felt surprised about the villains' dark side, -Lady Tremaine from "Disney's Cinderella" 1950 was mainly not too much of a threat until she locked Cinderella in her room with those glowing eyes. -Rameses from "DreamWorks The Prince of Egypt" 1999 I thought he was just a regular Egyptian until I noticed his father's side of the story; he killed the baby boys and taught his son to never be a 'weak link.' And I thought that was disturbing from good brotherhood to enemies. & -The Cheshire Cat from "Disney's Alice in Wonderland" 1951 has a great Sterling Holloway voice and the best lines. Still, unpredictably, he gets the Queen of Hearts' bad temper against Alice and then snitches on Alice's insults to the Queen. I felt like Wonderland was nothing but helpless beings that didn't take Alice's reality too seriously.
@@yellohammer8571 She isn't as exaggerated as Thanos. Someone did an internet meme showing her with the caption, "In my days, we didn't have Thanos...we had this bitch."
Why are they surprising? They are the villains. What do you expect, a villain acting like Dora the Explorer holding out their hand saying good people don't do good?
Doris from Meet the Robinsons - A bowler hat robot originally designed with good intentions is revealed near the end as the true mastermind with the intentions of wanting to enslave humanity to her whim and overthrow her creator Lewis and partner Goob (Bowler Hat Guy).
@@nataliejones8308 plus they are very iconic! I just wish the Maleficent stand alone movies that Angelina Jolie starred in were better. Maleficent was such a great baddie that she deserved better
The child catcher in Chitty chitty bang bang movie was truly horrifying Trunchball too Also agree with Voldermort and Judge Frollo The dolls head and Sid in Toy Story is not something I’m going to relive 🙈🙈🙈
When I was little syndrome terrified me because he committed mass genocide to the superheroes community and I was and still am a history nerd that I now in history there are some crazy Terrance who committed mass genocide to people.
Miss.Trunchbull also abused Miss.Honey as a child when she broke her arm possibly for disobeying her. The Trunchbull took Miss.Honey's house and inheritance after she left as an adult. I also believe she did kill Magnus Jennifer Honey's father by poisoning him and her mother cause she was the mother's stepsister who had everything while Agatha had nothing. I dont know why the trunchbull didn't get her commupence other than being chased out of the school by the kids. The Truchbull had alot to answer for murder child abuse stealing a house and money that wasnt her's and scaring kids at the school she worked for
12:26 Bellwether was the perfect villain for a film about Prejudice as she's a sheep who hates Carnivores a race that's already treated as second class citizens
10. Scrappy-Doo 9. Count Olaf 8. Syndrome 7. Agatha Trunchbull 6. Sweet Pete 5. Cruella De Vil 4. Judge Claude Frollo 3. Lord Voldemort/Tom Marvolo Riddle 2. Judge Doom 1. The Other Mother
In the middle of Monsters, Inc., Mr. Henry J. Waternoose, the CEO of Monsters, Inc. was later revealed to be in a secret league with Randall Boggs, Mike and Sully's chief rival, when Waternoose discovers that Mike and Sully were the ones who let Boo out of her door, long after Randall discovered. Waternoose banishes Mike and Sully, with Randall's help, and betraying them in the process
I honestly say Voldemort tops them all. He’d willingly kill anyone who stands up to him. Also he’s one of the biggest hypocrites since he wanted a pure blood society when he himself is a half-blood
These are definitely the characters you love hating (no offense, though) happy sunday afternoon, Jen, and what a great top this was. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.

@@gracehowell. I haven't seen that.
Frollo is even more terrifying as an adult because you're aware that there are people out there like him.
As a kid, I knew he was no good but his lust for Esmeralda made me uncomfortable 😣
He is THE MOST REALISTIC VILLAIN Ever!
That Only makes Him EVEN MORE SCARY!
Agreed Frollo represents really bad! People
@@SPAnComCatYeah Like Kilgrave From Jessica Jones

Same.
Really, I forgot, he should have been on the list, he is pure evil, as a child he terrified me, looking almost like the devil himself
@@BG-be8di Especially when he said "as boys."
Mr. Lloyd did a great job playing the psychotic villain in ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’, one of my 25+ most favorite Hollywood movies of all time.
I even heard that other actors were considered to play Judge Doom, like Tim Curry. Apparently, Curry was considered too scary. Yeah, as if Christopher Lloyd didn't already make Judge Doom scary with his climactic reveal.
“Remember me Eddie… when I killed your brother… I talked just like this!” Eyes become daggers
The main antagonist from 2004’s ‘The Incredibles’, my 2nd most favorite Pixar movie.
From Mr. Incredible fanboy to vengeful, psychopathic genius villain.
TrunchBull is definitely too much for me, but how extremely violent she is capable of being, besides Cruella, and Lotso
It’s amazing how when we were kids, we never really noticed how dark and evil some antagonists were until we become adults. You look at it from a different perspective.

Who knew that villains in kids' films could be truly terrifying?! 😱 The Other Mother definitely took the cake for me!
As they should be IMO.
@@CaptainCretaceous91 why
That is a tv movie from 2017
You know who scared me as a child Cruella De Vill
@@robinleedy7828 who
Truly, the other mother is the most darkest villain of all! It has the right to be #1!

‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ is also part of my childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. 😁
Remember me Eddie? When I killed your brother!? *I TALKED JUST LIKE THIS!!!!*
In my Opinion,Melisha Tweedy from Chicken Run should at least be an honorable mention
I agree.

Judge Doom, Mrs Trunchbull, The Grand high Witch, Cruella De Vil and the Vigo guy in Ghostbusters 2.
A little surprised Fairy Godmother from Shrek 2 didn't make an appearance. Maybe I'm missing the definition of "surprisingly dark"?
Cruella made me want to protect animals. Ms Trunchbull made me terrified of going to school because I was afraid that à principal would be similar to her

I watched UP with both of my kids when they were little, I never actually noticed that Muntz was an actual serial killer, it's true when they say that sometimes you have to watch a movie a few times over to catch some details you may have missed!!
Cannot believe the child catcher from chitty chitty bang bang isn’t on here! Terrifying!!
I knew that The Other Mother from Coraline was going to be number one
She’s creepy as all hell and just became a freaky spider creature by the end of the movie
The greatest thing about this entire list is that Scar from The Lion King WASN'T on this list!

What about Hans from Frozen?!
While, he becomes possible love interest. He’s overall a red herring and one of the subverted tropes of the film.
No audiences take him seriously as a villain
@@MorganKing95 To be honest most of the film was funny and Hans was shockingly a dark turn for most people!
Back at the time!
12:19 she’s the one that shocked me the most as an adult.
Buddy Pine AKA Syndrome (formerly known as Incrediboy).
I still ❤ ‘The Incredibles.’
What about Hopper in A Bug's Life. Hopper was really dark. He claimed to be protecting the ants but caused them plenty of harm by demanding twice the amount of food, he normally receives. The ants needed protecting but not from bigger bugs, they needed protecting from Hopper.
What about Stinky Pete in Toy Story 2. He was pretty dark.

Yeah I think so too I just mostly forgot what his intentions were to be honest bc I haven’t seen TS2 in ages
TS3 and TS4 are just more fresh in my mind
Ms. Trunchball is number one for me. She's cruel, vicious, nasty, and sadistic! The Chokey terrified me as a kid!
If anyone deserves the number 1 spot it should be the Gmork from The Neverending Story.
Great pick, but I must disagree with you old friend. If anyone deserves the number 1 spot, it's the rat Jenner from The Secret of NIMH.

Any villain voiced by Tony Jay is going to be dark and scary! Not just Judge Claude Frollo, but Monseiur Darque (Beauty and the Beast) as well.
Don't forget the Elder God from Legacy of Kain.
Mrs. Tweedy from chicken run (2000) and Chicken run dawn of the nuggets (2023)
Where’s Scar (The Lion King)
Hans (Frozen)
Pete (Toy Story 2)
Rourke (Atlantis: The Lost Empire)
Woundwart (Watership Down)
Shere Khan (The Jungle Book Franchise)
Trash Compactor (The Brave Little Toaster)
Dr Faclier (The Princess and the Frog)
Edgar (The Aristocats)
Probably unpopular opinion here but the Bear in brave was a little more scary than he needed to be
I still can't believe that hunchback of notre dame is a kid's movie!
Jim Carrey as Count Olaf was funny and terrifying. Normally you would want one or the other, but that was the best balance of both.
I would nominate Mrs. Tweedy personally.
Thank you for the update, MsMojo..!! I think Soul (2020) also had a depressed dark character living underground. I don't remember what the character's name was though.
Please make top 20 dark characters of movies, Or even another top 10 dark character envolving Ms tweedy from her first movie and dawn of the nugget wich released before yesterday, please include Ms Tweedy, she the 1 who meanness went to whole new level
The shoe dip from Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the mouse transformation scenes in the 90s The Witches still scares me till today
Also one thing always baffled me- how and when did Turbo get into that game
Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers basically spat on the legacy of Bobby Driscoll
If I can suggest the ones I've seen and felt surprised about the villains' dark side,
-Lady Tremaine from "Disney's Cinderella" 1950 was mainly not too much of a threat until she locked Cinderella in her room with those glowing eyes.
-Rameses from "DreamWorks The Prince of Egypt" 1999 I thought he was just a regular Egyptian until I noticed his father's side of the story; he killed the baby boys and taught his son to never be a 'weak link.' And I thought that was disturbing from good brotherhood to enemies.

I felt like Wonderland was nothing but helpless beings that didn't take Alice's reality too seriously.
Miss Trunchbull literally dragged a girl by her hair. That should tell you how dangerous she is, hell, she could probably defeat Thanos
Well she threw the Hammer for the Olympics.
@@yellohammer8571
She isn't as exaggerated as Thanos. Someone did an internet meme showing her with the caption,
"In my days, we didn't have Thanos...we had this bitch."
The Sanderson sisters, the grand high witch, the wicked witch, and that grey haired woman from the Emperor’s new groove
I think the death wolf from puss in boots 2 is definitely a scary villain for a kids movie.
Frollo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame should be on this list for sure!
Those villains are so the last ones I’m letting into a nursery.
Darla Dimple and her butler… from Cats Don't Dance… were slightly scary.
I've often wondered how Anita and Cruella could have been at school together when Cruella looks about 25 years older than Anita.
The Dark Crystal. The entire movie.
Why are they surprising? They are the villains. What do you expect, a villain acting like Dora the Explorer holding out their hand saying good people don't do good?
Doris from Meet the Robinsons - A bowler hat robot originally designed with good intentions is revealed near the end as the true mastermind with the intentions of wanting to enslave humanity to her whim and overthrow her creator Lewis and partner Goob (Bowler Hat Guy).
That principal is the reason both me and my Mom can never fully watch Matilda.
Number 1 absolutely deserved its spot. Great choices for the list btw.
7:48 this scene made me thought she was a demon when I was younger
The Head Demon from "A Night on Bald Mountain" from Fantasia also "Man" from Bambi are examples.
"Head Demon" is called Chernabog. FYI He's definitely and the Score only adds to that.
Make it worst that have people on this is list is in real live. From miss trunchball to cruella even judge Claude frollo. Now that dark 😢😢
Nice list but I would have included Maleficent from "Sleeping Beauty" and the Evil Queen from "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"
Those two scared the shit out of me when I was a toddler.
@@nataliejones8308 plus they are very iconic! I just wish the Maleficent stand alone movies that Angelina Jolie starred in were better. Maleficent was such a great baddie that she deserved better
The other mother is so much scarier when she grows a monster to scared Caroline and got me shivers and dark character other mother is
I'm surprised the murder of Justin in Secret of NIM isn't on this list.
There needs to be a part 2 with Scar from the 1994 Lion King movie in it
Cruella wants to literally make a fur coat out of puppies! How is the fact that she's a dark character a surprise?
The child catcher in Chitty chitty bang bang movie was truly horrifying
Trunchball too
Also agree with Voldermort and Judge Frollo
The dolls head and Sid in Toy Story is not something I’m going to relive 🙈🙈🙈
When I was little syndrome terrified me because he committed mass genocide to the superheroes community and I was and still am a history nerd that I now in history there are some crazy Terrance who committed mass genocide to people.
Miss.Trunchbull also abused Miss.Honey as a child when she broke her arm possibly for disobeying her. The Trunchbull took Miss.Honey's house and inheritance after she left as an adult. I also believe she did kill Magnus Jennifer Honey's father by poisoning him and her mother cause she was the mother's stepsister who had everything while Agatha had nothing. I dont know why the trunchbull didn't get her commupence other than being chased out of the school by the kids. The Truchbull had alot to answer for murder child abuse stealing a house and money that wasnt her's and scaring kids at the school she worked for
Scrappy doo was my favourite
Hopper from bugs life and Ursula from little mermaid scared me as a kid 😬
12:26 Bellwether was the perfect villain for a film about Prejudice as she's a sheep who hates Carnivores a race that's already treated as second class citizens
Governor Ratcliffe from Pocahontas.
10. Scrappy-Doo
9. Count Olaf
8. Syndrome
7. Agatha Trunchbull
6. Sweet Pete
5. Cruella De Vil
4. Judge Claude Frollo
3. Lord Voldemort/Tom Marvolo Riddle
2. Judge Doom
1. The Other Mother
In all honesty, I was REALLY expecting Death from Puss in Boots to be number 1, much less on the top 10
I would have added Hexus from Ferngully: The last rainforest.
In the middle of Monsters, Inc., Mr. Henry J. Waternoose, the CEO of Monsters, Inc. was later revealed to be in a secret league with Randall Boggs, Mike and Sully's chief rival, when Waternoose discovers that Mike and Sully were the ones who let Boo out of her door, long after Randall discovered. Waternoose banishes Mike and Sully, with Randall's help, and betraying them in the process
Let’s not forget how he got exposed and arrested by the CDA and who knows what’ll come of him in the show Monsters at Work
I was terrified of the Trunchbull
I honestly expected the horned king to be on here
Where is Umbridge?
6:55
🎵This vampire bat...this inhuman beast. She ought to be locked up...and never released!🎵
The boogy man from nightmare before Christmas gave me nightmares as a kid. I still finch a bit when I see him as an adult. Maybe bc I hate bugs… 🤮
I love LEMONY SNICKET’S, THE INCREDIBLES, CHIP ‘N DALE: RESCUE RANGERS, the HARRY POTTER franchise, and all five honorable mentions.
fun fact about scrappy being in the movie, it made Tim Curry back out of playing the villain role
Can you please do a video on Top 10 Disney plus TV Shows/Movies that are actually worth watching?
Edna Mode said no kapes and she meant it.
The other mother was so creepy.
I’d definitely say Jafar
Anyone else wince at her pronunciation of “Marvolo”?
#6 is even sadder when you do research on the life and death of child voice actors Bobby Driscoll, who was the voice of Peter Pan in the 1953 film
I honestly say Voldemort tops them all. He’d willingly kill anyone who stands up to him. Also he’s one of the biggest hypocrites since he wanted a pure blood society when he himself is a half-blood
I hated Scrappy Doo when he came onto the original show. When they made him the villain-I got it!
The honorable mentions should have been in the list as a top 15 instead 😕
These are definitely the characters you love hating (no offense, though) happy sunday afternoon, Jen, and what a great top this was. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.
As dark as they are Sadistic. Am I right?
