The Definitive Ranking of the Most Sinister Disney Villain Quotes

January 27, 2015
January 27, 2015

Our favorite Disney fairy tales would not be complete without a villainous lead. In order to relive just how wicked they are, we’ve decided to rank some of the most sinister Disney Villains quotes starting from a little sinister to really, really sinister. We made sure each quote was equal parts creepy and dastardly.

10. “I warn you, child. If I lose my temper, you lose your head! Understand?!” –Queen of Hearts, Alice in Wonderland

Queen of Hearts from "Alice in Wonderland"

Ominous? Very. Sinister? We’re kind of skeptical the Queen would go through with it. Plus it’s too straight-forward a threat to be truly sinister.

9. “The most beautiful girl in town, that makes her the best! And don’t I deserve the best?” –Gaston, Beauty and the Beast

Gaston in "Beauty and the Beast"

There was always something dark behind Gaston’s eyes, right? Even some light boasting between friends (servant and master?), which could be considered harmless, becomes dastardly when Gaston is involved. No one menaces like Gaston.

8. “Alright, keep the little beasts for all I care! Do what you want with them! Drown them! But I warn you, Anita, we’re through! I’m through with all of you!” –Cruella de Vil, One Hundred and One Dalmatians

Cruella de Vil in the animated movie "One Hundred and One Dalmatians"

Cruella is talking about puppies. We hate to remind you of this, but for the purposes of this article we have to. Because it makes her the absolute worst.

7. “And there, my faithful huntsman, you will kill her!” –Evil Queen, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

The Evil Queen from the animated movie "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"

If this was a list ranking dagger eyes, Evil Queen would win.

6. “Dear, this whole romance that you’ve invented, just proves you’re too naive to be here. Why would he like you?” –Mother Gothel, Tangled

Mother Gothel from the animated movie "Tangled"

Mother Gothel is messed up. Manipulating Rapunzel so she can stay close to that magic hair? Evil.

5. “Triton’s daughter will be mine and then I’ll make him writhe. I’ll see him wriggle like a worm on a hook!” –Ursula, The Little Mermaid

Ursula from the animated movie "The Little Mermaid"

This is really uncomfortable and incredibly malevolent. Combine it with this image and we can guarantee that we’re never sleeping again.

4. “You poor, simple fools. Thinking you could defeat me. Me! The mistress of all evil!” –Maleficent, Sleeping Beauty

Maleficent from the animated movie "Sleeping Beauty"

The fact that Maleficent can turn into a Dragon makes everything she does more sinister than anything we’ll ever do. And while we’re comforted by that, we live in fear of ever meeting her and hearing her say this quote.

3. “You’re speechless, I see. A fine quality in a wife.” –Jafar, Aladdin

Jafar from the animated movie "Aladdin"

Is this sinister, we can hear you asking yourself? Um yeah, he’s basically cool with forcing someone to marry him and taking her silence as acquiescence. Can’t trust a man with a curly beard like Jafar’s.

2. “Death is the only adventure you have left!” –Captain Hook, Peter Pan

Captain Hook from the animated movie "Peter Pan"

This line is pretty shudder-inducing and quite profound. But mostly really creepy.

1. “I killed Mufasa!” –Scar, The Lion King

Scar - "The Lion King"

Scar is the ultimate Disney Villain. He redefines what it means to be wicked. The fact that he says this chilling line with something close to joy means it wins the most sinister award every time.
