Disney films not as scary as they used to be...
So I recently re-watched 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' (1937) with my niece, and the villain, the Queen, in that was a very dark and menacing villain. When she changes her appearance to look more old and disfigured... it was a very chilling scene, especially for a "children's movie".
The same thing with 'Pinocchio' (1940), 'The Black Cauldron' (1985) (which wasn't that good) and 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' (1996). Then there's Dr. Facilier in 'The Princess and the Frog' (2009).
Ever since 'Tangled' (2010), a lot of today's Disney films have been better for the most part than what they used to do in the 2000s... but, they do seem to lack a dark and scary villain. Gothel from 'Tangled' for example, was a dark character, but she never had a scary and chilling moment. The "Mother Knows Best" song was very bouncy and ironic... but it was never chilling.
These are not criticisms, but are observations... I feel like Disney should go back to those dark and scary, almost horror-like villains. They were what made those films stand out the most.
