Maleficent, the self-proclaimed “Mistress of All Evil,” only ranked 10th on this PixlParade list ranking Disney villains by level of villainy. While some of the rankings might surprise you, the team took a scientific approach to rating evil and quantified the type and amount of evil each villain committed. Looked at in this way, it’s hard to argue that Frollo of The Hunchback of Notre Dame isn’t the evilest villain. He gets points for mass murder, mass domination, war crimes, torture, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Of course, levels of evil will always have an element of opinion and reaction. Cruella de Vil ranking 35th feels low for someone who wants to kill puppies and steal their fur. Hades is a fan-favorite and made it to #12. Is he more evil or charismatic? Captain Hook at #30 might feel wrong since he’s the original Disney pirate. Who got robbed and who’s overrated? Explore the chart and decide for yourself.
