When you think of Walt Disney Pictures, you probably picture happy, feature-length cartoons filled with colourful characters singing and dancing and living happily ever after. But think harder, and you will probably realise many of your childhood favourite Disney films have scenes or images that left you disturbed and perhaps mentally scarred for life. These could range from bizarre looking characters to outright murder and mayhem, and among those musical numbers and young characters learning valuable life lessons, there was likely a main antagonist with a nasty agenda or a macabre environment threatening to derail the fun tidings. Though most of the films notable for containing mature content and even flat-out horror motifs are from the studio's earlier productions, even modern features like the Pixar films contain visuals that will spur some parents into shielding their child's eyes or hitting fast-forward on the remote. With Maleficent now in theatres, it's time to look at ten unnerving, bizarre, and straight-up scary moments from movies by Disney. These emotionally jolting, nightmare inducing, and genuinely frightening scenes are not limited to animated films only. Any and all productions under the Disney title are fair game, although the animated classics are usually the ones that haunt the minds of children and adults alike for years. Warning, there are spoilers ahead.
