Who doesn’t love a good villain? No one cares about the princess unless she is being rescued by her prince from the clutches of the ‘bad guy’ and it’s definitely no fun watching our heroes unless they are a part of someone’s vicious and evil plot.

Mother Gothel from Tangled (2010)
She basically kidnapped a child, raised it as her own for her selfish desires of gaining ‘eternal beauty,’ and locks her up for eighteen years. Mother Gothel is also pretty much the queen of emotional blackmail which is sad because, let’s face it, Rapunzel’s not exactly the sharpest crayon in the box. Oh and let’s not forget that she tries to kill our hero as well.
