    I'd be scared of that witch too! Here are some villainess suggestions:
    Sue Ann Stepenek-Pretty Poison, nobody does bad as good as Tuesday Weld.
    Rhoda Penmark-The Bad Seed-new meaning to the phrase 'bad kid'

    Thanks! I want to play........here are a couple of my most feared Disney movie villains when I was a child -- other than the other Cruella of course, the queen "witch" of all

    Queen of Hearts - Alice in Wonderland
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_of_Hearts_(Alice's_Adventures_in_Wonderland)

    Madame Medusa - The Rescuers
    this character scared me soooo much when I was little. I loved this movie and I suppose I loved to hate Madame Medusa!!

    What about the Sanderson Sisters from "Hocus Pocus"? Witchy sisters who sing in three-part harmony?! Terrifying!

    You have *three* sisters? Lucky!

    How about Faye Dunaway as Joan Crawford in Mommie Dearest. Nothing more villainous than a mean mother.

    Nurse Mildred Ratched.

    The Other Mother from Coraline.

    female villains are always so much more scary than their male counterparts.
