Beauty And The Beast (1991)

The Movie Death: Beast is stabbed in the back and lies bleeding to death in Belle's arms while struggling to breath (presu🔴mably thanks to a pu🔯nctured lung).

How It Broke Us: It doesn't matter that he was magically brought back to life moments later by Belle's declaration of love - by this point we have already seen a Disney character that we have got to know and grown to ꦍlove die a slow and agonising death just because life can be an utter bastard sometime♎s.

The Black Cauldron (1985)

The Movie Death: The Horned King &nda🦩sh; an undead, skeletal villain – is destroyed when his magic cauldron gets out of control and consumes him, sucking him in piece by piece – clothing, flesh and finally bone.

How It Broke Us: It’s pretty much the first and only cartoon character that we have ever seen skinned alive. But he was always ‘undead’ anyway, so it’s ok,♌ right? Our therapist says that it’s ok.

The Mouse And His Child (1977)

The Movie Death: In this story about toys being enslaved and ruled as 𓂃an army by the evil Manny The Rat, one toy breaks down and is treated to a sarcastic speech of sympathy𓃲 by Manny before another rat is ordered to take him apart for spare parts.

How It Broke Us: It teaches us an important🅷 lesson about t🌊he cruel conditions of slavery, as well as the fact that rats are definitely, definitely vile little creatures.

When The Wind Blows (1986)

The Movie Death: Having taken shelter during a missile attack, James and Hilda try to continu📖e their lives in the wake of mass destruction, only to succumb to starv♔ation and radiation.

How It Broke Us: It seemed like such a sweet film, in the same style as The Snowman . Instead it told the increasingly trag﷽ic tale of two people dying. A classic case of “♓Don’t judge a film by its cover”.

Black Beauty (1994)

The Movie Death: Even though Black Beauty spends most of hi♕s life smitten with chestnut mare Ginger, the two are eventually separated and, when he sees her agaiꦚn, she is clearly being abused by her new owner. Then, a short time later, he sees her dead body on a wagon.

How It Broke Us: They were supposed to end up together and live happily ever after galloping in a field somewhere. Inste♒ad we are taught that not everyone gets a happy ending. Thanks for that.

Hocus Pocus (1993)

The Movie Death: Young girl Emily Binx is killed by the three 'comedy' witches of Hocus Pocus i🦩n 1693, when they drain her of her life force in order to regain their youthful ap🅷pearance.

How It Broke Us: It was never really addressed for the rest of the film, or indeed the scene, but these not-so scary witc✃hes in a Disney film definitely KILLED an innocent little girl. This might explain why we've always been a little scared by Bette Midler.

The Last Unicorn (1982)

The Movie Death: Evil witch Mommy Fortuna succu🌺mbs to her o🔜wn freakshow of magical creatures and is clawed to death by a harpy.

How It Broke Us: This was supposed to be a film about a sweet, ama🍷zing unicorn! The lesson to be learned here is:🉐 Film titles can be misleading.

Project X (1987)

The Movie Death: This sci-fi thriller about chimps being trained on flight simulators and rea𒁃cting to nuclear situations hits a tragic point when one of the chimps, ꧙Goliath, gets stuck in a chamber and dies from radiation poisoning.

How It Broke Us: If we didn’t know it before, we definitely knew it after watching this🌟 film: ANIMAL🅷 TESTING IS BAD.

Turner And Hooch (1989)

The Movie Death: Having formed the best interspecies buddy cop partnership since K-9 (released three months before), Turner & Hooch&rsꦛquo;s oddball relationship comes to an early end when the heroic hooch takes a bullet for his partner.

How It Broke Us: The film made us love this brilliantly slobbery dog only to kill him off at the end. We’ve never been able to form m🎀eaningful friendships since.

Oliver And Company (1988)

The Movie Death: Roscoe and DeSoto, two Dobermans belonging to evil l🥃oan shark Sykes die when they are thrown from a car on to train tracks and electrocuted. Sykes then dies too by drivꦍing straight into an oncoming train.

How It Broke Us: The Dobermans may have been vicious but their deaths were so graphic . Plus,🔯 did we reall𒅌y need to now be afraid of trains too?
