This is what nightmares are made of…
Disney is infamous for creating controversial media and then later editing scenes out or removing the film or TV episode for circulation. Off the top of my head, I can think of Disney editing the nudity out of Splash, reworking the endings of its World World II propaganda cartoons, and changing the ending of Spirited Away.
But no Disney creation is as nightmare-fueled as the 1995 animated comedy-horror short film Runaway Brain, which features an evil Mickey Mouse and depicts one of the few on-screen deaths of a character.
The 7-minute short follows Mickey Mouse trying to make up his promises to Minnie after forgetting the anniversary of the first time they met. Hoping to get enough money to take Minnie on an expensive vacation, Mickey Mouse signs up for an experiment with scientist Dr. Frankenollie.
