The Coachman is a whole other level of evil compared to Foulfelow. "Honest" John Worthington Foulfellow is a con man and a crook; he and his cat sidekick, Gideon, will happily swindle a child out of money -- but even they have second thoughts about sending children to Pleasure Island to be turned into donkeys. If The Coachman wasn't so scary, the two of them would have turned tail right then and there, taking Pinocchio with them.
I heat to say it but I fully disagree with you. They are acting all fun and care free, but they are just as bad as the Coachman. They steal from you while acting to be your friend. They set you up to be taken by the Coachman and didn't nothing to stop it. They didn't go for help or do anything to show they were not as bad as he was. And knowing this was not their first time dealing with him, how many other poor kids did they leave to him to have them turn into donkeys and sold? No my friend, there they are bad to their core and will do anything with charm to get what they want and not care what happens to you in the end.
(shakes head) The picture, along with my post, references an actual scene from Disney's Pinocchio. To wit:
Coachman: ... and I takes 'em to Pleasure Island!
Foulfellow: Ahhh, Pleasure Island. (double take) Pleasure Island!? But the law! Suppose they... !
Coachman: No, no, there's no risk. They never come back...
(Nightmare Face, as seen in the picture)
Coachman: ... as boys!
(Foulfellow and Gideon clutch each other in fear; Foulfellow is speechless, trembling)
(Coachman grabs both Foulfellow and Gideon)
Coachman: Now. I've got a coach that leaves at midnight. We meet at the crossroads. And no double-crossing!
Foulfellow: (meekly) No, sir.

Look into the face of evil and try to not have nightmares. I think this face, and that scene with Lampwick's change freaked me mega out as a kid. Watched this once at....three years old and didn't watch again for four or five years later.
I think what makes that face all the worse is it's a human face. It's closest to the viewer and thus is the most disturbing.
