He is the darkest Pixar villain indeed, however The Incredibles as a whole was aimed at a slightly older audience to begin with. Even disregarding Syndrome, the film conntains alot of dark and mature material such as attempted suicide, loads of onscreen death played for both comedy and drama, Helen's suspisions of Bob having an affair, etc.

From what I heard, the producer was supposedly under fire from a parent who took their five year old to see the film, only for the producer to ask why he would he have a kid that young watch it in the first place....so yeah, the film was never meant for really young kids.
