Gogans

The Gogans are the chief antagonists of the Disney movie Pete's Dragon and are a gang of nasty hillbillies who treat the orphaned protagonist (Pete) like a slave and often abuse him both emotionally and physically - eventually Pete can no longer put up with the abuse and flees but they pursue him only to get knocked into a mudpit by an unseen force (which turns out to be the titular dragon - named Elliot).

The Gogans are enraged due to the fact they "paid $50" for Pete - they also hate the idea that they may have to actually do work for themselves thus decide to pursue Pete and drag him back to the farm to fulfil his job as their slave.

The Gogans finally track Pete down to the fishing village where he is being cared for by a kindly lighthouse keeper and Nora, who proceeds to defend Pete from the Gogans - who pursue them declaring their intent to drag Pete back "home" (with their song "Bill of Sale") - however the Gogans are ultimately sent airborn when, in their attempts to pursue Pete and Nora by boat they are rammed by an invisible Elliot, causing them to splash into the water.

The Gogans proceed to make a deal with Dr Terminus - the other antagonist of the film - who is seeking to capture Elliot for use in medicine, when Terminus lures Pete and Elliot into a trap the Gogans are there to try and kidnap Pete, however Elliot manages to break free of the net being used to hold him and saves Pete from the Gogans before incinerating their Bill Of Sale, dousing them in a barrel of tar and chasing them away.

The Gogans were not seen after this incident and given their cowardly nature they likely never will be..
