Skeletor

Skeletor is the skull-faced villain from the 1980s animated series *He-Man and the Masters of the Universe*, perpetually scheming to conquer Castle Grayskull.

The name now serves as a mocking descriptor for anyone gaunt or skeletal in appearance: She's been dieting so hard she's starting to look like Skeletor.
