I have seen this no less than four different times, and it's STILL the most incredible thing I have ever seen.
I have scarred friends' psyches with this amazing Curriefied music video. AND I'D DO IT AGAIN.
This whole movie is amazing, but then it switches gear and gives you TIM CURRY FOR FOUR AND A HALF MINUTES, and then just grinds gears back to the children's film you were just watching. And you are left stunned.
I watched Worst Witch on the Disney Channel, too! A truly formative aspect of my childhood. I had no concept of how terrible this was at the time, but I knew Tim Curry was AWESOME.

haha. This is one of the craziest videos ever. What is it from?
ReplyDeleteThe low-budget witch spectacular, The Worst Witch, starring Fairuza Balk in the title role. Seeing the staples in the kids' witches' hats is adorable.
ReplyDeleteLOL I love Tim Curry. The special effects in this video are amazing!
ReplyDeleteoh my god
ReplyDeleteBack in those days that would have been blue screen, not green.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone else think it was a giant enchilada attack when he first flew out of the castle?
ReplyDeleteUhh... jeez, what Ben said!
ReplyDeleteI particularly love how, just when you think this scene can't get any weirder, it does. Times ten.
They used to run this on the Disney Channel. My sisters had it recorded on VHS and watched it. A lot.
ReplyDeleteHarry Potter is a blatant ripoff of this thing.
ReplyDeleteThis is the best thing.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that Halloween was supposed to be the day when things turn into things all over the place. I guess all of mine were defective.
"Your dentist could turn into a queen."
ReplyDeleteWell, Mr. Curry, aren't WE feeling a bit judgmental today? Hmm. Wonder why that is?
So that's what glee club at Hogwarts looks like...
ReplyDeleteOMG WORST WITCH! I loved this as a little girl! Truly terrible but still special to me! Nostalgia!
ReplyDeleteThey missed the mark by not casting David Bowie for this role.
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of respect for Tim, though.
Holy shit, I can't remember the last time I felt so much secondhand embarrassment.
ReplyDeleteYep, I remember this from a long time ago. But I remember it on HBO not Disney.
ReplyDeleteHoney My dentist is already a queen
ReplyDeleteI remember watching this on Halloween in 4th grade.

ReplyDeletePoor Frankenfurter, how far you have fallen.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome. I remember watching this as a kid on either HBO, or Cinemax. Tim Curry *(#&ing RULES too.
ReplyDeleteToo sexy.
ReplyDeleteIf you ask me, that tambourine should of came into the picture much earlier!
ReplyDeleteThe terrible part is when he flies off with a 12 year old girl in the end.
ReplyDeleteLove this movie. All because of this part.
ReplyDeleteAll I have to say is it makes me love Tim Curry all the more.
ReplyDeleteTheres a toad in my bass guitar :(
ReplyDeleteRocky Horrid TV Show
ReplyDeleteThat dude's kinda hot in a twisted way...
ReplyDeleteA masterful remake/homage.
