This right here?

This was probably the birth of a million fetishes. Seriously, who greenlit this as a children's film? I would like to sincerely thank them. I mean, I would have been a messed up little kidling regardless, but mm, honey.

WHY DID I NEVER SEE THIS MOVIE AS A CHILD OH MY GOD.

[glasgowsmiles]

NO ONE has seen this movie! This is the movie that, when you try to describe it, people tell you it can't possibly exist.

I have no idea how to go about finding it again. Thankfully, the power of YouTube brings me clips from things nobody else I know remembers...

*sigh* Oh, The Five-Thousand Fingers of Dr. T, *I* know you exist...

[mellifluous_ink]

I knew it existed, because I have a mad crush on the villain--but I just never saw it. It's so very seussian. Omg. So much love. I was RAISED on Seuss. Seuss, Grimm and Dahl. This is how I'm raising my children.

Ha, that's so how I was raised. Well, Seuss, Grimm, Dahl, Charles Addams, Poe...

And if my mother wasn't around, terrible horror films. Really, my childhood can all boil down to a strange melange of Disney films and vampires and monsters... shiny happy nice SCARY bubbly pink fluffy BITE YOUR FACE OFF singing princess FANGS. Explains a good deal, probably.
