Must See Movie...
Memorable, crazy movie
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
I remember watching this as a kid! I loved it then, and I love it now. The one liners in this are great. Dracula: Soon you will grow sleepy and obey my every command. Witch: Over my dead body! Dracula: Don't be a tease! LOL! I had forgotten all about this until I stumbled across it on another website. All of the characters are great. The wolfman, the mummy, frankenstein's monster, the king of the dead, igor, and of course Dracula, and the witch. The funniest parts are the dialogue between Dracula and the witch, and Dracula and igor. Dracula to igor: Can't do me any harm huh? Who did that, termites? You have to watch to understand what I mean, but this is a great Halloween short and definitely worth a watch!
I just wanted to say that I really love this movie! I have been looking for it for a really long time. My mom went on to EBAY a couple of year ago and purchased it from this lady in Canada for $70 bucks on VHS.I recently had a friend copy it on to a DVD. It is so awesome to have and watch anytime I want.If any one is interested in a copy, please let me know. I am more than happy to share! I just wish they would keep these traditional movies on TV for our kids today!Thanks,Priscilla
I remember this show as a little kid. My brother and I still do the little thing we call 'Tinie, Tiny bat, tinie, tiny bat.' It makes us laugh every time. This is a great movie for kids. They don't make them like this anymore.......I would highly recommend this to every kid I know and adults. It has some really cute humor. Judd Hirsch is awesome..Where can I go to buy this movie Amazon?I did try one year to find it and they wanted around 90 bucks for it. I'm not sure I would pay that much - but I would at least pay $30.00 Does anyone have any good ideas?
I found this one year after trick-or-treating. I had no idea what it was at the time, but I thought it was hilarious. Of course, I couldn't find it again. My only issue with this gem is the disco music. Dear God, help me! I also loved Henri Gibson, along with John Schuck and Jack Riley. They were great in these roles. Then, like another viewer discovered, Disney Channel did a Halloween night, probably about ten years ago. I was able to record this, along with "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" with Bing Crosby. Why these are not shown, along with "Garfield's Halloween", I'll never know. Guess the world only loves "The Great Pumpkin". I do as well, but there's more out there, people!
