1.Beauty And The Beast: The Enchanted Christmas (Disney) starring: Paige O'Hara, Robby Benson, Jerry Orbach, David Ogden Stiers, Bernadette Peters
directed by: Andrew Knight

VHS : Beauty And The Beast: The Enchanted Christmas (Disney)
Although the events of this film sit within the time-scale of the original, it is an interesting exploration of some of the untouched themes from its predecessor.

The Beast's dislike of Christmas is assumed by the audience to be simple 'Scrooge'-ism. As the story unfolds, we discover a deeper, more personal rationale for his aversion.

The addition of new characters - Forte (voiced by Tim Curry) and Fife (Paul Reubens - aka Pee-Wee Herman) - gives the story room to expand.

Ultimately, though, this one is strictly for the real fans - or at least, completists! :)

VHS : Muppet Treasure Island (1996) (Disney)
It was great to see all your old Muppet friends in a classic. The singing adds a new dimension to the story. Not that "Sixteen Men on a Deadman's Chest" is not good in its self. And the beautiful Benjamina Gunn added a more romantic touch. By the way if you enjoy the singing skulls you may also want to view the movie "8 Heads in a Dufflbag" with George Hamilton. The song "Cabin Fever" will have you singing along.

Talk about sophisticated dialog.
Benjamina Gunn says, "You left me standing at the altar!"
Captain Smollet replies, "I was on a ship headed for Zanzibar. I got cold feet."
Benjamina Gunn, "You're a frog! You're supposed to have cold feet!"

Tim Curry (being himself) was an excellent Long John ... Read More:

Agreed this film is best watched when your about 8, but if u watched it first back in the 80s then its a classic! overacting and awful special effects only add to the nostalgia. Also loved by my two nieces currently aged 6 and 9 who put it in the VCR everytime they come round.

VHS : Stephen King's IT [1990]
I watched this film twice, and the first time I forward wound through the horror parts because I was on my own! This meant that it wasn't very effectively scary the second time I watched IT, but I still enjoyed the film... up to a point! The first half was great (people have said the acting was wooden but how old were all the actors? About 14! I thought it was pretty decent) but the second half...

The thing that bugged me was how the first half seemed to be the children, and the second half the adults. If the film knitted together the years much like the book does, then I would have liked it a lot more. I started to get fed up when the adults merely told stories about the past, rather than allowing us to view them.

Despite this, I really like ... Read More:

6.Addams Family Reunion [1998] starring: Tim Curry, Daryl Hannah, Ed Begley Jr., Ray Walston, Kevin McCarthy

VHS : Addams Family Reunion [1998]
Gomez searching for a cure for his parents normality? Is that really the best they could come up with?

The problem with this film is, you can't help comparing it to its predecessors. The originals cast seemed to fit the characters perfectly, the new bunch just don't pull it off, and it's not like it's a film that's that demanding. Most notable in poor choice of actor is Wednesday. You really can tell it was made for TV right from the start.

Unless you like Tim Curry, you're not going to enjoy this film. Even then, you'll be hard pushed to find a good reason to put yourself through the entire film. It's not even bad enough to laugh at the badness.

Don't bother

VHS : The Shout [1978]
A young man Robert Graves(played by a fresh faced Tim Curry), arrives at a cricket match in the grounds of a mental hospital where he is to be the scorer. A doctor(Robert Stephens), introduces him to a man called Crossley, who is to score the match alongside him. Graves then listens as Crossley recounts a tale of how he met a man called Anthony Fielding(John Hurt),who is one of the players on the pitch, and how he became a part of Fielding's life, and from then on the film drifts back and forth from the cricket match to the story Crossley is telling.
This film has a haunting, dreamlike quality to it, and is pretty unique in its approach. Their is no cohesive narrative, and leaves the viewer with as many questions as answers. Thats a good thing in my opinion. The lines between fantasy ... Read More:

VHS : The Rugrats Movie [1999]
I have always been a fan of the show and when i heard they had made a movie i had to get my hands on it. The first time i watched it i was impressed. The beginning of the film is just like one of the classic episodes of the rugrats and then it slowly amounts to a movie thriller. The whole movie is full of funny moments and action scenes you'll find it hard to lose concentration on the film.
The film is a good laugh for the whole family and it is all in all a very enjoyable picture, i recommend that you add this dvd to you collection.

Whilst watching this film a giant frog put his eye up to the window and tried to look at me, I can only assume this has something to do with the film and I will not be watching it again.
