MCT:September 21, 2008My second favorite BradBury flick. Seeing this as a child was terrifying. I enjoyed every minute o fit.
I enjoyed the book as well. -

The plot is nothing special and the acting is somewhat subdued, but what makes this movie work is atmosphere. Very dark and creepy, this is probably not for very young kids. But older kids to grownups should get a thrill.

MCT:May 17, 2008I still think it's funny that Disney produced this creepy film. It scared me as a kid, but as an adult, I could understand better Bradbury's difficulties.

Bizarre. Eerie. Kind of confusing. Reminded me of something but I'm not sure what. Maybe it reminded me of Stephen King's "It". Not sure.

MCT:January 31, 2008Let's hope the circus you ran away to join when you were a kid, wasn't this one. Classic suspense-based horror. A beautiful, if dark, story.
-
MCT:January 11, 2008This was a great movie. A great adaptation of the book. I loved watching this. Jonathan Pryce played a perfect Dark. Man, I never thought I would like this movie as much as I do.

It may not be as scary today - but this movie scared the pants off of me when I was younger. It still is a quite spooky PG film.

Good premise, poor execution. Dull, poorly plotted, and with the exception of Jonathan Pryce's excellent performance as Mr. Dark, it is rather poorly acted as well. Overall, a rather disappointing film.

This adaption of Ray Bradbury novel is really wonderful. Jonathan Pryce could have gotten overly cheesy as Mr. Dark. As an adult I watch this and he is still scary without a drop of blood. My son loved it even though the effects are from early days, he actually said he learned a lesson from it.

A childhood film that will be forever etched in my memory. It's amazing that eighties films were given so much license to scare children. I'll never look at carnivals in the same way again.

I always liked the title of this movie. This is what I use to say to people when they'd P.O'd me..lol

MCT:February 23, 2007
this film was presented to me as a child; it frightened me then. Also saw this film long before I ever read anything by Bradbury, who I've come to admire- although I don't necesarily seek out his work. The overlying moral of the story is.. Be careful what you wish for.. but there is so much filling the storey. Robards and Pryce were perfectly cast as were the two boys. I always want to watch it in the Autumn.

Walt Disney tried to make a horror movie. This should really be remade with Tim Burton and Johnny Depp.
-
MCT:October 16, 2006
Big, bold, operatic adaptation of Bradbury's best novel, this film is gorgeous and extremely well-made and acted, especially from Jonathan Pryce and Jason Robards.
-
MCT:August 4, 2006
Movie gave me the creeps as a child. I still get a little uneasy thinking about it now. The marks of a classic film, I guess.
-

Saw part of this when I was about 5, scared the hell out of me. Sat and watched the whole thing a year ago, still creepy as hell (duh, its Jonathan Pryce!)

Far from perfect (the ending's more sentimental than I'd prefer) but Mr. Dark is awesome, and the cinematography & sound design create a cool atmosphere through most of it that's just right on. With Pam Grier as the Spider Woman.
