Picking WC Fields as Scrooge was an absolutely genius idea because he had already played kind of a miser in his movies

So,ehat eas he?a vampire,?

I absolutely LOVE the song that plays between 7:03-7:56! It was later covered by English rock star Hank Marvin, but I wish there was a recording of THIS original in its entirety. Maybe someday...

Thank you for uploading this documentary.

I remember this documentary. Thank you for uploading this.

I remember watching this as a kid. Thank you for uploading this. R.I.P. Richard Kiley and the other souls shown in this video 😢.

lol

I wish we could get a Blu-ray release for this. Loved watching this on HBO as a kid.

just found this on CED for 22 cents lol

5:08 No Neil

I still love this movie.

I remember seeing this in 1982 and thinking it was the funniest thing ever, I've mentioned it to friends over the years and they all just thought i was nuts... been trying to find a copy of it forever!

Esta película la vi en México cuando yo tenía 8 años y jamás la olvidé llevaba, gracias por subirla aunque sea en inglés me da flojera repasar mi inglés

God I loved this movie as a kid I forgot about it entirely. Also a rare movie of that time was Treasure of the 4 Crowns

Thank you for post this! I will never forget my Dad taking me to see The Empire Strikes Back in 1980 or Return of the Jedi in 1983, but for the life of me I couldn't remember seeing Star Wars for the first time. Our house didn't have a VCR until 1986 but we had HBO. This finally explains it. :D

6:32 I never forgot seeing this clip of the javelin flying like a guided missal.

Wow memory lane! I remember watching this on HBO during the afternoon on summer break from school!❤

My impossible love❤ Marc Singer 💔 Love all his movies 😍

I'mma tell my grandkids Michael Scott wrote the script for this movie.

It's the McNamara boys!!

Ah memories. I have Superfuzz on VHS and DVD!

I love Red Skelton

I remember those HBO intros before the movie started with the spinning O. Watched it the early 80's

This was so traumatizing when I first watched it.

Simon Booth

I recall watching Red at my grandparents. Some of the only "non Christian" VHS they had. I still have a box set of Red Skelton on VHS. It was a different world then.

I felt sorry for Molly when she revealed to Freddie that she has no son and was only pretending! It was her way of coping with loneliness on Christmas! 😢

This is like a live action version of family guy with a slasher movie twist

4:27 - this was always more hilarious because the music in the background was also used in a toy commercial in the early 80s. I just don't remember what it was... I want to say something Fischer-Price but I don't remember...

President Trump 2024!! Save America

I watched this one Christmas while my Grandmother made Christmas dinner. This was my best Christmas I remember! I miss the old days before wokeness!! NY is taking down Statues of George Washington?? The End is near thanks to joe bidum and his leftist pack of Godless heathens!!

Beautiful story... thank you ❤

Love this movie

3:35 “What you are about to witness is real. The participants are not actors. They are the actual people who have already either filed suit or been served a summons to appear in a California Municipal Court. Both parties in the suit have agreed to dismiss their court cases, and have their disputes settled here …. in our forum. The People’s Court”.

I miss that HBO intro so much! It had been forever, since I watched it. Thanks so much for the upload!

I saw this movie Every time HBO showed It. I bet I saw this same viewing!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

The rotoscope /animation/whatever video of the movie intro brings back my memories of HBO....like when my parents didn't pay the bill and the channel was scrambled. 😉

Entheos brought me.

Entheos sent me. Exit Ramps Closed! God wins!

Entheos shines sent me.

The scene where he figures out the color is excellent. So vivid in my childhood memories.

Would you happen to have a recording of HBO's What on Earth? which aired around 1981-82? I'm not interested in fully episodes, just the animated intro and the part where Orson Bean introduces himself. Maybe you can post that to KZbin or I can give my email address to send it? Please let me know.
