I love Victor Hugo.

I love classic stories of unrequited love and forbidden passions.

...I do NOT love them when accompanied by singing and dancing gargoyles.

REALLY do not love them.

What a classic! No other version of this has so well captured the atmosphere and tragedy of the 1939 film. Charles Laughton was a treasure.

Exactly my point, Tracy!  One of the best adaptations is Laughton's.  WHY DID WE NEED A KIDDIE VERSION???  WHY??!!

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
