Toys come to life and encounter a hallucinating camel, a sentient taffy pit that eats itself, and a paranoid king who only grows big when torturing and humiliating other people. You know, a kids movie.

“Dennis Versus the Movies” month comes to an end with a really, really strange movie that Mary was obsessed with as a kid.

Starring Didi Conn, Mark Baker, Claire Williams, George S. Irving, Fred Stuthman, and Joe Silver. Written by Patricia Thackray and Mark Wilk. Directed by Richard Williams. Music by Joe Raposo.

From the newsletter: Dennis: The Raggedy Anne and Andy movie won me over eventually. I think I had seen the beginning and had turned it off as a kid, so I missed the trippy stuff once they left the house and those creepy twin dolls. Mary’s sister Anne asked us what the weirdest movie we’ve seen so far was. I said Liquid Sky, Mary said Eraserhead, but I think this one could be 3rd on the list. Babette conquering the pirates was a pretty cool twist. I was not expecting that from a 1970s kids movie.
