Happy Halloween to Tim Curry, this terrible '80s music video, and the unfathomably bad movie it's from.

Remember, folks: anything can happen on Halloween, so err on the safe side and gremlin-proof your cassettes if you live in or between London and Idaho.

We can make the Worst Witch popular and have a big fan base by word of mouth I hope we can spread the word of how perfect the worst witch is

my sweet summer children.,, meet the grand wizard

I heard recently that you can tell a lot about a person by the first movie they know Tim Curry from and I literally can’t stop thinking about it.

so say in the tags what’s the first movie you know Tim Curry from. Mines muppets treasure island

This weekend, I watched The Worst Witch, a 1986 made-for-TV film about a British boarding school for witches. I loved the movie overall, but one top tier treat in it was Tim Curry's musical number, "Anything Can Happen On Halloween."

"Media about magic schools only supports JK Rowling!" I don't know how to explain this to you but Rowling didn't invent the concept of magic schools and she certainly doesn't own it. Just to name a couple, A Wizard of Earthsea (1968) by Ursula K. Le Guin and The Worst Witch (1974) by Jill Murphy (adapted into a movie in 1986) both featured wizarding schools that Rowling was likely strongly influenced by.

If your response to any sort of magic school in media is to say that it's somehow benefiting Rowling, you are saying that she now owns a hugely popular trope that predates her by decades AT LEAST. Nobody gets to own ideas like that, but certainly not bigots.
