This movie came on a 10 movie kid pack that sold for $3. I didn't really expect much. The other movies were either public domain or obscure kids movies. But what I got, oh boy, was what I consider the bottom of the bottom of the barrel. This is like the Kids Bop of movies. (Seems to be) made by kids, for kids. Where do I begin? The "movie" (it's only 50 minutes long, thank goodness) is utter none sense. People may argue it's for kids, but I say even toddlers would find this irritating and awful.
The plot has no cohesion, it seems like a mess of times and places, and the conflict doesn't appear until the movie is half over. Not to mention, the musical numbers are awful. One called the bitter batter butter is the worst song I've ever heard in my life. One song has hands come out of the table and throw around pancakes and then a plate with a mouth devours them. The claymation used is just awful. I've seen better claymation in PSAs. And don't get me started on the villain. His name is Mr. Hoobody and he lives in the kid Nicholas' basement and follows him around. It's creepy. At the end, the kids start chanting "Boo Hoobody" until he falls off a bridge and evaporates into the water below. The entire story is a flashback told to Nicholas' kindergarten (who cheer "Boo Hoobody" in real life when Nicholas tells the bridge part).
All in all, this movie is nonsensical, stupid, bland, and irritatingly bad. And I call it now the absolute worst movie of all time (and my friends I showed it to agree, I'm an awful friend)!
