I'm probably wrong but isnt that from March of the Wooden Soldiers? The cat and mouse look just like the ones in it

[–]McBadass 13 points14 points ago

I believe you're correct! I remember it as Babes in Toyland.

I haven't seen it in ages but I've been meaning to check it out again. I really enjoyed it as a kid.

[–]dizasterpiece114 2 points3 points ago

I watch it every year on Thanksgiving when it's on tv, my grandma first gave me a tape of it when I was about 3. The end of that movie is just so awesome!

[–]notsofast789 1 point2 points ago

Used to watch this with my grandfather when I was little. He died just over 2 years ago. Thanks for bringing back a great memory.

[–]rabaltera 1 point2 points ago

Ha! Our family watches this every Thanksgiving too! The boogeymen gave me the creeps when i was little. Its much funnier than I remembere...maybe its cause we're all drunk by the time we put it on

1934's March of the Wooden Soldiers, also known as Babes in Toyland. Starring the then-famous comedian duo Laurel and Hardy.

The mouse is a monkey in costume.

The source is the bowels of hell.

Omg!!! Babes In Toyland! I used to watch that with my grandma before she passed away. My fondest memory was her and me sharing homemade cookies and watching this before I would go to bed.

[–]jheins8807 1 point2 points ago

I opened this up while listening to the looney tunes theme song, it seemed to fit really well!

[–]eyeseayou[S] 0 points1 point ago

yeah, the mouse freaks me out..cant stop watchin tho

[–]supermotherbug 0 points1 point ago

My mom was my fourth grade teacher (really great teacher btw). She would show this to her class every year around Christmas (Catholic school). Laurel and Hardy always saved the day.

Babes In Toyland is creep city. Double bill with Tod Browning's Freaks and you'll never get to sleep.

Must be The Twiglight Zone!

DO YOU WANT TO NEVER SLEEP AGAIN?
