Subject: Thank goodness. I could have sworn that this had been a figment of my seven-year-old (at the time) imagination.



The year was 1982, friends, and this movie scared the hell out of me. Yes, I was a wussy girl, but the dang peg-leg tooth and the demon tooth decay... let's just say I would have appreciated the comic value of this film 11 years later, possibly with the help of some weed.



Oddly, I only remember the beginning of it. While it's possible that my young, traumatized mind blocked it out, it's also entirely possible that I got so freaked out that I was removed from the classroom.



Second grade also marked my first meeting with a psychiatrist. Take that any way you want to. :) - October 16, 2007Thank goodness.

Subject: Wigged-out!! If your idea of a good time involves a one-legged, plasticine tooth espousing the merits of good dental care, over a sountrack of fiddle-infused, acid wah-wah guitar, then is is probably the film for you! - June 29, 2007Wigged-out!!

Subject: You guys are never going to believe this... This is...the Holy Grail of internet finds for me. I was shown this movie as a 1st and 2nd grader while attending St. Claude Heights Grammar School in Chalmette, Louisiana during the years 1977 & 1978. Afterwards, long strips of pink/red tablets were torn into 3-packs and handed to the students. Chewing the tablets dissolved the material and then you could look in the mirror and "see" where cavities were likely to form.



Anyway, I've been using the Internet, not just computers, since 1989/1990, having gotten my first computer in 1982. I have been able to hunt down everything I've ever wanted on the Internet, from songs I heard only once on the radio but never forgot to television shows that only I seem to remember, etc.



This was the absolutely LAST thing I had not been able to track down from my childhood on the Internet. Until now. It is the single earliest memory of moving media. While it is, after all, just a campy video about the perils of tooth decay, it oddly represents something much more to me- a chance to watch a 10 minute film I saw 28 years ago but never forgot. A chance to take the earliest, vaguest memory as a child of a moving picture and re-watch it all these years later. - December 13, 2006You guys are never going to believe this...

Subject: Just DANDY to have around... Whoa! This is about the weirdest tooth decay movie I've seen. I would imagine that this film was too scary for the little ones it was aimed at; (the scenes where the villain attacks look pretty morbid when taken too seriously). But, the music and dance scenes totally make up for it.



I give this 5 stars, because the colors make me feel happy inside... - January 2, 2006Just DANDY to have around...

Subject: ripe for the parodying This film was produced by dentists to promote a balanced diet, however the fact that it hasn't (at least to my knowledge) been parodyed leads me to believe that it wasn't shown to very many people. This film has it all: a two faced villan (quite litteraly) a moral lesson and lots of songs. Actually the more apropriate word for the songs here would be "ditties" sure they do sing some of what could be considered songs in the first half, but in the second half it turns into this wierd "tell 'em and sing it back" mentality. One of the best parts is all the food groups dancing together it's just so quirky. A must see on this site. - March 27, 2005ripe for the parodying

Subject: Jack Skellington has nothing on Jack Sweet Holy crap they have breakbeats and hot bass lines on this soundtrack...rawk on!



Now, if my teeth have faces and mouths, then do my teeth have teeth, and so on? This leads me to believe that drugs would enhance the enjoyment of this film. - March 27, 2005Jack Skellington has nothing on Jack Sweet
