Customer Reviews of Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow
Will the Scarecrow Of Romney Marsh ride again??? What is Disney waiting on??? Ever since THE SCARECROW OF ROMNEY MARSH first aired on Disney back in the early 1960's I have remembered the sound of that screeching laugh and of course the Scarecrow song by Terry Gilkyson. The film was both scary and exciting all at the same time and made Halloween seem spookier than ever. The actors were chosen carefully as were the costumes, even the atmosphere of the film was perfectly eerie. No one could have played Dr. Syn as effectively as Patrick McGoohan did. He gave the part the contrast it needed between good and evil and all the gray area in between. THE SCARECROW OF ROMNEY MARSH is by far my favorite Disney film of all time. Other Disney films of a similar nature were THE MOONCUSSERS and THE LEGEND OF YOUNG DICK TURPIN. Disney Treasures should release these great films on DVD accompanied by the soundtracks.
McGoohan is magnificent!!
A much filmed story as Dr. Syn, Peter Cushing - Oliver Reed's version called Night Creatures are good, but this version done as a three part Disney production is outstanding. I saw this as a child and instantly fell in love with Patrick McGoohan, my first crush...lol, and have been a big fan ever since. It is a rousing tale of smuggling, of phantoms on the moor and outwitting the King's men. I have it on video, but would desperately love to see this one released on DVD.
It is a shame that Disney neglects the group of English based films they did in late 50's. There were some wonderful films such as Scarecrow that need release.
The Greatest Scary Movie for a Little Kid
I too was one of those that the Scarecrow gave nightmares to. It is a great movie about a great time in history whether it is true or not. I would love to see it again and that is why I put my order in in March, 2004. I want it. Please let Disney know.
